I get to specific point during the game and it crashes 100% of the time. It happens when I try to display a massive amount of units on the screen at once, (though during a different point in the game I was able to view over 1000 at a time...didn't crash just incredible slow down.) Throws me...

Ok...this is gonna sound weird. It works now. Before it happened at the end just before it asks to partition the drive. I let it sit there for a good hour and half. Then just now I force restarted (for the 3rd time) and boom, it worked :confused: sorry for the trouble

Doing a first install on a new build. XP stops on "setup is starting windows" and just sits there. I just assembled this machine the specs are listed below AMD Athlon 64 3500+ 1 GIG DDR RAM 120GB SATA HD K8N Neo4-F 16x dual layer DVD burner Geforce 7900GT 256MB Video card Any help...

Never played morrow wind, to be honest was turned off by the seer amount of reading that was in that game. Oblivion is good so far, graphically stunning for sure but the game just doesn't have that special something to really make it great. Enemies level up with you so eventually there is no...

Looking for a decent processor for gaming and am deciding between these two AMD 64 Athlons. The only difference I can find is that one is advertised as a Venice and other doesn't say anything. The price diff between the two is about $70.00. Below are the manufacturer SKU #s and the links to...

Do I need to worry about this setting if my motherboard is PCI Express, I don't even have an AGP slot, so why is this setting on and do I need it on?

It started happening about a month ago, but it's starting to bother me now. Every time I open a window on my machine I get this "scrambley" crap on the corner. Like interference or something. It doesn't show up very good when I'm on the desktop, or at all in games save one...Spider solitare...

I can't get the screen cap to work, what you would see is the task manager selected in the task bar but no window on the screen and will only appear if maximized. Sorry I'm not being very helpful :(

Ok, I turned on my computer this morning and it is messed up. Programs open and appear in the start bar but the windows won't appear on the screen unless I maximize them. If the program windows appear at all they are off to the side, jammed up in a corner off screen so I can't move them. I...

Ok, I'm looking to buy a new laptop...or used. This is your basic college laptop, need it for writing papers, internet/email/chat, play dvd movies and wireless capabilities. To the tune of, between $500-600 or lower. Good condition. Any quick responses would be greatly appreciated :D

I recently bought an Albatron 6800GT PCI Express Graphics Card I installed it and it worked fine until I got an error message one day that said, "Not receiving enough power, card has gone into a low power state to prevent from being damaged." I looked into my manual and thought the problem was...

Yeah that had been locked down. I had followed the installation instructions exactly.

If you're referring to the thing that snaps in place to lock the heatsink ontop of the processor then yes.

What do they use now? If they don't use this stuff any more is there a non-stick thermal gel that is used? If so what would you recommend?

ok I installed an AMD 3200+ into a K8N Neo4 motherboard. It came with a heat sink and fan and that heat conductive gel. Well the motherboard was bad and I had to remove my processor. When I tried to pull the heat sink away after I removed the claps that held it in place, it didn't want to let...

Ok, I have a Dell Dimensions XPS. I have two hard drives, an 80GB and a 120GB one is serial ATA and the other is Ultra ATA. I'm copying a bunch of files from one hard drive to the other and the CPU usage jumps to 99%. When I'm playing Warcraft3 the same thing happens CPU goes between 85 and...

Just tried with a PS2 Keyboard and it didn't work. Quick question: When I reset the CMOS (manual calls it an SW1 clear button). The wording it uses is a little weird. "Press the button in the middle of the connector top side to clear the data."

Does it matter if it's a USB keyboard with a PS2 adapter? I tried it that way and it was a "no go."

My mother board has a button that clears the CMOS settings, pressed it a couple of times and nothing happened. I have been trying to install the BIOS and I have to hit the "del" key to get to the setup menu but I can't because my keyboard won't work. It just doesn't seem to be getting power...

No effect... :(
