[QUOTE=thepastimer;807101]Modern psu's are "idiot proof", so if it doesn't fit, its not the right one, and if it does, its probably the right connector.[/QUOTE] exactly what he said,the cable can only go in to one place,the gpu should have a 6pin connector where as the cpu connector will be eiter …

go into safe mode and disable all the startup processes and programs, this way we can rule out any buggy software and then concentrate on the hardware, also start up the pc with minimum hardware(1stick of memory, onboard graphics,one hdd etc)

have you updated the bios on the motherboard?does the bios detect the hdd as a 400gig? is your ide drivers installed?

yes it most likely is your cpu that is fried nowtry taking it out again and reseting it with new compound(not to much) but if that does not work then i do not know!

do you mean by setting up a peer to peer network between the 2 laptops? well yes this would work if you can still boot into windows, but if this is not possible the no you will not be able to, you will need to place the old hdd into …

download seagate disk tools and test the hdd with that, this should be able to check if the drive is still working as it is suppose to. you could also try running chkdsk g: /r in command prompt!

i dont think that you can do this from HDMI as this is a media format, as for the usb 2.0 it should be fine seeing as you should get about 20mb/s atleast from a external drive. i guest it the only way for you to know if it will …

do you have a pc speaker connected? if so is there a beep?if you do have one and you dont get a beep even when removing the memory then your mobo is definitely dead!if there is a beep then you should be able to fix it wich the means of …

the battery should be the same as the one that you would find in a watch and like jbennet said,it will have a number on it like 2023 or 2010, this will be the actual size or volts of the battery. the problem with the old laptops or notebooks is …

if the pc starts up then what you can try is to run memtest on the pc,this will tell you if the memory is working correctly or not and it will tell you if its compatible with the system!

It is never a good thing to update hardware drivers from MS as i have days and days of troubles with it! IF you have a Nvidia card then get your Nvidia drivers from them, there are a lot of advantages of updating you gpu drivers like performance increases snd …

when you c that little white cursor flashing it means that it is trying to find a boot device, what you need to do is pull out all of you ide and sata devices(turn the pc of first) then turn it back on and c waht the error message says!? …

yes the best way to test a mobo is by removing it from the case(reflow) and then starting it up like that with bare minimum components, this will then cancel out stuff like static from the case or any shorts that the case might be causing! if you still get …
