  1. If you're overclocking your processor, increase the Vcore and try again. Or stop overclocking the processor. I had this problem, but only when playing one of my favorite games. It would randomly crash with that error message.
  2. Also, the L1 cache may have accidently been disabled. Make sure the L1 cache is enabled!
  3. But I believe Microsoft said that the problem is a bug.
  4. It's probably fine. It's not like I'm trying to emulate a PlayStation 2! LOL!
  5. At the minimum, don't allow unused ports to be left wide open! Because a new virus can find a way to crash a Windows component!
  6. 1. Bochs 2. Qemu 3. VMWare Because I'm having a major problem with Qemu. I want it to boot from a real floppy disk, but it won't even try to! I don't even see the floppy disk drive LED light up! It immediately goes to: Boot from Floppy 0 failed FATAL: Could not read the boot disk.
  7. Possible causes: Hardware problem: The processor is overclocked too much or don't have enough Vcore. Faulty processor. Bad caps (capacitors) Software problems: The video card driver failed to initialise. Buggy software.
  8. The driver for the Asus A7V8X-X motherboard is at: http://dlsvr03.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/audi...80/WDM_3663.zip
  9. Like ROMs, asking for commercial games is prohibited. Because they aren't free. Thus it ain't any good to ask for them here. Just try to get one from someone you know.
  10. If those numbers are your speeds, there's something majorly wrong, because that's analog dial-up speeds!
  11. The issue probably isn't the HDD data that has been cached by Vcache, but the hardware HDD cache, the HDD cache on the HDD itself. If the HDD gets shut off in a majorly short time, the HDD data may be corrupted, even when the data appeared to have been written to the HDD completely by Windows! Thus with a HDD having an 8MB cache or higher, at 16 MB, HDD corruption is more likely to occur.
  12. Likely not if the application wasn't compiled with a pro-Intel compiler. Super Pi was unfortunately compiled with a pro-Intel compiler, AFAIK. Super Pi, at least the non-modded one was written in 1995! Back then, AMD wasn't popular at all! In 1995, I didn't even have a PC at all!
  13. Do you hear repeated clicking when the above is occuring? If it is, you have the dreaded click of death! That's unfortunately common with Western Digital HDDs. Then the HDD's bad!
  14. Actually, BSODs can occur if the motherboard has a Vcore issue.
  15. Is your video card or any other part of your system OC'ed? If it is, lower the clock frequency and try again. Your OC probably isn't stable.
  16. Where on the web site?
  17. Because I lost the CD, but still have the setup files, because I copied the I386 directory to the HDD a good while ago. I don't have a CD boot image (CD boot loader) extracted from that CD! Would the same one from Windows 2000 work and work properly? Title Edited - Please follow new posting rules from now on. --Zxian
  18. I have the same problem too with my Asus A7V8X-X (Via KT400) motherboard. But the difference is that even with Windows XP SP2, I'm required to use the AGP driver from Via. It will automatically go to the PCI-to-PCI thing. Then if I change it to the SP2 Microsoft AGP driver, it will refuse to load it with the error message saying that it failed to start. Thus the Microsoft one isn't compatible with my Asus A7V8X-X motherboard! Even with Windows XP SP2, still required to use the AGP driver from Via!
  19. This problem can occur if your RAM is malfunctioning. Did you run Memtest86?
  20. You're required to use the command prompt Chkdsk to get a reason why the scan can't be completed! It probably is going to tell you if it's because of a bad sector or other corruption. Open up the command prompt and type chkdsk c: /v and if that don't do the trick, type chkdsk c: /r
  21. Wow!! I can't believe that!! But that sure seems to be common with used Western Digital HDDs, even if only a few years old!! I often see bad sectors on Western Digital HDDs. But, I did have bad luck with a Seagate HDD, it started emitting squeaks when there was a lot of seeking and SMART monitoring utilities were saying that a failure was expected in a short time!!
  22. I disagree!! All of my Maxtor HDDs have been reliable, even a 13 GB 7,200 RPM one from 1999!! Most of the HDDs that I came across with having the dreaded bad sectors and dreaded click of death were Western Digital!!
  23. I'm wondering if most games aren't affected?
  24. Is that why I got sent to a 404 when trying to re-download sp5files.zip?
  25. If you get that error message, just re-entering the BIOS setup then saving the changes can solve the problem. This is normal for that error message to appear until you enter the BIOS setup then save the changes if you recently resetted the CMOS.
