New Motherboard / System May Not Boot After Hardware Is Upgraded

Aug 2, 2005

I am planning to upgrade my motherboard and some other hardware connected to it.A friend mentioned that with WinXP the system may not boot after the hardware is upgraded, and that I may have to call Microsoft to get an authorization of some kind before it will work again. Is this true? Or can I just change the mobo and hardware and continue working?

Color Quality Only Upto 32 Bit In X64 XP?

Aug 23, 2009

I just upgraded to x64 version from 32 bit XP. But to my disappointment, the display properties only show up to 32 bit. Where is the 64 bit option? Here is the hardware I have: I had thought that while playing games, wherever there would be unmixed colors, they would now be mixed properly, like steam coming in dark areas in a game, or too many colors not fading into each other properly. But looks like I would need to do with the 32 bit only I guess.

IE Open Twice Using Upto 8 Gig Of Ram - Not Acceptable Working

Apr 2, 2010

Ever since I loaded MS-IE-8, I have found that '2' copies of IE open in Task Manager... I run a DELL-D800 (yes 7yrs old) w/ XP-sp3 and 1Gig RAM. With IE open twice - it is using upto .8Gig of RAM (not acceptable). Today (2010/04/02)I tried Google Chrome instead of IE - the first time it opened with only one copy in TskMgr - the second time it too now has 2 copies open... It went from blazing fast to as slow or slower than IE... And all the problems with IE are now returning with Chrome... What is causing this? Virus? Bug? Normal process?

Upgraded System And Getting Error For "NTLDR Is Missing"?

Feb 3, 2006

I recently had my computer ( AMD Athlon 3000+ ) ( Asrock K8 Combo-Z ) ( Seagate 200GB HDD ) running fine at 2.40GHz.I decided to push it to 2.50Ghz so I did. But then XP gave me an NTLDR error. "NTLDR is missing, Press Ctrl Alt Del to restart...". I read around on this forum and found out the best way to fix this is to use the Windows XP Install Disc -Recovery app.I have another problem though. When I insert the disc it says "Press any key to boot..",after that screen it says "Inspecting computer's hardware.." and then just goes to a blank screen.

Upgraded Motherboard OS Now Not Working

Sep 9, 2009

I've recently installed a ecs 7050m-m (v2.00) with a phenom x3 8450 processor. It boots all the way to the option (f8) screen but no matter which option i pick it just reboots rather than loading windows. I've tried just safe mode but it only gets as far as btkernel then resets. Any ideas why this might be? was working fine with previous board? Is it because I didn't install the new board drivers before fitting? is there any way to fix it?
