    Extracting data from IDE hard-drive via USB

    Hi, My desktop bit the bullet and I have an IDE drive in it that has a bunch of music on it. It also has a 250G SATA drive which I want to buy an enclosure for. Problem is while the SATA has very little data on it, it is larger and I want to use it for portable storage, while the data I...

    CPU done?

    OKay I got a speaker hooked up, no sounds of any kind when booting. I unplugged all peripherals except CPU RAM and Video, and same problems. No video comes up, and I am doubtful it is booting. Do you think I can safely eliminate video card as the problem? I have no onboard video to check...

    CPU done?

    I would have to hook it up at the pins right? I actually don't have a speaker, so that may be a problem. I'll look into getting one. I completely overlooked that, thanks for the tip.

    CPU done?

    No bulging or leaking.... Tonight I'll unplug everything minus the video card.... and see if I can get a post. If not it's probably CPU... What is the minimum I need to get a post? CPU and RAM?

    CPU done?

    Hi, I posted about this awhile ago in the PSU forum. My computer had been turning off randomly (I never caught it in action) I would just come back from doing something and it would be off. When I would try to restart power would temporarily turn on (.5 sec) just enough to see my fan start...

    PSU/Harddrive/Maybe Mobo issues

    For the record I don't want to confuse you.... Your best bet is to start swapping things out and see what makes it work. Swap PSU, swap in another SATA hard-drive and see where that gets you.

    PSU/Harddrive/Maybe Mobo issues

    My completely uneducated guess would be your CPU possibly. A way to check your PSU would be to borrow one from another computer you have at the house, and if the power rating is lower just unplug some of your devices. My reasons for guessing the CPU are the boot-up problems. I remember I...

    Dead PSU or Dead Mobo?

    Hey I posted a similar problem in R.I.P. PSU. I had random computer power-offs for the last couple months, though I never would personally catch it. I would hit the power button and the fans would briefly spin up just to die out again. I could turn off the PSU from the switch on the back, let...

    R.I.P. PSU?

    Hi, Yesterday I walked over to my computer to find the power was off (when I never turned it off). I tried to power back on, and the power would come on, but the boot process would not start. The lights would come on and the fans start but no boot (I can tell because there isn't the...

    HI, I have a MicroATX case with and Antec 300W PS. I want to get a X1950 Pro. My CPU is a AMD 3000+ and 1GIG DDR ram, do you think I will need to upgrade my PS to run this card? I don't plan on overclocking anything. Thanks, John.
