I just upgraded the memory of my PC. Earlier in the existing computer, the memory Visipro brand with PC-3200 DDR 512MB. When upgrading, I bought something similar. But, instead of dual channel, I dont even get any display at the monitor after new memory installed. When I install them separately, the system runs normal with any of them. The problem I got is only when the memory is paired together. Answer: Even with the same brand, chipset and its configuration must be seen first. To check the specifications of the memory chips installed, look at the code at the memory's IC. Installation of the modules also affects whether or not dual-channel feature will available. Usually the configuration is a slot 1 to slot 3 or slot in and slot 4, could also between slot 1 with slot 2 and slot 2 and slot 3. Check the motherboard's manual. If the problem is still occurs, exchange the old memory with the same. After all, lifetime warranty and DDR Memory PC-3200 is also still in circulat

I want to upgrade my notebook hard drive. But I am still confused which is expandable up to what capacity. As an illustration, the specification of Acer Aspire 5552NWXMi notebook is Processor 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo, Memory 1.2GB, VGA integrated Intel GMA 950, Harddisk 60GB. I wonder, my notebook hard drive can be upgraded is not it? If you can, what the maximum capacity I can give to the notebook with the above specifications? One more thing. This hard drive is now installed only has the speed 5400rpm. If I want to pair it with a 7200 rpm notebook hard drive, can it be? What impact that will occur later in the notebook? Answer: Should be. You still can pair the notebook hard disk capacity of 120 or 160GB for example, in the notebook. Install the internal hard disk 2.5 "in the notebook is also not a problem. Try to check your notebook manual to confirm. The good impact, your notebook's performance will be better because the operating system and applications can work / o

I have a USB flash MP3 player with an unknown brand that there was no installer CD. After I connect the USB cable and plug into your PC, MP3 USB is not detected. Is there a tool or a universal installer for all brands MP3 for my MP3 not clear which kind of production? Where do I have to download it? Answer: Usually, this problem occurs because the data cable that is not appropriate. That is, the data cable that is used is not supported for data transfer, only for charging, either from a PC or a charger luggage. Try changing the data cable. MP3 player is supposed to be directly detected as a USB drive if your operating system is Windows ME through to 7.

Something strange happens with my computer now. Dont know why, it doesn't want to be turn on? Each time it starts, I have done it many times. I usually turn on, turn off, and turn on-off again several times before it would go into Windows. If it can enter Windows at the firs try, it continues to restart and needs to be switch off-on again. Answer: There are several steps you can do to find the problematic device in the computer. • Have you tried to boot with the LiveCD? For example with a live CD Linux distribution, MiniPE, BartPE, or something? Try to boot using the live CD. If he succeeded in loading and the computer works normally, the possibility of hard disk or operating system on the hard drive that wedge boot process completed perfectly. • Try checking your power supply. Is it still able to function properly? Voltage is normal? To check the voltage, usually in the BIOS there is information. If the voltage is far from the reference, it can cause. For example +12 V volta

I just bought a used hard drive, a Maxtor brand hard drive with capacity of 40GB. I've tried to install, but not detected. I have the data cable plug in the slave position, and I also set the jumper on cable select position. My power cable is correctly plugged for sure. Proved when turned on, there was a sign of vibration motor in it. Why is it a ittle hot? Also why not detected? Answer: Try your hard drive set to master first. Single pairs only (without the second hard disk or slave). Once activated, check if the hard drive can still be detected or not? Your motherboard do support the hard drive above 8.4GB or 36GB right? Unfortunately you do not mention the motherboard chipset used. But the latest motherboard chipset is usually no longer have the problem. If still not detected, too, probably the hard drive is not functioning. If the heat is from the power cable, there may be a loose power cable or something. Please check again thek cables. If the hard drive is hot, it was

Does AGP video card with DDR2 or DDR3 can be used by a computer with main memory is still using regular DDR type? What is the difference between DDR video card with DDR2 and DDR3? Answer: As long as the available VGA slot on the motherboard is AGP, not a problem. VGA memory with RAM on the motherboard are not directly related to each other and do not affect performance. Similarly, each with speed. Unconnected. It could be memory DDR2 or DDR3 VGA work on the clock 1000MHz, although the main memory on the motherboard only the DDR ordinary working on 400MHz clock. Differences between DDR memory VGA with DDR2 and DDR3 is the technology. DDR2 and DDR3 is better, the new technology. Advantage is its ability to work at a faster frequency, but also and more efficient in power consumption. Also the heat generated also lower compared with DDR memory, especially when working in the same frequency. Well, the performance of video memory is better this could certainly affect the overall perfo

I want to buy a VGA, and my choice fell to the VGA which already supports DirectX 10. The problem is, my budget is limited. Is there is any DirectX 10 based VGA which is very affordable? Answer: Yes, but certainly not from the mainstream classes let alone the high end. Options that can be purchased is a VGA using ATI Radeon 2400Pro, 2400XT or 2600Pro. If you happened to find, there are several brands based VGA Radeon 2600XT that cost low enough. For the Nvidia GeForce series, the options available are based VGA GeForce 8400GS or 8500GT. VGA GeForce 8600GT is quite cheap, but still pretty high than the previous two.

What is the difference between DDR1 with DD2 memory? Why the price of DDR1 memory is more expensive than the price of DDR2 memory? I use a computer using DDR1. Can I use DDR2 memory there? Answer: The difference between DDR1 and DDR2 memory are: - In the chip production process. DDR2 memory is manufactured with better technology, can be set at a higher clock than DDR1 chips, and consume less power. This makes DDR2 memory chip runs cooler while working at standard clock. - For the memory modules, the notch positions of DDR1 and DDR2 is different. DDR2 is a little bit towards the middle while DDR1 is slightly towards the edge. DDR1 memory prices are more expensive because the law of supply and demand. DDR1 memory production has decreased. Some manufacturers have even stopped making DDR1 memory, while demand is still there. This makes the price more expensive. DDR2 memory is much much produced for current PC systems generally use either DDR2 memory for AMD or Intel. Thus, with a c

Is there a know how to change the IRQ settings? What I see, on my computer so many devices that use IRQ 16. Use the onboard VGA, PCI Express VGA card, too, not to mention other devices. Is this going to be a problem? I've tried to go into safe mode, but still can not be changed settingnya. Answer: Have you tried changing them from the BIOS? I understand now rare motherboards that require users to set the IRQ settings manually. Just use the automatic settings. The operating system will take care of this problem. Usually it does not matter. Especially if the operating system you use also have the latest version like XP or Vista for example.

Is there a practical way, or tips for maximizing the overclocking on MSI K7N2 Delta motherboard? I use AMD AthlonXP (Barton) processor on the motherboard with a rating of 2800+ with VGA GeForce FX5200 and 512MB DDR memory. If I may know the settings for FSB, DRAM Ratio maximum and how? Answer: Each component, although the brand and the same series have different abilities different overclock. There are no exact standards. But to find out to what extent the ability or the maximum point of the hardware (motherboard and processor we) so the easiest way is to raise the FSB. I think Barton core processor 2800 + FSB333 tuh street aka 166MHz. Usually the motherboard have automatic settings to move the clock to 3200 + processor, but certainly not 100% sure success. Generally a processor with high multiplier like 2800+ we must lower the multiplier, and then try to raise the FSB to 200MHz processor (FSB400) to obtain the processor clock speed equal to the default condition of AMD AthlonXP (
