Hi thanks for everybody who contributed to this thread, my problem has been solved. Apparently something was flawed in my Bios, I did nothing more than flash it to the most current version and this has fixed my automatic restart problem. I had done this 8-9 months ago, and sadly I was unaware...
Hi BadBigBen,
Thanks for your suggestions, however I'm not experiencing any BSOD's. Windows Vistas actually shuts down normally meaning via the start menu. It's when computer goes silence that it automatically re-starts back up again even when I have asked vistas to shutdown. I did take your...
Ran the Spybot Search and Destroy and yes it found some Malware, ran it 3 more times and now everything is clean. However the inability to shutdown the computer is still alive and well. All it will do is restart when I ask it to shutdown which then causes me to perform a hard shut down by...
First thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to respond.
My issue: I have been running Windows Vista 32bit version for several months now pretty much problem free. About a week ago I noticed that when I tried to shutdown the computer it wouldn't. Instead the computer constantly just...
Hello,
My problem is this I have an Abit IP35 Pro Motherboard and my memory is currently running at the lower default speed as illustrated by CPUID which showed under the Tab SPD that I was running at 6400 at 400MHZ.
I know that the board can run my new OCZ DDR2 8500 memory at 1066 albeit...

Hi Tony,
Interestingly enough I found another data recovery software that is a few dollars cheaper and it allows for viewing in a windows like tree structure and it appears to do the same thing GDB, but it's called File Scavenger. Anyhow I have decided that the 320GB HD data is just not there...
Ok I have followed your advice to the letter, and thus far Im having greater success. I reformated the Maxtor 250GB Drive, reinstalled a clean copy of XP and partitioned it 60GB for the primary OS and left the rest for data. Then after installing SP3 I decided to go in the disk management...
Sorry for the confusion... A total of 3 drives, but only 2 are in the new build.
The old (1) 80GB Raptor has been formated and removed.
The current system has just two drives 250 Maxtor with the OS on it and 320 Western Digital 320GB of which I thought would have all my old data on it that I...

Ok here's my setup:
Intel Core Duo E6850
Abit IP35pro
Western Digital 80GB Raptor
Vistas 32
Here's the deal I filled up the 80GB Raptor fast, and the bottom line it's way too noisy and the speed difference for accessing information isn't noticeable to me.
What I would like to do is slave...
Ok so I downloaded the free version of quick time, and then all of my movies play using quick time, but I wanted some movies to still play in Window media player. Out of frustration I decided to remove quick time, thinking that this would make windows media player become the default again, well...
