This is probably really old/dumb but i would apriciate help

ok i know this mother borad is really old its a MicroStar MS6119 v1.1 mother borad and according to the live update i have the most recent bios update (ver 2.90) but i still have the crash problem with drives over 65GB and the system stability problem with running prossers at 133MHz FBS, the system preformance loss when usieng 768MB of ram and i'm not getting CuMine support with my ASUS S370 adapter card. i kknow this sounds silly but when i went to the manual download area for the individual updates and downloaded the update marked with the specific problem the problem went away but only that problem went away and thge others stayed and when i applied another update to fix another problem then the other problem came back. my current operational configureation is:
PIII slot 1 667MHz 133MHz FBS (currently underclocked at 500MHz 100MHz FBS for stability reasons)
nVidia Riva TNT (downgraded from a nVidia GeForce2 MX 200 for power conservation)
and a 20GB HDD
as well as a 250W SPI(tm) PSU
i have also tried a couple of generic PSUs @ 160W and 235W as well as a Compaq(tm) one at 250W and i'm still stuck. i would go out and buy a new mother borad but i'm broke and have to make do

well i removed the prosser fan and setup a 12v 1.2A DC turbine fan (copped from a P4 heatsink) so its blowing on the heatsink and heat readings from the mobo and from just touching it have SUBSTANTIALY decreased. before it would burn me after running for an hour but now its cool to the touch (i'm thinking thats the way it should be) and so far have not had any stability problems running Tyrian 2000 (a complicated DOS game) under DOS 6.22 on it for about 24Hours with no breaks now so i think that you were correct in that assumtion

  • This is probably an overscan problem, but..

    Hey guys/girls,
    I'm a fairly new video (80gb) iPod owner and I have some questions about tv output.
    I've been trying to output some subtitled avi files to my television, and the subtitles are getting cut off on the sides and some on the bottom.
    The best result I got was cropping a 16:9 format .h264 640x352 file with 14 pixels on the top and bottom, then all of the subs were visible, but the characters were stretched and squatty (as expected, since I do not have a 16:9 television).
    The video files in question are in 640x480 resolution divx format, and if displayed using another media player on the television (such as one for the ps2 or xbox media center), they display fine with subtitles intact.
    The fact that they are getting "blown up" over the screen size of the tv, even at 640x480 tells me that this is probably an overscan problem, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to get these videos to display properly on my tv?
    My next thought was to try cropping the sides of a 16:9 format to make things look closer to 4:3 with borders on all sides, as that would be preferable to having the subtitles cut off.
    Thanks in advance

    hi, yeh i had the same problem as u, it would say that the usb is unknown, and yeh it is because u are using the wrong cable.
    i had tried, for instance dwnloading the driver n stuff, eventually i found out it was because its the wrong cable, u see i had a previous cable for an old nokia phone, and i mistakly used that instead of the new one. once i plugged in the new cable although they both luked the same, it wrked. u sud luk up the type of cable ur phone takes.
    hope this helps.

    There is no download for 10.4.x or 10.5.x, there is a very slim chance you can get 10.5 by calling Apple, but usually you can only get it on eBay & such.
    Tiger Requirements...
    To use Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, your Macintosh needs:
        * A PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor
        * Built-in FireWire
        * At least 256 MB of RAM (I recommend 1GB minimum)
        * DVD drive (DVD-ROM), Combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) or SuperDrive (DVD-R) for installation
        * At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools  (I recommend 20GB minimum)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1514
    http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=mac+os+x+tiger+retail+10.4
    See Tom's, (Texas Mac Man), great info on where/how to find/get Tiger...

    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    Classic/OS9 Apps no longer supported.
    May be available from Apple again...

    Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...

    This is probably a stupid question, but what does the red circle with a number in it mean on iCal? It looks just like the emails notification. I do not have anything do or up in my cal.

    Actually, another person on the "more like this" had the right answer. It meant I had a notification for an invite that I needed to respond to.

  • This is getting really old

    This is getting really old. 
    I keep running into limits on the way I can access information.
    I have some code that was looking at a SerialElement:
    pSerialElement.getChildAt(0).toString();     trace produces "[object VideoElement]"
    Now if I simply store that SerialElement in a MediaElement (pMediaElement = pSerialElement )
    I no longer can do a getChildAt.
    trace pMediaElement = [object SerialElement]   (it says it's a SerialElement)
    trace pPlayer.media = [object SerialElement]
    1061: Call to a possibly undefined method getChildAt through a reference with static type org.osmf.media:MediaElement.
    You encourage us to use MediaElement, yet you lock us out of inspecting our elements
    once inside the MediaElement.
    I want read-only access to the objects inside of MediaElement.
    I should be able to inspect the SerialElement no matter which way it's stored.
    I honestly don't understand the logic, on an open source project, to locking everything down
    so tight with private vars.

