K7N2 does not seem to recognize any graphics card

Hi,
If anyone could help me out with this I'd really appreciate it, I'm pretty stumped.
Current Specs:
OS: Win XP Pro
Mobo: K7N2 Delta w/ nforce 2 chipset
Graphics Card: MSI FX5600 w/128 MB DDR
Power Supply: Antec SmartPower 350 Watt
Ram: 1GB
Here's the problem. When I boot my system, the windows logo comes up with the blue scroll bar below it but after that's done loading I get a stop error
STOP: 0x000000EA
This refers to either a graphics hardware/software related problem.
I tried booting up in safe mode and after system loads the bare minimum, screen goes black and just hangs. I tried using the "last known good configuration" option but it takes me back to the blue screen.
So, using a fresh unused hard drive I installed Windows XP and then proceeded to install brand new drivers for this card to see if it will work. Computer works fine before VGA drivers are installed, but afterwards I'm back to square one. I've tried FX5600 drivers from: the CD that came with the box, from the MSI website, nVidia's website, and from Windows update. All took me back to the initial problem once they've been installed.
Then I said "O.K., it must be the GeForce card itself." So I've tried several different graphics cards to try and replace the one I have now but whenever I use another card the system won't boot up. The fans will turn on and that's about it. I've tried PCI and AGP cards.
Does anyone have any advice for how to troubleshoot this issue? Does it sound like I can still get my card to work? How can I get another graphics card  to work with the system?

RAM Specs:
2 sticks of 512 MB PC2700 CL 2.5 Apacer RAM. I don't know if this matters but they're in DIMM slots 1 & 3.
I downloaded nForce drivers (version 5.10 as Richard suggested) and everything installed fine. However, the computer freezes whenever I'm using MSI liveupdate.
So, instead of using liveupdate I downloaded the nvidia drivers directly from Nvidia.com. During installation the screen flickered three times, and immediately after this the only thing appearing on the screen was a blinking cursor in the upper left; the computer just hung at this point.

  • In large PDF files my cursor moves around the page at warp speed. It does not seem to make any difference if I slow it down with Sys Prefs. This is not only in preview but also other programs to open PDFs.

    In large PDF files the cursor moves at warp speed with a mind of it's own, I've tried slowing it down in Sys Pref with no luck. On small files cursor action is normal. This happens in Safari, Preview and other programs that use PDF files. Sorry to say this does not seem to be a new problem with 7.# I've had it with prvevious versions of operating system Right now I'm using a Apple wireless mouse and key board. Using the USB keyboard and mouse the same problem does not go away.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Ant autotype does not seem to recognize xsd:include

    Hi
    I am currently using WebLogic 7.0. I was trying to use ant autotype to generate
    java classes based on a schema. I ran into a problem that the autotype does not
    seem to include the other schema files listed with xsd:include. I could only get
    around the problem by literally copy and paste the complex types definition into
    the calling schema file. Below are the two schemas that illustrate the problem.
    x.xsd includes y.xsd but however the EmployeeBean listed in y.xsd results in a
    unresolve type with autotype. Problem only goes away if EmployeeBean definition
    is listed in x.xsd.

    I bought a Power Mac G4 (version=3.3) second hand from my company.  It is running Mac OS 10.2.8 and Microsoft Office X.  I wish to connect it to my BT broadband hub.  However, it does not appear to have an AirPort card and even if it did I was told that the BT hub mainly works with microsoft rather than apple products.  Can anyone advise me how I can connect and what products I need to buy?
    Many thanks

    Not true. Those adaptors were intended for the iMac G3 (long outdated) and only the iMac G3. All G4 machines just take AP Cards the way they are.

    You should also look into upgrading it to OS X "Tiger" but make sure you get the original retail install CD. It will be black with a large "X". Grey discs are machine specific and will not work.
    Actually I HIGHLY recommend upgrading to OS X Leopard. Tiger is no longer supported by hardly anybody (Apple, Adobe, etc) and Leopard is still the minimum for most things nowadays. If you want more life out of this Mac, then I would highly recommend installing Leopard. And as mentioned above you NEED a Retail DVD. (The Leopard DVD has a little Purple in the Center of the DVD and a BLACK X in the center.

    Hello Mogulman46,
    So what that means is when you have Do Not Disturb turned on, you may have an alert depending on the setting and how you are using your iPhone. So if it is set to Always, then that means that no matter what, your iPhone will not be notified. If it set to Only while the iPhone is locked, then that means that you will not get notification when your iPhone is locked but you will get notifications if your iPhone is being used. Also keep in mind the settings All Calls From can be set to certain contacts like Favorites, Everyone or no one. If you are using Do Not Disturb and you do not need it, then turn it off. 
    Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    I have tried everything I could think of but the only thing that works when trying to play a DVD is plug into my tv and use that volume. I really don't want to do that as it should work using the computer. I believe the volume works fine on the computer as I have used it. I just does not work when using the cyberlink program that came with the computer to play a DVD.

