Be sure to remember to always change the default admin password.

Try some things. Boot to safe mode and see if the mouse acts ok. If it does something else is interfering with your mouse (software or hardware)

The manufacturer of the PC you have might not have updated drivers for Vista EG; HP, Dell, eMachines but the actual vendor that makes the GPU (Intel, VIA, SIS, Nvida, ATI-AMD) might have updated video driver for Vista on [I]that[/I] respective site.

Yes this could very well be a PSU going bad.

I would go with the above potential power supply issue over ram. He listed 2 GB of ram - pratically no VM is needed. Maybe a very small swap file but that's it.

You didn't mention that you disabled onboard video in the bios you might check that, and there are some HP-Compaq, Enachines etc... (OEM computers) that 'auto' disable. Sounds like yours needs it disabled in the bios. 400W is more than enough for a 9250 BTW. Also check that the new …

Hi. Downloads for you model are here. [url]http://support.packardbell.com/uk/item/?m=home&pn=PB13108701[/url] [url]http://support.packardbell.com/uk/item/index.php?i=6943480000&ppn=PB13108701[/url]

Sounds like you need a new keyboard, and I would repost this in the security section if you want them yo help you with a HJT log and have the moderator possibly delete this post. Good luck :)

Try testing another mouse. Also make sure the mouse drivers specifically for that particular mouse and OS are correctly loaded. Additionally when you say you loaded a "fresh copy" of XP you may need to make sure very specific motherboard-chipset and video cards drivers are properly installed (the latest for …

You may need to find out if there is an advanced power saving mode enabled on the laptop (as many laptops have) in software or done in the bios. Contact Compaq about it if you can.

Maybe. It could also be a power supply issue with your +12v not giving you enough juice to run the card. If you have a very weak 250-300W power supply (or a very cheaply made unit) with a very weak +12v it could give you issue like that, and it …

Sounds like your memory just went bad on the R9800. It could also be that the fan simply needs to be re-seated and some new thermal grease applied. Over time many a R9700-R9800 loses good contact between the GPU chip and fan. If it turns out out that the card …

Hi Gelnshiro. A couple of things for you to consider. 1. Is this only 'recent" behavior 2.

If you have and AMD socket 754-939 system you can easily transition to a PCIe motherboard and open yourself up to a much wider array of video cards -- that way you can have a vast choice of cards thats SM3 capable and later DX10 capability instead of getting stuck …

GPU fan was likely - simply knocked off kilter.

For better image quality go for an ATI/Sapphire X1600/1650XT - but honestly since the 7600GT will also be future compliant with HDCP content (7600GS isn't) try for that card first and see if you like it if not go for an X1650XT. BTW with 1024*768 being teh usual native resolution …

Good response and true - make sure you disable any integrated (IGP) in the bios and remove traces-remnants-applets of any previous drivers that you were running in the add/remove section then try reinstalling an updated driver for your new card. If you're using a high end nVIDA 7800-7900 class card, …

My degree is in CIS with programming, but i found programming a beat down. Totally. For me anyway it was zero fun and so far removed from anything that means something - which for me it meant i needed toget into something different which ended up being IT security which …

Alternatively you can just hit the win(start)/r key on the keyboard at the same time. Nice tip.

And, when you uninstall WMP11 you will still need to mauanlly remove the base WMP folder in program files, then install 10 again.

Well, if you primary concern is gaming you should go Intel as Intel just recently released the Core2 Duo and it totally wipes the floor with AMD's X2's and FX series, and eats the older P4D's and E's for lunch. That said, if you really need to go AMD then …

Yes it should work ok, but you will have to manaully download motherboard drivers, audio, and SATA drivers (probably), and video card drivers. Windows will load with older windows default drivers once the OS is loaded but you would need to find out what motherboard chipset you have and get …

Reinstall your motherboard drivers and direct-X.

You can install coolbits II. get it @ Guru3D, but as the above poster said do it at your own risk - if you don't know how to do it you really can [U] easily[/U] fry your card. However, adjusting AGP apeture has nothing to do with being able to …

Right click on my/comp/properties/advanced/startup&recovery/settings. Uncheck "automatically restart". Also go into your 7600GT properties/troubleshoot tab and uncheck "enable write combining". If you still have freezing issues try pulling one of your stick of memory and see if you can narrow it down to a bad stick.

I would have the HJT team here in the spyware section look at your system to make sure it's cmean and do some routine windows maintenance - looking at startup programs, running services, driver versions, device manager conflicts, and post at HJT log just to be sure about not having …

[QUOTE=goldeagle2005]For SATA disks, you need to load the drivers which come with the motherboard. when setup is loading, watch for the prompt that says 'press f6 to install a third party SCSI/RAID driver'.

And it's stable lol. If so and it's an A643000 you're lucky :cheesy:

In the device manager it says USB drivers are installed correctly - being as you need XP SP2 do do this?

Actually you could have a fake mobo - aftermarket copy (not really Asus). Send Asus an email about your situation with mobo serial numbers and see what they say.

Ram is DDR :)

Probably - yes you may need to replace it, if in fact you know for sure that the slots are damaged physically.

I reccommend a PSU like this one for any crossfire or SLI system. [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103931[/url]

Sirkamran32 you need to start your own threads and try not to double post th same issues.

Even though you may have a VIA based motherboard in that emachine it may not be using a VIA audio controller. Go into the device manager and look in the audio properties to see what CMI (c-media) controller your board uses. You may need to download a CMI AC97 driver …

Use 9.8 MMC ( slighly older mutlimedia center) with catalyst 6.5 drivers see if that works for you. Make sure to install the WDM package.

If I were you I would first try reinstalling your ATI drivers and direct-X. If it's still the same try that card in another PC if at all possible and if it's ok on that PC then you may have an issue in with your Dell. The card could be …

Try booing it up in safe mode and see if it still goes to black screen.
