This one would be your best bet; it comes with all the software and directions you'll need.
Hi rosha, Thanks for the update. Hope you'll let us know how the build goes; sounds like your first. :o Hope you're successful. Best of...
Rehi Rocksrer2U, Thanks for the vote of confidence; coming from you it really means something! I found an interesting web page for anyone...
mattman, I keep a couple of inexpensive video boards around for testing purposes. :D
I agree, matt. I suggested that earlier, but maybe it should be done now if it hasn't been, before going to a new mobo. Up to rosha, of course.
Rockster2U, mattman, and rosha, It seems to me that the problem in this machine is with the 'north bridge' portion of the chipset, part of the...
It certainly won't hurt to follow all the helpful suggestions from Rockster2U and mattman because each has years of experience, as do I. Of...
Hi Rockster2U, I know that's advised, but I usually just turn off the psu where there's a switch, or unplug it and ground the case, and have...
Now you're getting somewhere! That's the way to test. Now carefully examine the small fan on the motherboard (cools the "chipset ") to see if...

Thanks PeteC, I've had it sitting around but hesitated to try it on the computers that come thru here. Now I'm going to. :D

Whew! That's better, but not much. :) Then check your manual: is the video onboard or a separate card? Can the onboard videw be turned off...
No beep. This can indicate that the CPU is dead and the machine won't POST. IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO REBUILD THE COMPUTER! I wouldn't try a new...
No beep indicates a very serious problem, usually, unless it never did beep, which would mean it was defective from the start. If it's under...
Hi rosha, Your tech undoubtedly knows better, and just tossed that pearl off the top of the head to get you thinking about bringing the machine...
Hi martinr121, Nope. Have to remove partition and then make two or more in the same space. Believe partition magic can do what you wish, but...
HI charlesvar, Been so long since he posted the log, thought I'd take a crack at it online. Been cleaning up boxes here, so getting some...
Suggestions: these are what I'd do if this were my box. :o Run hijackthis with all other windows closed and have the program remove the...
