    Warm Fire and a warm woman..
  1. I had the same problem , I did a restore and it corrected...Don't know why or how it happened...
  2. I really cannot distinguish whether you are being sarcastic or serious.... If you are serious...Well thanks again... If you are sarcastic .. well you need to work on taking a compliment better....
  3. I agree ....CCleaner amazes me as how it can adapt to different Operating Systems and still perform flawlessly...
  4. I would like to extend my gratitude and thanks to many people that post on CCleaner Forum. Although , I haven't posted here for about 6 months , I have been fairly busy. I am not sure many of the people can remember me but I started posting on this forum back when I started to have problems with my home desktop PC ( Win98 OS) and also my dinosaur NT at work..Well , to make a long story short , since then I have a new home desktop PC and a new P-4 work desktop. Here are some stats on my home desktop : Gateway (refurbished) 700GR desktop Intel P-4 w/HT technology 1.0 GB Ram (expandable to 2.0GB) 250 GB HDD Radeon ATI 300XSE video card Win XP Home OS (sp2 upgraded) Anyway : here are some of the people I would like to thank for the many frustrating hours spent trying to upgrade and troubleshoot some of the problems I have had with my old Win98 OS..... If I have left anyone out , you know who you are , please accept my gratitude and thanks.. DjLizard Tarun ( special thanx for the hijack log analysis) Twisted Metal CapMan rridgely andavari gunner Eldmannen ( thanks for the 2 cents) Mr. Brownstone
  5. Installed a GEForce FX-5200 PCI 128 MB video card . I have had troubles loading the games . The screen goes black and shells back to the desktop with the 3d disabled and the Direct Draw Accelerators disabled. I have directx 9.0c which the card supports and it supports my Win98 OS. dxdirect shows 3D enabled and Direct Draw Accelerators enabled except after I try to play the games. The onboards are disabled and everything else seems to be OK. I ran MSInfo32 to look at any conflicts and there were none but I noticed Under the components heading display my nvidia drivers are sharing with a few other old onboard drivers . I tried driver cleaner and it did delete the old drivers but they are still in the system info. My Bios is pretty much set correctly. I did notice when I was running the onboard graphics that I could play my games and the AGP Accelerator was enabled in the dxdiag display.Not so with the nvidia installation. Is there something here...? Any suggestions would be kosher I am at a TOTAL LOST as to what the fix could be. A simple frickin video card install and this crap happens...Frustrated...
  6. In the future get ConfigSafe software..You can take a snapshot of your system when everything is running OK.....and when problems occur you can restore the configuration to a previous snapshot..This has saved my 6 many x's... For now , try going to the microsoft download page and downloading the lastest Service Pack...then install and reboot...
  7. Check to see if you have a Tascali taskbar . Open add/remove programs and remove the task bar that obviously came with the Taiscali browser.....Sounds like the taskbar was left behind after the uninstall....

    This happened to me one time...I went the microsoft download website and downloaded the latest Service Pack.....The problem with the grainy screen was cleared up..This is an e-z fix and is worth trying before you get into the video card delimma.......
  9. Insurance is a necessary evil...as the old saying goes...
  10. Hey Cap, Try checking out the SIS Site they have the upgraded chipsets for all the SIS .. included are the VIA Southbridge & Northbridge.. Hope this helps...
  11. #1 You should have the power supply info. with the video card you purchased , if not go to their website and find out what the power supply requirements are. #2 250Watts should be sufficient to run the video card , How many other devices do you have plugged in ...ex..Plug-n-Play devices that may be hogging the juice. Try unplugging a few devices and then run your video card and if it works , the power source is your problem. #3 Check your IRQ setups and see if there are any conflicts.There might be conflicts. #4 Sometimes , if you have onboard video graphics check with the video card instructions on "How to Install" and make sure you do or don't have to uninstall the onboard graphics.....
  12. This post is dead ........ Any comments , suggestions , wise remarks, or general discussions will be ignored and considered irrelavent...............
  13. Pains getting the video card to work with games. The games try to load then unload.. Installed correctly in the PCI slot , current drivers are installed and DirectX 9.0 installed. I disabled the onboard drivers also. I went thru the procedure to install several x's and I am getting nowhere.I am calling Tech support Monday. Any suggestions will be entertained. edited: Well, problem might be my system can only handle 145 watts and the card needs more. I will know more after conversation w/ Tech today....
  14. Our Prayers are with everyone in London....
