Hi,Are all hard drives listed within the bios?

fullt format and fresh install is probably the best method. But I would first of all slave your hard drive in a spare machine and run HD Tune or HD Tache and check the hard drive for read speeds, you should be averaging out around 35-45MB/s but all depends on what disk your using.

Hi you've got a no post, could be anything from, motherboard, cpu, ram, graphics card, power supply unit, cpu fan. do you get any error beep codes? or if you have an onboard post LED whats the code displayed? I would also check your reset cmos jumper is not set to clear.

Hi, It all depends wether your motherboard has an onboard speaker or LED poster. If it does have an onboard speaker and your getting no beep codes generally a sign of a faulty bios chip/motherboard. The bios will give out error codes for the following faults: CPU,Ram, Graphics card, Power supply...

your correct you have 4 Dimms, but each Dimm will support more than 1GB of ram. judging from the screens you've got 1GB installed in Dimm 0, so basically your system is running in single channel configuration when it is most likely capable of dual channel configuration (twice the bandwidth). I...

try shorting the power switch pins on the motherboard control panel could be a faulty power switch.

What brand PSU and power output? having an underated PSU can cause your system to run well below standard.

Hi, your problem is most likely because your using a 40 pin IDE cable instead of an 80 pin IDE cable, alot of IDE devices don't like a 40 pin cable and will cause the device to not be listed as connected to the IDE controller in the bios. So try a 80 pin IDE cable.

Really annoying problem(s) uninstalling pci sound card, reverting to onboard soun Hi, when you go to add/remove programs your just removing the software for the sound card the drivers are kept elsewhere most likely in windows folder/ system 32/ drivers. I take it once you enabled the onboard...

Yep single layer cell are what you want but more expensive than multi layer cell. I would still think it's better to go for a pair of western digital raptors in a raid 0. These ssd's are very unreliable and do have alot of issues. But if your still determined to buy an ssd here's a disk...

Hi thanks for your reply. There are two types of N 150mbit and 300mbit. And i've got a 300mbit adapter and wireless router. I'm still thinkin it's down to sitecom being shit and having no firmware update for their adapter and also no good drivers. The damn adapter doesn't even work with...

Hi, Jewfro is right. When you've extended the bus from the usb header are they just a single block connector or multiple single connectors labled up e.g. +5 (1) + 5 (2) etc? There are two ports per header so basically should go like this: +5 (1) +5 (2) d- (1) d- (2) d+ (1) d+ (2) ground...

have you tried another power brick? battery? uninstalling the battery and just using the power brick to power the laptops? could be a fault with the power input on the motherboard.

Hi yes it will still work but your PCI-Express x16 controller is 1.0 not 2.0 so it will run at a lower bus frequency of 2GB/S (x8 mode) instead of 4GB/s (x16 mode) so your motherboard is limiting the cards performance.

Hi all got a problem with the Sitecom wl344 x2 wireless N usb adapter. The adapter connects to the wireless network as it should but it's capable of speeds of 300mbit so in theory should connect about 270mbit, but it only connects at 135mbit, I've tried two different drivers windows seven...

core i7 is a much better choice and more future proof. Go for Windows 7 64bit OS. No windows 7 32bit won't utilise all 4GB of ram 3.2 at most.

Hi, when you say you've done a bios flash you mean on the motherboard or the Two cards? or all of them?

Have you checked your motherboards memory support list? There shouldn't be a problem according to the specs of yout motherboard it supports 1333mhz ddr3 non-ecc unbuffered, so the ram you bought in theory should work, but you shouldn't mix memory modules it can cause problem. I've also noticed...

Hi, yes once the game/program has been exited the space it's used will free up as the game/program is no longer required to be running in RAM.
