It always says "this website is listed under 'such and such'" and requests an admin username and password to bypass it. lolz... I don't have the guts to really do it, but its nice to know.

The cmos battery is usually located somewheres on the motherboard. It could be either a barrel style solder, coin cell, or some other types o' batterys. The batteries look like their names usually. Dont know if it will clear the password though.

Maxthon rulz.

Yeah, its probably the video card or motherboard. Try switching around the parts to, err... switch them around, then see if your monitor works with the other video card or motherboard. Please try the video card first, much easier. Probably video card, maybe motherboard, definitly not software. Good luck.

windows vista starter <very bad> and home basic editions will require a 800mhz 32-bit cpu; 512 ram; directx9-capability; 32mb graphics memory; cd drive; and 20gb hard drive with 15gb free. while windows vista ultimate,windows vista home premium,windows vista business,and windows vista enterprise editions all need the same things and also …

[quote=gilario]i even change the memory and the video card and try also to clean the entire cpu. the power indicator in the motherboard is on. it means there is power coming in from the power supply. but how come it wont start? gil[/quote] When you say u cleaned the cpu, …

How would I access a printer connected to a router with another router connected to it that computer is on? The printer is an Officejet Pro L7650 and comes up with an error every time I try to install.

Is it possible that a motherboard fan will not spin because of a broken CPU? Or would it be the mobo's fault?

If I have a hard disk with more than 50% free space, will it become slower if I consume 30% more disk space? Why or why not? It never made sense to me that more free disk space would equal better performance as long as programs aren't running in the …

So I don't have to leave my PC on all the time? I don't have any wifi webcams or a nas, but just wondering. =)

My school website always translates the password I enter into a really really long one. It changes every time and confuses IE. IE always asks to change the password to the new one, but IE always records the long one. I don't want to switch back to Firefox or Opera.

If I buy a new AMD CPU, do I have to buy a new fan too or can I use the fan from my previous AMD CPU with a different socket? Do the sockets have to be the same?

Is it anything at all like KDE 4? I haven't used KDE before so I wouldn't know. DO YOU THINK ITS REAL? (I do.)

Hi guys. I have horrible wireless connectivity in my house and have spent a lot on equipment to boost the signal, to no avail. Here's the rundown: House: -$800,000 with brick chimney, stone walls, no wired ethernet, no powerline capability -Bad router placement in the office to one side of …

Right now intel holds the place for fastest cpu, the intel core 2 duo extreme. But, as a lot of people say, amd processors are much cheaper than intel ones. Some time next year, amd will become faster again by creating quadruple cpu cores.

Hmm... I'm not sure if this would help, but i recently needed to download the Windows Installer onto a computer that was not directly connected to the internet.

I currently use Avast! Free Antivirus as my antivirus. I decided against using McAfee Security Suite 2007 on a new computer when it slowed down the computer too much. Now, I'm worried that freeware antivirus might be insecure compared to paid ones. I do have other freeware antispyware programs and …

Could I run applications using just the Program Files from another computer, without actually installing the program with a formal installer? Thing is, I recently had to reinstall Windows and all my applications, and am wondering what disadvantages there are to not installing the program and just using the Program …

I don't actually have the beta but i read that vista turns of some features if you dont have something that it needs. On a Mac you can activate a similar effect by pushing a function button 9-12, not sure which one.

I think you should really just get a new mouse. It seriuosly wont cost that much and its the most likely reason. Another thing could be your motherboard is broken a little but probably not. Also, if your current mouse isnt optical, then the rollerball sensors could be jammed or …

If you're looking to spend around $100, I don't really think you can buy 2 new 1gb ram. Not sure about which will give you [I]precisely[/I] more performance, but I think the cpu is more in need of an upgrade than the 1gb of ram.

I think spending a bit more now would be better, buying to P5B-E, instead of buying the cheaper one. From 1.8 to 2.3 is a lot of gain and would show when you're gaming or just using it at all. Spend more now! The price difference is only around $30 …

Oi! Heres a super cheap motherboard with a pcie slot. For your cpu though, do you have a socket T or 478? The linked ones are all T but you could probably find some 478's too...

I think you should try to uninstall some programs that you dont need, like all that free trial stuff and useless games that usually comes with a new pc. Also if your antivirus isnt up to date or doesnt scan some parts of your computer (like the boot sector) viruses …

Perhaps your new <and old> power supply isn't capable of handling all of your compoments? Or maybe your new ps is just defected. Your motherboard may not work as well with your power supply, check the cables and wiring in the case. On the other hand, a power supply actually …

A good motherboard for the core 2 extreme would be any motherboard thats fairly new and has the right type of chipset to work with it.... Most of the newer motherboards can work with it.

I really dont think that you can spend less than a hundred dollars on a power supply to supply that. And if your willing to spend so much on the computer parts, why dont you spend the same on the thing that powers them?

Yes, if you want to use sli the graphics cards must be completely, exactly, identical.

Ya, the intel core 2 duo extreme is the fastest processors in the world right now, but amd processors are much cheaper.

Amd & intel are both processors, so it should be practically the same thing, right? And i think you should get an intel since you know more about them.

I think your motherboard is probably defected since all of the optical drives connect to the motherboard. I could be wrong of course.

It really shouldnt damage the screen, but ive heard that some games need better monitors. But you have just bought a new tv so i guess its okay. Actually, now that i think about it, you should stick with the resolution that they gave you on the box.

Error number 163 and 161 mean specificly that the time and date is not set. But ya, your cmos is also dead. Got that from [URL="http://www.ibm.com/us/"][COLOR=black]http://www.ibm.com/us/[/COLOR][/URL] <dont know how to un-underline name. Not a hyperlink. >

If your motherboard supports dual channel memory, then you could get a preformance boost by pairing up two sticks that are exactly the same in memory, speed, manufacturer, etc. But then, if you dont have many slots, you could go for just one, larger, stick.

Um, I'm not sure, but I think it should work as they share the same socket number, but make sure the chipsets work too.

I think you should probably leave it in. 1gb is a big difference.

Maybe its not your motherboards problem, it could easily be a loose or broken cord, or a deffective hard drive. I doubt that the motherboard would malfunction. So many ram slots!!!!!!

If you cant fit the sink fan back on, you probably have to apply some more force to it. Or, make sure your inserting it in properly. Don't forget to add more cooling compound!

You could try to go to a computer fixing place to fix your computer, or if your hardware comes with accidental damage protection you could get it fixed, or you could simply try to buy a new motherboard.
