I had forgetten there still were coal mines.

Ok so last night I built my new computer: Asus A7V333 Motherboard Athlon XP 2200+ Volcano 5 HSF 512 MB DDR PC2700 Geforce 4 Ti4400 Western Digital 100GB IDE HD 36x12x46x CDRW 16x DVD So I put it all together and turn it on. It works! I set the frequency settings in BIOS (I set 133mhz) Then I restart with the Windows disk in. It starts to install Windows XP. It comes to a menu where I need to choose something. Drats! My keyboard died! (It's been known to do this before) I get a new one but I still can't select anything. I figure its frozen and restart. Then it freezes on boot in the PCI list and IRQ settings. I restart. It continues to do this. I fiddle with some stuff on the motherboard (set the jumpers to force 133mhz) Still doesnt work. Undo what I did. Now I turn on the computer and everything starts up. All the fans (except the HSF, it starts and stops) and the lights turn on and everything but there's no display on my monitor. Like its not connected. I use a different monitor, still no display. Then I proceeded to cry. Does ANYONE have ANY suggestions? I'm desperate. Brand new supercomputer and it's just a noisy paperweight.

Can't view PDF files? Noobs!

I don't see the logic in your thinking. You say people will change, but not enough to make us good people. I don't think we can say or not if eventually we will change into the helpful and enlightened people that communism depends on... especially after a few nukes wipe out most the earths population... Anyway I don't worry about when or if human nature will change. I'm going to live another 60-70 years. I don't think it'll change enough in that time to do anything, so I'm going to look out for my personal freedom for the next few decades.

OFP is a tool of the devil. Sorry to say but it is. Better quit the forum and go somewhere else

And the problem with a narrow view is that those sorts of systems dont generally take human nature into account...they just assume that people will adapt. They wont, generally Communism wont work because of greed. People dont WANT to work for the same as others, even if the other persons job seems harder. Â People want to see gain for what they do. Laissez Faire capitalism wont (or shouldnt) work because it would actually concentrate money even faster than it is done now, and you'd end up with a VERY small or non existant middle class and a new sort of 'slavery' where the rich dictate how you work...and class movement is virtually impossible. Anarchy...well... it could work..but only with a much much smaller population. <span id='postcolor'> So you say communism or laissez-faire or anrachy work because of the state of people now. But we have established that people change. So we have no business saying none of these will ever work. Who knows if people change and they do, just like Marx said.

My point is this: People say communism doesn't work and won't work. Then people say people change and governments adapt. So why won't communism work? Or Laissez-Faire ecconomics? Or anarchy?

I agree completely Warin. But people like Marx and Denoir seem to think people will change and government will change with them.

If Marx is right the eventually we will all be communist. Marx kinda thinks like Denoir. Eventually society will change and democracy wont be the best system anymore. Marx says first there will be a revolution and everything will be Socialist for a while, then migrate into communism.

Disabled everything but the CD rom, windows is now installing... lets hope for no freezes...

Yes I already reset the BIOS, and I am getting 1 beep which is supposed to mean everything is loading fine. It's a brand new hard drive. I am assuming it's detected it because it tells me I have one. Right now I've reconnected everything. I need it to get to read my Windows CD so it can install. UPDATE: I enable Plug'n'play OS and now it gets one message further on boot. It says after the IRQ settings and PCI list "Update ESCD Successfully"

OK so here's an update on my situtation I fixed the display problem. I had accidently activated some security device. I fixed it and it works. But now its freezing on the PCI and IRQ settings list. Won't go any further. For some reason even when my floppy drive is not attached my computer says I have one... Any ideas?

Let me reiterate that the video was working for a while, then quit after some freezes during boot.

The nerdies person at school turned out goth? Can you please explain that? You mean he was very smart but then one day he took of his costume and was in all black and listening to crybaby music and then he hit someone on the head and ran away, drunk? I just laughed thinking about that.

I really need to read Starship Troopers...

Thankyou RedRogue. Will try this when I get home.

I'm asking for help on how to fix my computer, not on which parts I should have bought :\

And your culture seems to espouse the "Who needs to sue? The government can do everything for us" mentality. And that's not meant as a flame..please dont take it as that

What's going to happen to these kids who are raised by parents who are obviously not suited for it? It happens a lot, especially in the inner city type places.

I think its hillarious how many people compare WW2 Online to Battlefield 1942

OK I'll listen to the beeps. I have a 350w power supply. I don't know which jumpers you are talking about to reset the BIOS. Â I'll look around in the manual. I tried setting the front side bus on teh motherboard instead of BIOS, but it didn't solve anything. I'm going to try a different video card tonight, see if it works. Â Also I'm gonna reset bios and take everything apart put it back together. Power supply seems like the culprit however like I said it is a 350w... I don't know about the situation on the HSF. It was working fine before... but so was the monitor. Power problems again?