    Hello Dixy1953. I understand you're having issues playing the sound through the TV when you plug the computer up to it. Is this correct?
    Which interface are you using to connect your TV and computer?

    Elaine, did you change your name from Andy, or are you a separate person? Most of us don't pay that close attention to the name and since your response seemed to be a continuation of Andy's problem, nobody noticed.
    Your question appeared to show absolutely no attempt to try the solutions provided for Andy (who we thought you were). What you did is called "threadjacking," and you did it in a way that made everyone believe you were actually Andy, who's thread you threadjacked.
    Being that you are a self-professed novice, here's a very basic thing you need to understand: for the most part, data is separate from applications. So, just because your application (Word in this case) no longer works, that doesn't mean your documents are in jeopardy. You can install Office (Word) 2008 or 2011 and open those documents just fine. You can also use any of the programs mentioned to open those documents. There is nothing to "merge" between the applications.
    To move them to your new computer, just copy the documents to an external hard drive, thumb drive, or CD/DVD. You can then move them to your Macbook. You can also turn on file sharing and move them that way, but you probably ought to have a backup since you claim them to be important.
    Do you have a backup of your iMac? If not, I would suggest getting an external drive copying all your data onto that, make sure it all reads ok, then do what you need to do with your iMac.
    Apple's setup assistant should have asked if you wanted to move stuff from your old computer to your new one, which would have been the best way to do that; however, since it appears you have already set up your account on the new Mac, I'd just back up the iMac, either by straight copy, Carbon Copy Cloner, or SuperDuper. You can then move the files you want onto your new Mac from the external hard drive.

  • My shared iTunes library shows up fine on my Apple TV, but when I try to access the same library on my iPad to view the shared TV Shows everything jumbled and all over the place. There does not seem to be any order and many shows are missing.

    When trying to access the shared iTunes library of my Macbook Pro on my iPad(iOS 5.1) the TV Shows are all mixed up. Some shows are not even displayed. The same library display normally via my Apple TV. It appears that iPad using iOS 5 has lost the ability to recoginize that TV Shows have a main show title followed by a number of episodes eg., 'Top Gear', Season 17, Episode 1 to 6, and 'Modern Marvels', Vol lll, Episodes 1 to 16. This has to be a glitch with iOS 5 as it was working fine in previous OS versions.
    Does anyone know if Apple is aware of this anomally or is there a work-around? Thanks

    Perhaps you should ask over in the iPad community, you may get better answers there.

  • Application manager insisting I "renew my subscription" but I have a standalone version of acrobat. Any way to convince the manager that my product is registered? There does not seem to be any manual additions in the application manager app.

    I am using Mac OS X (yosemite). I had a creative cloud student subscription for a year (expired in September) and I did not renew. However, I did purchase adobe acrobat XI. I am not sure of the exact day it stopped working (before or after OS upgrade), but now the application manager takes over after I start acrobat and insists I do not have a subscription and must renew. I checked the web and my product is registered and I have the serial number, which I enter upon installation. I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything to no avail. I even contacted adobe and they seemed to have a hard time understanding why I was having a problem since the product was registered. I could not devote much time to the online chat so needless to say, my problem still persists.

    Moving this discussion to the Acrobat Installation & Update issues forum.
    Adugasjr please remove your current installation of Acrobat and reinstall.  If you need a fresh copy of the installation files they are available at Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X.

  • I have just attempted an archive and install of my OS, the status bar has reached a certain point and does not seem to load any further. Help?

    The installer has been stuck at "44 minutes remaining" for about 2 hours now, I don't want to quit the installer incase I lose any files. I have no idea what to do now
    Before doing the archive install I ran disk utility and came up with no problems. I have completed two previous archive and installs after a few issues I had with my MB. I suspect my HD is failing however it has never just stopped loading like this before.
    Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    So your n 10.5 and you have archived and installed before, and it stalled this time,
    You likely ran out of drive space or even hit a bad sector on the drive.
    Reboot the machine holding the shift key down, that hopefully should get you in so you can delete the previous archived versions of OS X.
    Your user accounts and files are stored seperate and even if archived with OS X, it's a copy of the orginals.
    Once you get in, copy these like Users folders to a external drive as soon as possible and disconnect.
