Check the system temperature. Post those values here and we'll go from there

format the email using HTML and not plain text. I dont use thunderbird, so i cant help youwith specifics. I coul give you directions for outlook express if you so wish.

I've seen spme Windows 98 drivers work on Windows 95. You could try your luck with the Windows 98 drivers.

I [I]hope[/I] the thing is morphed...

You sure the cd rom lens isnt dirty? No comments about the hard drive

[QUOTE=firoz]I have windows xp home and my pc is very slow and it always giving not responding error[/QUOTE] We need more info to help you out. Also, start a new thread for your queries.

When in safe mode, uninstall your display drivers and then reboot normally. If windows loads up properly now, you need to obtain updated drivers for your display adapter.

I think youre right. Did you try resetting the CMOS? If this didnt help, well, yeah, the board could be toast.

remember though: too much thermal paste is as bad as no thermal paste, and messier too.

[QUOTE=Comatose]No, it's not a windows thing I can tell you that (if it is, it's a service disabled on my XP Home box). I think it has to do with your video card drivers or software.[/QUOTE] I agree it's not a windows feature. Such options are provided by the manufacturer …

I think it's more lkely a problem with the app you use to view the database. You could ask your Sys Admin to repair/reinstall the app.

Simply hilarious......cant stop laughing. People are staring at me.

The Matrix may be a great topic theoretically, but practically speaking, I think there are just way too many barriers for it to happen, at least in the near future. For one, Establishing a fast link that stays up 24/7/365 is an issue plaguing us today. Then, making sure the …

did you try the sony website? how abt customer support?

There really is no way to be sure without testing the processor on a known working board. Similarly, check the board with a known working processor.

The fact that it recognises CDs but not DVDs points to a problem with the pick-up mechanism. If the laptop is under warranty, send it back to gateway for a replacement. If not, send the drive in for repair.

Check the power and data connections. You can verify the power cable's plugged in if the drive's LED blinks when you switch on your computer or reboot your computer. As for the data cable, just make sure both ends are plugged in securely. If that doesnt help, try swapping the …

You need to visit the webste of the vendor who made your board. Diff vendors have diff BIOS flash files, so you cant use a generic BIOS upgrade to flash your BIOS. FYI, I suggest you flash the BIOS only if your system is facing some problems which are known …

Well, it depends . Does your board support RAM in Dual channel mode? If yes, get two [I]identical[/I] sticks of 400MHz. Preferably matched pairs from Corsair or Kingston. If your board doesn't support Dual Channel, I'd still recommend 2 sticks simply because if one of your ram sticks goes bad, …

Actually, the MSI CD does come with the sound drivers. Use the MSI autorun facility to install the drivers. It's the most painless way of driver installation.

Connect this new HD on another computer and recreate the partitions from within Windows.

Have you tried the cryogenic way of recovering data off of a dead hard drive? Check this: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread9069.html[/url]

Crysis requires DX10. So im guessing it wont run on any other OS til' MS releases DX10 for XP and the like...

Try prying the key with a pin. If this doesn't help, well, you could invest in a new keyboard. They're really cheap these days.

Yeah. Reformat the hard drive and then install XP.

yeah, but id recommend that if you dont use or plan to use floppies, disable the controller from the BIOS and save on some IRQs.

Hey all Just a note to tell you all that I've completed my engineering degree (results to be declared in a couple of weeks time). Feels so good to be a graduate. Am prepping up my resume right now. Will post it when it's done.

A 2002 Hyundai Santro. Compact, maneuverable, comfortable, great mileage (16 kilometers per litre) and a great AC system. Ofcourse, the Sony CD System packs a wallop too.

My favorite has to be: "Newbie, if the next two words out of your mouth aren't 'See ya' then the third word will be 'Oh my god. My crotch. You've punched me in my crotch.'."

I've noticed changing the Windows XP boot screen makes a few tabs from System properties to vabish. It's ot a good idea to change the boot screen. As for the BIOS, if you mess it up while modifying the flash rom, you could fry your 'puter.

Is your IP pool (for DHCP) in the same subnet as the gateway?

If you only have 2 computers, assign each of them different static IP addresses. This will take care of your issues.

Your router is taking too long to assign your Desktop an IP address. If you're only using 2 PCs, I suggest you change your IP address to a Static IP address. That way, you won't have to wait while your router assigns an IP address.

Ive noticed that this problem does occur when using an optical mouse (im usng MS Basic Optical Mouse). However, when this proglem ocuurs, all I do is lift the mouse off the desk and put it down again. This solves the problem.

Run a system scan for viruses/spyware. Once your system's clean, I suggest you run Windows setup and choose the [I]upgrade[/I] option. This way, you'll restore any corrupt/missing files, and get your missing options back.

I concur. DFI LanParty. The best, and most suited board for gaming and overclocking. FoxConn is good too. So is MSI (I have 2 MSI boards, both are functioning like a charm, even after overclocking)

Hey I have 2 computers, one with XP SP2, the other with Server 2003, Enterprise Edition. Now, I use Remote Desktop from the XP client to login to the server. In the remote desktop client, i have configured it to leave the sounds at the server (ie. any sound played …

you working?

Your restore cache may have gone bad. Disable System Restore and then Re enable it. This will destroy all the earlier restore points and create a new one. System restore will function properly from now on.

I love the emotion you put in your posts, hollystyles.

I kinda think t's best to get the drivers from the original manufacturer. Windows drivers are generic and may not support all of the device's features.

Is the CD itself bootable?

I'm not too good at this, but if I were to take a guess, I'd say it's either the software acting wonky or one of the sensors failed. Because I don't think it's possible for the computer to even turn on without the nagative voltages. However, you could confirm this …

You said that the problem recurs with the HD connected. Can you see if the problem occurs with the HD connected on another computer? I've seen this problem on a friend's computer. Exact symptoms you described. As soon as I removed his HD, the computer booted up fine. I then …

I tried the Vista build 5308, and I found the interface kinda confusing. Sure it was pretty, animated and all out eye candy, but that isn't the primary goal of an OS, is it? Infact, I found the transparencies to be more of an irritant than beneficial. In terms of …

actually, my friend had the same problem with his ASUS board. The same model as yours. Turned out the board was faulty. So, if you're sure the drivers are fine, the speaker is fine and the connections are fine, the mobo itself could be bad.

If you have an AGP slot and not a PCI-E slot, I guess that pretty much decides it. You'll need to get an AGP card.

We could help you if you could describe in detail what's going on with your computer...

It shows up in device Manager, but not under Disk Management? That's quite weird. Can you check the disk on another computer to see if the disk itself isn't kaput?

But you will be required to enter a new serial number, provided on your XP packaging.
