Sounds like that to me. What do others think?

If you changed motherboards but used the same CPU & RAM as before, isn't it likely that there's a problem here? Most likely the CPU which glitched when you powered off ungracefully. Or have I read you wrong? New components throughout should have worked.

You could get the computer to re-detect your optical drive. I'm assuming that it definitely doesn't show up in [I]Device Manager[/I]. So you would do [I]Control Panel/Add Hardware --> Next --> Search for & Install the hardware automatica\lly (Recommended)[/I] If that doesn't work you could try and install by selecting …

This is the trojan: winjgf32.dll

Yes - the monitor is adjusting refresh rate from VGA to whatever setting the now available Registry tells the driver. Nothing wrong; nothing to repair. My main monitor (LCD) does this.

I see what you mean. RIP.

HDD won't prevent POST. Your approach is sound and on what you've said so far, I'd suspect memory. If I've understood you correctly, replaced (different) RAM works OK, original RAM doesn't. Is that what you meant?

There could be any of (at least) three reasons for this in likely order of probability: 1/ There is a trojan that is corrupting memory. Scan using Anti-Malwarebytes. 2/ There is a memory conflict with a driver or something that has become located in an area that IE wants to …

get the computer back to its previous state. i.e. RAM and CD burner. Take everything new away and see what happens. The variety of BSOD errors indicates a RAM problem to me but it could be driver conflict (though in this case I regard it as unlikely).

I'd buy the virus theory - or the wrong driver in the splipstream disk. Anti-malwarebytes would flush this out. When you're sure there's no virus issue, a reload of drivers would remove suspicion of a corruption there. Have youy tried the slipstream disk on at least one more of your …

Not enough info. "did a restart" - what's that? On booting, is there anything on the screen before the J/ Any disk light flashing to indicate disk activity?

[QUOTE=jccaldz;979120]Hi there, looks like the memory was not properly fitted.[/QUOTE] Justify this statement, please. In detail, please.

A lot more information than this is required to help ypu.

I've successfully installed these updates. I doubt that your MBR could be corrupted by a Windows update. I suspect that something else has happened, like a mains glitch furing shit down or something like that. The Windows recovery disk should enable you to FIXMBR because it doesn't need the boot …

I might be a bit thick today but your opening sentence doesn't make sense to me. Share a wi-fi connection ... to a computer running Windows 7 via USB? WiFi or USB?

Did you read & follow up this: [url]http://www.appdeploy.com/msierrors/detail.asp?id=103[/url] It suggests the following action: ------------------------------------------------------ RESOLUTION 1. Quit all Windows programs. 2. Click Start and then click Run. 3. In the Open box, type Regedt32.exe and then click OK. 4. Select the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE on Local Machine window. 5. Locate and select …

... after all these discoveries, you should by now have reached the conclusion that FireFox can be safely dumped. I really hate FF because of its peculiarities.

When this happened to me: 1. I had to have the mobo, RAM, PSU and 1 HDD replaced 2. I installed an APC Uninterruptible PSU! A power outage can glitch and destroy just about anything on an unprotected PC.

[QUOTE=cbulock;960733]No, it can't be installed. 32-bit software can run on a 64-bit CPU (with the case of x86-64 CPUs), but not the other way around. The 32-bit processor won't be able to understand the 64-bit instructions.[/QUOTE] I would confirm this.

Does the laptop work wired?

What graphics card for a laptop? I think that Rik missed that point. You'll only need more RAM if your applications cause a lot of paging or RIRO.

I think we need more information from you. Which DVD viewing software are you using? What options have you set in the DVD viewing software?

Nah - nothing to do with a program that demands resources. Are the fans running and not blocked? i.e. is the PC overheating, perhaps? Might there be a metal chad that expands with heat, shorts, and then contracts after cooling? That sort of thing.

Perhaps you could take a look in Control Panel/Device Manager/Display adapters. Let us know the devices listed in there. I've seen cases where a so called "Mirror Adapter" appears in the list. This is an outside chance in your case but surprises happen as you've found out.

If my SE PDA phone is anything togo by, the first thing that happens is that the software goes to 3G/GPRS to locate you relative to their nearest mast. Then the satellites are picked up and the correct location jump is made. In that way, if you lose satellite visibility, …

Difficult to diagnose at a distance. But might there be a power supply problem? Fans can run, disks can whirr but if the power loom to the mobo isn't propperly fed, then anything can happen.

It could be that the membrane under the Control Key is jammed. In the past when I've had a sticky key, a quick punch onto the key frees it. Otherwise prise the key off, (left & right) and with a cloth moistened with spirit (Vodka will do) and clean away …

.... also what was the piece of software that failed? The blue screen message usually contains this just below the error code. .... and you haven't told us if this is a problem you are continually facing ....

Rik means CPU usage rather than memory. What would I do? 1. What Rik suggested 2. Clean the mouse's optical sensor 3. Attach a USB or PS2 mouse & see what happens

Did you download the Vista driver? Should work. [url]http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0000465.asp[/url] Otherwise basic scanner functions should work with standard Twain drivers. Does the system recognise the presence of your scanner?

Also nice Tweaker @ WinVistaClub

I think you've got all the swap around angles covered so that you can eventually narrow it down to either the card or the mobo. If it's not the card, I wouldn't p*ss around with the mobo if you're not happy with fine soldering. It could well be a dry …

Are you sure that the computer is properly switched off? If it isn't, the disk could glitch nd it will be checked on boot up because shutdown was not complete.

When you boot, POST checks everything and compares with the CMOS. A checksum error usually means that CMOS is not in a state of grace and it should be shirted to clear it and then BIOS can repopulate it. If that's not the problem, diagnosing at this distance from what …

Is this a Blue Screen Error? Could we have as much error text as possible please?

I've had something similar once after a power glitch. (That won't happen again!). The RAM, motherboard and hard drive needed to be replaced (on a PC). On a laptop, I'd still guess that you've got a hard failure. You haven't got past the Boot ROM BIOS. So it can't pull …

You'd know if the machine had booted by reason of the HDD activity. It should show activity for a couple of minutes during boot and then die down. My guess is that it isn't booting although I would have expected at least the boot screeb to have shown. So, at …

Have you tried any of the network repair tools? Can you perhaps post an IPCONFIG /ALL results display?

I thought that posting my experience just now might be helpful to others. Yesterday (25-Aug-2009) my Outlook 2007 was working perfectly. I had downloaded & installed Outlook Connector 12.1 because I'd received an e-mail from Microsoft to say that the DAV protocol used for HTTP mail would be withdrawn on …

You could just PASTE and in word remove the grid lines from the table created by the paste. (As in Borders None)

Maybe your INBOX is inside your Personal Folders and not whwre you think it is.

First, consider trying another keyboard in case there is some stuck/sticky membranes like Al & Tab. The next thing occurring to me would be to scan for malware. The best tool for this is AntiMalwareBytes software - download location is in the Virus/Spyware forum. Get that one out of the …

The acid test is to put a controlled device/PC onto that router and see if it behaves the same as the others. Then it's an external problem (Router, ISP or telco). It's entirely possible for malware to hit two machines. I won't bother explaining why - it's highly obvious.

Dell do a monitor stand that interfaces with the D-Dock.

You can have unbalanced RAM but the performance will be less than having it balanced. However, 1.5GB performance unbalanced will be usually be better than 1GB balanced.
