I am not sure if this is a software or hardware problem. I am using Windows XP Home with a Pentium 4 processor and Asus P4C800-E Deluxe motherboard. Basically, after selecting start and turn off, I get the hour glass. After several minutes I selected Shutdown on Task Manager. Then I get the...
Thanks for your replies. I reset the CMOS by removing the battery for 10 minutes as described in the motherboard manual. I also tried moving the RAM sticks around again. But, I regret to say, no change. I sent a query to Intel's tech site yesterday, but because of the holiday I do not expect...
Okay, I moved the sticks around. This board has dual channel configuration so one must use matched pairs. In fact, when I use only one stick in all the four different slots, I do not get the "beep..." bit, but 1 to 2 seconds after the power is applied and the fans start, it just shuts down. I...
Thanks for your reply. My motherboard is an Intel D875PBZ and the manual's only comment on a sequence of short beeps after turning power on is "may indicate that there was a problem during DDR SDRAM memory device detection. Check to ensure system memory is properly installed." How do I do that"?
I tried to turn on my computer one morning only to find nothing happened when I pushed the "on" button. Presuming a power supply problem I subsequently purchased and installed a new power supply. Then when I selected "on" again, the fan ran for 1 to 2 seconds and then the power shut itself...
How do I change the language XP uses in the address bar, buttons, dialog boxes,etc? I know Windows XP is available in languages other than english, but can I change it myself somehow on the english language XP I purchased in the US, or must I buy another, language, version?
How can I change the drive letters on my hard drives in WindowsXP which have system volume and/or boot volume? Please don't suggest I RTFM, I don't have one and "help" is not helping. Thanks.
Gee, I never would have thought of looking at the manual. In fact, the manual is even less helpful than most of the replies I got on this thing. Although there were several who gave me the benefit of the doubt and believed that I probably considered the manual's guidance before going to the...
I just finished building a PC using an Intel D875PBZ w/HT and a WaveMaster CoolerMaster case. However, I have a problem. I cannot get the 1384, USB, or Audio connections on the top of the case to work. I suspect I don't have them correctly connected to the mobo. Can anyone tell me where I...
