Hi Its an "I" not a "1" in I386.

Hi geforce Welcome to ExtremeTech.support - Free PC Help. We are looking forward to hearing from you!

You may have the CD-ROM image on your pc. To find out if the CD-ROM image is on your machine, search for a folder named I386. There may be several but the one you are looking for will contain close to 7,000 files, two of which will be winnt.exe and winnt32.exe. Then double click the winnt32.exe file. I didnt see the post from Kelly so try what he suggested first. Also Just hear what Seth or AdvancedSetup think of this idea. Maybe they see something i'm missing.

I dont know if you've tried this but put a disk in which you know has got data on it. Then go to "My computer" and right click on the DVD and select "explore". What does it show you? Have you tried again to boot with the XP disk and does it still not work. Remember to look for "Press any key to boot from CD..." then press any key :)

It could also be caused by malware. Malware is the term used to describe computer infections such as Adware, Spyware, Viruses, and Trojan Horses. You will need to run at least two malware scanners as well as an Antivirus scanner that are listed in the following instructions. Anti-Malware and Anti-Virus scanners perform different tasks. The reason to run multiple scanners is to ensure that no single scanner is missing something. The time it takes will vary depending on your system and your internet connection. Typically the SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes scanners will take between 30 and 90 minutes. The Eset online scan should take between 1 and 3 hours. In most cases, these scans will suffice to clean and disinfect your computer.

This means it is set to master. Which is OK. Edit: Is the DVD rom at the end of the cable or in the middle?

Hi Ok I just want to know where we are on this tell me yes or no 1. The DVD rom opens and closes. 2. It can't read any cd or dvd's.

Hi Here is a picture of the jumper at the back : http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh257/maynardvdm/dvd4.jpg

Hi tonko Welcome to ExtremeTech.support - Free PC Help Did you install any new software since this started happening. There is a program called magnifer in windows xp so check if that program is not maybe running! Post back here so we can help you!

If its on its own cable then it should be set to master. I'll have a look if i can find a picture to show you what i mean.

Hi Click on the highlighted one in this pic and click properties. Then click on the driver tab and click on "driver details" and post what it says there.

Hi Check out this link tell me if it's the same as what you are getting : Click here

You can download the software from that website aswell. Is it listed when you go into "my computer"? The last two questions of wolfey: The jumper is on the back of the unit! Normally it will say M or S or CS. Which one is it on? Is the unit on its own cable from the motherboard or is there another device on the same cable? I'll look for more places where you can get the drivers!

Hi Is this the one you got : LG If the page don't load the first time just press refresh.

Well he probably needed it after being so close to that lion :D

Here's something for ya :

Hi ONY Welcome to FPCH Are you getting an error similar to this

Hi Good to hear you are up and running again. I think if vista does not pick up the drivers then you must install the drivers manually. Even if windows installs the drivers you can always use the disk and it will tell you if the latest drivers are insalled or not. I'm sure the others will correct me if i'm wrong :D

This only happens when you play a game or during normal windows usage?

Hi Welcome to ExtremeTech.support - Free PC Help No signal -> you should check the cable from the monitor to the pc is still good. Make sure your graphics cards fan is not full of dust, if so you should clean it -> compressed air works nicely.

Hi I,ve seen this happen when one key gets stuck. Just a thought for "if all else fails" :)

You should have seen the carrot i got yesterday.............:D

Hi Welcome to ExtremeTech.support - Free PC Help. :D

Hi DSTM Maybe the repair install will sort that out, unless it is hardware related. But keep us updated and we will help you! :)
