open up a console and cd to the dir where the rpm is (you MUST be root) type [B]rpm –Uvh packagename[/B] replace packagename with the name of the rpm of course - command IS case-sensitive

nearly all ATI cards can be overlcoked using ATITOOL but dont overclock unless you are sure you can add extracooling to it or else it will melt

what sort is it?

the cpu is too slow. Under 600mhz barely runs xp. Turn off the wallpaper (plain color) - also turn off the welcome screen and use the old style win2k theme - this should save cpu power

depends if the app takes advantage if it. E,g apps which were made before Core Duo will only see one crummy 2.5ghz cpu but if there are designed to take advantage if it then there is huge increase in performance compared to a standard cpu

did you empty the recycle bin?

1. empty the quarantine/virus vault in AVG 2. empty the recyle bins of all users Try scan again and post new log

my ISP gave me 5meg of plain HTML and i got annoyed so host my own now

thats cos u can only upgrade to ultimate from XP Pro

Hello bill. I hope you enjpy this site. Welcome to daniweb! EDIT: wow i posted at the exact same time as csgal - she didnt show up till i clicked it

Hello. Welcome to daniweb. Hope you enjoy it here

post wat uve done so far and ill explain many to many

i think he means the actual OS

You need to be running an ASP.NET web server to see the page properlyy. Either IIS (noy in xp home) or Abyss Web Server X1(free)

yeah it sounds like its overhating. My thinkpad does this

your vista problem. Do you mean booting from the cd? Go into the BIOS and make shure CD is first (on some pcs you can hit f12 and choose a one-off boot device)

indeed, does that make us "haxx0rs"? (i hate leet i think it is a stuipid language really and that obviously AIM was not written by noobs as it seems to be working just fine for thousands of people)

wow so it went A,B,C,D assembler, bliss, c, cool!

yeah and beware of download sites - read the reviews first

its almost impossible to replace a laptop fan yourself and dismantling a laptop is very hard (well, not as hard as getting it all back together again!) i got a thinkpad. It does the same thing

try hitting f8 repeatedly on bootup and choosing safe mode

sounds like the motherboard is fried

as soon as the PC starts up hammer f8 repeatedly until you get to a screen with options. Choose safe mode then "Administrator" at the login screen. Then when logged in as the superadministrator, remove the password

well u do know that only certian cpus, ram and motherbopard combos work together right? that means you are fairly limited. I recently got a barebones PC from here. PSU, case, AMD dual corer CPU, gig of ram and SLI motherboard for under £50 ($700?) - all assembled. I just …

welcome to daniweb! (heres some reputation points to get u started)

yeah sounds like spyware. i had someone doing remote desktop on me with similar effects

the battery has died. just like laptop and pda ones, the battery wears out after a cerain number of charge/discharge cycles. Apple ipod batteries are soldered in so you cant replace it yourself that easialy (there are kits but you will most likely destroy your ipod if you dont do …

i did something like that in VB.NET using classes in order to work out atomic mass, moles of reactants, volume of gas and concentration (im a chemistry student)

ive never heard of them. Stay away from unknown ones as there usually poor quality and the manuals are usually in either not there or in japanese :)

well i live in the uk and get all my cases off of [URL="http://www.Novatech.com"]www.Novatech.com[/URL] maybe the US has someting like that?

its not the speakers that matter. its your soundcard. Do you know what soundcard you have? (chances are that its built into your motherboard) - you will need to find a vista compatible driver for it or MAYBE get a BIOS update (this did the trick for my dell)

did you know cisco own linksys? i like linksys......

dont convert it if you have another OS on that drive

you just need to push it on. On my thinkpad the key kinda pushes and slides at an angle

youve probably already lost them

i assume so as you can definately use SCSI and IDE and i know for afact my new SATA dell comes with built in RAID

that doesnt clear the cmos due to the bios battery

I did a nethack type game lin VB using an array and pictureboxes but thats not a particualy good idea for a serious game

heres something else that happened to me (spoke to dani about it - reinstall of xp fixed it)

yes or maybe you have overheated the cpu? i killed a self-built pc of my own. Those dual cores need huge amounts of cooling

dont get it here in the uk for ages ours are like 70% more expenisve for yours BTW when XP home support ends what the hell are we all gonna do if we need to reinstall it and the product activation server no longer exists?

6 series runs games 7 series runs them well

tesco sucks. Its like 256k

be more specific please do you have a cordless phone? do you get a good dignal?

i got a d5150 and it has similar problems - cant find the cd (although hdd is ok) - turned out to be loose connection and crap wires maybe the BIOS battery has died?

sounds like the PSU yeah - maybe your draining too much power from it? i only got a 200w psu and then i installed a new graphics card and it had a similar problem (the card was using all the juice)

same no more snow today :( college was close thrusday due to it tho :)

what sort of website is it and how popular do you expect it to be, is there much competition?

what day is valentines day again? - the 14th or 16th? my birthday is the 15th

bad drivers or overheating CPU/RAM/Graphics Card is what id usually say but the flashing lights indocate a bad mobo. Are there any leaking capacitators in it?
