  1. The motherboard has no on-board graphics ports.
  2. Its a display port to vga adapter, i had two, the other one didnt even power on the monitor. It was detected by the computer but no signal. Maybe its a bad adapter but i dont have anymore to test.
  3. The problem i been having is that the monitor flickers very often when there is lots of stuff on the screen such as applications, browsers etc. The monitor sometimes goes to standby/black and comes back on. There are two monitors hooked up to the same graphics card the one that flickers is running through a Mini display port and the other one that doesnt is on a DVI port. The graphics card that am running is an XFX Radeon HD 7970 Black edition 3 GB. Troubleshooting done so far: Updated drivers to the latest. I check the monitor and it seems that any monitor that is connected to the display port flickers and go black. Pluged into another display port and problem is still there. When I pluged into the HDMI port nothing happened. No sure if port is Hot swappable. I did not try the second DVI port as yet but if the problem is still there does that mean the graphics card is dying? Both monitors are running on 1600x 900. The maximum resolution that is displayed on graphics card specification means that each port is able to push that maximum figure? Or is it that all the ports together must add up to that figure?
  4. Well I factory reset the router twice and it still didn't improve the Wired connection. I also turned off WMM in the setting which is for improving Wi-fi multimedia. And that didn't work. I still think that there is some setting to turn off but am not sure what it is.
  5. Hey, I bought a new Linksys E1200 router because my old router died. I install it exacly as it said in the instructions, when it was completed I had wireless and wired connection but the wired connection was slow. When I did a speedtest it was about 1-2Mbps normally its 10Mbps. I tested it on wireless connection and am getting the 10Mbps. I connected it directly to the modem and am getting my full connection. I have also tried different Ethernet Cables and its the same thing. I am not using an onboard network card I have a Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC. I dont think its the NIC since I can get the full connection from the modem alone. I also have an USB Wireless LAN Card for the same computer and I can get the full connection from that using the router's wifi connection. So am pretty sure its something to do with the router but am not sure what to do. Does the router trottle wired connection speeds?
  6. Ok so i changed the pagefile, also disabled hibernate mode, some google chrome shockwave flash stuff and the Nvidia Temp folder and i have gained 26GB of free space this is almost the same amount i have after installing windows so i will stick with that. Hopefully it doesn't disappear again. Still checking through too see what other temp files i can delete stuff from Thank you so much Gabriel for all your help
  7. I ran the programs again and there is nothing to clean up. When i ran SpaceSniffer I found a file pagefile.sys thats 7.9 GB. Am guessing thats the problem. But there isnt a file location for it. Should i just delete it ?
  8. Yes i been having that same problem thats why i started clearing it out. But now am confused again because after i got that 10 GB of free space i turn of my pc and when i came back i have 2 GB of free space WT....... where did it go
  9. Ok so from doing everything that was said in this tread the drive went from a couple MB of space to 11 GB of free space :lol: B) Thank you so much for the advice. I still think i can make some more free space. Am wondering now do my fellow computer enthusiast here, do these kind of things regualarly ?
  10. Not sure should I post there instead ? After using the SpaceSniffer application i can see where the data is being used. Looks like some applications can be moved so i can free up space such as Heartstone, Nividia drivers.
  11. I was just wondering if i should bother trying to make space or i should just reinstall OS. Also if i reinstall the OS wouldnt the space be fill up sooner or later?
  12. Only disk cleanup i did was CCleaner with everything checked. I can try that software and see what happens.
  13. I didnt try a defragmentation as yet i can try it. Also i dont store anything on that partition, programs are store on the rest of the 500 GB hard drive and i have a 1 TB hard drive to store everything games, pictures, documents etc.
  14. I am currently running Windows 7 64bit operating system. I have been using it for about 4 years now and it works not problem. Recently I have been seeing that the available disk space is getting smaller and smaller until i have only a couple hundred MB. I have run full CCleaner with almost every thing checked and I have deleted everything i can in the temp folder and this only increases the available size to maybe 1 GB and then its reduced again. The OS is installed on 60 GB partition of a 500 GB seagate hard drive. I was planning to reinstall the OS but am not sure if i should or what i should do welp
