  1. it's far from a daunting task! but it needs doing! so wot do i do?
  2. thankyou, scarey stuff! may be i should take it to the pc shop?
  3. hi, i went to wwwbootdisk.com and installed driver free disk for bios flashing on to a floppy, then i went back to softpedia and installed and exrtected the latest bios on to the floppy, is this ok so far?. now i don't know how to boot up from disk? it also says you may have to configure your current bios, so how do i do this? also it saysto type bios file name? what would it be? :confused:. i'm sorry about all this but i know nothing about pc's at all. thankyou for your time though :)
  4. a lot of techno stuff there for my head but i'll try and give it a go:). got to go and take my daughter out now though so i'll have to do it when i get back, i'll let you know how i get on. thanks again:)
  5. i looked but all that techno stuff's above my head! so does it mean that the cpu i have brough isn't any good for my pc? thanks for all your time and effort:)
  6. shall i swop the cpu's now or should i try to install it again?
  7. i extracted it to my desk top then went to run and brows then i found it on my desktop and clicked it and the black screen popped up then went!
  8. i downloaded that then run it and a black screen popped up and then went! does that mean it's done? i've no idea what jumpers are or what to do with them? thankyou
  9. i'm a learner here so im not sure what to do, all i know is the motherboard id is 12/25/2002-8361-686B-6A6LNAB9C-00 and motherboard name is AOpen MK73LEV. do i do a google for AOpen MK73LEV? thankyou
  10. it's the old cpu that i'm using now and it all works fine. ive checked all the wires and everything is as it should be.:confused:
  11. the pc stays on but the monitor doesn't, i only have the one pc so i turned it of and put the new cpu in it with thermal paste and it was still the same so i turned it off and took the new cpu out and replaced it with the old cpu and it works fine. all the wires are were they should be.:confused:. thankyou
  12. i took the battery out and left it 5mins then put it back in but still no monitor:confused:. i got my graphics cards out only to find that they were all too big for the white slots on my motherboard:mad:.does this mean i've got to go out and buy one? thankyou
  13. the monitor cable is plugged in to the motherboard, the monitor clicks on then off so if i knew what cmos settings were i wouldn't be able to change them because i have no screen. would it help if i was to put a graphics card in and try it then? thankyou
  14. hi, i hope i have put this in the right place? anyway i have just replaced my cpu with a faster one and now my monitor just clicks on and then clicks off! the tower sounds and looks like it is starting up normaly.i have tried another monitor but the same happens. i don't know that much about pc's so may be i got something wrong. my motherboard as a socket A (462) so i thought it would be ok to replace the cpu with one that fits in the 462 socket? my old cpu was a x86 Family 6 Model 4 stepping 2 Authentic AMD Athlon™processor 901MHz, the new one is a sempron 2400~ SDA2400DUT3D. have i gone and brought the wrong cpu? any help is welcome. thankyou
