    Voltage oscillating rapidly in BIOS

    Just an update, if anyone is interested. I upgraded the BIOS to the latest version and BAM! Problem solved instantly. Voltage is quite stable now and performance seems to have increased slightly all across the board. Apparently it had something to do with how aggressively the board managed the...

    Voltage oscillating rapidly in BIOS

    Clearing CMOS did nothing. As I've kind of expected, unfortunately. What do you mean by "how is it connected to my mains"? From the outlet to the computer? I'm using a filter, which I've used for quite a while, never gave me problems (although I'm buying a nobreak next month). Or do you mean a...

    Voltage oscillating rapidly in BIOS

    Oh, and to answer Roger's question, it's running oh so smoothly! I use this box mostly for gaming and, so far had all my games set to max and great framerate.

    Voltage oscillating rapidly in BIOS

    Thanks for the replies guys, the main point I posted this is because I've never had a BIOS showing me voltage levels up to the 3rd decimal house, so I wasn't sure if it was bad behavior or too much precision. I'll try clearing CMOS once I get home and post it here how it goes. Thanks again.

    Voltage oscillating rapidly in BIOS

    I've just setup a new box with the following specs: mobo: Intel DG45ID CPU: Intel E7400 Vcard: Geforce 9600GT RAM: 1 stick Kingston 2gb DDR800 Power Source: Zalman ZM460B-APS HD and DVD-RW Problem is, under Hardware Monitor, in the Bios, all voltages oscillate madly, they only vary in their...

    PS/2 Mouse Problem

    Try going into safe mode then and deleting all mouse profiles. Windows 98 maintains them all there. I know it sounds a bit empirical but it works for me, give it a shot.

    PS/2 Mouse Problem

    Have you tried booting in safe mode and checking the device manager for duplicate entries of mouse devices? And deleted them all to force a re-check?

    Embedded images being forwarded as attachments...

    ...From Outlook 2002 to Outlook Express 6. That's my problem. Weird thing is, it doesn't happen to every machine running Outlook Express that I test and it doesn't happen when I forward a message from Outlook Express to this same computer that catches images as attachmentes. Any Insights...

    Power Supply

    I once had a Soyo mobo that I had to plug out for a while after a power failure before it came back to life. After much fiddling with the problem, I found out it was an engineering problem. That said, consider two things: - Test another power source and - Post the system specs here so more info...

    Question on downloading images from the Internet

    It used to happen to me once in a while, but I never experienced it again after switching from IE to Firefox. A favorite workaround was to paste the link into a download manager (such as getright).

    Printers, printing styles and Outlook 2002

    Hi fellow ITists, I recently upgraded Outlook Express to Outlook 2002 (the former was giving me stability problems), but got a weird trade-off, as now I can't choose printers (I have a bunch of network printers in a network server scenario) when printing memo style, but can choose printers...

    IRQL less or not equal/bad pool caller/Suwin GPF, please help!

    Unfortunately, yes. The only things I haven´t done yet are switching my video card, my CPU or my mobo, for which I´m just waiting for a friend to provide me with'em.

    IRQL less or not equal/bad pool caller/Suwin GPF, please help!

    Yep, I´m miserable, I´ve tried switching to another brand of RAM (no success) unplugging everything BUT RAM,CPU video card and HD (still no success) and even tried completing the installation with severe underclocking options in my BIOS and every non-vital configuration disabled and nothing...

    Epox 8k5a2+ Bios Checksum error

    Well, after a long while, I finally got my BIOS chip back (I sent it to be reprogrammed) and it worked fine when I plugged it back. But all sorts of new issues appeared, and I started a new thread about it, if you guys can continue helping me the topic is thread602-777377 for your help, I...

    IRQL less or not equal/bad pool caller/Suwin GPF, please help!

    Both are Maxtors, one is a 30Gigs 5T030H3 and the other a 15Gigs 51536U3. Clearing CMOS produced no results, I´ll have to get back to you on that LFF utility and software diagnosis. I´ve already tried putting this RAM on another com´puter (with a different mobo) and it worked fine. I´m starting...

    IRQL less or not equal/bad pool caller/Suwin GPF, please help!

    Yes, I did wipe both HDs and created FAT32 partitions (they were formatted with NTFS before - both gave me this same problem), ummm... What is Manu.LLF? Or drive overlay? No OS before, the disks are new.

    IRQL less or not equal/bad pool caller/Suwin GPF, please help!

    Disabling the internal cache is the one option I´ve altered that enabled me to go a little further in the installation, but the system crashed anyway. As to configure RAM/Clock, I´m running at a smooth 2.0Ghz (the CPU regular speed) and the ram has been through all the setup defaults, to no...

    System Shock!

    Thanks guys, that seems to sum it up alright, confirming my suspicions. I just needed to hear it from the experts. P.S.: Loved the "copper water pipe" bit!

    System Shock!

    Well, I live in Brazil, where the level of moisture in the air around here is huge. In fact, I´ve only known static for what it really is in a trip overseas, because until that it was a textbook curiosity for me. So I guess it´s safe to rule out the possibilty of static. I think it is a short...
