Win XP & K7T Pro 2

MSI K7T Pro 2-A
AMD Duron 700
PSU 300W
256 Ram (133)
3d Prophet II Mx
AOC monitor 7Vlr
here's the problem:
My computer freezes very frequently. (when running outlook Express, IE6, or any kind of software...)
2 things can happen then:
- a blue screen appears telling most of the time: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (but not every time) and physical memory is emptied. then I can reboot my computer with a reset.
- monitor screen suddenly become black but computer is still running and I can stop it only by switching off the power supply. nothing else works.
I noticed also that many programms crashed with no specific raison. (music player, internet explorer, etc)
What is weird is I have Win XP running with no problem during 6 months and one day all these things happened .
I have downloaded all the latest drivers, flashed the Bios, tried with different material. (tried different ram)
I brought the computer back to my vendor and they told that the PSU was dead so they changed it but I'm still having troubles ...

yes I read many threads on the forum about this problem.
at least cool to see I'm not the only one to have this problem..
However I can't see anything wrong when watching on my mother board.
I checked temperature and it stays between 35°C & 39°C.
Cooler seems to have a normal speed.
But the fact is now my computer is crashing after 10-15 minutes.
BTW what about the latest MSI mobos? any problem detected?
and if I want to keep my AMD Duron processor which mobo should I choose?

K7T Pro 2-A damaging CPUs

I have the most strange problem ever.
My MSI K7T Pro 2-A is damaging the CPUs I install for some unknown reason. The mobo has been rock stable for more than a year and a half and I think it is of excellent quality. About 15 days ago the PC froze while downloading a file under Win XP Pro, and then I had to shutdown. When I turned it on again, it makes 1 beep like everything was normal but the video signal was lost. Later, after many tries with different hardware I discovered that my Athlon 1 Ghz was burned; the strange thing is that doesn't had any external signs of burning, the surface was perfect. It was installed with a very good cooler (TITAN TTC-MT1AB) so temperature problems where discarded. Then I bought a new Duron 1.1 Ghz and installed it without problems. The BIOS installed was version 3.41. I flashed succesfully the same day I installed the new CPU to the BIOS last version (3.5) and it ran succesfully for about a week. Today, same story, the Duron was gone this time. My friend told me that maybe there is a sort of incompatibility with the new BIOS, but I refuse to believe it. Apparently the PSU is fine and I see no signs of a damaged capacitor or something like that in the mobo. We have absolutely no clue of what may be causing this; My technician friend tried to boot a Duron 700 Mhz and posted OK, but the new Duron don't posted anymore, after installing it on an older KT7 Pro 2, so I guess is damaged too. Any suggestion will be apreciated, as we try to isolate this problem. I will see if we use a electronic tester. If the PSU is the culprit, I don't understand how it doesn't burned the motherboard already, and if it is the mobo, I don't understand how a processor is running very stable for a week and then dyes. Any advice? I don't want to burn another CPU. ;(

Hi,
The motherboard isn't frieing CPU's, I'm pretty sure the old CPU is fine too....
RMA the board to MSI, as it happens on some boards and they need to be repaired.
Contact your dealer or your nearest MSI Quarters on what to do.
MSI warrants the board for 2 years, so that shouldn't be a problem.

Fresh install Win 8.1 Pro into Pavilion X2 (10", 32GB tablet)

Have a Pavilion X2 (32GB version) with Win 8.1 Bing.
Need to get into domain, therefore wanted to fresh install Win 8.1 Pro, at the same time remove the recovery partition for more space.
F10 to bios to set bootup to USB drive, pops in a Win 8.1 Pro x64 installation disc, but X2 refuses to boot to disc.
Is it the x64 version disc problem or have i missed some setting to make the X2 boot to disc properly??

