I am running XP Pro (2600) when I tell computer to turn off, it restarts.....any ideas? I am also running system works 2002, I have heard that thay could be the problem hardware: athlon 1.2 @1.45 asus a7v elsa geforce 2 gts sblive! 3com NIC Tekram scsi controller plextor external 12/4/32 scsi pioneer 115 dvd (x16)

the KT333A chipset is known as the KT333CE chipset...this is in circulation now. Epox is currently already using it.

for quake 3, u just need the minimum req. on the box

BG1 ROX (I assume you are talking about boulders gate) It is a really good game. you can import your charector from BG1 into BG2

a version of SP1 will be released next week http://www.osopinion.com/perl/story/17936.html http://www.osopinion.com/perl/story/17928.html not usre if this is the SP1 or just a major patch though

well the cd-rom, and the cd-rw are fine. What is happening is that the cd-rom cannot read the type of cd that has been written. Many of the older cd-rom, and some of the cheap new cd-rom have problems reading cd-r/w If you are writing to a cd-rw disc than it could be the software that is writing the files. Like directCD files are hard to read by other cd-roms unless you specifically close the cd and tell it to allow it to be read by any cd-rom. do you have the same problem when writing to closed cd-r 's?? if yes, I am stumped too, if no, it is not the burner you are problems with it could be the software or the other cd-roms try reading the cd-rw on another burner, if it cant read the files, it is the software.....BTW what software are you using?

I had the same problem, I dont know what caused it. But I had to re-install windows (another reason) and it didn't return. B4 the problem came about when I used the "built in" software or Nero 5.1. It didn't come up when I used ez cd creator 5 plat (with updates) or with nero 5.5. I beleive it maybe have been the aspi layer that I had to install.

took my gaming computer bvack home with me to Australia and when i got there turned it on without cheching the heatsink.....bye bye cpu. then when bringing it back hard drive went currupt......so in one trip had to buy a cpu and a hard drive

I am running an epox 8kha+ with an athlone t-bird 1.2 @ 1.36 (8.5 x 160) My computer keeps losing system files (win32/system.cfg and recently hal.dll) what could be causing this? could it be bad IDE drivers, or corrupt RAM? any other suggestions? It is a brand new West. Digital HD, 30 gig, brand new cos I had it replaced cos I first thought it was the drive. thx for any help

Dont blame XP, I couldn't get it to run under win2000 pro. (blame EA)

I am running XP pro and having no probs at all with ghost recon. Could be a driver issue. ??

Quote: Palos: My money will go to the first one that will support Divx decoding Looks like the XBOX could be it. It's just a matter of time Actually technically that would be the PS2. The reason for this is that LINUX is out (or will be shortly) for the PS2, and you can watch divx movies under linux

If you currently have liveware 3 on an install cd that you got with your sblive! card (any) you DO NOT NEED TO BUY THE CD!!. they are just not going to post it anymore. If you do have it on your ORIGINAL cd that you got with your card you just use the live update.

yes that would work for bios flash etc, but it wont for a start up disc to start the install, cos the NT kernal wont boot from DOS

some people have had probs with vid drivers and tribes 2.......try newer video card drivers

you can actually download a boot disk from microsoft XP Pro XP Home Ed.

uninstall disk compression (in add/remove programs, as in win 98)

you could always try reg cleanr, works well for me reg cleanr

true well I deleted ez cd creator, and well it shuts off now!!! now I have to use a few different apps to burn with....oh well!! thx all

sweet thanx....makes sence....typical microsoft

try winimage winImage

cdrwin does work under version 4.0 or higher have you tried uninstalling cloneCD and reinstalling?

kinda ironic huh? I am unable to download the updated update installer, so I cant check for any update. any ideas? anywhere that i could download it from?

it is possible to buy the livedrive! individually livedrive! or you can buy the digital I/O card digital I/O card I think you would prefer the digital I/O card (I would.....if I had the money)
