Windows BSODs immediately after startup

Tried reinstalling drivers and got nothing, so I just bit the bullet and reinstalled WindowsXP. Seems to work just fine, I will need to reconfigure the wireless and let my mother start using it again. Hope there are no problems. Thanks for the help everyone!

Welcome all new TeAm AnandTech members ...

Hey everyone, I just rejoined the TA F@H team. I was a member before, but that was probably years ago. My old points/Wus/whatevers were still there, so that was pretty cool. :) My hobbies have shifted from computers to cars since I was an AT regular, but I try to swing by every once in a...

Uhoh - Athlon XP performs worse when memory is faster than cpu bus?

Just an FYI, that 1700+ could be a great overclocker. Mine hits 190fsb without a hiccup on an NF7-S (nForce 2 400-ultra). It can go farther, but my cooling isn't great (just bought a Vantec Aeroflow, need to find my thermal paste).

Fingerprints

I'm not sure what I'd use on a PC, but on an automotive finish, I'd use a quick-detailing spray and a microfiber towel. Might be a little extreme, but I bet it'd work. :)

LOL DVD Rewinder 21.99

My grandfather still uses a VHS rewinder. I'd buy him a DVD player, but I think it's better that he stays with the tech he's familiar with. Great product. :)

Configuring a video editing PC

Thanks again guys. High-end editing software is out of the question. He doesn't want to spend a grand on the PC, much less the software. And as I said, he's an amateur, so going high end simply isn't worth it (did I mention that we're teenagers? $800 is a lot more to a student working a...

Configuring a video editing PC

My friend isn't using a DV cam, although I told him that one would be a good investment. As for HDDs, would putting the OS and apps on a seperate partition be good enough? For example, if I put in two 160gig drives in, and set up a 40gig partition for system files, would it be good enough as...

Configuring a video editing PC

Oh yeah, I forgot to say hpw he'll be using it. He's a real amateur, so he's not going to be shooting for pro or semi-pro. He'll be ripping from a Hi-8 Camcorder, so the quality wont be stellar. I'm not sure what he'll want to do with the finished video, but I threw in a DVD burner so that he...

Configuring a video editing PC

A friend of mine is looking to get in to video editing. His current PC is an ancient P2-400, or something in that range. Needless to say, he's looking to buy a new box. He was looking at pre-builts, but I told him his dollar would go farther if he built it himself (well, if I built it for him)...

Xoxide.com X-hour 6/27/04!

This is great for buying Bawls. :) I missed the last free shipping because the Super Bowl was on (I know they planned to have their best X-Hour during the Super Bowl). Shipping on Bawls can cost just as much as the Bawls itself.
