Problem with my computer and Sparkle Geforce 9400 gt

Currently, I have a Compaq SR1103WM, which I am on now. I recently installed a Sparkle Geforce 9400 gt in the PCI slot, the card drivers will not install, I had people telling me to update my motherboard drivers (whatever it is) or update my diet. The power supply that is located in the computer is rated at 250 watts, could the card doesn't have enough power?

When trying to install the drivers from the card, installation cd fails, if I try to install from the site of Nvidia or Sparkle, they fail as well. When the installation fails the screen goes black with a flashing underscore in the top right of the screen, just as it has restarted. Anyone know the problem? If it's the power supply I get a new one without having to buy a new case or motherboard? I can't get a new computer because I simply don't have the money.

It is faster because you do not have to initialize the modem, 2nd HARD drive and optical drive.  I still believe that you sink more of $ into a black hole.  5% chance that a new power supply would work... probably not worth it.

Buy this Corsair $38 if you have the itch of for a new power supply.  You could reuse for the next generation.  You won't be able to buy any power supply in the local store for that price and quality.

  • Suspicious call telling me that I have problems with my computer and turn it on

    I got a call tonight from a woman with a heavy Indian accent, claiming that there was something very wrong with my computer (virus, or something like that) and she wanted to check a number on my computer (ISP?.. .not ISP because I know what it is... another type of number) and I could only get the number if I turn on my computer.  Been suspicious so I asked who she was.  Quickly, she replied that she was working for a company that supports Windows XP and Vista.  I asked the company and name and she said his company's Solutions megabytes and it was called Genny/Jenny Williams number 102 (I asked his employee number).  I informed her that I was very suspicious and asked for a phone number.  Basically, she said that she only wanted to help and could not if I don't turn on my computer.  I pushed and asked for a phone number as she says that she asks xxxx (town 2 miles where I live).  I was persistent and spoke to him longer then told him to give me his number and I'll call him his back to make sure it was legitimate.  Suddenly, there was silence on the phone.  I was right to do what I did?  I am now very worried that maybe I have a virus/spywear on my computer (I am currently scanning it w/Windows Defender and Weboot Anti Virus and Spy Sweeper to see if it comes out clean.)

    It is a common scam. Do not give them information, do not give them access to your PC and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment. See:

    (these people often but not always use the name of Microsoft)

    If you had him leave on your computer you would certainly had malware on it, because she would have said it. You did the right thing.

    There is no way she could know whether or not you have malware on your system before she calls you.

  • I'm having a HUGE problem with my computer (Lengthy and detailed)

    I have serious problems with my computer and I don't know what to do, it's a very long story, so be prepared. I use Windows Vista Home Premium

    -J' have been very frustrated by this virus call "Adware one Step" so I deleted manually, because my Mcafee security has not detected, neither the 'MalwareBytes' or 'HitmanPro.

    -With a sigh of relief that I have (hopefully) got rid of the program, I wanted to play this game called roblox. But I received an error

    "The application could not initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click OK to terminate the application"

    -Then, after a little research I tried to get the Windows service pack 2 to solve my problems, so I decided to get the Windows Update as well as 19 other important updates. When I try to install the Service Pack, I get the error

    'ERROR_NOT_FOUND 0 X 80070490.

    When my updates finished, they are all impossible to install, which resulted in the error 'Code 490. Looked up code490 error, nothing, gone.

    -The site of Microsoft, suggested that I have download the system analysis tool in which I did. When it was first downloaded it stop 3/4S the way on the progress bar. And being impatient that I am, I forced closed and refused to work, so I deleted and got another, and now the progress bar... doesnt move at all. Strangely if it ends after the installation of 2-3 hours without the moving bar at all.

    -So the thought of my problems are solved, I have re - download the Service Pack and once again failed.

    Basically, after I tried all the solutions for the most part they gave me to try to fix the service pack and nothing came. I tried CCleaner and nothing. I'm now desperate beyond this point.

    -Another solution was to do a 'sfc/scannow' in the command prompt, I do it and the report comes with 1 corrupted file.

    "The details are included in the convertible bonds. Journal windir\Logs\CBS\CBS. Newspaper. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log.

    Not really but do understand, he moved.

    -A final solution that I began to resort to the had to reinstall windows vista home premium again. But demand for the solution that I choose the 'upgrade' choice, but has been grayed out not because of my version of windows is quite recent.

    Yet once, did not. I'm in a tight jam. My last resort is a wipe to CLEAN the computer and reinstall all programs. The problem is, I don't really know what important programs to save, because my father was the one who set up this computer at the time, and I had no idea on how to put it together after a clean reboot.

    Unfortunately my father is no longer here, so I'm completely alone with this problem. Help, please.

  • I got a phone call from a benny edwards who said Microsoft and had found problems with my computer.

