Reseating? Trying them one-by-one?took one out, started the comp, took another out started the comp, and non of them worked i tried taking them out and putting it back in, still didn't work. =[I just Google a little, and it looks like there are plenty of possibilities for that error, but it's a bed time here, so I'll be back tomorrow, but for good night, you can check one interesting reading: <a href="http://icrontic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=50966">http://icrontic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=50966</a><br/> Quote from: Broni on August 23, 2008, 11:28:05 PM<blockquote>it's bed time here<br/></blockquote> <br/>LOL it's only 10:30 pm!!<br/><br/><br/>ok well anyways i'll try to reseat the RAM one more time and if that doesn't work, my dad will be taking it to a tech... <br/><br/>I'll update you guys asap if anything happens<br/><br/><br/>Thanks for ALL your help<br/><br/>once again THANKS!<br/><br/><br/>Tranc3rWhat are the specs on all 3 sticks of RAM ? ?<br/>Download and run MemTest on each stick seperately.<br/>Let it run at least an hour.<br/>Any errors at all and you have faulty RAM...Ok, occording to the tech, he said the problem isn't the RAM, it's functioning properly, he tested it them on another computer.<br/><br/>Well that's what my dad told me, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/last-2782539" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LAST">LAST</a> night we were trying to fix the comp until like 2 am, then my dad told me to go to sleep, and he'll <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/take-662846" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TAKE">TAKE</a> it to someone and it'll be fixed, and he left the house at 2 am, i have NO idea where he took it but the next day when i woke up, the computer wasn't there i asked my dad where was it and he said its at the tech and i asked him well what did the tech say was the problem? he said there was somthing wrong the HDD and he booted it, well he really didn't give me much of an explanation, but I REALLY REALLY wanted to go with him and see what the tech did and ask him more information, =[. and im not 100% sure of it's working or if it stopped restarting until i have it.<br/><br/>well that's all I have left to tell you.<br/><br/>I was a little disappointed that I couldn't go with him! =[Keep us updated...do you have another pc running xp? you could just throw the working pc's hd in your pc as a master. run yours as a slave, and try to fix the problem that way. if you can fix the problem, at least then you could back up files and re install xp on ur drive.

I just <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/remembered-2247831" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about REMEMBERED">REMEMBERED</a> I had to update this!<br/><br/>It seemed that the computer's Registry was FUBAR'd and there was no other option but to reformat the computer. We got a new HDD so now the computer has two HDD. 'The old HDD's Windows folder was completely destroyed' <--- Straight from the tech (This time I was there). Thank fully the old HDD's memory wasn't destroyed with the Windows folder. Now the computer is running on the New HDD and I was able to retrieve important documents from the old HDD. Along with that, we got three year subscription to Kaspersky for 2 computers (My dad's and my brothers [I do not need one because I am careful of what I do with my computer]).<br/><br/>Sorry again for the one year late reply, but I couldn't have let this thread be left alone <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/aeuroewithout-1475023" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WITHOUT">WITHOUT</a> an answer!<br/><br/><br/>*Needed to edit Kaspersky*Wow! It took you a while....LOL<br/>Thanks anyway hey trancer remember me? i was the one who had the same problem as yours..<br/><br/>well i sought the help of a friend..here's what we did..<br/><br/>we placed my hard disk on another pc..upon boot, the pc automatically did a check disc..then after it loads to windows..we scanned it with antivirus..then ran an error-check..to do this..go to MY COMPUTER then right click on the drive letter of the hard disk, go to TOOLS tab, then click Check Now on ERROR CHECKING..check BOTH options..then wait for it to finish..<br/><br/>after we've scanned at check for errors..i plugged ib back to my pc and guess what <br/><br/>i was able to boot in successfully..i first booted to SAFE MODE..then scanned it again just to make sure..a virus scan that is..then after that i logged on to windows normally.. <br/><br/>hope my reply will be <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/helpful-479747" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HELPFUL">HELPFUL</a> to those in the future Awesome!</body></html> | |
