    New PC Doesn't Power Up

    I know of no reason that a higher wattage powersupply would cause you harm, the bigger the power supply, the less you would have to worry about if you added a second CD/DVD, additional HD's, expansion cards or extra case cooling fans. You might see if a friend has a bigger one, and see if you...

    New PC Doesn't Power Up

    G- Check to see which fan header is used for the CPU fan. I have seen boards that have the markings switched between CPU and Fan1. Did you also unplug and reseat the memory? jeradsyn

    Can't save to 'A' drive

    Try a floppy that works in another computer in yours. If it reads okay, try formatting a disk in your computer, then take it to another computer to see if it reads your formatted disk. If you have another drive, just pop it in and give it a shot. That will probably be the fastest answer.

    Too many floppy seeks...

    Am running Norton A/v, and yes, the options are set to scan the removable media when mounted, but it doesn't affect the cdrw or the zip the same way. The excessive seeking is only the a:/b: drive. btw, the o/s is win2kpro.

    Too many floppy seeks...

    My 'inconvenience' is that during normal operation, my floppy drives will randomly start seeking, even without disks or query on my part. While I am on-line, while no one is using the machine, the drives will kick in and seek 2-3 times, then stop, a few minutes later it will repeat. Sometimes...

    New Installation Windows 2000 Professional

    What is your overall harddrive size? Are you saying that the c: drive is partitioned at 23.3 Megabytes? A harddrive of that size is a bit small to be practical, for most applications. You might want to reformat, repartition to a single drive letter, or two equal sized partitions. Install...

    Breaking out of a Windows 2000 Setup

    First, a question about the original Win2kPro install: did you have fat32 or ntfs partitions? once you started the 'clean install' did you fdisk (fat32) or delpart (ntfs)then reformat? and run fdisk first, after reboot then fdisk /mbr ? Question about the ram... is it a single 512mb/pc133...

    File \ntknrlmp.exe cannot be loaded?

    Jakobud: I was having the same problem with a clean install of mine, same circumstances. I tried Strator's suggestion, win98 boot with fdisk /mbr... it cleared up my problem, and was actually able to boot from the cd at that point. Thanks a heap, Strator!
