    chilly: A little more searching and I found this code: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex16/disableenter.htm It causes the enter key to act like the Tab key, when you hit the enter key it advances to the next text box. It worked great for me. Hope it works for you.

    Blank Screen with Blinking Cursor

    Update #2: For some reason, when the Welcome screen fades to the black desktop it reminded me of the secure desktop screen for UAC, hmmmm..... Just for the heck of it I disabled UAC from Safe Mode, rebooted, and viola, Vista booted right up to my desktop. Can't wait to see what happens when I...

    Blank Screen with Blinking Cursor

    Update: I have found a partial solution. I went to HP’s website and found that Recovery Console Command Prompt commands are available in Vista. I booted from the Vista dvd, system repair, command prompt, and ran the following: bootrec /fixboot bootrec /fixmbr and the system booted up to a...

    Blank Screen with Blinking Cursor

    This motherboard appears to have only to SATA ports numbered SATA2 and SATA4. The hard drive is already plugged into SATA2. Thanks.

    Blank Screen with Blinking Cursor

    Hello: This is a Compaq Presario SR5130NX, AMD Athlon 64, 1024 M RAM. Running Vista Home Premium. Was working fine a week ago. My niece took it to college and said it started “acting up”, then it wouldn’t start up at all. When I took a look at it I found that it boots to a blank screen with a...

    Hard Drive Light Stays ON Continuously

    Forgot to mention that I have been running Speedfan. It works ok at startup or after reboot for a while, then at some point it loses connection with the sensors, and all temps read 0 degrees. One more reason I'm leaning toward a bad motherboard. Also, as posted above, I have tried a new power...

    Hard Drive Light Stays ON Continuously

    Update: Further monitoring in BIOS indicated an error. Temps of cpu and system immediately shot to 112 degrees C and all voltages showed weird numbers. Other info: I have replaced HDD with a new one. Have also ran memtest - no errors shown. Have also tried a new PSU and new memory. Problem...

    Hard Drive Light Stays ON Continuously

    Thanks to all who have replied. System appears to run ok in BIOS hardware management, but locks up in Safe Mode. At this point I'm leaning toward a bad motherboard, had some issues with the cpu fan connector awhile back. The only other thing I haven't tried was Ben's suggestion. I'll try a new...

    Hard Drive Light Stays ON Continuously

    Hello. Not sure if this is a hardware or software problem but here goes. This is an eMachines D4362, P4 3.0 GHz, 1 Ghz RAM, Windows XP Home SP2. A week or so ago I noticed that after the computer runs for an hour or so it starts locking up, and the hard drive light stays on continuously. Also...

    Officejet not printing

    This is a new HP Officejet 5610. I purchased it from Staples a couple weeks ago and set it up and got it printing no problem. I didn't use it for a week or so, and yesterday tried to print something, and it just prints out a blank page. The computer recognizes the printer, and sends a print job...

    Can't Change Video Resolution

    Thanks to all who responded. I believe that Linney is correct in that when the onboard video plug got damaged, some additional damage to the motherboard was probably inflicted. Although there is no option in the BIOS to disable the onboard video, there is an option to set it to "pci", which I...

    Can't Change Video Resolution

    Linney: Yes, when I was using the AGP card, I had set the BIOS to AGP, and when using the pci, set the BIOS to pci.

    Can't Change Video Resolution

    Mike: I initially thought the same thing but the fact that two different video cards (1 pci and 1 agp) acted the same way made me thing otherwise. XP recognized both cards correctly and installed the native drivers. I guess it's worth a shot to try the manufacturer's drivers.

    Can't Change Video Resolution

    Linney: Tried what you suggested. Same result. Tried several different settings, it tells me my settings have been changed, do I want to keep them? I click Yes and Apply, but nothing changes. I've tried 2 different monitors, one of which I know supports higher resolutions, still get the same...

    Can't Change Video Resolution

    This is an HP Pavillion 304b running XP Home SP2. After a recent move, the onboard video plug got damaged. I installed 2 different video cards ( 1 agp and 1 pci) and have the same problem with both. The video resolution appears to be set to 800 x 640, even though it says 1024 x 768. I can change...

    Safely Remove Hardware

    No. The SATA drive is c:, an IDE drive is d:, and the cd/dvd is e:. No mapped drives or anything like that.
