although 120 ft,is not really far ,the max for ca5 is about 300ft.if you are using cat6 [max is about 700ft ]cable then i would try a length of that ,signal deteriorates as it gets farther away from the source

also if you can get into windows try bluescreen viwer to get the mini dump info .==================
This facility will produce similar results, mainly if it is the result of Blue Screen problems. It creates minidumps.

Download BlueScreenView:
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.htmlthe download link is way down the bottom of the page
unzip downloaded file and double click on BlueScreenView.exe to run the program.
when scanning is done, go to EDIT - Select All
Go to FILE - SAVE Selected Items, and save the report as BSOD.txt
Open BSOD.txt in Notepad, copy all of the content, and paste it into your next reply

Thank You -

also try hitting f8 on bootup it may give you the option to change the setting on the auto reboot .if not if you can get into windows ,right click on mycomputer /properties /go to the advanced tab ,and go to startup and recovery and settings ,its in there to uncheck

I found that my computer is a Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor.
Can I please get help on the graphics thing?

Centrino is a word Intel used to describe a combination of things in the laptop not just the cpu
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrino

as for you problem ,you need to obtain win7 drivers for you video adapter ,what is the exact make and model # of the laptop.
try going to device manager and updating the video driver ,tell it to search the internet for them

Than i decided to take the technical help, as one of my frnd suggested, from the iGennie technical solution & there technician just run some commands, and my laptop wifi working fine.
wooow.... thanz to iGennie.

you let some online tech support sitr have access to you computer ,how do you know that the file you had to download wasn't a trojan ,and now they are watching your every move, and what about payment ,i assume you used a credit card ,and now they have your number , or maybe you just a signature spammer .if you are,then i would suggest to other who think your idea is a good one to be wise and be careful when dealing with online tech support ,most are just another scam

its on c drive

install recuva ,and get it to search for missing file

Just got the problem sorted. It was a faulty psu. Just bought a new 1 and everything fine.
Thanks for your help

your welcome ,happy computing

if you c/ drive is you windows install ,then you could try Recuva to recover you documents .
http://www.piriform.com/recuva

first i have to say why would you format your desktop with out backing up you important data !important data should never only be stored in one place .,ok ,scolding you is over ,

this partition recovery software is what i see them suggesting on other help forums ,i have never used it myself,i don't own important data ,good luck .so i won't be much help in that area , not even sure it will even work for you because you formatted the partition ,after check the main page ,click on fee downloads for some more info
http://www.partition-recovery.com/

is windows install on the C;drive or did you have it on D:

im lost ,removing a power supply from a tower to clean it should not make this happen to a computer ,i have cleaned hundreds of them .and only remember this one ,maybe because it only happened a few mnts ago , ,i cleaned one with can air and when i plugged it back in and it popped something inside and needed to be replaced ,
maybe the psu is bad,got another to try

ok, did you install the recommended chipset drive first , then try the sound driver

It's got 4 ram slots so all the old ram is in as well as the new ram.

OK, did you remove the new ones then at least ,to try it with the old ram

Yes the card worked perfectly.

any chance the card has a power plug that got unplugged ,when you took ot the psu to clean it

also just remembered this ,try running windows updates/custom setting and see if it has hardware driver updates

run Speecy again so i can see it all
after Speccy has finished gathering information, click File > Publish Snapshot.
Click Yes. A web address will be displayed.
Click Copy to Clipboard and paste it in your next post.

one more time i will try ??
when you use the service tag ,does it show drivers for winxp in the list of operating systems ,like my dell .see attachment
its really hard to direct you to drivers for a device we don't know the name and model,sorry

of course you cant ,posting way to early in the morning ,lol

so you just bought the new video card yesterday ,did the new card work before you cleaned the psu ,if yes ,try removing and re-seating the video card into its slot

Something I forgot to mention and only just occurred to me to check again - the headphone aux jack works fine with the same speakers, cables, etc. Does this suggest it could be a fault with the other female aux connector, rather than sound card?

one can only assume so ,

a google search of the motherboard in you dell shows people try to do the same thing as you and scan they do show no sound device also .so as i said in my other post ,go to dell site and use you your service tag ,http://support.dell.com/support/index.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=hea no winxp drivers then you are out of luck or you need to find them somewhere else ,and i can find any as i don't even know what sound device you have..

also inwin7 what name is given to sound device win7 installed

some more info please like make and model#'s of the computer and the video card

Lets find out what you have inside.

