 | when you shut down the comp and you hear the fan running does the power led lights still on? or just the fan on? and which fan is it? |
| | Aside from restoring the factory settings in the BIOS make sure to delete the event logs too. Take out the battery and unplugging the ac adapter and hold the power button for about 10 secs to drain the flea power on the board. |

| | Hi there! Have you tried checking the bios if your hard drive and cdrom drive are detected? Try loading the default settings as well see if that helps? Let me know what happens Goodluck  |
| | Try removing the memory modules and power on with your battery alone or ac adapter. If you can swap a known good battery that can isolate things more. Is the AC adapter LED light solid by the way? Good luck  |
| | You can also try reinstalling the whole thing with the operating system cd, I am assuming you have another pc that has access to the internet in case you don't have your drivers cd with you. |
| | Easier way to do it is install another windows in that same hard drive. Parallel install. But do NOT format the drive. After you have salvaged your files reinstall the whole thing clean Good luck |
| | Hi there! First we need to know more. Is this a desktop or a laptop? Are there other things you can provide us like make and model of your computer? THanks |
| | Hi There, Try removing batteries and unplugging ac adapter, press and hold the power button for approx. 10 sec. Pluc AC adapter see if anything will happen. But if this still wont power up, most probably this is a dead mobo. I do suggest you try a different battery though … |
| | Once you hook up your external monitor it should show something already while you are loading your machine. Perhaps the lights that you are seeing from the cracked screen is coming from the back light of the lcd. I know Dell has built in diagnostics, you can try holding Fn … |
| | Hi there, another option you can try is by purchasing an external hard drive enclosure and using that disk as an external drive to a working computer. Good luck |
| | Hi There, Recommending a system is really easy to do, but the easiest way to run a draft is to provide us with a budget and what exactly this system will be used for. Because you have good bang for the buck systems at all price points. good luck! |
| | Hi there! I would start by checking your memory modules with memory stability software. Since you've opened the side panel already, how many memory modules do you have? If you have more than one try running your computer with one memory module and see if you'll get the same blue … |
| | Re: dust free case? well compressed air is real good. but be wary though about the temperature difference in the ambient temp. the air coming out of the can might be colder and *might* form condensation. well me i need good case ventilation because i use my comp for long hours. it usually gets …  |

| | hi, im underclocking my como because i leave it overnight to run small programs, downloading primarily. well i decided to underclock it since i dont need the ghz and all. and im thinking that underclocking will lessen the temp on the cpu, well it did by 9 celcius. im jsut … |
| | well 300 watts of what brand that is? some cheap power supplies claim they are 300 watts but they are really not. i guess with antec 400 watts or better would be good. if you have a new video card that will eat more power. pair it with a couple …  |
| | Re: fan positions i think thats good:) im running my cpu at full loads at 54c .... and oh just a thought.... i see your using negative pressure.... imho put filters on your intakes and seal small holes in your case:) with negative air pressure dust will surely accumulate. |
| | you might want to plug the ide cable tightly. jsut an idea though |
 | im not advertising but antec psus are really good and reliable i think for an avergae user 350 watts is good. but if you ahve new componetns or many components installed it is always better to have a high capacity psu. |
| | do you know the make of your hard drive? if so you can get a cd to diagnos your hard drive. this is one way to pinpoint your problem. |
| | thats it most probably...but in some cases system fan is where the northbridge fan gets its powe. 3 pin. and intakes on the front and exhaust on the top or the back. with neat wires i think your case will have good airflow... and dont forget to use filters. dust … |

 | Re: Overclocking? well yeah it surely is fun and you get to push your comp to the limits. but hey pls be reminded of the consequences:) well enjoy! |
| | yes in deed depending on what price you can have it and what you will be using it for. i think if you can get 2500+ bartons cpres they are still a good bang for the buck |
