There are other things but they are minor. Some things I have no idea what they do.
I'm from the old school where Dell would let you customize your desktop.
Now I have to take whatever they offer. The precision will let you customize
somewhat but not completely.
Ex. I want a windows computer without windows 8.
I want a 1tb HD and they only offer 500mb.
They give you...
I tried another monitor and nothing.
I tried the "systemrecovercd" and it did nothing.
I tried a "Knoppix live cd" and it did nothing.
My knowledge of the connections of a MB is zero.
I can pull items from the MB but I would have no
idea what I am pulling.
The MB is a h-Joshua-h61-uatx...
Pardon me. I have two computers giving me trouble and I gave wrong information
for the HP. There is NO beep at all on the HP. I also tried another keyboard and
there was no change that I could see. I tried cntr/alt/delete and this did not shut
off the computer. I am plugging the keyboard...
The beeps are about 1 second long and 1 beep about
every other second. Yes I understand.
I tried PcLinuxOS and nothing happened. The DVD blinked
a few times and stopped.
Thank you.
If I have an add in video card, HP put it in the computer
when I bought it.
I tried to get a Linux boot cd but they all seemed to
come with an OS, which I don't want to mess up whatever
is left on my HD.
How can I get a Linux boot cd?
Not a sold tone. A never ending series of short beeps.
One of piece of information that might help:
I use Clonezilla-live to back up my HD. It starts cold and boots
into Clonezilla-Live. Clonezille-live will not boot on this computer.
Fans are working. Don't have the vaguest how to check...
Thanks guys for helping.
I swapped monitors and it made no difference.
The computer beeps continuously until I hit F1.
I have taken the battery out for a couple of minutes
and it made no difference. I also went out and bought a
new battery and that made no difference.
At this point I am...
Looks like "Easy Recovery Essentials" by Neosmart might do the job.
Only problem is it's a tad pricy to use just once - $20. AND I am not
absolutely sure it will fix my computer.
Thank you for replying Eulogy.
I don't know what a "post" screen is but my monitor is
black if that is what you mean.
I can not get into BIOS or anything else.
I do not use Linux.
I have a HP pavilion p7-1380t. (about 2 years old)
I have tried all suggestions found on the web and none work.
Have tried various boot up programs and they don't work.
When I boot up here is what I see: black screen, mouse only
flashes for a second, "F" keys do nothing, DVD flashes for a...
Thanks for your help.
I removed the PT628.
I removed the CMOS battery for an hour then plugged it back in.
Lights come on in the front of the computer, the monitor light is on,
I see the dvd player blinking and NOTHING else.
Can't access BIOS.
Tomorrow I'm going to buy a new battery but...
Thanks for any advice.
I have a p7-1380t HP. I was playing around with a device to let me dual
boot without dual booting software. Now the computer will not boot up.
I think I fried the motherboard but am not sure.
Here is what happens when I press the power button. The fans start up,
the...
Not sure where I should put this. If you move it please tell me where...
1st let me say I do NOT have the skills to build my own desktop.
I am afraid of these out of the country computer mfgs.
It's becoming rather hard to find companies that make desktop computers.
Dell for instance won't...
This is a device to allow switching from one HD to another without dual
booting. Can't find any diagrams to help me connect it.
I have a picture of the device but can't post on this forum.
I have no idea if this is in the right forum.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
First let me say I have no idea where to put this message.
If you move it please let me know where.
I had a pavilion p7-1380t which when testing Windows 10
in my infinite wisdom managed to fry the motherboard.
This is what I think happened.
So I dug up my old Dell GX80 running Windows...
Thank you for responding Skillz.
I tried modifying my previous diagram using the [ ] and had no luck with it.
I created a JPG image with paint and then copied it but this site would
not let me paste it inline.
I don't know how to proceed.
I can give you the text without the rectangle...
Thanks guys for responding.
I'm not sure I have the skills to make one myself.
The drives I have are NOT SSDs.
Of course the abswitch has 3 terminals. 1 for power to the abswitch.
2 for connections to each HD.
The real problem is the connectors. They must identical to the ones
used in my...
I have included a picture of the device I need.
As far as I know there is no such animal. I
hate dual booting and the problems that go
alone with it.
Sure would appreciate some advice on how, and
where I could get this made. If I have not made
something clear, please post it here and I...
I find it rather disserting that companies can't find an economical way to produce
these TVs. We can go to the moon but not find a way to do this. Pity.
Maybe a lot of time will change all this.

1st let me state that I consider myself an informed customer
and not an expert.
Hhgregg has an LG Oled tv in their store.
A word like "WOW" seems inadequate to describe the picture of this tv.
More appropriate would be "STUNNING".
The salesman was an idiot as...
I just love my OKI mb451w B/W all in one laser printer. It hasn't let me down yet.
Something I can not say for HP printers. Cost was very reasonable. I am not
annoyed with endless ads or bad software like I was with HP.
There is a very interesting and technical article on the oled-info.com/oled-tv
web site. It's about the development of printing OLED TV screens.
Looks like a year or so for them to get up to speed.
I'm sure there are people here that can understand what they are talking about.
I hope someone...
Thought so. Thanks for verifying my suspicions.
Seems to be a good model to go by when 1 monitor is
hundreds less than lets say a Dell Ultra sharp and this
cheapie there has to be a reason.
Tiger-Direct is offering this monitor for $130 dollars.
24", 1920x1080, 16:9, 40000000:1, 5ms
How can this be? The price alone worries me as much as
a Hanns monitor.
Can someone elaborate how Graphene will effect the new OLED tech in Tvs.
Will it bring down the price drastically soon?
Will it help solved the Blue deterioration?
Can it be used instead of the OLED existing tech.?
Please in layman terms.
Made a call to Oki support and 99% of my problems were solved.
Generally I am very pleased with the printer.
Sturdy, price can't be beat for a printer of this quality.
If I would gripe about this printer it would be the documentation.
As always there is always room for improvement.
These...
Best I can tell is the Oki MB451w takes 220v. I don't have any 220v connection
in the house. It is Model# MB451w Model # n22207b.
According to the specs this is for 220v.
Who ever heard of a printer using 220 volts.
I haven't plugged it in yet so no harm to the printer but the hassle of...
Hi DesertCat,
Just info. Since you were so kind, I wanted to tell you what I did.
Bought the Oki MB451 mfc b/w LED Printer.
Directions look very complicated.
All caused by a whole lot of abbreviations which I know nothing about.
Will take it 1 step at a time. They talk a lot about...
Brothers site is a nightmare.
I am looking for an LED Printer. This is not a LASER Printer.
It needs to be b/w and MFP.
Do they make one? If not who does with the same specs?
