well i wanna know what is the latency rate in my bios? i can see it is set to 64 but wat does it mean?

[shantanu]

hi ,,

if you are talking about pci latency then its value can be set upto 248 depending on your bios,,

Latency is a value assigned to each device on the PCI bus which determines how long that device may "hold on" to the bus before it must relenquish it to another device which wishes to use it. The value is an integer between 0 and 248. A value of zero means the device will immediately give up the bus if another device wishes to transmit, while a value of 248 means the device will hold on to the bus for the maximum amount of time possible.

Higher values mean that other devices will have to wait longer to be able to use the bus (latency), but will increase the effective bandwidth of the bus due to a reduction in the overhead required to transfer between devices.

for connecting via wifi do we need net connection?

[shantanu]

look if you want to share files and folders and play games then forget wifi local connection .. is wont work due to pre charge delays with connection as router cannot habdle this nuch but yeas for a successfull connection you need a internet connection....

[codename_romeo]

okay we basically wantu play multiplayer games n share files n folders. now tell me what solution do we have(w/o using our net connection).
Distance between 2 homes is 300 mts.

[shantanu]

go for LAN PLAY WIRELESS ADAPTERS they work in 300mtrs and do not use net connection.. available from local computer retailers
__________
OK!!! LOOK you want to play games on lan 300 mtrs. away from each other...

you have a choice..
GO for the two wireless adapters which are called LAN PLAY WIRELESS (LOGITECH AND OTHER KNOWN MAKERS GIVE GOOD BANDWIDTH OPTIONS SO THAT YOU CAN PLAY WITHOUT BREAKS)

NOw these adapters will be connnected to USB ports and to power supplies they both will have one Connection and PHYSICAL PING BUTTONS you have to just install these and install their drivers and software and then you will have to connect both by pressing the first (servers) connect button and physical ping andthen the nodes connect and physical ping.. both will show a log and .exe file created in mydocs you just have to copy these files to a cd or usb flash drive and exchange these files from server to node and node to server and run the exes..

this solution has worked for 500 mtrs. also is is really cost effective.. try in and linksys and dlink also are good makers of these adapters try your local vendors...

[codename_romeo]

how much do they cost friend?

[shantanu]

they both will cost you around 3500/- to 5500/- company wise . amd are coming with 2 yrs, warranty

[codename_romeo]

3500 a piece?

[shantanu]

yeah surely you must be having Ati radeon express 200 x200 chipset with x200 onboard 256 mb ... so yeah you can overclock it..
__________
3500 a pair of two!!!

[codename_romeo]

man give me the process of o/c. and the software used. please tell whether it is safe or not. and what benefits i will get from o/cing it
__________
Please give me a detailed procedure n it is an onboard graphics cards. it shares 64 mb of ram..........& shows 256 mb of graphics memory. You can read it in my signature. Now please write a detailed procedure as i dont have any GYAAN of o/c.

Hi All,

When I am working on my PC, suddenly a blue screen appeared and it displayed a message Physical Memory Dumping, after that the system automatically shut down.

When I restarted the system, I see the montitor power blinking and no display at all. I see the CPU working in the background.

Any solution for this

thanks

vinoo

afaik physical memory dumping occurs when virtual memory happens to fall short.

this is the reason why so for sorting out it :

right click on your my computer icon on desktop and go in properties. click advanced tab ,under performance click settings and then advanced and click change in virtual memory tab... if you have 256 mb ram then set the size to 512-512 if 512 mb then set it to 1000-2000 and if one gb then you should not be facing this problem...

but he is unable to start his pc. Even i know how to increase the paging file. Help him start his pc.............

[Genius_mod]

remove all your recently installed hardware and if you have two memory sticks installed remove one.... and try booting...
__________
one more thing just restore defaults in your mobo bios and try this key function at power up
crlt+tab+numlock (for enabling video shadow mode) as you said that you cannot see the display....

[codename_romeo]

genius_mod give me your yahoo id

[vinookanth]

Hi

thanks for your superfast response.

i have one 512 mb ddr ram.

i have never installed any new software or hardware in the last 1 month.

suddenly the problem came out. I even checked the video cable, b'coz the monitor is blinking no response from it.

I see the cpu working fine (best of my knowledge)

i removed the RAM and again placed.

Do i need to check anything on videocard ( mother board is intel 915 chipset)

thanks

vinoo

[codename_romeo]

i know shantanu !!!!!

I have added u in the yahoo messenger.

if u have a friend near by, get yourself a monitor from his place or take your cpu to his place. First of all test whether your cpu is functioning properly on not.
i know this method is primitive but i believe this can really help you.

[Genius_mod]

do one thing right now just clear your cmos means take the battery of your mobo out and plzce it back after 20 seconds.... and then try and one more thing do you have onvoard graphics or a card...

[vinookanth]

i will remove the battery and place after 20 sec, the graphics card in on the mother board ( no seperate one)

[vinookanth]

i am not near my system, i need to check it once i go back home.

will follow your instructions and if i get problem will let u know

if it works will inform u

hi i have some problem with my tv tuner card the problem is sometimes when i play WMP11 and tv tuner card it crashes and show blue screen and it says system has been restarted and when i restart my computer it says the system has recovered from serious error pls solve this

[Genius_mod]

o you have a tv tuner you didnt gave the company name or model ...
But your system crashes when running tv tuner card and wmp 11 it crashes.

give details about your system config and ram .... basically a poor SMPS AND LOW RAM CAUSES THE PROBLEM...
TELL YOUR OS ALSO AS SOME OS PROBLEM CAN ALSO BE THERE...
so just clear these points ...
