 | That can be caused by number of things. 1. Corrupted registry. 2. Corrupted files. (system or programs) 3. Dying hardware (HD, RAM, Mobo...) You should try booting in safe mode (press and hold f8 while booting) and look in your event viewer (in "administrative tools" <- might be that you …  |
 | Registry files can be restored manually via MS-DOS prompt. System.dat and user.dat (in windows directory) are current registry and system.da0 and user.da0 are backed up ones (every restart backs them up). Simply by replacing them you would restore your registry to the state it was when you last shut down/rebooted … |
| | [quote=najeebbm639;409822]If my Harddisk is connected with Motherboard , no any peripharal devices are working , but the prosessor and cabinet fan still running[/quote] If I understand correctly, when you connect HD to motherboard, all other peripherals stop working. That points to your HD. It is probably shorting out the IDE … |

| | You might need more power with all that, and don't believe every PSU declared power output. I also have 550 w PSU powering dozen of fans, 2 HDs, 1 optical, GeForce 7800 GT 512 M, 3 GHz AMD Athlon64, and when I run ASUS Probe (monitoring software), I see voltages … |
 | I have a bunch of emulators (Amiga, C64-128, +4, ZX, Nitendo...) and 1000's of games for it. I don't miss it at all. Keeps me puzzled that the games are still beeing made for C64. |
| | I had a similar problem, only it was solved by reinstalling Windows and my "CD drive" was able to read DVDs (as they were 4.8 Gig CDs). I had no autoplay functionality in a sense of playing Audio CD's or DVD Movies. Only data CD/DVDs worked normally (autoplay). And it … |
| | I know this sounds blunt, but did you try to turn the monitor off and back on? Or did you check the monitor - vga connection? |
| | If you are referring to blank title bar, you might have missing font. To check what font is assigned to taskbar, rightclick on the desktop, open properties, click on the appearance tab and click "advanced" button. There you can click on the title bar in the image and the font … |
| | To make things clear: Is it 80 Gig drive as it is described [URL="http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?cc=us&docname=c00577495&lc=en"]here[/URL]? Is it 1250 or 250 meg partition? If you created any partition after this incident, then there is no practical way to recover your drive except restoring the backups from DVDs (ghost, drive imaging...). You can … |
| | Such extreme slow-down can be caused by number of things: - underclocked CPU - lack of free HD space (almost no HD space) - viruses, trojans, adware, spywarwe... - HD issues (dying HD, bad cable connections...) a.k.a. PC having hard time accessing and writing to the HD - the list … |
| | Re: upgrade help ? I have A8N Sli mobo, and only reason for the upgrade (apart from nForce 4 Chipset) is the socket 939. I had misfortune to buy my mobo just before the AM2 socket got released, and judging from the CPU prices, it was a bad timing for me. I don't know … |
| | My control panel is somewhat scrambled (pic) in IE7, Firefox and Opera. Everything else seems OK.  |
| | If the screen is all scrambled and laptop otherwise works as usual, then it is most defintly poor connection between layers and slots. I'll take that by "layers" you mean the very thin see-trough cables. The layers are tricky to plug in. They tend to bend. I suggest that you … |
| | You'll have to post the whole error message. Example: STOP 0x000000D1, (0x0000002b, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0xEEEE1b01) IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL Kbdclass.sys |
| | You will need to disable the on-board graphic card in your BIOS. Only then can your motherboard detect new graphic card. |
| | You didn't state the model of HD nor Chipset. Nevertheless, I had similar problem with my sata drive. There is one jumper that sets transferrate of the HD. In my case, it was set on 3Gb/s and Chipset (Nforce4) supports up to 2 Gb/s. The jumper sets it between 1.5 … |
| | What ethernet card do you have? Please, post network card manufacturer & model (or mobo manuf. & model if it is implemented) Possibly the driver isn't included with the windows 98SE package. |
| | Please, download [URL="http://download.hijackthis.eu/hijackthis_199.zip"]Hijackthis[/URL], extract it, run it and post the log here. We'll go from there. |
 | Re: Rep Points. [quote=tgreer;356733]we never meant it to become the norm for speech on digital media[/quote] Well, it did.  |
 | Re: New Motherboard Files - generally no. They remain on hard drive, bu might get deleted/replaced by windows re-installation, but only system files, unless you FORMAT the drive prior to windows installation. (btw, re-installing windows will be necessary). So, when you do get the new mobo in, don't bother trying booting the thing …  |

