Maybe something simple, but I always check it. Look in Start -> All Programs -> Startup.
First, try going to Device Manager and uninstalling the DVD/CD drive. It will be automatically reinstalled when you reboot. If you have the Nero...
Maybe something has changed in the BIOS (startup configuration settings). Go into the BIOS at startup and choose to reset to the default settings....
Well done. Thanks for letting us know.
I see hawk22 as saying that it will not meet the requirements you are asking for. I haven't set up a three screen system before (as you can see...
Things have moved on. Of course the CPU is outdated, it has DDR RAM and now DDR3 has been almost completely phased in. As you said, EIDE is being...
Could be easier said than done. I don't look for P4 motherboards any more, they are very rare. You might be looking at replacing the main hardware.
The m/b manual will be available for download at the Asus website if you can't find it. A slight maybe, check through the FAQs at Asus. The manual...
I use a 17" CRT to run my game. It looks perfect on 1024 X 768 @ 60 Hertz, but I have pumped it up to 70 Hertz because Arie suggested it :D. When...
I tried to find the CPU compatibility, nope. Ha!, I thought, I will check any BIOS upgrades that usually allow for upgrading the CPU. Ha...Ha, no...
I can't add much. Read in the motherboard manual about "clearing the CMOS ". An Asus will have jumpers. See if you can borrow other RAM to...
UPS is an "uninterruptable power supply ", it has batteries that keep the computer working when the mains power has an outage. It allows you to...
If it is broken, getting data off it would probably be very (very) expensive. The only possible thing I could suggest is if you had access to...
Here are the jumper settings...
It sounds like you want to turn it into a gaming machine (3 monitors). OEM computers can be upgraded...modestly. They are built to a competitive...
The drive could be jumpered incorrectly. It may work if it is jumpered in another configuration. What is the model number of the HDD?
If it doesn't involve a UPS, you replace the CMOS battery or "Clear the CMOS ", it probably ends up as a motherboard problem.
You say you are using 800 X 600 on a 19" monitor, that would make things seem very large! Go to 1024 X 768, at least. You should be able to...
You say "odd size ", you may have an odd size selected for your graphics resolution. Mine or other default boxes I have worked on don't seem...
It probably has a default size and maybe a registry tweak could fix it (or break the computer :)). I would make a shortcut to the drive or even...
Separate names with a comma.
