For past few weeks i'm struggling to figure out the reasons for my window hangs. First i thought, its may be of my disfigured mouse port on motherboard, however i changed my mouse to USB mouse. But still i'm facing the problem. All of sudden, OS hangs, no cursor movements or mouse movements. Even manual restart is freezed, only the power off is the solution. Can "U" trace the problem?

To fix the problem I can control alt delete and exit the Task Manager, this fixes the problem.

My question is can they fix this without having to replace
the motherboard?
My friend has recently bought a package PC, and the included motherboard drivers are... well, rubbish. I'm trying to find the right drivers for it, but the SiS website is useless, nevermind the Foxconn website. The motherboard is:Foxconn 655A01-FX-6LRS, Chipset (AFAIK): 655FX 964. I'm only used to nForce drivers (a single download), and this is just painful by comparison!I've already made 2 failed attempts to install the drivers, with no success. Which drivers do I need? At the minimum just the sound would be ok - he doesn't need the onboard graphics.

This app only uses the standard port 22.Is there anyway in XP for me to remap outbound port 22 to port 587? I found the firewall port settings but it will let you enter new ports and redirect them I believe but it won't let you edit any of the standard port settings.This is a tough one. I doubt there will be many, if any replies with a solution. But worth a shot.

If it is the motherboard (Am I correct in assuming that I will need to shell out $200 or more for a full xp sp2 retail).
I recently got a new motherboard (GIGABYTE GA-81915P-MF). I was on an AGP board and I upgraded so I could get a newer graphics card. I installed the new motherboard (without uninstalling Windows XP Pro) and I get BSOD. I have tried reinstalling XP PRO, booted from disc. It would work for a while until it froze, and then BSOD again. I have put in new hard drives and it still won't work. I get various BSOD's everytime. I'm not overclocking, my cpu chip is perfectly compatible and I have 2GB RAM so it can't be memory.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'll buy a new motherboard with video card, cpu and memory but I will keep the old HDD. My old mobo is burnt so I can't boot the PC. I want to do a fresh install on C: but I have some data that I need. I have a few ideas but I don't know if they'll work.
1)Can I use Windows XP Live USB edition to boot with the new mobo, copy the data from C: to another partition and then do a clean Windows install(well, only the C: partition)?
2)What if I do a Windows Repair Install, copy the data from C: to another drive and then do a clean install?(I don't think this is a good option because the user settings and program files will be deleted and I want to keep them so I will know what apps will I have to install.
I just ordered a new mobo and will be upgrading to XP from 2000, which is currently installed on the hard drive I'll be using. I know it is always best to do a clean install with a new mobo but by doing the upgrade to XP will I avoid the problems of putting an old OS on a new mobo?

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy main XP Pro machine failed last night, with symptomology consistent with an actual failure of the motherboard. I'm going to try and attack it methodically tonight, but realistically I think the board will be "pining for the fjords.".I would like to take the primary disk from that machine, and cable it into the
old backup desktop machine in place of that machine's primary hard drive while I figure out what to do. That way I won't have to spend major amounts of time getting the Outlook .pst file moved and configured, not to mention all the other relatively important stuff sitting on that main machine.When I've done that in the past, that has always required a reinstall of Windows because the motherboards are totally different architectures and obviously take a different set of drivers and dlls and what have you.But I have a hunch this is not necessary if one knows the right tricks or perhaps how to run the mysterious Repair console.
Can anyone talk me through what I need to do in order to stick a hard drive with a good, running XP Pro installation onto a foreign machine? A second question: I run a small network at home cable modem into SMC .Barricade 4 port hub. The failing machine connects to the hub, as does a wireless router. I've found that when my primary machine is turned off (or in the case of this failure, is dead) that none of my networking works wired or wireless. I had to cable the backup desktop machine directly into the cable modem in order to have any connectivity. Just wired into the hub it waits forever for an IP address. I just don't understand what the main machine has to do with the networking process thought that was the job of the hub.
I have an ethernet port that is physically connected to my motherboard. For some reason, when I formatted my main drive, and re-installed Windows XP, it will not detect it no matter what I do. I tried searching for new hardware through Windows as well, but nothing seems to be working. Luckily, I have an ethernet card laying around that I wasn't using, so that's how I'm connecting to the internet right now. A little bit about my system: I am connected to a Linksys WRT4G router, which is connected to my cable modem. When I plugged in the ethernet card that I had laying around, it found it right away and is working fine. I'm just that kind of person that feels if it isn't working how it's supposed to work I get all cranky. My type of motherboard is listed in my sig.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently replaced my motherboard with a New GA-965P-DQ6 motherboard,and a Core 2 Extreme QX6700. it has 1 IDE, 1 FDD controller and 6 SATA slots. i am using a 650 PSU from Antec and a Big Typhoon cooler. From preparation to reboot into Windows XP i was told to reboot from the Windows XP Home edition install CD. I hooked up my gigabyte DVD-RW as master and my IDE Western Digital 80g 7200rpm as slave, to the only IDE slot - also changed the pin setting behind the drives. then when i turned the PC on, i went into BIOS setup and set it to boot from CDROM first (there is only 1 selection for optical drive). However, for some reason, the startup just couldnt recognize the DVD-RW and couldnt boot from it. Can someone please help as i am stressed and befuddled (tried switching master and slave but it didnt work)
