i am planning to reformat my pc because of a virus...
but the problem is there are some files in my C: that i want to retrieve some files first before reformating... another prob is i cant access the pc cause the virus stops windows startup...

a window says that it can be resolved by inserting the windows cd and attempt a repair...

will it work....?
so you have any suggestions on how to retrieve my files...

one more thing, i misplaced my windows cd... so i bought a new one with sp2, will it work?
my former windows doesnt contain sp2 in the cd...

thanks...

I bought a new computer last month with a Gigabyte GA-M55plus-S3G/2.1 Motherboard and 2 sticks of Kingston HyperX 512 MB DDR II 800 Ram.

I noticed yesterday during my boot sequence that the memory is only being recognised as 667 Mhz. Upon taking the computer to my supplier's lab, they told me that my bios version was causing the problem and they needed to upgrade that.

Four hours later they had still not solved the problem. Being a fairly proficient user myself, I would rather solve the problem on my own.

Is the BIOS the problem and if so, where and how do I update it?

Thanks

Ever since I got a new Hard Disk, my computer has noticeable slowdowns and freezes, and basically is unstable. I have no idea about the speed of my drive, but the old one had 35 gigs, and the new one had 75. There is a three year gap between the two HDs.

i'm thinking of formating my laptop!
though the thing is i dont have any of the driver's cds..
the good thing is i bought a software online tht could backup all used drivers to anywhere i want to so i guess tht problem is solved..
though the thing is im worried bout the special features tht the laptop has!
like showing me the temperature of the cpu and so on..
and using the keyboard shortcuts.. like (play/stop/www/refresh/search/favorites/mail/mute/my computer/calculator)

and those softwares tht help me set a profile for the laptop when its on electricity or using just its batteries...

I installed Windows XP and after a few months of use, the hard drive got corrupted and I wasn't able to retrieve data. Then I bought a new hard drive and installed Windows again, this time a few months later it happened again. I installed Ubuntu Linux on it this time (full format) and soon after, GNOME would not boot, but I was able to enter a text based safe mode in Linux. Anyhow, I'm wondering if I've been having bad luck with hard drives, or if it could be another problem, such as bad jumper settings on my motherboard or overclocking or what not.

Thanks.

Or leave it like it came when i bought the computer ? Also the new one? does it have to be set to slave or something? Are the jumper placement important in this matter?

Here's the deal. I am in a newly created position where I work out of a satelite office. I bring my personal laptop to work, as my position entails MANY duties with a computer that would take too long to explain-- letters, fliers, posters, email, research, etc. Our school director at first said I could come to the school once in a while to do computer work, which is just CRAZY. So, until they could justify the budget, I said I'd bring my own from home.

Now that I have been in this position six months and have shown the need for it-- I brought it up again. How silly is this for crying out loud-- I have to make a list of 20 reasons to justify the need for a computer. Are you kidding me? At any rate, I have listed my specific things I do on the computer..... I am looking for some other answers-- such as any laws about personal computers containing company info (do I own it?), etc. Things that will wow them.

Thanks so much!!

I got a computer with the following specification:

Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4600+ 2.2 GHz
2048MB PC2-4200 DDR2 SDRAM memory
Asus A8M2N-LA Motherboard

It comes with a GeForce 6150 LE chipset. (Err...and has a GeForce 7500LE 256 MB graphic card)

I played Oblivion on it and it runs pretty smooth on Medium, but it kinds of started to lag a bit when it's on high.

I want to be able to play Oblivion at Maximum quality, so I'm thinking of getting the Geforce 8800GTS 640 MB PCIe Video card. Will this be compatible with my computer's configurations?