VM created on Win 8.1 Pro Laptop cannot find win 7 iso file on USB

VM cannot find USB to load Win 7
I have a Windows laptop with Win 8.1 Pro installed. I turned on Hyper-V and created a VM. Everything worked up to that point. I also downloaded the Win 7 iso and placed it on a USB thumb drive. I also downloaded the Win 7 installer.
When I "start" the VM, I get a black screen with a message the VM could not load an OS.
It appears to me that the VM does not know where to look for the OS. I cannot find any way to tell it where to look.
I spent over $300 for upgrades to Win 8.1 Pro and a licensed copy of Win 7 so I could run Win 7 on my laptop as I need it to run UPK (which is not compatible with Win 8).
As a last resort I went to the Micrsoft store in Miami and offered to buy a Surface Pro 3 if they would install the VM and Win 7 on that for me. They said it was very easy to do and I would have no problems, etc., etc., etc. In other words they did not have
a clue about what I was talking about.
I hate to see over $3000 worth of hardware collecting dust on my closet shelf because I cannot use them. I am hopeful someone here can help a non-techie make this thing work.
Thanks in advance,
Dennis
PS - Went to the Apple store last night and was shown a MacBook Air with Parallels installed. It was running Apple stuff on the Apple OS and MS Office 365 on Win 7. It was all very seamless so am leaning very much to going with Apple as a solution.

You don't say that you attached the iso to the VM. The easiest way to do
that is to connect to the VM and then on the console, pull down the
"Media" menu, Select "Insert Disk", then browse to the ISO and select it.
Then under the "Action" menu, select "Reset".
You can also mount an iso in the settings for the VM.

Win 8.1 pro 64bit desktop blank screen after logon

Hi all
I have an ASUS P7H55M/USB 3 MB with i5 CPU 4Gig RAM NVIDEA 210 graphics card with latest drivers.
My OS as above being an upgrade from 7 pro to win 8 pro then downloading win 8.1 from the store in the last three months.
In the last few days I suddenly cant access my start screen/desktop after login. Even the usual custom page before the login is a generic blue background so none of my customized profiles shows its customized look.
Again, desktop/startscreen black/blank.
Able to access my files via ctrl alt del etc.
Been reading up and doing restore etc as suggested on various sites including malware scans NO JOY.I even tried to just run a repair using my win 8 pro upgrade disc but the system wont allow something like invalid media or something and I don't have media
for win 8.1 pro as mentioned.
Can anyone suggest a solution please? or am I going to have to reinstall with all the internet data bundle costs included?

In the last few days I suddenly cant access my start screen/desktop after login. Even the usual custom page before the login is a generic blue background so none of my customized profiles shows its customized look.
A problem seen mostly be nVidia users seems to be that the screen being viewed is the secondary of an Extended display, e.g. with the primary being either another monitor or a phantom. Try pressing Win-P, CursorUp, Enter as if you can display and use
the Project dialog to shift from Extend to Duplicate. There should at least be a screen refresh after the Enter.
Able to access my files via ctrl alt del etc.
Ah. That sounds like another problem symptom. Users of third-party system modifications saw this recently when there was an update to some kernel modules. So, presumably explorer.exe is not running then? And restarting it fails?
Event Viewer could be started then and it might give you some clues. Otherwise if you do have system modifications try uninstalling them.
Good luck

Win 8.1 PRO: Internet Explorer and integrated Adobe Flash Player no hardware acceleration on GMA

HI, i have a little problem with your latest release.
I have make a total update of the system today (win 8.1 pro 23 March 2014) and i saw that hardware decoding is not working on Internet explorer (the option is not available in the adobe tool: right click\settings)
How can i resolve?
Using Adobe Plugin+an other browser resolve this bug but i want to use IE
Another question: is coming a new version optimized for low-end video card? i have a gma 500 GPU and the performance are sufficient
Have a nice day

is coming a new version optimized for low-end video card?
Not likely, since the trend is to move to higher performance cards and not the toher way around.
As to the inability to access settings, that's in your browser, most likely ActiveX controls blocking it. There are two options:
1. Disable ActiveX controls: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
2. Use the online settings manager: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html <--Choose from the links on the left of the page.

