  1. Well good, and if you do that, I'll post a picture of the mini van I've been stuck driving for the past couple of years...I'd rather have a bike!
  2. Yeah, hold your camera still.
  3. Have you resolved the raid driver issue? This: " PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_ARE", and this:" SAVRT.SYS-ADRESS F2413048..." whereas, not complete error messages, indicate to me that there are memory issues which can be caused by a number of things. One, could be the raid driver not properly functioning and causing your page file to be corrupted by an incomplete write. You get the errors, blue screen and lockups when windows tries to read what it thinks it has placed in memory. If that info is not there or is not in the same state as when it was written, then the puter locks up. The memory can be either physical ram or virtual (page file) that is causing the problem. This can be caused by a corrupted page file which we will need to delete. It could be caused by bad sectors on the HD, we can fix this too.It could simply be a fragmented HD. Do you or have you defragged your hard drive. If your drive is too full, it will not defrag properly, if at all. Did you check to see that your memory sticks are properly seated and locked. How many pieces of ram are in your machine, if more than one, are they a matched set, same type, equal value? There are a number of things that can contribute to this problem. You need to take them one at a time and make sure all is right. You cannot do this with everything installed. The best way to diagnose this is to reduce this machine down to basics and as each item checks out, add ONE thing at a time, reboot and check every thing. Push come to shove, I'll drop the firewall on one of my networks and we can do a remote assistance. Download Belarc Adviser; www.belarc.com, PM or email it to me and I'll look at you system to get a better idea of what might be going on. I can then be able to step you through this. But the first thing you have to do is address any uninstalled or disabled hardware devices. If you cannot load a driver, then remove the device. If the sound card driver is not working, remove the sound card, reboot and check everything else. Do not return a device until you have looked at everyhing else that might be causing a problem. But first answer the the questions above and run Belarc. B
  4. I'm going router and modem shopping tomorrow. Getting Linksys. Just had my Adelphia Premiere installation set up for Saturday afternoon. This wireless connection has been holding pretty strong at over 3 down and around 700 up, but I want a taste of the SIX!
  5. no doubt! ...either that or you hadn't actually disconnected from Limewire. Simply closing the program will not shut down all connections. By default, Limewire will stay connected to the network and continue to work on your searches, as well as share the files that you have designated as available, until you shut down the connections or close out windows. If you set it up again, be sure to read all the help files and go through all the menus to see all the options that are available. Limewire can be configured to be a relatively safe program to use. Running it with it's default settings though, will eat you up.
  6. My heart is freakin' bleedin' for you HaloBox. Is there anything we can do for you to help you through these troubling times?
  7. When I first started to drive, '68, gas was about a quarter a gallon, 32 cents for Sunoco 260. There were oiften gas wars between the stations in our town outside of Pittsburgh. You could get it as low as 15 to 18 cents. I worked at gas stations part time when I was in high school. Most people would pull in for 'a dollar's worth'. What's that now; .4878 gallon of gas
  8. I wasted about an hour at my local puter shop just gawkin' at all the new stuff the gamers are puttin' in their boxes. They have ram modules that light up as they write to memory! My daughter's been buggin me for a new puter, just might have some fun with it.
  9. click start, click run, type in 'regedit' for win2k a frame will come up, click on 'registry' then on 'export registry file' for Win XP click on 'file' then export a dialog box/ save as box will open. name it and save it. to restore from the file is just the reverse.
  10. Yeah, I just about crapped myself the first time I used it. It was born about two years ago. I went from a P3 650 to this. On its worst day it is 10 times faster than the old P3 rendering 3d models.
  11. These are XEON P4 2.4 HT. so they act like 4, produce speeds like four. Great graphics machine. Here's the baby
  12. very cool! organ_shifter.... here's mine, it doesn't light up, it just smokes. Not made for show....just GO! B
  13. Oskar, have you resolved the problem? If not, is this sp1 or sp2? do you have automatic updates enabled, if not have you gone to the site and checked for updated drivers? Have you added ram or had the case open, removed or otherwise screwed around in there possibly leaving something NOT properly inserted; ram, pci card, cables to HD or CDROM? If so, turn off your machine, disconnect the power cord, ground yourself to the chassis, and check to see that all connectors and cards are properly seated. If you find something loose, check everything else too, close it up, power up and restart. If not; Disconnect all external USB devices, EXCEPT keyboard and mouse, things like external drives, card readers, scanners, printers, etc. Reboot. If you still get a blue screen, go to CONTROL PANEL System Hardware Devices and look for problem areas. If there is nothing listed then re-attach each USB device one device at a time and reboot. Check the Hardware Devices list for problems. repeat until you find one. During this process you just may find the culprit, and windows may actually load the proper drivers. (you may have to supply set up disks for windows to find them) Do everything in order, and post back here. Note that windows will sometimes report that there is a device driver problem and the driver it needs is right there on the machine. It is reporting that there is a problem not because it doesn't have the correct driver but because the results it is looking for do not happen. If a driver is dependant on a device which is not properly connected, then it will cause windows to report errors. If a .DLL is missing or corrupt, and the driver cannot load, you may also get the blue screen. Luck B