    * Original title: defraud my computer

    I got a phone call from a benny edwards who said Microsoft had found problems with my computer and the pirates had gotten him. As I have had some problems recently with the computer, I thought it was authentic and fell for it? After a long telephone conversation, he forced me to accept that my Bullguard anti virus and my malware Remover is not enough to protect the computer and forced me to buy a program from Microsoft (this man of course) not microsoft. It supports the remote computer, and then forced me to give him my details, name, address, telephone number and age and of course the fool that I am, my credit card number, the penny dropped when he asked the Envoy of money via western union.  When I told her that I was closing the phone call, he told fort and wiped a number of things from my computer, the computer wasn't sure.  I ran my scanner (twice) bullguard, run my anti malware program, changed my password and order my credit card, is there something more I can do?

    To protect yourself, your information and your PC, follow these steps:

    • Change your computer password, change the password on your main email account and change the password for all accounts, including your Bank and credit.
    • Immediately scan your PC with the Microsoft Security Scanner to see if you have the tools malicious/phishing software installed on your PC.
    • As a third step, I recommend that you run the verification of Security Essentials on this page. The check will ensure that the security features in Windows are normally very active and running.
    • Personally, I have a clean Windows installation, because something could have been tampered with.

  • I had to uninstall firefox because it was causing so many problems with my computer. I was using the latest version 18. What is the problem?

    I had nothing else problems since I installed the latest version of Firefox version 18. It crashes my computer no matter what I do. Even if I do not use the browser. I uninstalled three times and the problems just seem to be deteriorating. Finally, I uninstalled and it did not reinstall again. I will not use again until the problems are solved. Also, I don't know is that funmoods or whatever it is that has replaced my google home page. I don't like software to decide what services I use. I've been a user of firefox for more than 15 years. I've never had problems like this before. I spent in Safari. It works without interfering with the other tasks I do on my computer. I don't know what version 18 is but the previous version of firefox that I used was perfectly fine. I had no problem whatsoever with it. It seems as if this version has not been tested enough. Also my daughter is having the same problems with his computer and they all started with the new version. So it isn't just me. At least give us the option to revert to the previous version and we ask if we want to improve when a new spell. However, I never had these problems in the past with any version of firefox that I installed. I like the features of firefox, but cannot afford to keep restarting my computer. It seems that firefox is hindering and then hangs up the computer and I can't do anything else even if I do not use it. It seems to stay in the background and just hang up. Please fix this.

    The problem is unlikely to have been with Firefox itself. It is much more likely to have been with some software or malware you have inadvertently installed

    Installs official Firefox is not bundled with other software. Firefox is customizable and has many extensions of the software you can choose to install but don't have to do anything.

    Funmoods is also a malware or at least software which is often hated to see these messages

    If you want to reinstall firefox official site:

    Then start playback on the malware removal and the toolbar

  • I got a call from people claiming that there was a problem with the computer.

    Original title: scammed by PCWizards?

    A few days ago I received a call from PC assistants saying they were Windows operating system support. They tell me that they have noticed that I had many requests from spam junk that was slowing down my computer. Unfortunately, as I had a big problem with my computer in time, I bit. I was very nervous about it at the time, but since I had so many problems with my computer and that you didn't know what to do, I fell prey to their plot. They talked to me in a 6 month contract for a fee of $99.00. After they have finished the maintenance on my computer, it worked very well, too gullible me thought: maybe they are legitimate.

    At the end of the interview I googled their business and came across an article that has been exposed as the crooks and claims that Wizards PC installs a spyware sophisticated by giving them access to the victim's computer remotely.

    To reassure myself, I decided to call using my Norton Security System. Their technician checked my computer and found a few things that their technology did not that he should have done; such that no detected restore points, the registry was not cleaned (35 detected registry errors) and it did not remove some software malware browers (toolbars).

    On his recommendation, I recalled PC assistants. The first tech I talked didn't seem to know what he was doing, so I hung up with him and sent their support line and ask them to address these problems or I would withdraw the payment from my credit card. Almost immediately after sending the e-mail, another technician called me. Unknowingly, I had all ready filed a dispute with my credit card company. I intend to cancel the service, but I am still concerned by some spyware detected on my computer. What is the best way for me to handle this? How can I get authenic proof that I was definitely scammed and I should report it to the Internet Crime Center? Using my computer for a few basic daily functions, must not be so stressful!  Any constructive guidance would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello

    It's a scam.

    Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.

    You gave them remote access and if you do Internet banking, contact your bank, explain, and change passwords.

    If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.

    And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

    I continue to receive calls from numbers not available with an Indian accent saying that they are from the Technical Department of windows and I have a problem with my computer. Normally, I just say that I don't have and hung up. Today, I took a little further and he said that they discovered that I had loads of malware/viruses etc and that they could identify with them. I was obviously very suspicious because he seemed to have my correct Windows ID number and with care on 'Run' he told me to type things like cmd eventviewer and inf where he referred to a file 1394.pnf. I stopped while he asked remotely to access my computer. However, I got a phone number 01916450337 and his P786000 id I noticed that many people are posting on your forum-is this another one of those scams?

    Continue to put the phone down. They are all crooks.
