    System Help

    I think I found a motherboard to try this in. Right now it has a XP 2600 in it, are semprons usable in most AMD XP motherboards? The person who has it thinks it's a abit or a msi, but isn't sure. Oh well, guess all I can do is try...

    System Help

    I updated the BIOS the other night, no real effect. Anyone know anything about motherboards grounding out? I think I might remove it from the case and see what happens.

    Dead HD

    Spinrite or Easy Recovery have both worked fine for me. Hopefully it's not the boot sector that went corrupt, that makes things a little harder.

    System Help

    I googled and found that as well. It did run for a little bit longer with that set, but still shut down on me (and corrupted my system hive file...). Though I'm fairly confident it isn't the RAM, I might try removing it. Newegg doesn't sell this processor as retail and it's been past 30...

    Or use a boot cd/disk with some hard disk checking apps on it (norton, chkdsk, scandisk, etc...)

    HDD help please

    Place the drive in a external usb enclosure (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-146-030&depa=0) and plug it in after the computer boots up. I managed to fix a problem with one of my drives that way.

    Maybe try a USB enclosure? (if you have one sitting around)

    Backup Exec?

    I was just told that the guy who handles backups quit and I'm needed to get some files back. I've used Backup Exec a little years ago, but it looks nothing like 9.1 (what we're currently running). From what I can tell he did full backups once a month and differential daily. (so far so good...

    What am I missing?

    Thank You! The RAM is unregistered....now I need to find some to replace it. I wish I could grab some out of the servers, but that won't be possible until late tonight... I still think it should beep, but if this fixes it then who am I to argue. Thanks again. It's always in the details...

    What am I missing?

    Still doesn't boot (or at least not visually, no video display onboard or PCI card). I left it disconnected, w/o battery, for a few days and reset the cmos. Still nothing. Would a bad CPU cause something like this? Seems highly unlikely I have 2 bad Opterons...

    Furniture Anyone?

    Those are really nice pieces of furniture. When I showed the person in charge of funding this they said 'This looks really expensive' and then proceeded to show me things like this: http://www.globalcomputer.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=123073&CatId=209 Obviously both...
