DELPART is a separate utility that you can dowmload (Google should find it) and run from a DOS boot disk.

Sometimes you need to use DELPART to ensure all partition info is removed prior to running recovery utilities. If that doesn't solve it you may find the following website useful - it seems to have...

It certainly sounds like either a short or distortion. You may already have tried all of this but how about the following:-

Put a washer under each screw so as to reduce the distance they go in...

Like most above I too have never seen a situation where a cable has overidden the jumpers (having played with PCs since before they were commercially launched in the UK!). Came acorss the following...

This seems to have become a common problem recently, Presumably due to some Microsoft patch or other. It affects all the PCs I know with Datakeeper. Some more frequently than others. I found a...

I use a Sapphire Radeon 9600 Pro Atlantis that is stable and no fan.

I came to the conclusion in the end that the User profile had somehow become corrupted although everything else was OK. So, restored to previously know good state from a backup and all is well.

Nope - that made no change. I think it must be a driver or service but do not know which.

I am experiencing a really odd problem with USB Flash Drives. They work OK in all other machines running Windows 2000, XP and XP Pro that I can find but on my R50P Thinkpad running Windows XP Pro...

Are you overclocking your processor? If so it may be struggling or perhaps your power supply is struggling.

Sorry - It obviously depends on what type of raid

Alternatively a quick and dirty check where the raid array is simple is to pull one of the disks and see what happens. If system won't boot then the other disk is bad. If it boots then the...

Not so much a suggestion, rather a question. What anti-virus and firewall are you using?

Do you have digital CD Audio enabled for both? Does one have an old style sound cable from the CD drive to the sound card rather than digital CD audio?

Hi Greengoose. I must be paranoid then. I do my backups before I clean out my disk and certainly (since an inconvenient power failure a few years ago) before defragging any disks.

As Atmelflash says, it is all to do with the number of concurrent applications and their type. For example if you do sophisticated multilayer drawings in Photoshop you can benefit from as much RAM...

I would use 1024x768 @80 or 85Hz.

Very, very few people can detect flicker above 80 Hz and 1024x768 I find is a comfortable setting for 17" but....

Lets do a recap - please confirm the following

Power supply - new
Motherboard - new
CPU - new
RAM - original but passes tests
Disk - original but passes tests
CD-ROM - original but works on...

Before abandoning the motherboard I suggest you try clearing the BIOS. Usualy there is a jumper on the board for this.

I suggest you check your RAM. I had a similar problem recently and it turned out to be a bad stick of RAM.

Last time I saw something like this both drives had been jumpered as Master. Check the drive jumpers are still as they should be.

Also, when you boot from the XP CD into the command prompt, can...

It sounds like the PC is going into Hibernate or Standby rather than shutting down. Once you shutdown your PC then unplug the power cord for a few minutes. Once you plug it back in does moving the...

I have recently had a very similar problem again with an Asus board and Kingston memory. It turned out that it was a bad stick of memory. Suggest you try another memory stick or one of the memory...

Thank you - I have been looking for something like this.
