Brand New PC: Errors - Oblivion, BF2, And World Of Warcraft
Apr 8, 2006
I get this message will playing videos, and gaming (Oblivion, BF2, and World of Warcraft). I've reinstalled windows, updated windows, tried 3 different nvidia driver versions, used 3 different sticks of RAM and I keep getting this message.The driver nv4_disp for the display device DeviceVideo0 got stuck in an infinite loop. This usually indicates a problem with the device itself or with the device driver programming the hardware incorrectly. Please check with your hardware device vendor for any driver updates.

Looking for some help here. I reformatted my friends PC b/c he requested it. Now it worked fine for a day or so but now all the sudden he's having problems with it being slow and boggy and also the network card keeps on being goofy and it'll connect to AIM but not to the internet or World of Warcraft (online game).

Built my computer about 1 1/2 months ago, have been having various random reboots at times when I seem to be running a lot of stuff. Most notably crashes during memory intensive games. I sent for replacement ram, even though memtest gave me no errors after 7 passes. I had an Audigy 2 that was in one of the PCI slots, but I removed it and uninstalled all the drivers and apps. I also uninstalled my video drivers, deleted, and reinstalled to updated drivers. Some Errors picked from Event Viewer: (occured last night while playing World of Warcraft)
Error code 10000050, parameter1 e77b8000, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 bf9d59b4, parameter4 00000001.
---------------------------------------------
*Error code 10000050, parameter1 991b272e, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 80529a84, parameter4 00000000.

*An error was detected on device DeviceHarddisk0D during a paging operation.

I just purchased a new Dell Dimension 9100 (new line for Dell). I loaded Mcafee VirusScan, Firewall and Privacy Service and then downloaded updates for all of the preceeding Mcafee programs (there were many). I also downloaded all critical Windows Security downloads. Everything is working fine except when I work with wordpad/notepad/word or other Microsoft programs. At random, when I open these files, I recieve IE shutdown errors. I created a new wordpad and notepad file, saved both and re-opened them: everything seemed fine. Then I ran Windows Explorer and when I tried to open the wordpad file with explorer, I received IE shutdown errors.

Recent install of XP Pro.Is there a major disadvantage to running as Admin user all the time? I never setup any users, and I'm the only user of the machine. Are there security risks from the outside world (internet), or otherwise if I always run as the Admin?

When I start the computer, I get a screen freeze and have to press Ctrl,Alt,Del once before any programs will startup. A lot of probs with internet connection and slowness while surfing as well as a lot of pop up ads in my face.
There are system boxes coming up with registry and dll errors and the whole system seems SLOW.

I have a client who has a brand new PC running Windows XP and Trend 2006 as AV Software. The PC was purchased around August last year, and around November it started freezing up 3 to 4 times a day. When it does so, the power button has to be held down to restart, and the HDD light is light constantly. I intially tried a lot of different things, such as virus scans, hijack this, Anti Spyware etc etc. All of which found nothing.I have now ran some HDD tests and RAM tests which both showed nothing. I dont really want to rebuild again, as I think the same thing will happen again.

I just got my first DVD recorder and am wondering what would be the best brand of DVD I should buy so I don't end up with very many coasters. While I am at it should I buy DVD-r or DVD+r so my DVDs can be played in most DVD players out there.

The family computer is playing up and to the best of my knowledge the computer in question just simply suddenly stopped working as it should. I am unable to get the 'default' welcome screen upon start up and am getting the logon box where you type in a username and passworld. I know how to get rid of this, user accounts>enable welcome screen - but it will not solve the problem.This is just the start of the problems. I get a whole host of errors which popup one after another.

Out of 120gb, there is a 7gb restore partition, and only 2.1g is used. I have partition magic, can i reduce that partition to like 3gb so i have extra space? and.I also got a restore CD... what the? I am not sure why I need a partition in my HDD and a restore CD. Restore CD cant be the same as the restore hdd partition since it is way too small.

Couldn't pass up post-Christmas price on Toshiba laptop, but it came with XP Home. Will be used on office network and be able to log on to domain. Must upgrade to XP Pro. IT guy tells me that Home cannot be upgraded to Pro without doing complete (non-upgrade) install of Pro. He says this is equivalant of low level format and all other preinstaled software, drivers, etc., will be lost.

