I\'ve got some friends working on it. They sould have an answer soon

this happened to me before. we took our computer to a repar store and they said somthing about all these codes being corrupted, then they suggested we get a new cpu and that they had a wide selection. thats why im writing this on my new cpu.*a little bar pops up that says: posts 4*

The first answer is here.

I got an error on my computer at home, (I am at my grandma\'s house right now) and it said \"MONITOR NOT DETECTED.\" I don\'t know why, but I can\'t get it to find the monitor. What do I do?

well, obviously it\'s a problem getting the message from the computer to the monitor, and I\'d say to check all the wires, etc.

We know the monitor\'s okay, because otherwise you couldn\'t get the message, could you? wait, is this a message from the computer or the monitor? take the plug connecting the monitor and computer and see if anything changes. if not, check all the cords and ports.

Alright, I\'ll try those when I get home. I shall do that.
Thanks, people!

My computer is even..funner.

It will play music. But only for a certain period of time. Randomly while playing music, it will shut itself off, reset itself.

It does this with Winamp and Meridian Advance. But will not shut off when I play ZSNES (yes, with music turned on). It freezes with Neopets flash games, on occassion..and shuts off/resets with other flash games, like those ones for forums..

I\'ve tried getting new drivers but that didn\'t help..

All Windows systems are similar, with the exception of XP. All other OS\'s of Microsoft are almost the same.

Holly, chances are you\'ve got a not too powerful PSU, depending on how old your computer, meaning that not enough power is getting to your computer, either that or you might have a RAM worm.

That reminds me, I need to do a RAM test again... It\'s odd that the power would have something to do with it though, but that would make sense. I would think it would only reset when something is making the computer work harder..such as loading big programs or playing Quake 3.

Right, so, I\'m shuffling between forums. I have a problem a member on another forum needs an answer.

Maybe Nero isnt compatible with the HDD burning feature?

Are you sure he was burning EXACTLY 1.4 Gig?

While I wait for him to try that. Here\'s another one

When he says board does he mean Motherboard because if he does, he\'ll have to give me the make and model of it to see what maximum processor he can get, also upgrade i advise you get water coolant, if your going to overclock you need to kept your computer cool.

The topic title was AK70 System Board.




2. Another one just to keep \'em coming

Well whenever I start up the computer and it goes to the Desktop, something called \"Access Denied\" appears. It doesn\'t do anything... or does it? Is anyone able to verify that error?

Oh and...

I don\'t know if I should be talking about this but... my ZSNES emulator lags very often, even without the Internet on. If that\'s a good thing to discuss, then does anyone know the solution to end the lagging?

Mega, The AK70 motherboard can only get processors up to 1 GHz (not 100% sure),

The person with the XP problem has to install Microsoft Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 2 to get rid of this problem.

In light of what Sage has just told me on MSN, i dont know if you should get Service Pack 2, just stick with SP1, unless you dont have any of the programs on this list

Shut up, Kiryu. Just shut the hell up.

I have the \'not shutting down\' problem too, but I thought that was just a Win98 problem? I guess Microsoft errors are contagious.

Another technical Question

My massive slow-downs.

To MegaX: The persons computer BARELY scrapes the minimum system requirements, and in my opinion, if he\'s planning to upgrade his computer he\'s better to do a big upgrade rather than a minimum one, 512 Ram will last to the end of this year/early next year due to more demanding games coming out, the videocard wont play many high spec games and the processor, most games that are now coming out will require 1 GHz and most likely more.

But back the original question, Yes, his computer will play The Sims 2, just not very well.

|EDIT| $175 amounts to £97.15...If your planning to get 256 of ram (£25) or ($45)

Radeon 9500 Pro: 128 Meg ($90) 64 Meg ($70)

In total thats $135/$115.

Now, there is NO WAY in my opinion that you will get a good gaming processor for that amount of cash, unless its worse than the one you\'ve got, but you can search...

Thanks Kage, Here\'s another one.

I think its a hardware issue, not speficially the burners but the heat, burning CD\'s make a lot of heat on your comp and MAYBE its heating up too much so your motherboard gives you that message to try and cool down some of the componants.

Here\'s another one.

What size of Hard Drive does he have, and you\'ll probably need to upgrade to a 1.5 Ghz processor or better, but by doing that you\' might need a new motherboard if the one you have isnt capable of going that high.

EDIT:www.cpuid.com, Mega could you ask him to download that and post the log?

[Edited on 30-8-2004 by KageKun]

Talked to him about that. While I wait.
