    XP cannot see files on DVD

    Thanks, but this is a Delta Force game DVD that has already been finalized.

    XP cannot see files on DVD

    The only thing that works is by going into Device Manager, uninstalling the DVD drive and then rebooting the system. Is there any way to fix this? [ponder]

    Dimension 3100 Memory

    I have read this thread with interest, particularly cdogg's contribution. My question is this if someone can help: I want to upgrade my PC from a 64-bit Sempron 2600 to an Athlon 3200, based on an Elite ECS K8M800-M2 motherboad which supports Hypertransport from 400-1600 MT/s. It has 512MB...

    reboot.exe - Access denied

    Thanks Wolluf. I've done what you suggested, but now Windows says: "Cannot find the file 'msconfig' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all required libraries are available. [sadeyes]

    reboot.exe - Access denied

    Can anyone please tell me why I get a Windows message when I log in to Winodws saying "C:\...reboot.exe Access to the specified device, path or file is denied. Could it be anything to do with protection against Sasser? [ponder]

    Cooling problem on Athlon XP2400+ system

    Thanks Paparazi. After Micker's post I have decided to order a dual-fan PSU. The only problem is I don't know which way the heatsink fan is drawing the air. Also, how do I reverse the fan? Do I cut the wires and switch them around?

    Cooling problem on Athlon XP2400+ system

    Well, as I said, the heatsink fan is right up against the power supply, so instead of the extracted air being free to escape, it is blocked by the power supply. I don't know how else I can explain this. The top of the case above the area where the power supply and heatsink are located feels...

    Cooling problem on Athlon XP2400+ system

    I built this system inside a mini tower case with a massive Qtec heatsink/fan assembly, which almost touches the power supply, so the fan may not be extracting the heated air very efficiently. Is there anything I can do short of rebuilding the system inside a midi case, or using a cheaper...

    Screen dies after Windows XP starts

    I have tried pressing F8 repeatedly, but still all I get is 'Select first boot device'. When I go into the BIOS, there appears to be no option for selecting video settings. [sadeyes]

    Screen dies after Windows XP starts

    I tried F8, but all that comes up is first boot device selection. How do I start up in safe mode? Or how do I check my video settings? I presume this all refers to BIOS settings?

    Screen dies after Windows XP starts

    Before I switch my PC on, the LED on my screen shows orange. When I switch the PC on, the LED shows green while the system text messages come up. When the Windows XP start image comes up then the screen makes a slight clicking sound and goes blank, and the LED goes back to orange again. I don't...

    Windows installation hangs in middle of copying files

    Windows installation hangs in middle of copying files. I have tried it on two different disks that I reformatted. It used to work before on reformatted disks. Could the licence have expired? [ponder]
