  1. I recently installed Linux slackware 9 on one of my hdd's (Western Digital 120GB 8MB). After a week or so i got bored with it and tryed to install WindowsXP Pro again... The windows setup was unable to create a suitable partition for xp.

    So I tried Fdisk, it was also unable to create ANY partition (tryed low-level format several times).

    Eventualy Partition Magic 8 was able to create a new NTFS partition and solved several of the partition table problems, but still I can't have windows boot from that drive :(

    I've tried anything I could come up with... anyone any ideas ?

    (Tryed Fdisk,PM8,DriveSpace,Defragmentation,Scandisk,WinXP recovery)

    All I can think of is that the zero track has been corrupted... perhaps a result of LiLo and WinBoot getting mixed up?

  2. That's not the problem, dust filters are clean, and the airflow is correct... !!

    Doesn't anyone has a good idea what could be the matter??

    Buying a watercooling is my last resort... but IT JUST SHOULD NOT BE NESSESARY !!

    plz reply.

  3. I'm having problems with heat.... My CPU used to be a reasonable 35°C in Windows.... Atleast that whas last summer. Today that's !! 45°C !! if I play games longer than 1 hour my cpu gets above 60°C and shuts down. :) Even my PSU get's overheated !!!

    What I don't get is WHY... I'm running games and software no different than last year, except I've added 2s-ata hdd's (raid).

    I fear that I am not able to use my pc in the summer because of this problem... because the heat outside is yet to come. (in my room temp. can get 36°C at easy)

    Any tips/hints/solutions/idea's ???

    Buying a watercooling is my last resort... hope it's not needed (money problems :rolleyes:)

    Software is not the problem... neither is the airflow...

  4. I'm trying to logon to multiple coputers at the same time

    When windows starts you get a user-login prompt... I want to be able to give a signal from the server so that al my computers login with the specified account.

    (I use multiple accounts)

    This would spare me allot of time.

    Any idea's??
