Posted by: Alan B. PCIQ IT Professional PCIQ IT Professional 19 Jul @ 09:46 When you switch on your computer the first thing it does is go through a sequence of checks called Power On Self Test (POST). Computers all used to have a tiny internal speaker and this would make a beep when the POST was completed but these days that does not always happen. Anyway, if the POST does not complete you get the stuck on symptoms you describe. I have a little plug in card that tells you the POST code where the sequence stalls but this actually is not all that useful. The problem pretty much has to be either your motherboard, processor or RAM memory. If you tested your RAM (in another computer ) then it is either the motherboard or the processor. thinkpad

If you try to replace a processor/motherboard you need to make sure that the socket type on the motherboard/processor matches the replacement. That can be difficult if your computer is more than around two years old. For desktop computers running XP or later, I favour a gut upgrade where I replace the motherboard, processor and RAM and you get a like new computer. microsoft

By the way, F.Y.I. nothing is spelt N O T H I N G . Posted by: Alan B. PCIQ IT Professional PCIQ IT Professional 19 Jul @ 10:01 As it s a Saturday... A problem with the English language is that spellings are pretty much fixed whilst pronunciation changes over time. A classic example is the city of Leicester which is nowadays pronounced Lester . In Shakespeare s time it is thought that nothing was pronounced much more like noting (in the sense of noticing, observing) so the title of Shakespeare s play Much Ado about Nothing was actually a pun that doesn t work in contemporary English because of changes in pronunciation. laptop computers

Posted by: Jon S. PCIQ IT Professional PCIQ IT Professional 19 Jul @ 10:31 well I guess you can blame Samuel Johnson for that. He was the one who standardised (or standardized...) so much English spelling Posted by: Richard B.

Posted by: joe d. 20 Jul @ 05:07 thanks my dad used the prosseser from his pc they where the same amd athlon 2800+ he ordered me a new one last night had NUTHING else to do thanks for all the help. Posted by: Alan B. PCIQ IT Professional PCIQ IT Professional 20 Jul @ 10:27 I take it you mean that your processor was faulty Your Dad won t be able to buy a new AMD Athlon 2800+ as they are obscelete but he might be able to pick one up second-hand. I think all Athlon 2800+ processors were Socket A, but I might be wrong. When replacing a processor you generally only need to match the socket. So if you have a Socket A motherboard then any Socket A processor would do. You should also renew the heat sink compound that goes between the processor and the heat sink - you can get this from Maplins. desktop computer

Posted by: Jon S. PCIQ IT Professional PCIQ IT Professional 20 Jul @ 10:29 In my experience modern CPUs NEVER fail on their own - theres always something else which blows and takes them out, usually PSU, sometimes the motherboard. Only exception is when they ve been fractured due to mishandling or damaged due to static - again mishandling. Overheating could cause one to fail - but modern machines usually shut down first due to the safety cutouts. I d be inclined to look a bit deeper at this as you don t want the replacement CPU to blow as well notebooks

Posted by: Michael C. 10 May @ 12:28 Thanks alot. Its an old computer i wanted to get working just for the sake of trying really. Its actually a pentium 4 but its still very out dated. Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. Posted by: Jon S. PCIQ IT Professional PCIQ IT Professional 10 May @ 17:28 If its a P4 socket 478 you may be able to find a board, if its a socket 423 then no chance. It may just be worth repairing, especially if you can find one with an Intel chipset that may not need a reinstall of windows. lenovo

By Nigel S. - 14 Nov 07 Received the call back very quickly after my initial enquiry. James was very proactive and helpful. He was also very understanding and not at all patronising when I was asking silly questions and showing my inexperience with IT issues. By Izabela K. - 26 Oct 07 By Robert R. - 24 Jul 07 I have actualy sent you a comments form re: the superb service we received from James B, he could not have been more patient ( I am 62 and not exactley computer literate )or helpful. It was a pleasure to have him sort our problems out, nothing seemed too much trouble to him, he was here from 14.00 till almost 19.00, yet the total cost was minimal considering the work he did, a real professional and v.nice bloke technology

Customer Reviews

By Wyn J. - 30 Jul 07 It needs to be taken in context. He was responsive and friendly and helpful. It would have been fine had he managed to recover the information I was most concerned about and value for money. He was not able to do this and I am satisfied that was not his fault. However, I requested he give me the entire image of the computer s hard dirve that he took before trying to recover information. This was because I couldn t understand why some information had been recovered and not other stuff that was in the same place. He agreed to post this to me but never did. I emailed him several times and he ignored these. So if he had posted me the image so I could see for myself what was missing and what was not the experience would have been a lot better. He also tried to fix the laptop but it has just stopped working again. So I ended up with very little for 20. hosting

By Barbara O. - 02 May 07 Within 3 minutes of speaking to Darren he put my mind at rest and arranged to call and sort the problem out. I am very pleased with the work he has done and am awaiting further work being carried out. netfinity
