I have bought a program which operates at 32 bit. I had to install the printer cable for its output on a serial port. The software maker said that the port may be good for only 16 bit. Right now, program won't run from the port. Just how do I know whether this is the problem and just how...

I got a friends computer to put a modem in and find that the Cyber Drive won't work with Win XP. Is there an inexpensive unit that will work with XP? This one was only $40.

I installed a modem and software. I now get a message saying "modem resources conflict with another hardware. Please change your configuraton. error 1006" What configuration? What port should modem be on..com1 or com2? There is no printer, etc. loaded at this time.

I plugged in a phone line so I could load the files for my ISP and the darn computer booted up. It got into about 20 seconds of the boot and then stopped. Now i can't get anything...no power, no nothing. What did i do and how do I fix it?

I have been trying to load software by way of the CD drive and I am getting a lot of repeating steps in the loading process. It keeps performing the same steps even though the drive is working. I have checked all the cables and they are secure. What could it be? I did eventually get a program...

I finally got my first computer to load a win98 CD which i had but found that the prod key code i had was not good for the CD. I found a upgrade CD with a matching code but now find that I can't get past the requirement that i supply code for the earlier, wrong CD. Just how can I get both to...

I am looking to replace some fadng fans on a few older computers. All the computer stores don't (i understand why) carry the fans for such CPU's as the pentium 100 or the AMD K5. I have also tried to find the chipset fan for the ASUS A7V133 mobo. Any suggestions of good places who sell theses?

I have gotten to the point where the screen reads "missing operating system" and then the there is no more that can be done. Just how do I get the startup to read the cd drive with win 98 disk? Do i need to set BIOS to first read CDROM instead of the current floppy? Thank u paulwood...

I have built my first computer and now want to load the OS...which at this point will be win 95. I have downloaded the the boot disk from bootdisk.com and made some of the changes in BIOS to recognize floppy at startup. BIOS knows that floppy is installed. I did see that on the bootdisk.com...

I have followed the instructions to build the system but now I am wondering just what steps to take before I turn it on. I will want to run Win98. I have a CD for both the mobo and video card. When do i install what and what will i hopefully see when the power it turned on...I'm ready, but a...

Well I had to be the bright guy, now i'm paying the price. I have an AsusA7V133 at work that said it had a clock multiplier of 10x and a cpu frequency of 100. The same MOBO as home said 7.5x and 133 respectively so I decided to change one at work since home unit seemed to work better..BAD IDEA...

I have got some new memory which when I install it causes the reboot to read "windows protection error". I then take out the new memory and reboot. I have got a mobo that takes PC133 and I have added PC133. I am going from 512mb to 1024mb. I there something I need to do for the...

Floppy drive still won't read. Changed drive...checked memory modules...checked cables...BIOS reads 1.44mb... Is it likely that i need to change cable? The drive worked a few days ago. I'm getting a bit frustrated with this thing.

I have changed the memory from PC100 to PC133. I know my mobo supports the faster bus speed. When I boot up it shows the PC100 rather than the PC133. Is there something I can do to make sure it recognizes the new memory? thanks

I am having trouble getting system to read the floppy drive and now it won't let me even defrag. says that memory is low. Have 512 available and don't have any apps open either. Any Suggestions? Should i reload OS?

I can't get my floppy drive to work. It will sound like it is working but it won't read the files on the floppy. the hour glass shows until it says that "a" is not accessible. I added another parallel card last night but did nothing to connections or memory. Everything else is fine...

I have a great cardfile I have built within Win95 but i don't know how to move it to Win98. I can't find the name of the application in WIN95. Can someone tell me how to do this? Tybee
