    % in TWILIGHT ZONE

    Looks like its time to start replacing components one by one till the problem is fixed. I can only hope that you have access to them or friends that can help you out. My gut tells me your motherboard may be the problem. Good Luck.

    CPU & Motherboard Problem!!! Help!

    The circumstances under which you bought the board seem a little sketchy. "A good deal" usually implies the dealer wanted to get this board off his hands. Like I said earlier the a7a266 has been discontinued and has known problems. Win XP has had known problems with certain chipsets as...

    Power supply?

    300W all the way... worth the little extra cash in the end!

    hd has less capacity than it should

    Just a thought. If your computer is an old Pentium the BIOS may not be able to handle hard drives over 4GB. Thus upgrading would be a good choice. Good Luck!

    unformatted hard drive help

    If all fails contact the hard drive manufacturer and ask for DATA RECOVERY. It can cost any where from $200 - $2000 depending how much they got to work. Even this has no promisses, but the success rate is high. If the information is valuble enough than its worth the price. Good luck!

    LPT1 and printers

    Try setting the printer port in the BIOS to either: ECP, EPP, or normal ... usually one of these will work. If your not used to going into the BIOS, have someone in the know do it for you. Good Luck!

    CPU & Motherboard Problem!!! Help!

    Listen up! I have dealt with these specific Motherboards and they keep having the same reoccuring problem, They overheat (even with a Volcano 7 heatsink and fan), thus causing the crashes and other errors. Asus has silently discontinued this board in favour of the new nForce chipset. I STRONGLY...

    EMAIL TRANSFER to a NEW HARD DRIVE

    Netscape mail has an Export function. I don't have Netscape handy to me but I believe when you are in Netscape mail you go to File, Export... you then get to chose to back up your Email, Addresses, Etc. There is also a folder in c:\progam files\netscape\users I believe will contain all your...

    Is your XP machine NTFS? Thats known to cause problems. Also on the XP CD there is a program that you run on the other computers. Stick the Xp CD in the WIN cd rom, let the auto start come up, choose Perform Additional Tasks, then Set Up A Home Office Network, then follow the prompts. Worked...

    Interesting problem

    I would start systematically swapping parts untill the computer starts working. I mean every part if you can including motherboard, powersupply, etc. I would start with the simple stuff like sound card, NIC, RAM and work my way from there.
