    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    Well, this is embarassing. It turned out to be the power switch after all. I thought I had taken it out of the system, but obviously not. Thanks to everyone for the help.

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    Already tried a PSU, no help. I'm going to try setting it up outside the case so I can see if it's shorting out. Never seen anything like this one!

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    The CPU is seated properly, but I just can't get the fan to clamp down for some reason.

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    Well, it's not the PSU or the switch. I pulled the motherboard out, and it looks like the fan wasnt' seated properly. I've probably built 20 systems (older), but this is the first one where the fan attaches through four holes in the mothrboard. For the life of me, I cant get it to clamp down...

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    Never thought of the switch - I got my new PSU, so I'll try that and the switch as soon as I get home.....

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    I should have the new PSU today. Yeah, I'm beginning to think it's the CPU or the motherboard. I did try replacing the RAM - no help

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    Checked the P4 plug - no help. Don't have another PSU that will work, I think I'll order one. I need a spare anyway. I'd suspect the RAM, but like I mentioned it worked fine for a week. I'll try swapping out the RAM anyway.

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    OK, I tried leaving it alone after it quit, but nothing happened. When I turn the power supply on with the switch, the green light on the motherboard lights up. When I press the power button on the computer, the fans come on, the hard drive led lights up as normal, and the light on the DVD...

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    I'll give it a try when I get home. I think I did that the first or second time it did this, but I can't remember. I was working on a couple of computers at the time, and might have just shut it down immediately. I know the first week I had it up, it never did this, but I'll certainly give it...

    Computer shuts down after a few seconds

    Computer worked great in the evening, has problems the next morning. The computer starts to power up, it accesses the hard drive and DVD, then shuts down. The whole process takes three or four seconds. Then it's dead until I turn the power supply off and on again. I put this system...

    I want to use parts from a Dell XPS600 for another computer

    I bought a used XPS 600 not realizing that the components are not standard (different type power supply, heat sink for the CPU, etc...). When you plug the power supply in, the fans come on immediately, but nothing else powers up. I don't have parts to swap in, so I'm thinking of using moving...

    Can't upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit...

    Still can't get far enough to try any of the other fixes - If I try to do clean install, it still says that the program key is not correct. If I try to do the upgrade with the 64 bit disk, it says that I can't use the 64 bit upgrade on a 32 bit system. I understand about not being able to...

    Can't upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit...

    It's an OEM disk and an OEM license - the license came with the disk. Evething seems to work fine, except it won't accept the license. I did not format the disk - it has a copy of XP on it right now. I thought that since this was an "upgrdade" copy of Windows 7 I had to have an operating...

    Can't upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit...

    I thought I could do this (upgrading from 32 bit vista or xp to Windows 7 64 bit) by doing a custom install, but when I try the software won't accept the product key - it keeps saying that the key is wrong when I'm sure it's right (tried three times). I looked this up on the Microsoft site, and...

    Microsoft Project 2007 - How many Users??

    Yes, that's the problem, I've been looking all over and I can't find any information on number of users. I didn't see it marked on the package and can't find the information online. I'm sure it's out there, but so far I haven't found it! I just want to buy the regular software package.

    Looks like I'll need to buy Microsoft Project for work. I'd like for at least two of us to be able to install the program on our computers, but don't know how many users can install from one copy of the program. Can anybody help?? Thanks!

    Thanks very much. When I get back I'll see if it's possible to log in and change settings. If not, I'll give them a call.

    Can't send email with Vista

    Does anybody have another fix for this? Changing from port 25 to port 587 worked for two of my email addresses, but not the third. If I call Cox (I'm traveling right now and can't call) is it possible for them to remove the block?? Thanks for the help!!

    Can't send email with Vista

    Rubycon, just for the heck or it, I changed from port 25 to port 587 without making any other changes, and two of my three accounts can now send mail. Not sure why the third one won't, but this is sure better than it was. Thanks very much for your help.

    Can't send email with Vista

    I'll have to try that, Rubycon. I don't think my modem has sent out any of those emails, though, as this happened from the moment I got my cable connection and there wasn't time to send anything out. It's a new computer and a new connection.

    Can't send email with Vista

    I just got a new Cox Cable connection for my new Dell Desktop, and I am not able to send email. I usually use Outlook 2007, but I tried Thunderbird too to see if it was an Outlook problem. I get the same problem in both. I receive email fine, but whenever I try to send I get "The operation...

    2GB or 3 GB in Thinkpad T60p??

    I currently have 2GB of RAM in my Thinkpad T60p running Vista Business. The performance isn't bad, but I'm wondering if swapping one of the 1GB SODIMMs for a 2GB would be worth the effort. I'm too cheap to buy two new SODIMMs right now, and since Vista will only see 3GBs anyway, I thought I...

    Staples PNY 4GB USB drive $29.98, no rebates

    I picked up a few of these the other day. They work fine but are slow. I've used them with a Thinkpad T30 (USB 1.1 using XP - VERY SLOW) and with a Thinkpad T60P (Vista Business and USB 2.0 - Much Faster). Still a good deal.
