    56K V.92 modem compatibility

    thanks. I use Earthlink and I'm pretty sure that they do, but I'll check it out. Although, it looks like a V.92 will cost 2x as much as a V.90, so i may just stick with the V.90.

    Installing New Hard Drive

    But if the drive was dead, why would the bios in my XP machine recognize it?

    Installing New Hard Drive

    Jumpers are correct and IDE were correct. I'm having trouble understanding why my bios would pick up on the drive but WinXP wouldn't. I would think that even if the HD wasn't compatible with XP that XP would still pick up on it. I'm confused. Just to clarify - because I haven't done this in...

    Installing New Hard Drive

    I want to install a new Hard drive into a machine that I'm rebuilding. To format the new drive, i decided to put it into my existing Win XP Pro machine because I figured that XP would automatically pick it up so that I could format the drive in computer management. This process has worked for...

    What is eating my hard drive?

    Just a thought, but make sure that you have the latest antivirus updates downlaoded and installed. i've worked with many people whose PC's have had symptoms of a virus but its users swear they don't have a virus because they ran Norton and it didn't detect any viruses. I'll then check to see...

    Hard drive not recognized

    I should also note that I put the "faulty" HD in my Win XP machine and XP did not recognize the drive.

    Hard drive not recognized

    I checked my bios settings already, and I did an auto check on the HD but it still did not recognize it. I'm not familiar with the cmos battery. Where is it located?

    i know that's the easiest way to determine the memory, but i don't have a pc that will run the edo. About a year ago I worked on a pc with edo memory. I added more memory and have these two sticks of edo left over. I wanted to sell this memory but obviously i need to figure out how much it is...

    memory

    Is there any way to determine the amount(in megabytes) of memory just by viewing the stick? I know you can tell what type of memory, but I need to figure out how much memory it is. I don't have a pc that can put this type of memory into to check. If it helps the stick of memory i have is...

    Hard drive not recognized

    I recently rebuilt a P2 450 with Windows 2K. I added a new cd-rom drive, too. I was going to add more memory, too, so I took out the existing RAM to see what type I needed to buy. After I reinstalled the RAM, I was having trouble with the video card- it wasn't recognizing the card. It turned...

    figuring out correct video driver after rebuild

    Hungster, Believe it or not I already tried that. For some reason it didn't work. after I installed the driver and rebooted the box, the little yellow i icon was still attached to the driver name under computer management.

    Actually, I don't even need the utility...I know what card it is. I just need an updated driver, at this point.

    figuring out correct video driver after rebuild

    I checked the S3 website and they direct me to S3graphics.com. However, this website comes up "page can't be displayed." Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can find an updated driver for an S3 Trio 3D/2X that will get it to operate with Win2K?
