Malfunctioning New PC
Question: I have a new computer that was just built for me. I have an Intel Pentium 4 3.06GHZ processor 1 gig ram, 120 gig HD and my vid card is ATI Radeon 9700 Pro and an LCD Monitor.
When transferring files – graphic and fonts – from one folder to another on the desktop (I’m using XP) the monitor goes black yet the system is still running. What could be the causes of this? We have already ordered a new monitor but have not used it yet as I don’t entirely believe that the fault is the entire monitor. The sleep mode was turned off so it couldn’t be that. I’m just not sure what else to look for.
Thanks for your help.

Smart entrepreneurs however diversify their offerings, and if the demand is slow for one product or service, the others usually pick up the slack.

A Site Review Of Gaslamp.org By Julian Tandy of Nissan-Dakar.com.
Let me start this review by saying that I am based in Europe where 56K modems are the norm and broadband is unavailable for most users. I therefore always have download speed at the top of my agenda for websites and Gaslamp Org passed my first test with ease. The site downloaded quickly enough through my slow gateway, the home page is a mix of text and images so I knew what I was getting whilst waiting for all the images to download.
e-Machine Speed Trouble
Question:
hi Carey,
When I restart my E-Machine, it takes a long time just to get to the desktop, and then the computer goes slow when trying to go from page to page. Is there anyway of speeding it up? Also I’m getting Error messages. If I leave the computer it’ll just pop up. One more thing (sorry!!) When I download music on KaZaA I can’t listen to it…The mute is off and the sound is up. Can you help? Thanks!!
greatly appreciated,
