[QUOTE=pabs31;299882]In my experience with these type of errors that usually means that you Hard Drive has crashed and is now unusable so the only thing you can try is to try and format and reinstall but if this does not work then you will have to purchase a new Hard …

This is a very basic way to make a delay that someone new to VB might be able to use.

You wouldn't believe that this desktop is over a year old by just looking at it. I keep the icons hidden and the icon tray clean. I can't sit stand sitting down to a messy computer.

I've been having about the same probelem as everybody else. I recently rebuilt my Dell Dimmension 4600 case. I didn't like the plasticy look so I hand carved a wooden one. When I was testing it, I noticed that the processer fan bearings were going out. It sounded like an …

You probably won't be able to recover anything if the chip inside the drive was damaged, but there is a (very) slim chance you might be able to return the drive for a replacement.

Try downloading and installing the latest drivers and software for your DVD writer. Be sure to completely uninstall the old drivers. You may want to do the same for the motherboard/IDE controller if the above doesn't work.

I recently received an Acer Aspire 5100 laptop with a Hard Drive Failure post (fixed disk 0 failure). I immediately assumed the hard drive wasn't plugged in securely or it had failed. I proceeded to swap the drive out and test the old hard drive in another computer. It turns …

I probably would not buy a PSP just because I never was much of a console gamer [the newest console I have is N64] because a laptop, or a even a desktop, (in my opinion) can do so much more than a $200+ dollar box and 20 $20 to $70 …

Power supplies can be tricky business and usually can't be fixed, but if you're feeling lucky get the screwdriver. My guess is that during shipping either the fuse inside the PSU came loose or the motherboard plug wasn't making full contact. First you would want to see if you could …

RAM: You might want to clean the contacts on the ram and the motherboard. See if that helps. If not, you might need new ram. Modem: If you can, remove the modem then uninstall the modem software/drivers. Reboot then reinstall and connect modem.

Hello and Hapy Thanksgiving! I've recently set up an old Compaq Deskpro 2000 as a web server. I'm running Damn Small Linux and Apache 2.0.54. Everything works perfect except for one small thing—Apache doesn't start with the system. Does anyone know how to setup Apache to startup when the system …

I'm using firefox beta 2. Works perfect. Why do people automatically assume firefox is to blame when something goes wrong? *edit* I'm probably going to get flamed for saying that. Most of the time, the best job is done by yourself. I'm never going to Jiffy Lube.

[QUOTE=alc6379]Just a quick note: You can open a Dell system and not void your warranty. Just be prepared to remove any device from your Dell system that it didn't ship with if you ever need to call them to troubleshoot.[/QUOTE] Removing every device from my system is far easier said …

You most likely lost a driver in the format. I don’t know if linksys requires this, but be aware that some cards must be taken out of the computer before installing the drivers/software. I may be wrong about your card, but it’s best to make sure and possibly save some …

I've been using Firefox for quite some time now. I based my decision to use Firefox on stability, security, and usability (tabbed browsing). Firefox has in the past and continues to own other popular browsers in security and usability. My only complaint is that very little happened in the upgrade …

killcrazyfrog, Good job. I think that annoying frog is dead now. lol Very cool

This might be a 'lame' idea, but I saw a computer on a commercial for an antivirus software that had parasites, worms, bugs, etc... crawling out of and all over it. I duno, that's kind of a hard thing to think up; a funny/scary computer costume.

I'm not familiar with Hijack This!, but I may be able to help you. I used to use McAfee Security, but I noticed some of the same probelms your having were happening to me. Slowing down, errors, applications not starting until shutdown, and other symptoms that my computer was being …

I would just try unistalling and reinstalling internet explorer. If you have data in internet explorer and don't want to loose (addons, plugins.....) you might not want to take a chance of loosing it by reinstalling. You could try what chrisbliss18 said: [QUOTE]Try one of these two guides to reinstall …

[SIZE=2][FONT=Comic Sans MS]DaniWeb has been very helpful and has saved some programs I was ready to give up on. THANKS DANI :D [/FONT][/SIZE]

I use firefox as much as possable becuase it is faster at loading pages than IE and it has to deal with fewer security threats than IE however, it does have a down side: firefox can be hard on a slower computers processer. The only time I don't use firefox …

I had a similar problem when I set up my network. It turned out that after 8 hours of trouble shooting that the firewall had been blocking every bit of data that went between the computers. The connection showed up as a healthy and fast, but like you said, no …

I think that's good advice to let someone qualified install one because the last thing you want is a water-cooling system leaking on all your expensive hardware.

Check to see if the vanes are nicked on the leading edge; I had an old computer that one of the vanes on the case fan had gotten nicked fairly bad by something being stuck in it by a previous owner. This caused the case to shake and sound like …

I think advertising for a company that has provided a good service to you is fine IF and ONLY IF you are advertising for a good reason (not to make the comany profit but to help someone). Example: Someone is having sleep problems, so you might recomend a sleep medicine …

I checked out a book from the library called "Begining Programing for Dummies". I recommend this book because it goes over alot on the Liberty Basic program and its commands, variables, etc... etc... If you check it out you might like it and then again you might not.
