Hey everyone, I was hoping you guys could help me figure out what's wrong with my computer... there really isn't much to go on as I can't even boot but I'll give as much info as I can. I have the exact computer in my sig (C2D E6400, Gigabyte mobo, 3GB RAM, 8800GT, and 500W PSU) I built it...

Right now I have a very simple Javascript image array along with an image on the page and buttons that control the script This is for a web gallery of photographs, basically a picture in the center with a Back and Forward button to cycle through them. I also have an actual thumbnail...

I hope this is the right place to post this, I checked the FAQ and read the information posted about Blue Screens but it seems pretty outdated and none of the links work. Anyways, just recently I've been getting blue screens at boot up - as far as I can tell I only am getting them on a fresh...

Currently on my computer I am running VIsta and XP in a dual boot situation... however I haven't had a single issue with Vista since I installed it and have only ever gone back to XP if I wanted to run a program I had installed on that drive (and didn't feel like reinstalling in Vista right...

Alright, thanks for all the replies... From what I understand I can mix them but the one pair would have to either be sped up or slowed down to accommodate the other so they're running at the same speed. Best bet would be to set my memory to run at 4-4-4-15 with 2.1V in my CMOS then? I know...

Does anyone know? Two pairs of DDR2 RAM running dual channel. One pair is timed at 4-4-4-12 and one pair is timed at 4-4-4-15... possible?

Well, they'll be running in separate sets so I'll have two 4-4-4-12 running together in dual channel and then, beside them, two 4-4-4-15 running together in dual channel.

When I recently built my PC I put a set of two 512MB DDR2 PC6400 memory in there (for a total of 1GB). I am planning to upgrade soon though and place a pair of 1GB sticks in there (2GB for a total of 3GB in my system). However the RAM I have now is timed at 4-4-4-12 with a 2.1V rating and the...

Like I said, I'm not doing an in-place upgrade. I am doing a clean install, it basically works by taking your entire Windows and moving it to a folder called "Windows.old", it erases everything else and installs the operating system as though it was a freshly formated drive. Anyways, I...

Well, the first time it happened I manually rebooted the PC and when it restarted it immediately went to the Windows XP recovery mode and restored my computer to what it was before. I'm not trying to run the "upgrade" process, that isn't even available with XP Pro, I am simply going through...

Anyone have any recommendations? I can give more information if needed

My PC specs are in my sig, I have a 250GB SATA as my one and only hard drive, a very generic CDRW/DVDROM drive. I just got Vista, I am trying to upgrade my version of Windows XP Pro 32bit to Vista Home Premium 32bit. I go through the installation setup and run the tool that checks whether my...

Nice post, I'll definitely try with what I have, it's more of a lack of cash than a lack of desire to upgrade my memory immediately. I have some impending bills that may or may not be expensive. So, what's the deal with the Nvidia drivers? Are they simply a little slower for Vista or do they...

Well, I hear that alot and can run games like Company of Heroes, Oblivion, BF2142, FEAR, etc... maxed settings with absolutely no issues (emphasis on the 'absolutely'). Really it was the reason I was asking, as some people insist gaming on 1GB of RAM is near impossible today when I'm just as up...

I recently was able to buy Vista Home Premium for $40, when it arrives I was wondering if I should dual boot it with my current working copy of XP Pro or just do a fresh install on the entire hard drive. I currently am running on one single physical drive with no partitions and would have to...
