still nothing. anyone else got any feedback? :P

seems like a good idea. ive got a fedora cd in my box-of-computer-related-cds, so ill try! :D edit: still nothing. "disk boot failure" :(

no it does not. :(

okey! update: after some tinkering with the bios, i've finally managed to get my pc NOT to boot from the harddrive, only the cd-rom. however, i keep getting client mac addr: -my mac addr- guid: lots of Fs PXE-e53: no boot filename recieved PXE-MOF: exiting PXE ROM Disk boot failure, insert...

ive got the cd-rom as 1st, 2nd and 3rd boot device.

@tremmor- The computer is home-built, i've had it for a few years now, never had problems booting from cds before. @StrangleHold- i assume you mean a button that allows me to go into the bios so i can change the boot order manually. yes there is, and yes i've set it all to boot from the cd...

Okey. This is a common problem, no doubt. hopping around google havent helped, so heres the status: I've got vista installed on my stationary pc. I'm replacing it with XP, and since windows is a bastard it wont let me start the install inside of the OS. My pc recognizes the cd in the OS, the...

Hello. :D So lately my pc has been acting up, so ive decided to format the thing and re-install vista on a clean drive. When i toss the cd into my pc and run the setup, after installing my sata drivers it tells me to reboot from the cd to make changes to the partitions. so i reboot my pc with...

allright i figured it out. i managed to uninstall the nvidia drivers in safe mode, and it booted fine. must be something wrong with the drivers or something. im sorry to the mods and the users of these forums for my spam and useless posts :(

alright, im in need of computerforum.com's infinite wisdom right again. i recently had to reinstall vista on my pc. its one of those pre-registered vistas you get with dell PCs. the installations like to get bugged and claim its not properly registered so i have to reinstall once in a while...

that idea is not too shabby. cant believe i didnt think of that o.o

hi. im going to spare you my life story, and hop right to the question. ive got a website, which i intend to install a forum on. its a paid for webhotel with support for just about anything, and i know for a fact it can run a forum. ive read quite a bit of tutorials and install guides...

allright, is it the same thing with the news posting area in the center?

hi. im not quite sure how to explain this with words so i made this mock-up image to explain the general idea. http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/849/mockda7.jpg Basically, ive designed a beautiful website. ive got my banner implented, i got a cool little menu made of fancy buttons and...

its a Hiper Power supply ATX 530w.

if the people that built my pc decided that a 530w psu would suit my pc best, how come my pc only needs 350 w to run according to the calculator? btw, im planning on adding 1gb ram (1 stick) and changing from XFX GeForce 8600GTS 256 mb to XFX GeForce 8800 640 mb. is a new psu recommended?

i actuallly found that one myself by googling :D it says i need about 380w for my system. however my current power supply is at 530w, thats the one i got with my pc. im confused :O

to not make this thread long and boring, im gonna ask a simple question. is there a site that has an up to date calculator where you can put in the specs of your pc and have it measure how big your power supply oughta be? i found one, but it didnt have multi core processors in it. :O

seeing as my video card is running world of warcraft, half life 2 episode 2, fear, quake wars: enemy territory, command and conquer 3: tiberium wars and bio shock all on max settings without a problem, i suspect its not overheating. :P ill try reinstalling it then edit: tried downloading...

out of boredom today, i dug out Overlord from my a bit too big game collection. to my surprise i found my old saved file, so i was happy. yay. well, when i started it up i got wierd green squares all over my screen, kinda like a chess board. its a bit hard to explain, so ill post a link to a...