Use Speccy to provide details of your computer's configuration.

nope not I ,but maybe some answers can be had using my buddy /friend Google .

flicked the 230volt to 110 volts

just doing that should not have cause any problems ,i have seen many tower get switched to 220 and just not boot up until switched back .maybe you were just on lucked ,also you don't mention if you try putting you old ram back in ,that is if you had old ram to but back in .and then try booting computer

started to read you post but stopped because of the silly,annoying spelling words with ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

no such word as Cant .

when you use your service tag to go to Dell driver download ,does it list drivers for winxp or just Vista and Win7 .
xp will install default/generic sound controllers ans codecs ,check my attachment

also download and use Speccy to show what devices you have in the laptop ,let it do it scan then go to file and publish snapshot and copy to clipboard and post the link here .if you want ,and maybe we could use that info to help find a winxp driver that will work
http://www.piriform.com/speccy

yeah ,using chkdsk /f should fix any error and tell if its ok

like i said i don't know a lot ,just read to much to remember it all ,i guess .lol

Hi. Today I bought a used Hard disk. Now I want to format it completely and check for any bad sectors which HDD may have. How can i do this? Tell me the best way to do it.

I am Windows user. Hard disk is IDE (not SATA)..

hi, it depends on what you have for a computer ,if you have a tower ,install the drive as a slave and ,check in mycomputer to make sure it sees the drive .close mycomputer ,go to start right click on mycomputer go manage ,then disk management and in there you can format it , then i would use a utility from the hard drive manufacturer site to check it for errors.
or you could install it in a usb external case and do the same

how to's by my friend google.com

sorry i don't have an answer ,looks like a lot of people have the same problem though ,only answer/fix i read in a few of the link in google was to reinstall winxp .

It seems to me that that can be done by a local policy editor which I know almost nothing and have no idea on any of the parameters and and how to configure and activate.

hope you don't need to learn it by Monday .i don't know alot about it myself ,but enough to know its no easy ,you will need to learn xp first i think as with win7 its so much improved on winxp , i think you best start with using goolge to find your videos and pdf file on how to

I was told if you run a laptop of the adapter without a battery, you fry the components.

so,who told you that a battery salesman

hi,the one you bought must be for a SATA hard drive , you need this one if you drive is a ide hard drive after you remove the dell adapter for the laptop .

this one is 2 sided and with with laptop and larger desktop ide drives ,not an enclosure just a cable

giving that it didn't work in Ubuntu ,i would say it sure sounds like the card is the problem

download and run Speccy program to give us a bit more info on what on thelaptop .it fee and safe ,run it and when its done go to file and click on publish snap shot,copy the link to clipboard and paste it here .

well, I have dell Inspiron, it has the same problem couple of month ago. I have tried many things, search on google for help by unable to solve the problems.
So, i call the technician for the . I don't know what he did on my laptop. Afer some time when he finished something like executing command he told me that my laptop is now connected. I restart my computer several times & find my WiFi is working fine.

i don't think anyone should give this site a call and let them have access to there computer ,if you need this then call your computer manufacturer, most offer this type of support, i don't think the issue here is with a work/trojan so link in post above is miss leading

when i put his service tag in earlier im sure it said it was a ide board ,i could be wrong

two drivers i don't think I have installed are an ethernet controller or PCI simple communicatons control

it isn't going to work with out those ,use you dell service tag and download the chip set drivers i think ,if it doesn't show one ,go to networking and download controller from there ,enter you service tag here .
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/555?c=us&l=en&s=biz&~ck=mn

this is from my dell ,drivers page and it only showed one device drive ,and the controller driver ,i installed both and it worked .

autoruns is a good Microsoft program to use instead of msconfig
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902

and if the fan hasn't been working for awhile now ,you may have toasted the cpu already

sure it will ,that was the the res of the laptop i had it on a few yrs ago

I have this same problem only i DON'T have a XP CD

then you need to get one

its already fast out of the box .what are the specs of you computer ,make and model # ,will do .or post the info ,like ram, CPU ,version of win7 you use ect ect

and i suggest you be careful using what you find through Google ,especially registry editors,you will find a lot of software programs claiming to speed it up ,but for best results adding hardware[ram faster harddrive ] ,and stopping programs from running at start up are your best options

your welcome ,always good to read the outcome was a successful

hi, check your one click setting ,open mycomputer ,go to tools at the top and folder option and you will see one click maybe it got set some how ,
check attachment

this thread was created by a signature link spammer ,so really not need to keep it active by posting you favorite windows version
