To change Boot Sequence in your BIOS Reboot the system and at the first post screen (where it is counting up memory) start tapping the DEL button This will enter you into the Bios\Cmos area. Find the Advanced area and click Enter Look for Boot Sequence or Boot Options and highlight that click Enter Now highlight the first drive and follow the directions on the bottom of the screen on how to modify it and change it to SATA .

I would hate that too, because it could be something else failing. No trusting friends to swap with?

Published (2009-11-26 06:25:00)
QUOTE I thought maybe it's the Multi port USB device I was using. I bought it from Wordstart and just received it today. I thought it was a good idea because it took 1 USB port and made it 4. When I removed it and connected my external DVD burning drive directly to the USB port it worked fine That would mean that the device is not receiving enough power through the USB port. Some of the multiport devices will come with an external power...

Cracked it!! Now ejecting a disk clears the window and putting in a new disk runs or displays it appropriately. I'll try reinstalling the bundled Cyberlink stuff and post as to whether that is a problem - but hey if it is I can uninstall, fix and look for replacement software or a patch or whatever. Thanks so much, I can get on with what I ned to do with software installation without rebooting every time! Much...

PCI-E to PCI Adapter question

Will do. If I decide to try it, I will pop back and tell you how it goes! It may take up to 20 days apparently for the PCI-E extender cable to be shipped from Hong Kong (unless you or someone knows where to get one quicker, I can't find it anywhere else). Thanks again.

Random System shut-downs (not heat)
Published (2009-11-29 16:30:00)
Actually there is one new thing that I noticed as well, and I hadn't thought of it until now. Whenever I play a game, the hard drive that runs the game makes a very odd, kind of loud, high-pitched buzzing sound. Both of my hard drives do this (I have games installed on both of them), and I don't recall either of them making the noise before I got the new motherboard. Is it possible that I may have set them up improperly, or need to...

I don't have a spare. So I just might take it into the local shop or something.

Hello, I've decided to buy a netbook for my studies. My friend pointed me to a (reputable) site where they are sold very cheaply but I'm having trouble choosing. He himself is planning to buy this HP 2133 Mini-Note PC (£145). It is the nicest looking of the lot but I'm not so sure about its 1.2GHz processor. Would that be able to ...

Well, heat would be my first guess, but it does appear your temps are good - very good, actually. A failing or stressed PSU can give similar problems. Although yours certainly has plenty of horsepower, it's voltages may not be stable, or may be slightly out of tolarance. You might try another if you have one to swap in for awhile. I would also test your...

Hey guys... On my new build, I've noticed that when I'm watching HD video, I notice that sometimes the sound goes slightly out of pitch, and sometimes pops or stutters during playback. It's almost as if the sound is having sync issues. Normally I watch stuff in VLC, but I also noticed it in Miro. I'm currently running Windows 7 ...

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/...b/cs- 010374.htm Confusing information on that site. It says it supports 2Gb with 2 slots, which suggests it will support 1Gb sticks. But then the chart only indicates 512Mb sticks maximum. While it is true, PC3200 should work in slower systems, there may be other compatibility issues. How did you determine...

Since you are getting "mode not supported" from the monitor, clearly that is the limiting factor. The programs are most likely setting the video mode to a resolution/freq. that the monitor can not handle. Do you have your system set for this specific monitor or do you have it set to a generic 17" LCD? There might be drivers which you can install which ...

Open the side of the case and poke your head in there and listen. See if you can pinpoint the source. Stick an ear to back of the power supply to hear if it is coming from there. If it is the power supply, power down and replace the supply immediately. Deadly voltages are in there so don't mess around with it, just get a new one. VERY CAREFULLY touch ...

I have a PCI card that I need to use, but no PCI slot, only PCI-E. I bought this PCI-E adapter : PCI-E to PCI adapter but unfortunately with the PCI card, it won't fit in the case (probably a quarter inch more and it would fit). I was thinking of buying this cable: Pci-E extender cable inserting the adapter into that, and the...

Memory and hard drive space are two different issues you are describing. It will add more hard drive space for sure. You should format it and then you can use it for a storage drive for your music and movies if you would like. If you are not sure how to do this then just let me know and i will try to instruct you on how to do it....