Win 8.1 Pro 32 Bit Compatibility with Office 2003 SP3 32 Bit

Hi,
Our one of the customer has recently updated Win 8.1 Pro 32 Bit from Win XP. They are using MS Office 2003 32 Bit since long. With XP Office 2003 was working perfectly. But with Win 8.1 they have found one problem.
When they are typing mail ID in "TO" or "CC" the saved email ID is appear but by pressing ENTER the Auto fill action is not accepted. Because of this problem, customer have to type email id manually each and every time.
Can you please help me to resolve or clarify this problem.
Thank You..!!

Hi Shashank,
Just as Dominic's share, Microsoft Office 2003 suites and applications are not compatible with Windows 8 and later Operating System.
I suggest you upgrade your Office version. Microsoft Office 2013 could work on Windows 8.1 seamlessly.

Win 8.1 Pro Key Problem or not ?

Okay so i just brought a new computer
with win 8.1 pro
Installed windows when it asked for the key i tried to type the numbers that where on the blue folder thingy i had win8 cd in
an it wouldent let me use the number 0 so i couldent do any thing.......
so i said skip to the key thingy an after a while when the computer was done installing an i finaly was in windows
i had a look an now it suddenly says its activated ? how can it activate it self with a key i havent given it ?
Also the key in the end says AAOEM what does that mean ?

Hi Zaris24,
Have you compared the product ID in the machine with the key you owned ?
To check the product ID:
Right click the start screen and choose "System".
“the key in the end says AAOEM”
It shows us that the product key is a OEM key. OEM activation does not require the user`s actions and the key should only be used to activate this specific machine.
Here is a link for reference(Pay attention to this part” Original Equipment Manufacturer”):
Learn About Product Activation
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793423.aspx
Hardware vendors perform OEM activation by associating the operating system to the firmware (basic input/output system, or BIOS) of the computer. This process occurs before the computer is sent to the customer so that no additional actions are required
by the user.
If you have any doubts in the genuine of this machine, please run this tool to have a diagnostic:

Can't Install Win 8.1 Pro 64bit

Hi Guys,
I just purchase Win 8.1 Pro from the Microsoft Store (AUS). I have created a live usb (selected from the windows setup options) so that I could do a clean install of the OS on my laptop.
Each time that I have installed the OS (both clean or upgrade) it automatically installs the 32bit version. When I purchased the OS, it did not specify whether it was bit-specific, so I assumed it would include both bit versions, with an option to select
during the installation process.
I know my laptop is capable of running 64bit environment as my previous OS was Win 7 Ult 64bit.
Does anyone know what to do to either force the setup into installing 64bit, or any other method to get 64bit installed.
Cheers...

My understanding is that the download from Microsoft will be the same bitness as the OS you were running when you downloaded it.
I don't recall the mechanism, but I do believe with a little elbow grease it's possible to get a 64 bit Windows 8.1 download, as I recall reading another forum thread where someone had the same issue and ultimately solved it. Do some searching for
forum posts on this same subject; I'll bet you can turn up the information.
I wish I'd been able to help you more directly, but don't lose hope.

Connect host win 8.1 pro to vritual domain

Hi,
on my laptop I am running Win 8.1 pro (machine_1)
using Hyper-v I created 3 (gen2) VM running Win2012 servers (DC,node1 node2 they use Internal Virtual Switch)
1.DC is domain controler, I created domain AG and added node1 and onde2 to domain
2.SQL2012 installed as failover cluster on node1 and noode2 (SQLClusterA)
Question
How from machine_1 I can connect to SQLClusterA (in another words how make my virtual domain to be visible for machine_1)?
Thank you

When you created an internal virtual switch, you should have been presented with a virtual NIC on the host. Configure that virtual NIC with the IP addressing scheme you used for your virtual domain. Have the DNS server for that NIC point to
the DC. Do not try to put a default gateway on that virtual NIC - it's not needed because all traffic will be on the single subnet. Besides, it would screw up your regular access on your host.

You need to adjust your security stuff/ permissions and possibly use compatibility modes. It means that your licensing service is being blocked/ shut down.
