I tried Crucial.com, but it does not list this model eMachines. =/

Thanks for the replies. This model of computer is VERY poorly documented, even on the eMachines web site. I do know, however, that it is supposedly upgradeable to 2gb of RAM, and there are only two slots on the motherboard. This would mean 1gb per slot, right? I wish I had a way to test the...

Hey guys, I haven't come around here in a while but maybe someone can help me with this problem. As much as I know (or think I know) about computers, the different types of RAM these days confuses me. So, when my wife wanted me to upgrade her RAM so that EverQuest II would perform better for...

I just got the digital port to work, and everything looks great... No yellow tint! Any idea why this works and the regular port won't? Also, I've never used this kind of connection. What are the disadvantages or advantages of running through the digital port, if any? Thanks again for the...

I can't see anything wrong with the monitor plug -- no bent pins, and the only missing pin is the one that isn't supposed to be there. I had no problems with the wire or monitor at all before replacing the video card earlier today. I have fidgeted the wire as you said, and at both ends, but with...

I just got my new GeForce 6800 GT delivered today and immediately replaced my ATI Radeon with it. During boot-up, however, I noticed that the text was yellow instead of white. Then, when the XP welcome screen came up, it was green instead of blue. There is a somewhat strong yellow tint to...

Oh yeah, meant to say that the event viewer gave no errors relating to CMD.exe or occurring when CMD.exe or any DOS program was run. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\AutoRun exists in my registry, but the value field is blank. On the other hand...

By ScanDisk I meant the disk error checking utility that XP automatically runs at boot-time if the PC was rebooted or shut down unexpectedly. In prior versions of Windows, it was called ScanDisk, and I assumed it still was. This was a clean install of XP Pro, though it's been running for going...

After playing with _default.pif and the settings for the Command Prompt window... nada. I don't think wacky settings are causing this. I'm thinking it's got something to do with a file related to cmd.exe that became corrupted during one of the lock-ups. Could a corrupt command.com be causing...

I've been running XP Pro for a couple of years now and haven't had many problems with it. I've run several DOS programs and games that I've had forever with no troubles at all. ...Until today. I experienced a couple of strange lock-ups which required me to use the reset button. As the computer...

There's a program called POW! at www.analogx.com that could help you. Every time an unwanted window pops up, you can set the program to terminate any window that pops up with that same title. This saves a lot of time and drastically reduces the number of pop-ups, but I don't think anything can...

I am trying to play a game written in DOS, but I don't seem to be able to free up enough conventional memory for it to run. I have a Dell Inspiron 2500 with an Intel Celeron 800 mHz and 256 mb of RAM, and I am running Windows XP Professional. Any suggestions on how I can get the full 640K or...
