| | Unless I'm missing something here... All you have to do is turn the PC off. Either with the switch on the front, or a switch on the back (if there is one), or even unplug the PC from the wall. On the next bootup, if you still have a prob …  |
 | Lots of stuff can cause random reboots. Since you've just did a fresh install of XP, that means a lot of things are suspect - not just the vid card. Go into BIOS and disable ACPI (or whatever the Power Management is called in your BIOS version - like APM?). …  |

| | Some things to try: 1. unplug the speakers from the back of the PC, and plug in a set of headphones. See if you still get the noise. If not, then the speakers are the prob. 2. Check Device Manager to see if it says your sound card is working … |
| | Just wondering if it is safe to insert/un-insert those PCMCIA cards on a Notebook while it is running? I know on a desktop it's not advisable to plug/unplug anything (except USB) while PC is on. Notebook is a brand new Toshiba (don't know model). Thanks, Donk Free Technical Support Webring … |
