I recently had my hard drive stuff up while resizing a partition, which made it unrecognisable in windows. I recovered the data using GetDataBack, but now none of my photos are viewable, the videos say theformat is not supported, and the audio says No combination of filters could be found to...

I reseated the cpu on my other computer and now it wont display any video on the screen. Its an athlon 64 3400+ skt 754 on an albatron v-pro motherboard. Ive tried removing and replacing the vid card, but it still wont give the comp a signal. Can anyone help?? Thanks

Dammit, now i got the shutdown bug too - where mine will not shut down while it still has power running into it. Even when i press the shut down button on my case it restarts - IM so lost, does ANYONE know how to fix this at all??? Thanks

Have u disabled the "restart on system failure" feature?? Heres the linky for info - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/320299/? - hope it works

Yea, i leave automatic updates off, id rather see what is being put on my computer - personal preference. The only thing that will be updating while im away will be my anti-virus - NOD32. That updates by itself in the background and a balloon pops up by the clock in the system tray to tell u...

Thanks for all the info guys, I have much greater piece of mind :D. One minor problem i may have is that the computer will be locked up in my 'closet' room - Im at a uni hostel and the rooms r not that big. Do u think temps may gradually increase over the days to a point where it would be...

Is it alrite to leave my computer on unattended for about 5 days downloading?? I wont be in the same city as it, and i have left it unattended for a day without any problems. If i did do this, wat would i need to do in order to minimise any risks? Thanks

But im only pressing 3 keys, left arrow, up arrow and space. It happens in NHL 2005 too, but changing sprint to say E will stop the beep, it seems as if its the spacebar thats the problem. Ive tried this with 3 different keyboards of varying age - 7 years, 3 years and 6 months, but they all beep...

Can anyone help with this?? Does it involve remapping the keyboard?? If so how is this done? Thanks

Whenever i press up and left as well as space for sprinting diagonally left in Rugby 2005 my computer beeps. EA Sports said that this happens because your computer detects that you are pressing more keys than allowed, how do i remedy this??? Thanks

Ive been using 1.9 out of the box and its given me no grief at all.

Thanks for the answer, it can stay as it is :)

My EVGA 7800GTX shows as 275MHz clock speed in Everest, and using coolbits shows that setting for Standard(2D) is 275MHz core clock and 1.2GHz memory clock. Yet performance(3D) is 450MHz/1.2GHz. Is this normal?? Would it be alright to bump the core clock in 2D mode up to 450MHz?? Thanks

Looks like its MSI, since EVGA and BFG are out of my reach - since I only want to buy from companies in my area. Thanks for all the help :)

Nah, its not in US dollars lodmdma :), its in New Zealand dollars, but still expensive :( So basically the only differences should be the software bundles (in which i only know the MSI bundle) and the warranties of each card - as they are all clocked the same and all have the reference cooler??
