    disappearing Printer drivers

    System freeze or reboot.....need help

    Ok, My friend and I have been through all of this - You're either looking at faulty RAM, Faulty Video/VRAM. I know this as when I bought a new video card, I got ticks all over the win98 boot screen as well as all over the POST screen. Similarly with RAM - one of my ram sticks was on the way out...

    Dual boot - each on own partition or on own disk?

    Almost Seeminly impossible problem to solve

Now tell me, I don't know what chipsets are on graphic cards nowadays, but do both these cards have nVIDIA chipsets? <br><br>I've just upgraded a machine to a AMD k6-2 500MHz w/ nVIDIA Vanta TNT2 AGP card...

    Adding SCSI-2 Drive to Compaq Deskpro 2000

    OK, I'm not all that experienced with SCSI, but I do have a small DX2 Server here at home, and it uses a primitive SCSI type, I'm not sure if it's SCSI-1 or SCSI-2. Anyway, I found that I couldn't mix IDE with SCSI in my case, but nowadays it should be possible. how old is the equipment...