    Yes, this type casting you had mentioned before, just didn't stick in my memory.
    Sorry for the late night rant.
    I'm now getting the results I wanted, thanks again for your patience.
    trace(pMediaElement);
    result:  [object SerialElement]
    trace(pPlayer.media);
    result:  [object SerialElement]
    trace ((pPlayer.media as SerialElement).getChildAt(0));
    result:  [object VideoElement]
    trace ((pMediaElement as SerialElement).getChildAt(0));
    result:  [object VideoElement]
    trace ((pMediaElement as SerialElement).getChildAt(0).resource);
    result:  [object URLResource]
    var vResource:URLResource = ((pMediaElement as SerialElement).getChildAt(0).resource as URLResource);
    trace (vResource.url);
    result:   ./media/walkin.flv

  • This is going to sound dumb but I just got a call from someone claiming to be with Microsoft Windows tech dept. Apparently something malicious attacking my computer.  I hung up because I don't believe Mac uses Microsoft Window Operating System - right?

    This is going to sound dumb but I just got a call from someone claiming to be with Microsoft Windows tech dept. Apparently something malicious attacking my computer.  I hung up because Mac doesn't use Microsoft Window Operating System - right?  I have Mac OS X.  I have loaded Microsoft Office 2011.  Can that allow something malicious or is this guy a scammer and I was right to hang up???

    Actually you can install Windows on your MBP via Bootcamp.
    You should have kept the individual on the phone for as long as you can tolerate.  The time he wastes with you is time he cannot spend scamming an innocent victim. 
    You can always politely ask the caller to hold while you 'answer the front door' or the like and just set down the phone and go about your business.  The caller will eventually hang up. 
    But your analysis was 100% correct.
    Ciao.

  • When you get a new computer how do I put on my iTunes library - I do have it all backed up to the cloud.  I am not a technical person so this is probably easy for someone but not me!  Any help would be much appreciated

    Can anyone explain what I need to do.  I am buying a new computer, need to de-authorise my old computer and then put the library on a new windows computer.  I have my library backed up to the cloud for which I pay extra.  I am not at all technical so if anyone could give me idiot instructions I would much appreciate it.  Finding the instructions from apple assume I know basic,s and that confuses me!

  • This is probably a simple solution, but, so far, not for me.

    I have a MacBook running Tiger. I moved my iTunes Library to an external HD. iTunes works fine for me, but I'd like all the accounts on my machine to be able to access iTunes easily. I've repaired permissions, changed permissions, etc. all to no avail. My sons and wife cannot use my iTunes library.
    Is there a simple setting I can use so that all the accounts on my MacBook can use, listen to, add to and access my iTunes library? Any help is appreciated.
    TIA

    I get a message that says the iTunes Library file is locked
    Where is your iTunes Library file located? For your purposes, it should be in the ~user/Music/iTunes folder. If you moved it to the eHD, you should ideally copy that file (and iTunes Music Library.xml) back to your Mac, then launch iTunes with the Option key pressed down, then Choose Library.., then point to where you moved it back to.
    The basic principle is this : if you want all users to have their own playlists etc, then everyone needs their own iTunes Library file, preferably in their own user account, in the Music/iTunes folder.
    To learn more about how iTunes handles content, libraries, etc, read this article : http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive
    Finally, if you are having problems with permissions on an external drive, I'm wondering how it is formatted? If in MS-DOS FAT32 it MAY be the cause of your problem, in which case you should back up everything on there and reformat to Mac OS X Extended.

  • OK.  This is probably a stupid quesion, but I can't figure it out -

    How does one change computers and using iTunes copy my ipod play lists and songs to the new computer?  I have copied the ones I have purchased, but when I try to sync it it says that it will erase teh ipod and add the new library and that would just be the ones I have purchased.  Help!  Thanks so much!

    This question gets asked and answered almost daily.
    A simple search would have revealed the answer in less time than it took to register and post.
    Type "Transfer itunes library" into the search bar or your favorite search engine.

  • This is not really a question but just a highlight. I have been for 20 minutes on the phone through the express lane support and I have been told that iCloud DO NOT stores music or video and cannot be used to pushes any music you bought through iTunes !

    I have been amazed from the Express Lane support. I have been asking information about how to store/push my iTunes music in the iCloud. The answer has been that iCloud DO NOT stores you iTunes music at all !!!!! Is this real ?
    I am Mobileme user since the beginning and just bought OS X Lion and all necessary software to maximise the use of iCloud and now I have to discover that what has been advertised for months on the web is just ballsheets.

    Wow!  It took you 3 week to come up with that ridiculous response?
    Since I don't have access to the 11/13 web pages (my time machine is out of order), I can't provide that.  However you know full well that iTunes Match has been live for the last 3 weeks, and it isn't "ballsheets."
    As far as the "gift you may have to spend too much time on internet", it took you far longer to compose and post your whining rant that it would have if you just searched it with Google and got your own answer...

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • I know the password is correct, as other devices and this site have accepted the password.  I would like help in uninstalling a few of the devices where the program is no longer needed.

    On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
    If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.   In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.   You may find the following Apple Support article helpful.
