    System shuts down after a few minutes

    About a week ago, one of my hard drives began acting up, so I removed it, and got a new one, did a fresh OS install, and once I verified everything was working, I plugged in my damaged drive to copy some data off of it. Everything worked fine, I got most of my data off the drive, and shut down...

    Ugh, torn between HP LP2475w, Dell U2410, and NEC EA231WMi

    It looks like the NEC only has one DVI connector. So would it be possible to connect both the ps3 and the computer to it at the same time? (Without using the vga connector) EDIT: whoops...just noticed it has a displayport connector too.

    Hard drive repair programs

    I recently used spinrite on 2 dead HDDs that I couldn't even boot into windows with. After running level 2 tests on both drives, I managed to boot into windows and recover most of the data on the drives.

    no display with new video card

    Nice :) According to the box, the card is a "Jupiter Digitial Geforce LX6600 256mb AGP". (i'm assuming the LX is supposed to be an FX..)

    no display with new video card

    Not sure of the model, its my bro's comp, but its not more than 3 years old. The machine that the card does work on, has a HEC 350w psu. Is there anyplace I can get the power reqs for a card of this type? I would guess a 3 year old dell would have at least that too...will try to find out...

    no display with new video card

    If it was the PSU, would the fan on the video card fail to spin up? On the machine that doesn't work, the fan spins up. Not sure what type of agp slot is on the motherboard. Its a dell if that helps. I'll try to find out tonight.

    no display with new video card

    My bro tried installing a 6600 (AGP) into his machine, and he says nothing shows up on his monitor when he starts up the machine. I just tried the card on an old comp I have here, and it works fine. I set it up the same way he did, with the monitor connected to the vga port, and hooked up...

    newbie question: Bios hangs on hardware monitor?

    I flashed to the 0309 bios (i have the vanilla p5b), still no luck though. Maybe it b/c I don't have my chassis fan connected to the chassis header? ahh well, its not a big deal, but would be nice to know why it doesn't work.

    newbie question: Bios hangs on hardware monitor?

    I just put together a new comp, with a asus p5b mobo When I boot and go into the bios, and goto the hardware monitor section, the comp seems to hang. I left it there for about 3-5 mins, and nothing. I don't know if this is related, but when I start up I get an error that reads: "Intel CPU...

    newbie question: which cable for which rail?

    Building my first computer, and I have an Antec SmartPower 450w powersupply. There are about 6 cables coming out of the power supply. Two with 4 pin molex connectors, two for sata, one 24 pin and one 4 pin for the motherboard, and a 6 pin for the video card. As I understand it, you are...
