Im not sure about that. :o

I guess it was fat32 but he has reformated and it is now NTFS.

He reformatted and reinstalled Windows, and says everything works fine. Now hes just got to get that mobo. Thanks everyone.

Duck you are of course referring to the windows errors, and not being able to login as the software problem, and not the slower CPU, right?

The board I plan to have him get is this:...

He reinstalled Windows or is in the process of doing so and says its working good, and got rid of the errors or something. I know he will still have CPU problems. Am I right that when you put in a...

A new motherboard is definatly something I'll get him to look into. You guys suggest that this new mobo he should get should support 800MHz FSB, instead of 533MHz, just to play it safe?

It was running at 1.2GHz before I flashed the bios. I was hoping that would fix it but it didnt. Windows XP is the OS.

I will tell my friend to do that exact procedure.

He says hes just going...

Yes, his computer has been working fine all day, and for past months too. Im sure he gets both lights and noises. The only thing that has been done recently is that I updated the bios. It rebooted,...

Well I thought I understood that the motherboard didnt support such a fast processor, but after looking at the motherboard specs I dont know what to think. It says it supports 400/533MHz FSB, and the...

He has an ASUS P4VP-MX motherboard. I dont think his processor is 800FSB though. I think its 400FSB.

Just read that link and I see the problem is basically a mismatching CPU/Motherboard. The board...

My friends computer has a Pentium 4 2.4GHz processor, except for some reason it is running at 1.2GHz. Ive already updated the motherboard drivers, and flashed and updated his bios. It still shows at...

Thanks again for everyones' support. I'll definatly get a Toshiba.

Okay well thanks again for your help. :)

Thanks everyone for your help. I'll probablly end up with a Toshiba. Do you guys suggest I stick with their default (which I guess is onboard) video card, or somehow get one that fits in their that...

This is the current notebook Im looking at. Its just under $1,000. All I hear from Dell is crap crap and more crap. Id never get one.
Thanks everyone for your help and any help...

Im looking to spend as little as possible, and although I have about no money right now I could always work up for it. I dont really know how much to spend but definatly no more than $1500.

No I havent looked at anything ASUS or MSI for notebooks. I dont really need tech support, I handle things on my own.

I run photo editing software from Adobe and software from Macromedia, plus I...

Input is needed. The minimum specs I want for the laptop are as follows:

At least a 1.5GHz processor, preferably 2GHz
At least 14in...

The first time I didnt have a proxy setup and I didnt know a lot about it. I now do and would just like to give it another try. The first time I asked, I got help from someone who worked for them....

I posted about this earlier but still need hlep. I realize its against the rules and possibly illegal but I'd still like to try. How can we get through websense? Right now, my friend and I have set...
