Hi, i thought i should let you know how the story ended :)
Went back to the shop and exchanged my [LG Electronics 320GB 70 euro's] for a [Fujitsu Siemens 1000GB 75 euro's] and so far not a single hitch :D
It's a bit bigger and has it's own power supply, but appears to be more reliable, thanks...
Thanks for your help, i had already tried to contact the manufacturers, but there site is clearly designed to be unhelpfull, even with software updates, although i get the impression there isn't any for this device.
I did as you said, unistalled it, plugged it back in and it installed again...
Hi, my thanks in advance for any information you can give me on this problem.
I brought an External HDD (LG Electronics, 320GB) before 3-4 days, plugged it in and it worked, it also worked on my laptop, 2 days later it stopped working on the computer (stationary) ...
so i did a little...
And wtf does that mean? :thdown::thdown::thdown: thats not helping in the slightist :) all i know is i have a computer that i could once play warcraft on and now i can't, video card? wtf is that? :(
Bump!
Sry about the delay in reply time, i have been v busy over the last 10 days :eek: ok, i put dxdiag in the run command box and noticed only 1 thing that was clearly wrong, here's what it says:
"The system is using the generic video driver. Please install video driver provided by the...
:D
Yeah got all the necessary bits 'n' piece's i.e
SpyBot
HijackThis
Hitman (causes slowing, removed it)
Just did ComboFix and got system restore working :P
^^lol
Must be a different problem, if you can play through world editor by clicking a map, i just get the same error, well bit different but relatively the same.:)
Just got system restore working and help and support/had this malware called wav2008, tricky devil :D ( Got help from here...
Ok, more serious reply this time :P
This site has been very usefull in many ways, but still, i didn't have home internet for over a year and learned everything from trial and error.
In my opinion this site should exploit it's tutorial area, i.e a big sign that reads TUTORIALS HERE! for new...
Yeah . . . so that didn't work.
Erm ok, if it's not DirectX it must be that the Driver is not current, what ever that means :D
Anyone know what that means? ;)
----------------------------------
I'm just curious, but erm is ATI some sort of Driver related program?
The reason I'm asking is...
Y will try and contact them, hmm . . i might try getting a more updated version of DirectX first and seeing if i can overwrite the DirectX that already exists :P (you never know, it might work ^^) erm I've also got another problem which i need help with :(
My corsair, I'm sure this shouldn't be...
No joy ^^
i don't think it's patch related, i had it working fine for ages, then the virus's and a bit of the registry going missing, i have had this problem, tried re-installing it and found that i still had the same prob :banghead:
Thanks for trying though:thup:, any other idea's :)
When i try to load Warcraft III i get this:
Warcraft III was unable to intialize DirectX 8.1. Please ensure you have DirectX 8.1 or newer installed and that your display drivers are current. DirectX 8.1 may be found on your Warcraft III Install CD under options.
I have had a few problems...
