I know my opinion doesn't account for much but I think it IS the screen I had a similar thing (well, kind of) I had just bought a brand new video card and about after a week my screen automatically set my resolutions to 680 x <something> (too lazy to check) and it wouldn't allow to be reset to 1024x782 I brought my pc in (without screen, because off course, it should've been the pc )The fellow at the store couldn't find the problem turns out something was just wrong with my monitor Damn it Maybe this is something like this too! _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website!

Hey there Mighty Onion! Question for ya: My uncle was using his computer on Saturday, no problems. He went to boot it up on Sunday, and his computer doesn't boot all the way through. He brought it into the BestBuy where he bought it and when they hooked it up, it worked perfectly. When he hooked it up again at his house, same thing. He claims that his monitor doesn't get a signal and the numlock light doesn't light up on his kbd. He hasn't added anything to his system or added any other appliances to his house. Is it possible that a dying monitor could prevent a machine from booting up? I've never heard of that before. I haven't gone over there yet to see what I could do, but I figured I'd rather go there with some "ammo" to fix his problem. Thanx dude! _______________ Midbie Council Member #2 - Profile ID 2073 | Member of B@rtM@ulS@ar | Owner of Monty's 2000th comment & D@RtHM@UL's 8100th comment | Former Padawan of SilkMonkey & Arcuss JA Goaltender & NHL Fan | Fellow Rush fan to Axion|Plo Koon is my oldest JA friend Post your RL pics HERE! | Post you JK2/JK3 screenies HERE! |

okay, I've got a weird problem My internet provider has this kind of service so you can see how much you've downloaded that day the numbers are huge while I'm not downloading anything Kazaa is closed down, and all I do on the internet is visit this site (and spam the forums ) and drop by on IRC for a few hoursCould it be this site? Or maybe IRC? Or is there some program/virus that can cause this?
