Yes you could do that, but if that doesn't work I believe that you can fix XP with the XP installation CD. You may also be able to copy the file from CD. There was a previous post like this [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread161067.html"]Here[/URL]. Here is [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread106481.html"]another[/URL].

So the screen never comes on? No boot up messages then? I would try another display if you have one.

If your after installing a new graphics card it is simple. Put the new one in plug the display into the new card and boot it up. The computer detects the new card and uses that one. Then install the drivers for it. No need to disable or remove the …

I think the curly brackets don't add up correctly you maybe missing some. I would suggest indenting your code properley to make it more readable. eg [CODE]while(something) [INDENT]{[/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT]if(somethingelse)[/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]{[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]do something[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]}[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]}[/INDENT][/CODE] Without the extra lines in between.

Try your old stick, then try the new one by itself, if this works try them both in different orders. Or have you done this already?

I believe you have to set the wireless router up as a bridge, does the wireless router not have any ethernet connections? What you should be able to do is replace the wired router with the wireless one. If you are using a wireless router don't forget to put a …

I think hard drives store data across the hard drive with no concern to storing from center to edge. If your using XP go to disk defragmentation and you will most likely see files or part of files stored across the disk. If files were stored sequentially every time a …

You could also encrypt the partitions using TrueCrypt as well. So if an average user gets a hold of your PC they can't read your hard drive even if they take it out.

I assume your using Vista? What graphics card are you using? I am thinking that the laptop isn't setup properly. You should be able to configure monitors with whatever program is used with your graphics card. You can appropriately number your monitors, set up resolutions etc...

maybe this will work [URL="http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm"]http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm[/URL] its for Xp but may work for Vista, back up your registry before making changes. Or you cold try repairing Vista with the installation CD or maybe a system restore partition.

Assuming there is no protection on the DVD you could just right click on the icon and copy the folders and files to hard disk. Or you could create an image of the disk using something like imgburn.

Are you thinking of installing or buying and then installing? You can check any system requirements from whoever you buy it off or check Nvidia. As far as you processor concerns I have a Nvidia 8600GT 1GB and my processor is AMD Athon 3800 and mine runs fine. Most likely …

There shouldn't be any problem for XP I would not even think about installing Vista on it. What are the system specs? You may be able to dual boot XP and 98.

Maybe the screen has gone. Can you get hold of a VGA cable to connect your laptop to a monitor? Even if the screen is gone the rest of the laptop may work fine; at least this way you can test to see if anything else is wrong.

First, does your laptop detect your CD drive? If yes have you got the CD drive at a higher boot postion. If no then you may want to use an external one. I think XP may be corrupted try repairing it using the XP CD. If none of our suggestions …

I don't think you will be able to use both these graphics cards at the same time. You need two of the same graphics cards that support SLI or Crossfire. You can buy them in sets of two that will work together; your motherboard must support it though. Try reading …

How new is it? Do you have the product name and number? I would ask for help from HP. You can look up your product number to see if the issue is known; they may have a solution.

What connections do you need? for example DVI for laptop, composite for XBOX360 and scart for cable. Look for these connections when buying the TV. You should be able to 'flick' through these by changing the 'source' with a button on the remote or TV.

Looking at it I would have to say that it doesn't look like you can wall mount it; There doesn't appear to be any place to attach a wall mount. I would suggest emailing them though, if they don't know, don't buy it.
