Morning / Afternoon and evening everyone. I just wanted to ask, my "play" machine at home, at the moment runs as a dual booting system, with both windows XP Pro and MDK 10.0 Community, now it was running fine up untill last night, I bought a processor and GFX card for the machine, now when I put both in the machine, it wont send a signal to the screen, however if I leave the new gfx card in the machine, and simply put the old processor back into the machine, it works, although now I have kernel panics in linux, and my windows xp has lovely "Blue Screens of death" ? The only thing I can think of is that the machine has now got corrupted system files ? Maybe when I put the new proc in ? The machine as I said is only a play machine and therefore has a celeron processor in it, I put a new Celeron D proc in, but as I noticed this wont work, but now if I put my old Celeron standard 1.7Ghz chip back into the pc, it starts the screen fine, and sends a signal and everything to the screen ?
The OS is not a problem as I have bought a new hdd for the machine and well it was going to be replaced anyway so its not the biggest problem, the problem I am now worried about is that I have in some way stuffed up my socked on my MOBO by putting in a Celeron D chip as apposed to putting a normal Celeron chip in ? Is this possible? They are both socket 478 chips, nothing wrong there, I just dont think the D chip is compatible with my mobo ? But my well main query though, even though its not the biggest train smash, is why all of a sudden do I now get it that the OS's on the machine suddenly BOTH don't work ? -- Marc Hultquist ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Computerkit Systems (Pty) Ltd http://www.cks.co.za (P) +27 11 695 5317 (F) +27 11 312 1408 (C) +27 82 563 2861 Quote: Its a bad idea for geeks to be on low-carb diets.
