Well , if there's physical damage (broken pins etc..) than I guess you can take the risk and try to re-solder them.
However, check with Intel on the warranty - some of your CPUs may be covered and...

You can add to the list of problems with PC chips:
The clips on the ZIF socket designed to hold the CPU cooler breaks easily (that sucks..)
DIMM socket that crumble apart..
cracking PCI and...

Most cable modems will assign a 192.168.100.xxx address to your computer if you replaced a NIC and did not reset your Cable modem.
When you get the AIPA (169.254.x.x) address range it means that...

Looks like bad RAM - but it might be wrong FSB settings or CAS settings:
make sure you're not using PC100 RAM with PC133 settings nor should you use CAS 2 for CAS 3 or CAS 2.5 Modules:

I'm not sure I got your Configuration right but :

Network card 1 - connected to cable modem shares connection to Network card 2

Just a little note, but a legal windows computer should have a COA sticker attaced to the case with the key. (unless you have a site license or it's a pre-sticker copy)

Is it just me or does microsoft become increasingly impudent by the day ?
It serves them right that you can work around their EULA.

You can install IE (version specific and O/S specific) on a fresh computer where's it's working fine then export those keys to *.reg files

Is your computer installed as ACPI system or Standard PC ?
please add system specs and IRQ listing.
-
August 19th, 2002, 05:23 PM
Again, IRQ conflict - sometimes even after you disable ACPI cards still conflict. If moving them to different slots doesn't help sometimes you have to reset the CMOS (take out the battery overnight...

Haven't tried it myself but Norton Ghost 7.5 boot disk wizard allows you to load USB support for removeable drives.
It's worth a shot.

I noticed this trend as well. It started about 3 years ago and it's growing since.
I've seen everything from dead mobo's thorough RAM sticks to HDDs and Video and sound cards.

Well, upgrading the BIOS should have been the first thing to do, then resetting the CMOS and reconfiguring the BIOS.
if your computer did not boot with ACPI disabled I would have first eliminated...

unless you're a gaming freak that wants all the power you can get from the GF4 you should not waste your money.
A good Ti4200 should cost around $160 and would give you great performance as well.
-
August 19th, 2002, 03:32 AM
I'm assuming that you already have the latest BIOS for your motherboard ...
Win2k is Plug and Play and will use the ACPI interface if your computer supports it. It might hang because your system...

By default windows uses encrypted passwords and samba (unless you configured in smb.conf) uses plain text password.
to fix that you can change your windows 2000 to plain text passwords:

Here are a few ideas.

from past experience with some older Canon models (BJC4000, 4100, 600 etc..) I can say that they are not too reliable. (the new Sxxx series are) I've seen many of those frying communications chips...
