    Today my Outlook Express decided to screw up. I can no longer read the text of email. I can recieve them, but when I click on them to read them, I can't see anything in the message body. This goes for just recieved emails as well as old stored emails as well. Can someone help me out? Thanks.

    Thanks for the quick reply,

     

    Most of the games I play are pretty fast paced, Unreal Tournament 2003, Serious Sam 2, Midnight Club. I think I have decided to wait however until the price drops a bit more. I will probably decide to get it once Half Life 2 comes out, which could be a while and price will most likely drop by then. Thanks for the help.

    Is this possible? I have an ASUS Geforce4 Ti4200 8X with Analog and DVI, does this make it possible to extend my desktop onto a second monitor? If so, how do I do it? Thanks. BTW, I have an LCD plugged into the DVI and want to hook my CRT monitor to the analog output.

    Well first off go here:

     

    Toms VGA Charts PI

    http://www.tomshardware.com/graphic/20021218/index.html

     

    and then here:

     

    Toms VGA Charts PII

    http://www.tomshardware.com/graphic/20030120/index.html

     

    And secondly there exists no Geforce3 MX only GF3 normal and GF3 TI.

     

    Third,

     

    I would say the GF2 GTS is probably better than the Radeon 7000.

     

    Fourthly,

     

    If you are a gamer and want to upgrade, get a modern card. GF2 and Radeon 7xxx are becoming ancient relics.

    I tried pluging the power strip into a completely different plug altogether in my room and it seems that the voltages are now stable. Could this have been the problem? The motherboard and the power supply are less than 3 months old. Do you think the problem is fixed? Or maybe just temporarily fixed? Thanks. Also, do you think anything is damaged, it seems ok, I'm just checking to make sure.

     

    Here's what ASUS Probe voltages say:

     

    +12V -> 12.416

    +5V -> 4.972

    +3.3V -> 3.28

    VCORE -> 1.776

     

    The kind of fluctuate slightly, like 12V will go to 12.48 sometimes and 3.3V will go to 3.264 sometimes. Are these slight fluctuations normal? Thanks.

    Actually I just found out that the problem is not the monitor. I have checked ASUS Probe and my +12V voltage is not stable. It moves up and down between 12.3 and 10.5, eventually leading to a lock up. I don't know what I should do to fix this. Any ideas? I have done no overclocking or changed an BIOS settings. It just started doing this for no apparent reason. Thanks.

    My problem is my (crappy) VS17X Dell Monitor. Last night, I first noticed the problem. I left my computer for 20 minutes and came back and it was as if the monitor had gone into power saving mode, which I have turned off. The normally green light was now the blinking amber color it has when going into power save mode. However, I would move the mouse around and push keys but it would not wake up. So I was forced to hard reset. It booted up fine and worked for the rest of the night. I turned it on this morning and it booted fine. I left it on while I was at work for five hours. Then I came back and it was just like it was last night. I couldn't get it back on. So I hard reset but now I can't even get into Windows. It starts the Windows XP boot screen and then goes into the seemingly power saving mode again. It is erratic however, sometimes I don't even get that far. Is this the monitor or something else? Oh yea, please note the computer fans and hard drive are running and it seems as if the computer is going through booting regularly. Please help, thanks.

    I have a problem running this game on Windows XP. The game runs fine but the sound is the problem. There is no sound and all the sound settings in the game are greyed out. I have tried different compatibility layers but to no avail. Has anyone gotten this game to work? Thanks for any help in advance.

    I can't seem to find the firmware upgrade for this particular drive which is a Liteon LTD163D DVD-ROM drive. Does anyone know where they can be gotten? Do you think they will take it back? I got the drive early in January of this year.

    I am pleased with my ASUS A7N8X Deluxe. This Nforce2 based mobo has many features. I have been very happy with this board since my Shuttle AK31 3.1 VIA-based board died out on me.

    I am having a problem with my Lite-on (distributed by Cendyne) DVD-ROM. Basically, the problem is that most of the time when I put a cd in the drive doesn't recognize that there is a cd in the drive. This a problem that started out where it would only do it a couple of times per week or so. But it is to the point that in the last 4 days I hasn't read a single cd I've put in. Does anyone know what this might be? Thanks for any help.
