check what version of the BIOS you have now - hit the delete button and navigate around till you find it

latest BIOS is here
Intel® Desktop Board D101GGCÂ[at]BIOS Update [GC11010N.86A]

read the readme - http://downloadmirror.intel.com/11738/ENG/README.txt

it might support a single 2 gig stick in 1 slot with the latest BIOS

?Fixed reboot issue with certain memory modules.

it might be worth a try if you are confident enough - flash the BIOS ( if you do not have the latest already ) and see if it boots correctly.

the latest BIOS also says

?Updated processor support.

you would have to hit the forums and do a bit of reading to see exactly what that means.

Thanks for the ideas - i cant' update the BIOS - I don't have a floppy!
and all of the sites that claim you updatefrom CD/DVd are worthless, tried already, waste of time! Tried again and again - doesn't work.

The second piece of shit i bought was as ASUS 9400 gt graphics card - and, whether due to this problem or not, the CD ROM drivers will not even install, its an EN94000GT to be exact, another 2K down the pan!!

Question - (now I have the ATI driver working and am no longer in VGA mode) if I plug in the card, can I simply install the drivers rather than going through the whole CD install and installing the crap system software too?

Thanks a lot, for your effort, however, 1 I have no floppy, and 2: I spent about 4 hours unnsuccescfully trying to make sense of a few toss pots ideas of how to update the BIOS via a CD.DVD - in the end - I gave up , it was a cmplete hocus pocus pile of shit that simply wouldn't work!

Fuck it - I'll take the whole shit load in to the Com Plaza tommorrow - let them get on - enough fuckin headaches! -get it working or "money Back" That should scare the shit out of them - the thought of HANDING BACK some cash should see it fixed pretty damn quick!

Yeah! Insist on your consumer rights!!!!!

Go to SDRAM, DDR2 and DDR RAM memory upgrades from Crucial.com and run the system scanner tool (not the memory tool advisor) on that page. It will tell you exactly what you need.

Two days ago you was planning on dumping 40/50k on a new I7 build, but you go out and buy this piece of poo ???

As it turned out it is like everything you buy here, these CUNTS only care about the CASH!

The memory (DDR PC3200 at 2500 Baht -) does not work

The "NEW" PC does not work - there is a hard drive fail!
You cannot help these cunts! It is unreal why they still have a business -surely there is a limited supply of people you can SHIT
They are born greedy cunts, and will die (I hope - pennieless cunts - they make their own shit -let them die in it, fucking morons!)

Apart from that - The "new " PC keeps getting the deadly blue screen ans a "STACK DUMP" error - the hard drive is making a clicking sound all the time - is this something to worry about??????

When tha PC reboots, as it does on numeropus occaisions, all on it's own, it warns of a SMART error - i.e. the disk is fucked! is this a permanent problem or can it be fixed?

Hmmmm, I feel your pain.

Well you should change your name to "Short Fuse".....first relax......before you "blow your gasket, and kark it" it is only a computer....... I unfortunately have to keep 5 computers running for my business and family needs, and your problem is probably created by changed hardware, and will be simply fixed, if you take it back! When you consider that almost every component is "plug and play" which also means "unplug and don't play" ie, if someone bumped it getting it in and out of the car.......give them the benefit of the doubt, and in any case quietly giving them "a fair go" to fix the problem , before blowing them away, may produce a much better result! If you really want results try the other tack and turn up with a bunch of flowers and suggest that they would be better off selling flowers than fixing computers.......what would you do if offered a bunch of flowers?

Miggins you gotta be kidding me. You never checked what you bought. Then you have to get your son involved because you dont know your ass from a hole in the ground and you are blaming the Thais. No wonder many of them think we are assholes.

cool down mate, bunch of cu#ts that they are, you need to plan your next move,
i suggest going back to the shop and demanding a new one, or, on the other hand you may just get your gun and blow the fuckers away.

up to you

......that would be the smart move.

Why do these things always happen to you, miggins?

I'm sensing a common denominator at play here.

Sell it to the neighbours Miggs

Most Thais don't have to wonder too much about that.

bang your fist on the counter, threaten to burn the place down

those damn gollywogs, they will soon see sense and give you double your money back

Only sensible thing to do. I always do that and it is a lot of fun.

There you are MMiggs, we all agree you have to take a righteous stand against the "new jews" of Thailand

Did you try using the computer at the shop? It was 2n hand right?

Can you take it back with a receipt?

Good luck.

As it often happens, the attitude towards customer service is "mai pen rai."

miggens doesnt sound like a polish name...

it is an old Polish Jewish name, Majid

Miggins, Mrs
Mrs. Miggins is a fictional character from the second and third seasons, played in the latter by Helen Atkinson-Wood. There is a real-life pie shop called Mrs Miggins' of long standing in the Northumberland town of Hexham, near where Rowan Atkinson grew up, though whether this is the source of the character is unknown. In series two, she is the proprietor of a Pie Shop. She is often mentioned but never seen. Percy claims that she is "an old polish Jew, bed-ridden from the nose down". It was also revealed that she planned to celebrate the return of Sir Walter Raleigh by making a commemorative pie in the shape of an enormous pie, prompting Lord Blackadder to remark, "What an imagination the woman has." Blackadder claims the cost of a 'slap up binge' at Mrs. Miggins' is three pence. She was effectively an unseen running gag.

Was the shop on a long straight road?

Yeah, looks like you really got a good deal on that one -- those Macs are just crap. Those PCs are so much better, as we can see -- hey, maybe Butterfly can help you with that, seeing as he walks around with a PC in his ass most of the time.

Try counting and adding up the cost of your time of dealing with a 'great PC deal' - I just buy the Mac I need, it works out of the box, and I don't have to post any long threads about crappy hardware that doesn't work because you thought you knew what you are doing - but didn't.
