  1. Yeah, the TigerJet drivers are all part of MJ. They will install themselves when I connect it to the computer after I change the OS.
  2. This computer has two hard drives in it. An IBM Deskstar and the Western Digital. The IBM's model # is IC35L040AVER07-0 ATA/IDE. I'd like to get that hooked up and possibly use one or the other, the IBM or the WD, to put the OS on then use the other for more hard drive space.
  3. David, Thanks for that info. * TigerJet USB Internet phone (There are other TigerJet devices as well) By that do you mean there is some other TigerJet device on this computer or in general? Cause there should be no other TigerJet device on this computer. I've had a lot of trouble with this MagicJack on this computer and it is the reason the Teredo Tunneling is messed up. The last time I went to get help from MJ support something happened to Teredo but when I went back to MJ support the person that was helping me all of a sudden wasn't available. I was so mad I just shut it all down. Anyway, when I install the new OS how would I put that on one drive and use the other for everything else?
  4. CW, I guess I read your post wrong. I thought you were saying that was the one I needed and then gave me other suggestions. Will that one do for now? I am going to order one of the other ones next week but for now, will that one be ok? David, Trying to figure out how to post the snapshots now. Hopefully it works. I wasn't absolutely sure what to open so I might have opened to much. Also, I know the Tereredo Tunneling has a problem and I tried reinstalling but it didn't do anything. Since the computer is working for now I figured I'd leave it alone and just worry about it after I install the new OS. Hope this works
  5. CW: I ordered the one from the cputopia link that you posted. David: I will get the snapshot of device manager shortly and get that posted as soon as possible.
  6. Do I need to download any kind of drivers or chipsets or whatever for the hard drives? And the network drivers, if I have an install disk from my ISP would that have the drivers I need or do I have to find those separately? Thanks again and again.
  7. Thanks for that information David. Just ordered the new power supply and having it sent Priority Mail so hopefully it will be here soon. Now, about that other computer? In case your wondering, I did get a non branded full version XP OS disk so that there isn't any problem with it being a Dell OS disk. What all do I need to make sure to have before I wipe this drive? Thanks
  8. Will this VGA connection support HD? I'm not to concerned about this right now but as far as the cables go, I already have a HDMI to DVI converter and a DVI cable so I'd be out nothing if this would produce a better picture quality. (I finally got a little bit of support money for the kids so I'm considering getting this set up so I can drop the expense of cable and just go with watching programs from the internet to save money). Also, about that other computer. It says Systemax Tiger on the front of it and it has the following: Intel Pentium4 Northwood 0.13um 1 GB Ram P4VM8 Motherboard 40 GB Western Digital WDC WD400BB-00DGA0 ATA Device (PATA) It also has an 40 GB IBM Deskstar model IC35L040AVER07-0 ATA/IDE hard drive that is not hooked up. Do I need to find/download drivers for both of those hard drives before I wipe them clean? And do I need to find/download anything for the dvd rw and the cd drives that are in it? Other than the video and sound drivers, is there anything else I need to have and please be specific because I have not attempted to wipe a drive clean and reinstall a OS since my commadore64. Thanks again for all the help.
  9. Wow, I wasn't looking in the right place. Should have known if I tried to get anything locally I would be paying more because I'm in the middle of the country and a small town to boot. sheesh Also, guess I wasn't awake when I posted last night. I know you need more than the model of computer in order to get the big picture but just wasn't thinking straight I guess. So here's the rest of the info: HP Pavilion a 1210n Windows XP Media Center Integrated/On-Board Graphics 4 GB Mem 250 GB Hard Drive AMD Athlon Processor Speed: 2.40 GHz Network Card, Wi-Fi Card Thanks for the link, I'll be ordering that shortly. I'd like to add a graphics card so that I can connect it to my tv and be able to get the best picture quality possible. I have a 42" Sanyo DP42841. It has a "PC" connection on it so I can connect the vga connection. But I don't know what would be the best way to connect it when the time comes. Which other option would be the best?
  10. The "new" (to me) computer is a HP Pavilion a1230n. The old one is a Systemax Tiger. Will see about getting some pics together tomorrow. Had a family emergency to take care of today, sorry I haven't replied before this. Was figuring on buying a new power supply for it after looking over the HP help site and doing what they said to do. They then suggested that it was a failure of the power supply. I've found some at a couple of computer shops for around $28.00. The person I bought it from said they would pay for it if I intended to install it myself. Or go half if I had a repair person/place do it for me. Not going to get involved with any soldering cause I'm not good at doing that. I tend to melt things that shouldn't be melted. Just ticks me off that it was working fine and out of the blue it stops. Guess computers don't like me as much as I don't like them. sheesh.
  11. Yeah, did that. Four or Five times. Left it unplugged overnight. nada Also did the hp recommendation of unplugging power cord, press and hold on/off for 5 secs. Didn't work. And the unplug power cord and slide red button on back from 115 to 230 let it set for about 30 secs, switched it back to 115 waited about 5 minutes and plugged power cord back in. Again, nada. I hate computers.
  12. Well it figures! If it weren't for bad luck! I wanted to change my living room around yesterday so I shut down the computer and moved everything around. Plugged it all back in and guess what....IT WON'T START UP! The little green light on the back of the computer is blinking so I know it's getting at least a little power somewhere. But that green light is supposed to be constant, not blinking. Sooo, I'm back on the old computer but it's having a hissy fit and I think I just want to wipe this one clean and install the new OS. Only, I'm scared to death. I know I have to back up drivers but other than the video and sound drivers, what other ones do I need to have? This computer has a Western Digital hard drive but it also has an IBM Deskstar model # IC35L040AVER07-7 says ATA/IDE in it that isn't hooked up. I'd like to put the OS that I bought on the Western Digital drive and be able to use the IBM drive as well. But I don't know what the jumper settings should be. That said, that is the ONLY techincal stuff I know. Help? Again? Please?
  13. CWB, Thank God for that because I'm going to need some help shortly! LOL cassiereoni
  14. Yep, it's HP with Media Center. Hoorah!!! I'm legal!!! Thank you so much!
  15. Hello CW. It's good to be back and as long as I have confirmation that this computer is legit, I'll be back more often now. As far as I could tell everything checked out but then again, I made a big booboo last time so I figured I'd check with the experts to make absolutely certain this time. I sure as heck don't want a surprise like last time. Porthos, Here is the information I got from MGA. Hope all is clean.
