I Just put a Cel 1G in a 440BX an old Abit BH6 slot 1 and it worked fine(used a 370 to slot converter card, asus smart sloket). Just make sure your mobo supports 1.75 volts through to 2.0+ for some of the stuff out there. I think it should work on your board, check dell to see what they say as...

yeah try another mem test prog. It may be what the last guy said, but its another oppinion. I use goldmem tester.

Yes Nero is the one to use, forget ezcd its a coaster maker in most cases. I know nero would be most peoples quick choice for this task, but I like to use an external program, music match. That is if your looking for an external prog, thought I would recommend it.

you didn't say you overclocked the voltage along with the fsb, voltage could be your problem. It has been mine in the past.

I'm quite positive you would be happier with the ati 7500le over the gf2. Better 2d/3d how can you go wrong. Check out on overclocking the le to 7500 speeds.

From what I understand, the ATi cards 7000+ have superior 2d to the geforce cards, and the 8500 would defintely work in 2000. I own a radeon and 2 quality is awesome, I did have a gf mx200 but I swapped out for the ati.

I do not play half life, not no of any update. But for goodness sake just hit CTRL+ALT+DEL and end it task or process. :)

Dude be careful with ink refills, or no name brands.. they can clog your ink nossel/print head and degrade quality of print. Cannon for some reason doesn't give a hoot what you run through it, but Epson defintely does and I can't see why HP would enjoy have crap pushed through its veins...

I high pitched sound coming from and hard drive is normal and abnormal.. it depends if its supposed to make that noise. :P Okay so that answers nothing but! Crack open the case and listen to see if the sound is coming from the drive at all. I had such sounds seem to come from drive activity...

This sounds very strange that the (three 4 pin inputs marked "Mitsumi", "Panasonic" and "IDE") would be labeled with those headers, sounds more like CD-ROM controller/IDE hook-ups. But if indeed there are just 3 - 4pin plugs on the sound card then one is probably CD1, other CD2 and AUX.. or CD...

I'd go with shadow mask, I own a samsung syncmaster and it rocks!!

Nasty, I only have pqmagic 5 or 6 and it doesn't have the features to do a repair job like that. Unless 7 has some menu labeled miracle I think your lost. Now partition things have screwed up on me before and older versions of Norton disk doctor for dos have saved my life. But then again I...

Yes VIA=crap and I wish my vivo se 64ddr even worked with ogl games in xp.. the only one that does is mdk2, and that's it. D3D works fine. That's why I play games in 98 and live my alternate life in xp. If that ati patch deal works for you fine.

Did you format, fdisk and all that drive preparing stuff? Cause if it has no File system on it, you won't be able to see it in my computer. But having no FS has no bearing on it locking your computer on an IDE channel, so it could very well be a bad drive.

the XP has new copper interconnects that allow it to run faster and use less power. It also includes a data prefetch cache predictor and a translation look-aside buffer that helps it to use its 384K of cache. It also supports SMP (multiprocessors), and why I think they call it xp is because it...
