    Computer won't boot - no video, 2 single beeps

    The other day, my computer suddenly stopped booting. I have an Asus P5Q Pro mobo, running AMI BIOS. When I power the box on, everything fires up (fans, disks, peripherals), but I get no video. I hooked up a case speaker, and the BIOS error code is a single beep ~5 seconds after powerup, and...

    Motherboard for a Q6600 - suggestions needed for an infrequent upgrader

    Thanks! That's kind of what I was thinking, as well... As for firewire, I'd like a built-in rear port. Headers would be nice, but not at all a requirement. If necessary, I can always add a PCI firewire card if a non-firewire board proves to be the best option.

    Motherboard for a Q6600 - suggestions needed for an infrequent upgrader

    I'm in the process of upgrading my pc for the first time in 4 years (ouch), and am trying to do it on the cheap. I have a line on a used Q6600 and 8800GT, and am looking for a motherboard to go with them. I've been reading through various forums today, but the amount of information is rather...

    Adding "open in Firefox" to Outlook context menu?

    On my work pc, I have IE defined as my default browser, due to a number of work-related sites not playing nice with Firefox. However, I frequently will have links that I would prefer to open in FF. Anyone know of a way to add an "open in Firefox" option in the Outlook context menu (right click)?

    Verifying a vid card died

    I had to move my computer tonight, and when I fired it back up in its new location, I had no video. Everything else seemed to be okay, and I could access the machine remotely - just no video. I'm in the process of trying to find a different monitor to test with... The vid card is a PNY...

    Bad cpu vs bad mobo

    I had a friend ask me to take a look at her PC, which will no longer boot. It's a premade system (Sony Vaio RS610), P4 2.8GHz. The pc will power up, and all the fans spin up, but that is all. No error beeps, no POST, no display. I have reseated everything possible, including the cpu and...

    PC -> HDTV

    So, I'm trying to hook up an old computer to my 55" LCD HDTV (for occasional web surfing/gaming), but am having some issues. I've never tried anything like this, so I'm not entirely sure what needs to be done (especially driver-wise) to get this to work. The vid card is a GeForce4 TI4400...

    Adding new SATA drive hosed my system! Help!

    I've had my system up and running for over a year with the previous disk config, and things have been great. Unfortunately, I went to add a new SATA drive today, and everything went to hell. :( I have an ASUS K8V SE Deluxe mobo. Previously, I had 2 drives in service - a 36G Raptor (SATA)...

    Can't format new 36GB Raptor

    NTFS. I had the disk connected to the VIA SATA controller, but I've since moved it to the Promise SATA controller. I have to create a one-disk array, which I don't really care for. So far, it's looking better than it did with the VIA controller, but I don't know for sure yet. Anyone know...

    Can't format new 36GB Raptor

    I am attempting to add a new 36GB Raptor to my system, and am having problems doing so. The BIOS recognizes the disk, and windows sees it as well (though, it lists it as "WDC WD36 SCSI Disk Device"). It's listed in disk management, and the capacity is properly recognized. FYI, I do have a...

    Changing boot drives - do I need to reinstall Windows?

    I'm finally getting around to dumping my SCSI subsystem, and am installing a WD Raptor for my boot drive. Do I need to reinstall Windows (XP Pro) when making this change? I'm not sure how big a change, driver-wise, this would be, and if Windows will be able to handle it. If I'm okay not...
