Hello, I have a Compaq Desktop CPU. It's about 3 years old now. I recently put in a brand new ATI Radeon video card into it. I had it professionally installed and now, everytime I run the computer, it restarts or the monitor will cut off. I purchased a new Monitor about a month ago. Its brand new, so there should'nt be any problems with it. Any ideas about what could be wrong with it? I've been told it may be overheating, and that the power supply isn't enough or it's broken. I'm at lost of what to do with it now. Can anyone help me out with this?

I have a client who uses his laptop in the car. When he is driving down I95 in Philly (between Cottman and Bridge streets), his PC reboots. This happens at the same spot every time. Anyone know why something like that would happen?

I would like a rom device that is unalterable that can be used to boot up and go on the internet without fear of anything being done to alter my main hard drive, That way we could do our banking without fear of keyloggers and other spying. Are you with me fellow computer users?

While reformatting and reinstalling my system the other day, I was in the windows xp set-up blue screen and I accidentally removed the partition my 200GB back-up drive. As soon as I realized, I shut off the computer and unplugged the drive, since it hadn't been reformatted and I knew I could resotre the data.

OS and main drive are fine, data has been recovered, but now I can't initalize the back-up drive correctly. I thinks its 131GB. I thought the MBR might have become corrupted since I interrupted windows setup program while the drive was plugged in but I can't seem to fix it. I've tried fixmbr, I've tried booting with win98 cd to run fdisk, but it says the drive is invlalid, both while it was formatted as a 131gb drive, and while it was unallocated space.

I'm out of ideas to try. Any thoughts?

What could be the reason? I have tried everything but it is no use because it can't recognise the drive.

Hello all!

My sister-in-law has killed her computer. She needs to do a system restore, but doesn't want to lose all of her pictures, etc. Is there any solution that will let me take her hard drive out of her PC, attach it to mine w/out me opening mine up to do it? Is there some sort of USB->ATA connector I can get? Or, will I have to get an enclosure to do this?

Thank you much!

I ejected a movie and it made a sort of sputter sound then ejected the disc. I place a different DVD in and nothing happened. I restarted my computer and again nothing. So I placed my fingers on the drive and I could feel (and barely hear) a few thumps but I notice the disc wasn't spinning. According to windows everything kosher! Is it possible to have a drive fixed? Or do you just have to replace it? It's only a few years old!!!! >:(

I used to scan my photos, and then saved them in my pic album. For some reason, about a week ago, after scanning them, (the same size pix) and saving to the same album, they now show up as thumbnails. I've contacted my scanner manufacturer, and reinstalled the entire program. I don't think it's my scanner, but rather Windows application that's opening it. I've tried, PhotoShop, Paint, Paperport, etc. and I can resize the photo to normal size using them, but if I try to save it like that, (the normal size) they still show up small??? There must be someway to restore the original settings, so I don't need a magnifying glass to view them......HELP!
