I am not sure what you are talking about but I also have a problem and would like to know how to fix it if it can be fixed. Can this be explain to me if this is a problem.
It says on some of the work units that if it continues that I should reset seti.
The work unit is done but it comes up that there is no out file. What should I do let me know what to do? I am not sure how to mark it and put on here.

Sorry for not doing this sooner but it is still very nerve racking and the after shock are still coming, we have had over 800 after shocks. Lots of them are in the 4. range and you get wocken up like very early hours in the mornings very good on the nerves. We are starting to get back to the norm slowly.

Yup.. seems we got lucky on this one.

To put it into perspective, it was the same magnitude quake as the one in Haiti and was near NZ's 2nd biggest city. I'm sure there would have been some deaths if it was duing the day and people were on the streets when the fronts fell off some buildings.

Then we get the news that there was a plane crash on the other side of the Island and 9 people got killed. Completely unrelated, but you dont get hurt in the biggest earthquake for 80 years, and then get taken out in a plane crash.

Ian

Yes it is very devistating and very sad on the plane crash. Yes and the civil defence has said that it was very good not in the day time.Thankyou for all your thoughts for all in Christchurch. there is a Cerfew on from 7pm till 7am Sunday, we hope that we have a good night but it is going donw to about -2deg tonight.

We are so very lucky just now as we have had no fatals as yet. It was very freaky and hit us at 4:35am. A lot of damage.

Sorry but forgot to mention that at the some time the computer ends up with a "blue screen". Is there anything that can be done for this?

scruffy.


We need a bit more info, scruffy. People here will be happy to help, but we need a lot more to go on.

Firstly, you need to clean out the dust bunnies. Switch the machine off, open it up, and get rid of all the accumulated hair, dust and other yuck to remove one problem, that of overheating.


Next, list of things to check.

After cleaning, does it still fail?

Is the power supply strong enough to cope with everything in the box?

What drivers is it looking for? As you know, nearly everything requires a driver of some sort.

What version of windows? You said XP, Home or Pro? 32-bit or 64?

Have you checked the machine for malware/virus?

If you are getting a blue screen, you need to get the information off of that screen. It gives you details (in an obscure way) of what has caused the computer to fail. For instance, if it comes up with "nv4_disp" and an error code, it's pointing to the Nvidia display driver failing. You need to go to 'control panel' then 'system' then 'advanced' and finally 'startup and recovery settings'. Uncheck the box that says 'Automatically restart' and then the blue screen will stay up until you reboot the system. Then you can write down the errors and either google it or post them here for help.

If it is doing this a lot, it might be time to get all your data off there and do a re-install, either via a disk, meaning you need current versions of drivers for the hardware in the machine, or via a recovery cd/partition which will probably mean that you will get it back to how it left the factory, but will require several months/years of updates to be installed, depending on how old the machine is.

regards, Gizbar.


Thanks for your advise i have checked all the fans and they are all clean. the OP is XP home, the power supply 520watt. The messege that I get after the blue screen is to update the Grarhics driver and that is already been done. Sometimes when I go onto neopets and play some games on there the computer starts to go very slow and I have only got a new power supply in the computer.

I am having problems like the Cuda ones but the erreos are with the MB WUs I am also are finding that the computer is looking for driver updates when there are none an I end up with the computer trying to reboot and looking for new drivers, that are already there.The OS is windows XP, and the CPU's are AMD7750, the GPU is a GTX 260. I can not find out how to update the drivers for the AMD 7750 dual core. i have another computer that is running the same, but for the GPU which is a Geforce 9800GT, noproblems with this computer.
