Saduk, lo más probable es lo que te están diciendo : no tienes activado el soporte acpi en la bios. Vete al menú de la bios, y que en la sección "Power management", busca la opción "ACPI support". Actívala y reinicia. Si no la encuentras, o ves que la cosa no funciona, hay otra manera de que funcione: reinstalar windows xp. Ahora bien, tienes que hacer esa reinstalación arrancando desde el cd, no desde windows. Durante la instalación te dirá algo así como "pulse f2 para iniciar el modo de reparación de errores o algo así". Después de este mensaje, pulsa F5 y en el menú que te aparece, busca "equipo compatible con advanced configuration power interface". Cuando la instalación de windows xp termine, ya tendrás arreglado este problema Salu2

People buy soundcards from a company wirth such a bad technical support (liveware 4 anyone?). Besides, Audidy is not even a TRUE 24 bit/96 khz soundcard. Add terratec ewx to your list.

and don't feel bad about it. My connections is not really fast (56K). Cable isn't available in my town yet, and ADSL is kinda expensive ( € 35 + VAT). If I want to support a website, i can just click on the banner. But generally, I don't pay attention to what online ad's say. It is also sad that while GOOD websites (such as ntcompatible, the gia...) depend on banners, other pretend us to watch their banners AND pay for premmium content. I think ad-blocking software is just a personal choice. If I had broadband access, I wouldn't care waiting some seconds. But with my current settins, I NEED this tool. Web browsing is about 30 % faster now with ad's off. PS: It would be inmoral to "turn off automatically load images", wouldn't it?

1. WPA 2. I want to upgrade my system to better specs (a k6-2 @350 with only 128 isn't just the right thing to use with XP ) 3. I want all my PC components XP ready when it ships. This includes a future purchase of a terratec EWX 24/96 4. Pricing. I still don't know how much will cost me a winxp full licence (in €). 5. I also happen to like Win2k now

I'm thinking about upgrading my 2 year old sblive value with a better card. I am slightly audiophile , as I don't play many games,don't use EAX, A3d, and just listen to mp3, cd.... I have seen a relatively cheap 24 bit soundcard: Terratec audiosystem EWX 24/96. It costs € 180 (without VAT). Since I don't want all the typical stuff a "gamer" card has (Game Theater XP, for instance): 1)I s it worth the buy? 2)should I wait for audigy's releasy in Europe? I've heard sb audigy is not really a 24 bit soundcard 8) . Is that true? 3) Is there really any audible difference between the XP (20 bit/48hz and the EWX 24/96 (24 bit/96 khz)? PS: I had a bad experience the last time I bought a terratec soundcard (DMX fire 1024). Any known bugs in win2k/winxp?

Quote: However, for those that do, they will find that more RAM will be a necessity for practical use. RAM is about the cheapest upgrade you can do to improve speed, and may be the best. At least with Win2k, getting more RAM did much more than a faster CPU. Hey! How about expending one of these in 1GB of DDR-RAM? (50 €x4=200 € ($184 ) We're certainly going to need a lot of ram for running winxp at decent speed.

My condoleances to the American people too.. Son Gohan European Union (Europe)

appart from that, nothing special (anyone has any 3dmark scores?)

Windows NT/2000/XP emulate a whole windows 3.x system in order to run win16 (16 bit) aplicatons. I beleive that technique is called "Windows on windows" or WOW. Now, WOWexec is the executable that starts a win16 subsystem and then runs the win16 aplication on it. It is done this way, so that a crash in a win16 memspace doesn't crash the whole OS memspace. Try to run SFC.exe /scannow and let it restore all system files.

I'm unable to write at a speed higher than 12x. 16x usually ends up in buffer underrun message. No fixes such as "enable DMA", "close ALL programs" or "reinstall Win2k "helped. I have 128 MB of RAM.

Better find some VB version code. Porting from one language to another is not an easy task, and cannot be always done. for example: ------------------------------------------ #include <stdio.h> void main(void){ prinft ("Only 6 months for the euro\n"): } ---------------------------------------------- BASIC code 10 print ("HELLO. Who cares about the euro") ----------------------------------------------- Visual Basic (assuming you have a form with a "Main" button private sub onclick() Main.caption="the euro Msgbox("I do care about the single currency") ------------------------------------------------------------ but what if...? double getdata(double *x, double *y){ double FromBanderas; FromBanderas=CallSomeTrickyFunction(); return FromBanderas; } nahh! forget it. It is a pain to port from C to basic. Better find some VB code, or learn C/C++ as I did :-) PS: please...NO COMMENTS on my code. I know these two pointers aren't needed, but hey, it's just some pointless code anyway...
