MAC shutsdown randomly

Battery?...An external cmos battery I assume? The specs seem to suggest a 55W internal power supply so ... I don't know what the MTBF is for a mac power supply but since they stopped selling that model almost 5 years ago replace the power supply and see if that helps.

Problem with monitor?

What's your refresh rate set at? Do you have the latest drivers installed? Have you tried changing the source of power (different room or at least plug from a different room)? I don't know anything about Sytemax monitors but you should check their web site to see if you can get an online manual...

Stumped on the CD-ROMS :o\

Not to state the obvious here but ME is a picky little ^%Q#@ when it comes to drivers. Are you sure you have the correct set installed? What's your power supply? Do you have access to a higher one to see if that's the prob?

Newbie mouse problem old mb

I had this problem a couple of time with my old 133 system. Do you have a serial to ps2 adapter you can use? and have you tried switching serial ports? If so then I'd start looking at either mouse drivers, resource conflicts and see if you can get any serial device on the port you're using.

MSI 6337 mobo-NO POST- constant ALARM

What was the answer to Rusty's question on the fan wiring? If you only have two wires then I'd say Flash the bios and hope it defaults to not detecting your tach. Do you have a mobo book to reference? What do you think Rusty?

MSI 6337 mobo-NO POST- constant ALARM

Check out this thread. Your board hasa built in alarm for CPU overheating and fan tach signal so that would be my guess. Reviews say the board can be overclocked to +1.8 so 1.7 shouldn't be a problem. Do you have a better cooler you use to see if that would help?

Monitor powers on for about 2 seconds then shuts down...

Good points...I somehow read your message to mean you didn't even post. If that's not the case then there's no reason to start replacing parts. I finally figured out a problem I've been having with my new Dell System (I know, I know, I sold out, leave it alone...). Whenever I pushed the...

Monitor powers on for about 2 seconds then shuts down...

First two things I'd think of is that the power supply either just died on you or your switch is broken and is making complete contact. If you replace those two and it still does that then...Yo no se...Since you don't even get a post I'd say its either the first two or your mobo.

Is something wrong w/my monitor? Advice sought...

Hmmm... Did you get the model with the bug light in the back? Sounds like its time to dig out your waranty card. The problem is obviously phyiscal with the monitor so if its under waranty I'd call the manufacturer. Good luck.

Why don't I feel appropriately refreshed?

Sorry, perhaps I shou;d have added more detail. I have checked the drivers, gotten the updated ME drivers for the monitor and installed them. I took BadThad's advice from an earlier post and made sure that I wasn't using the microsoft default drivers. When the screen is booting it always...

Why don't I feel appropriately refreshed?

Alright I'm going to reseat the video card and sacrifice the appropriate ritualistic animals tonight but I still have not been able to kill this monitor bug. I hooked my new Dell (I know, I know I sold out...) up to an old POS monitor that I have from when 166 was fast just to see if it was the...

Hard Drive Question

I haven't played around with ME that much and I realize it wouldn't be nearly as quick as getting the slaved drive to work but could you use Microsoft's Direct Cable Connection to hook the two puters up and transfer your stuff?

Verifying DMI Poot Data Freezes after installing Promise Ultra66

Mascarab just had this problem, though not for the same reason I expect. With a new install I would suspect conflicting or incompatible drivers or a resource conflict. Are there updated drivers you could use?

PC wont boot w/ backup Hardrive installed

Could be a ghosting issue... My suggestion would be to put the drive back in the Dell and check its partitions. Do you have information you're trying to salvage on this second drive? If not then format and repartition the sucker. If the problem still occurs with a fresh HD then at least you can...

Determining ISP for an IP

I think most ISP's assign addresses dynamically so even if you know the ISP finding out who the address represented at that time may be more of a problem. Internic maintains a NameServe registry that may be helpfull to you at this location. Good luck

PC wont boot w/ backup Hardrive installed

Cams26, going back to what PELarson said. Did you check the partitions on both drives? I'm not sure what would happen if you had two drives with active boot partitions and can't check since I'm at work but that seems like a possibility. (Probably just boot off master but...?). This hard drive is...

System wont start up Help!

It looks like this is a not too uncommon problem. This seems to typically be a driver incompatibility issue so if you've installed any new hardware or updated your drivers that's probably the culprit. The other option is that this is a problem with your BIOS check out this link Link for some...
