The other night my computer forze up so I did a manual shut down. when I turned it back on the Windows Selection Screen comes up I have tried all of the start up options with the same results I hit enter and the computer shuts down again. I figured it was a problem with Windows so I tried to boot the Windows CD it starts checking the system configurations and shuts down again. the CPU is running at 79 degrees C I took off the fan and heatsink cleaned them off dust I did notice that the stuff that goes between the heatsink and Processor is dry . . . could that be a problem? and if so what is that stuff called?

I do alot of typing for my job at the moment and im constantly having to click the mouse to highlight, copy and paste a word.

I know there are certain keys on the keyboard you can press to do this instead of using the mouse.

Any ideas what they are?

Thank you

I took the HD from another computer and added it to my current one through an external connection. This worked well, but it only migrates info between the 2 drives that isn't password protected. The external drive has Windows XP Home on it, my pc has XP Pro. I can migrate to an extent, but the external drive was password protected, the internal is not. There seems to be no way I can get the password page to come up so I can access my files on the external while using the internal Pro... If I boot from the external, it would seem that I can then enter the password and get my stuff out. Help would be appreciated.

Hello: this is very puzzeling to me. My Desktop was working great, then i updated my nvidia driver (FX5200) 128 mb, then my computer started acting weird. When i turn it on it won't show nothing on the monitor, then I power it off and back on and it shows just fine. This happened a few times, PC only comes on after i hold power button for over a min. Then the numbers of restarting started to increase. Then the PC stopped turning on alltogether. I unplugged it and click switch off from the back, and tried and tried, it powered on back just fine, but now it will not show on my monitor, i have pushed and held that button for over 60 times and it just won't show anything on my monitor. ANY IDEA????
Thanks

It will play videos but not sounds. If it helps when I open iTunes it says "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly." It is a Gateway laptop. It has speakers in it. When I try to turn it up it says no audio devices installed. Somebody please help!!!

I have purchased a gateway laptop (MT3708) and would like to upgrade its RAM. My question is can I use almost any 1 gig Dimm which is DDR 533(PC2 4200) in this system. I was thinking of using the Crucial module on http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?ATT=0&CMP=AFC-SlickDeals&Submit=ENE&N=2000260381+1309221133+1309121113&name=1GB

The corsair memory selector recommended Part No. CT672814 1GB, 200-pin SODIMM to me.


At one point, I believe that RAM was very specific to each system, thus when not purchasing it, you had to go through the manufacturer. I'm not sure if those days are over.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Zorba