He sent me the computer with no hard drive and the new one still in the box. I formatted the harddrive using external enclosure and my computer. Now I'm stuck. How do you install windows on the harddrive. I put the cd in the drive and turn on the computer. All I get is a message: NTLDR is missing. Hit cntl+alt+del to restart.How do I Install windows xp onto this harddrive when I can't get past this message?

I just really have no clue on how to install windows XP, I set first drive to boot in the bios as the CDROM and put in the windows XP disk, it goes to a blue screen with white text on the bottom saying it's loading stuff.. Then it says "Loading Windows XP" for about 10 seconds, then I get a 2 tone alarm (2 beeps each, like "beep boop beep boop" and the computer shuts down. I don't think it's a heat issue as I can let the computer run all day in dos and it won't shut down, but once it gets to Loading windows Xp it goes downhill.

I am trying to do what so many others prefer...install XP on a new notebook with Vista. I have had some problems thanks to the SATA controller driver. Even the bios has no option to turn the off the controller which has worked for me. So I slipstreamed the driver that seemed to be the one (read on another site) and started the install. Got to where the install asks to specify the RAID type/brand. I select what I think is the one (HP) and then a screen comes up which reads "please insert Windows XP Professional Setup Disk #4 into your CD ROM drive and press Enter when ready". I know of floppy number four, but this is asking for CD number four?

I'm not completely computer illiterate but i have never set-up a dual or triboot system before.I want to triboot XP Pro, Vista Home Premium and Ubuntu. I have a brand new 500GB SATA hard drive which is straight out of the box. I don't have vista yet but plan on getting it soon (when the next service pack is released) and don't want to have to reformat my hard drive when i do. So i thought it would be better to prepare for it now

I have made two clean installs of Windows 2000 Professional today trying to figure out a problem. It all started with my first install. It was behaving funny, freezing on startup (after desktop icons loaded) every other reboot or so. I put the latest Via chipset drivers on there, and nVidia video drivers (to get out of 16 color mode) and then the freezing upon boot seemed to stop. Is something somehow messed up in Windows 2000? I'm not sure where to go from here.

Its been a while since I came here, alas, I have not had any major problems on any of my machines due to all the great information I have obtained on this site. however, I just put together a brand new PC, probably my best and most powerful to date, and I do not want anything to screw it up. Here is my configuration. There is nothing on it right now, its brand new only has a few mp3's. Should I install Service Pack 2? I think its good, but I would like some expert advice. Lastly, should I install it through live update or through the Microsoft site, or as someone suggested, install the Network Installation pack for Developers and IT professionals.

Have attempted to install a brand new & legal copy of XP Pro as well as the pc's (Compaq Evo N620C) original restore disk (W2000) on a brand new Seagate 60GB ATA hard drive and I get one of two responses along with a failed installation.I do have an old copy of Windows 98se that appears to be recognized by the pc and probably could be installed, but I would rather not. I started it up just enough to determine whether or not the pc and hdd would recognize the program, and it did....can anyone suggest what I am dealing with here and what can be done to get one of thes programs up and running, preferably the XP?

I just put together a new system from scratch and regretting it BIG TIME, I have an intel d915GAG board with an intel P4 3.2 chip. Brand new WD HD, floppy, and 2 dvd/cd drives. After the final screw was tightened, I started my new system and the intel logo appeared. I pressed ESC and it appears to start the bios setup. It flashes my memory size (size is 512 MB), then the screen immediately flashes and begins to do and IDE scan, in which it promptly tells me that Device 0 not detected, device 1 not detected, device 2 not detected, device 3 not detected....and the setup stops right there. I don't have a clue, after searching Intel's site for 2 hours where to go from here.

.dll errors. Not a single one in particular. Random ones. Two today were mshtml.dll and ietutil.dll. Microsoft has some, but not for an XP computer. I do not know anymore if it is a service pack 2 or 3 since my brother in law took our Compaq computer and made one on his own with old and new parts. What are .dll and why do these errors keep popping up.
