[Re-volt in vista]

Hey --- what graphics card you got and which drivers? Worked for me by setting compatibility to xp and running with administrative rights on an ATI x800xl with the 7.1 catalyst drivers.

[Media Center in Vista crashes]

Hi

Have a problem with media cneter in that it gives me a message after a while saying that it has stopped working although it hasnt. I have finally got my xvid videos completed from my holiday and i cant watch them. Have celtic druids x64 codec as i have the x64 version -- along with the ffdshowx64... and kazaa lite codec pack to get it working. Anyone else have this problem? and a way to fix it/or just to get rid of the message.

Many thanks

Hi

You can go www.cd-2-dvd.com and sign up which is free and then go to the downloads page to get orca. Its a useful site for for cd to dvd conversions as well.

Hope this helps

[XP Random Crashes]

thanks for that. But i have taken all the hardware out and swapped almost every part-sound card,graphics,memory,cpu,motherboard,hard drive and it still doesnt work! Im starting to get annoyed. Whether its a combination that causes a compatibility issue im not sure but i havent found that anywhere and ive looked. Any help appreciated.

[XP Random Crashes]

Elektrik : I have uninstalled and still no luck. For that matter i have updated all of my drivers and although i havent had any crashes in the last 30 mins its too early to tell.

Nepali : Like i said i have tested both sticks and they both say there fine in memtest86 and microsofts memory tester.

Thanks for the imput

[XP Random Crashes]

Hi

Im running xp and i am getting random crashes and automatically reboots itself (which i have now disabled). I get the error message:

Error code 1000008e, parameter1 c0000005, parameter2 80538107, parameter3 f3c08650, parameter4 00000000.

From what i have gathered the error message it related to memory errors. However i have run memtest86 and microsofts memory tester and they both find no errors.

Also i have found that some people get this when the computer is oerheating but again my computer is running at 50 degrees C and i doubt this is the problem as its within safe paramaters.

FInally people have said its a PSU problem but ive got a 500W one of Ebuyer which is new and is plenty for what i have.

So i have come to asking if other people have had the same problem and how they resolved it. Thanks.

My computer setup if it helps:

Intel 3.2Ghz 800fsb Prescott.

500W PSU Ebuyer

2x 512mb PC3200 Crucial RAM

[XP64 hanging on startup]

I have left it in the loadup screen for an hour before ive turned it off but it just continues going but does get partly jerky after a while.

[XP64 hanging on startup]

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately however its a new system (about 2 months old) but i will give it a try and see what happens. And my hard drive light remains on. Anyone with other suggestions please post as im starting to get desperate now.

[XP64 hanging on startup]

Hi

Ive had xp64 installed for a week now and had no problems until now. Everytime i boot my machine it hangs in the loading screen (ie. the bar keeps on going and going and doesnt load windows). And i cannot even get into windows safe mode! I boubt its a technical problem as my computer has been running for months now. Any help appreciated.
