Okay, this is weird. I don't know if my kids did something or what. Suddenly, whenever windows goes into graphics mode, the screen goes completely blank. Let me describe the scenarios...... I couldn't figure out why the display would go completely blank, so I reloaded the OS (Windows XP). The...

new computer? by ted
I have a Compaq 5330us desktop and the onboard graphics card is going bad. I also want to add a DVD Recorder. As this computer is about 4 years old, is it worth getting a different graphics card and recorder or just buying a new computer?

New Hard Drive for a Presario 4824 by PhoneMatt
Hey, Tom, Thanks for the reply. I find it odd, though, that the drive was pulled from an even older Presario 4712, where it worked fine. (I should have mentioned that it is partitioned into 5G partitions. Would that make a difference?) Setting it to cable select is no big deal, I've just always...

New Hard Drive for a Presario 4824 by PhoneMatt
That's one reason that I've decided to go with a card. There is data on the drive, which I would like to salvage. MaxBlast software wants to reformat and repartition the drive. The instructions say that it can be used to make a slave data drive, but what the instructions say and what the program...

New hard drive setup by Bernard Carlton
Thanks to HH and his FAQ posts. It convinced me to not try a Gigabyte BIOS upgrade to my Presario 5460 to allow use of a new 80GB drive. I did have to get a bigger power supply than the puny 95watt one which came with the machine. I did go with an added PCI EIDE card and the install went...

My new used Maxtor 5T020H2 20G HD arrived today and when loading the Compaq full restore software into this hard drive it says, "Error, out of memory" halfway into the loading process. The loading process is halted. I notice the hard drive light in front of the computer rarely comes on as quick...
