    blue screen but not of death

    Thanks for the info Sylva. I will try this on the weekend when I have the time. I did a typo on the memory. It should have said 278 which I am interpreting as a bad memory chip. I had 2 256 meg boards in the computer. I also received the 3 beep error when I removed one of the memory boards...

    installed cd-rw - can only startup in safe mode - d: not shown up.

    When you bootup the system hit the f1, f8 or delete key(whichever one the system says will put you in the setup menu) and go in and find out what is listed as what. You may have two devices set as master in the setup and it is getting confused as to what is wanted. You can have the cable set...

    my pc itself reset as at 1 or 2 hours!!!

    1. Anything duron(amd) will have a tendency to run really hot. You may need a larger fan. 2.

    Making a CD Dupicator

    I believe the speed of the cpu and the speed of the burners would counteract each other and move at a slow slow pace or will just halt on you. If you do this it is very wise to use an offline duplicator. Check Tigerdirect or Computergeeks for one. If in California check a Fry's Electronics...

    blue screen but not of death

    I would if I could but it will not let xp in now. I do believe something has happened to the mb. I have other mb's and will try to replace that one and see what happens. Really weird. I now can't get the monitor to show the blue screen even. Just sits there. Thanks for the suggestion and I...

    blue screen but not of death

    I built my 4th computer now and when I turned it on for the first time it came up with windows xp with no problems. When I moved it to the computer room to connect it with the other computers in networking situation it gave me a blue screen with wording that says hardware has been added or...