| | It can be done, but way to hook it up depends on your soundcard output. Number of output channels, to be precise. Ideal would be 5.1 output to match your home theater. If the number is greater than 5.1, then use 2xfront, 2xrear and center output channels and mute the … |
| | Re: No sound Note: If your sound card is on-board (and it probably is), then downloading and installing Vista drivers for your motherboard (whole bunch) from your [U]motherboard manufacturer's site[/U], not NVIDIA or whatever chipset site, would solve your sound problem. Sound drivers may be downloadable separately. |
 | Re: Confusment ATX = [URL="http://www.learnthat.com/define/view.asp?id=1375"]Advanced Technology eXtended[/URL] For the 12V... either it is just some extra meaningless numbers or seriously impaired PSU. |
| | How about a list of banned members? Since good and bad rep posts and infractions are for everyone to see via member profile, it would be educational for people around here to see just how you can get banned.  |
| | A friednd of mine once said:"I'm short, but great."  |
| | Every DVD drive has 2 sets of lens. One for CDs and one for DVDs. Obviously, CD lens are damaged or dirty. You might try the lens cleaner CD. |
 | Helpful thing here would be posting your mobo model (and manufacturer). That is, if the problem still occurs. |

| | Here's a weird behavior. My PC freezes if I re-enable the LAN. No BSOD, no logs in event viewer, nothing on the hijackthis log... I've noticed that LAN (along with the modem connection) tray icon disappeared moment my anti-virus started updating itself. I'm updating it regularly and it never behaved … |
| | Tim, there could be number of reasons for this: - overclocked machine - lack of cpu/memory voltage (dying PSU) - bad RAM sticks - motherboard damage I suggest that you disable "quick boot" in your BIOS. It might pick up the problem (no quick boot = extended POST) |
| | All those smilies gave me an idea for daniweb: A database of smilies where everyone can contribute. *gasp, applause, bowing* Just put some rules to follow (size in pixels, format, size in kb, animated or not...) ... and viola! That is one thing I would change around here. |
| | Sounds more like network-configuration-related problem(s). Also, hijack this logs would shed more light on your problems(s). |
| | [quote=altergrave;355634]:?: I want to reformat my pc but it seems my own computer does not want me to. It always gives out a stop error message saying something like this: >>Your windows had been shut down to avoid damage. 1.Please scan your PC for viruses. 2.Scan hard drives so it … |
| | OK, ppl. I have a new word game here. Invented it myself. The goal is to guess where I'm from. You keep posting the answers and I promise I'll say "Correct!" on the right answer. Rule is 1 country at the time and no posting in a row. The price …  |
| | I came across this scene (check the attachment) while browsing [URL]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/post278621.html#post278621[/URL] Now it is back to normal. (Using latest firefox) |

| | About that shooting and gun control.... Why is it that, for instance, to get a driver's licence I need to pass a psycho-test, but to buy a gun in state of Virginia all I need is $$$? (so I've heard) That's what NRA lobbied for, so every crazy sob can … |

| | 2 possible causes: - the key is malfunctioning (would require opening up the keyboard and cleaning it) - the keyboard driver was recently replaced /uninstalled (rolling back the driver would fix this) |
| | If I understand correctly, screen would go blank on you, and then go back to normal without any error messages, freezes and such. Sounds like a resolution/refresh rate changes. Those could be triggered by video driver (refresh rate overrides) and would appear when applications (read "games") starts/ends. Problem could occur … |
| | Here's how I do it: - database - folders and subfolders - viewing - ACDSee - Simple and versatile - editing - my weapon of choice is corel photo-paint. Occasional Adobe Photoshop - lots and lots of time and patience to get the work done. |
| | First, couple of Q's. F10 is for the BIOS setup? Is there any video feedback? Are there any beeps? Did you try booting it up without the battery? If you don't get any video feedback, it probably means that your VGA is busted. And VGA being integrated with mobo, it … |
| | There are no registry-fixing-bootable-image programs (to my knowledge). You can try couple of things: - boot to safe mode (might work and give you chance to fix the registry) - boot with windows XP installation CD and try the recovery console - this way you can manually replace registry files … |
| | I suggest that you uninstall speed startup. It might be responsible for the wired behavior of your machine. I'm not saying that it is a nastie. Probably buggy. |
| | Start up in safe mode (f8 during boot) and then you can change refresh rate back to ususal 60 Hz which is standard for all LCD displays. Or plug in external monitor to get video feedback without safe mode. (might require restart) |
