  3. I must be really old. our telephone didn't have numbers just 2 longs and a short ring. outhouses with a half moon on the door. army combat boots with 2 buckles on the top half. no television...just a radio with a 6 volt battery. no locks on the doors...just a button and a hook to keep it closed. kerosene lamps to do our homework. lash la rue and tom mix at the movies. nickel movies on Saturday. yes we did have a covered wagon before we bought our first car in 1949. I was 6 weeks old when japan bombed pearl harbor

    Howdy

    this has been a lousy year but I just wanted to stop in and say howdy to you all. I will try to get on more often.
  15. you're kidding...right chappy? just when I got win 98 reloaded and got anothe win 2000 pro disk. sorry...I'm not moving up to xp.
  16. well as some of you have suggested I'm kinda looking at the motherboard thingy. rule out ram. rule out power supply rule out power cord rule out switch. rule out video card (onboard) rule out cooling fans rule out processor I think as when it runs, it runs perfectly for a couple of days. motherboard is not worth replacing as it is older computer. I will keep it for a couple of days just in case someone comes up with something new. thanks guys.
  17. hey guys I got a small problem here. maybe someone is familiar with this problem. machine dies on me. well sometimes... when I turn on the power switch the little fans spin for about one second and then dies. I have tried another power supply...another fan...another switch but no solution. now this problem happened suddenly without warning. I had it runing perfectly for a couple of days but it died again. hopefully you may have ideas....thanks.
  18. actually I lied to you. it is a compaq deskpro 2000 no hard disk 0.....yeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhh keyboard error.....auuuuuugggghhhh no floppy disk.....oh bleeeeeeeeehhhhhhh flashing cursor.....chit...chit...chit but....I tried all your suggestions and nothing worked. I finally got the stupid thing running anyway. piece of junk compaq. I hope the power supply burns out. thanks guys.
  19. RING...RING...HELLO "welcome to the Psychiatric Hotline if you are obsessive- compulsive, please press 1 repeatedly if you are co-dependant, please ask someone to press 2 if you have multiple personalities please press 3, 4, 5, and 6 if you are paranoid- delusional we know who you are and what you want. just stay on the line so we can trace your call. if you are schizophrenic, listen carefully and a little voice will tell you which number to press. if you are manic-depressive it doesn't matter which number you press. no one will answer."
  20. okkkkkkkkk. I'm working on an older computer compaq presario 1998 or 1999 model I have rebooted and tried just about every key to get to the bios....no way I unplugged the keyboard and rebooted and it just says keyboard error. I unhooked the hard drive and it said drive 0 not detected. I unplugged the ploppy and it said floppy drive not present. BUT....it still won't let me access the bios setup. any one have any ideas other than junkng the compaq? I would appreciate any and all input on this matter.

    Eagle Cam

    just a little more info on bald eagles. there is a $10,000 fine for people that have feathers, feet, or other parts of the eagle...except for native americans. If I want eagle feathers I have to send a form to the chief and request an amount of feathers and maybe they will send them to me if they are available. actually it's not the chief...I forgot where I have to send the request....it's been too long.
  25. he has a toshiba Qosmio f25-rv205 about a year old. nvidia geforce 6 go 6600 multimedia card. everything works except for media player and sound. seems they are not quite up to date with the drivers.
