  1. I guess I should have taken a bit more time in reading the nickname... miss kell i bad 1, miss kelli bad 1, missk elli bad 1 (there is elli in this one). This is why I am not married, I never pay the right kind of attention to the ladies. Oh well this is not the first time I have went home alone.......rofl :)

  2. hey guys! I'm back!

    Did you see that movie castaway with Tom Hanks-the part where he makes fire?

    haha that's me

    I reformatted!!!!!! ha

    I couldn't have done it without you guys though!

    Thanks alot!!!!

    Couple times I got a little worried- it gave 3 choices not 5-and never asked for my recovery disk at all!

    Then I had problems re-downloading Norton's.

    Everything's good there though.

    Now I have a new question:

    I waited 30 mins. for windows update and still no updates will show-it sits at 25%-what's up with that?

    Is there something else I should have done?

    Thanks again in advance you computer Gods:)

    I just want to say congrats... :bigok

    You have now become addicted to HardwareSoftware. Go tell the wife and kids good by and give them a big hug and kiss because like Tom Hanks you are now on a island where Wilson is your only friend. Look at your monitor and say "Hello Wilson".....

    I am just sticking my nose in here, you picked a good place for advise and these folks will do you right. Keep up the good work..........

  3. O.K. good information. Now lets try and isolate the trouble. If you disconnect the XP machine from the hub does the transfer rate pick up on the ADSL? If so does it maintain the speed for long periods?. Now if you reconnect the hub to be linked to the ME system does the speed fall off again?

  4. OK, I changed it and I hope this one is alright. The last time I changed my avatar the size max was 120x120. Looks like a few things have changed on the rules. Thats good but it is hard to keep up on changes as they are made sometimes. Thanks for the reply....

  5. COOL.....

    I priced out that system, 700 bucks. That would be using my HDD, Geforce4 card and Power supply as well as memory that I already have. I wanted to get it all from the same online store but they were out of stock on the CPU..... If you do not mind me asking, what in a round about figure have you got in your new machine dollar wise? If you do not want to post it that is OK......

    :) Happy to hear that you have it up and running now. Have fun and keep us posted..........

  6. I just looked at your manual from link. In section 1.7.2 it tells that if the RAM is not installed you will not be able to finish the POST and you will not get any beeps.... Check your C-RIMM and make sure they are installed correctly and have no damage on them. I see what you are talking about on your bank 0 and bank 1, mine is set up a little different but still the same concept. Check out that RAM and make as sure as you can that all is seated well and looking good......... I like the specks on that MB, I want to know how it turns out because I am thinking of upgrade myself...

    Good luck...

  7. PS: When power, CPU fan turn on. Board LED turn on. AGP card fan on. No video no Post.

    From this statement and reading all the replies to your post, my question is have you ever seen the MB work? If it is new out of the box and has never worked the BIOS might be bad from the get go. If this is the case it will never work and you should contact your supplier for a replacement or you might have to send it to Intel for replacement. All the items that you listed that are powered up do not need the BIOS to function to work.

    I hope this is not the case, but items have been known to bad out of the box..........

    ONE more thing I just thought of, are you RAM sticks in the right locations?

    After thinking about it sounds like the the BIOS information is not getting to the RAM. On my ASUS P4T the sticks are staggered.... i.e. c-ram then memory stick then c-ram then memory stick. Just a thought..........
