Today is rainy day. I don't like rain,but now it's good. Yesterday was 40C and now.... 24C.

It is raining for more than last 50 hours continuously

Not a heavy rain all the time, still we are under threat of a flood . A huge portion of our province (West Bengal, India) is already flooded , and if it rains even more, which will make Panchet Dam to release more water, there is a trouble for us

Weather forecast for coming two days is more than heavy rainfall

Wow Arc you hang in there. That's a big dam took a look on google earth. We in my area are into are about 70th day of them letting out record amount of water (150,000 cfps) we have 8 more days of that then it will drop 5000 cfps a day en-tell to get to 40,000 cfps can't wait

Yes Frederik , you are right . I made a post about one year ago, and today a new member thanked me for that iTunes won't start, on a locked disk... list goes on.

Jerry, I can remember the last time when it flooded in the year 2K . I was safe, my home was not under water (it's a highland) , but when all your friends were in trouble by a natural calamity, it was more painful that I am safe So I tried to stand beside them at my best , but my (and a few lucky persons like me) capacity was very limited those days .

Edit : about the thread I linked, there is another type of problem where the disk marked to be read only .... and that cannot be fixed by that method . My friend Timo (TimSmitt) told me that he will make a script for removing read only marks from drives, but I am missing him for a long time

Good help FredeGail, and good learning experience These days, due to circumstances beyond my control, I don't help much. More use 7F to relax, and try to help on the occasional post. I still spend time here, but it is all useless posts. A Guy

If you give us the model number, we can look it up and let you know.

512 mb RAM is kinda low, with the RAM prices these days I would put at least 2GB in there.
Depending on what you use it for you might not notice any difference, although it should run a bit better.

Dave hello.. It's taken me until now to find my info.
Model #..(GM) MFAT X PNT YKT
for Windows XP Sp3...Gateway Media Center
SERIAL #...0030028193
I hope this info is helpful.
Thanks for any help on this.

Your motherboard should be an Intel.

Intel Desktop Board D845PESV/D845PECE Technical Product Specification

1.7 System Memory
The Desktop Boards D845PESV and D845PECE both have two DIMM sockets and support the
following memory features:
• 2.5 V (only) 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
• Unbuffered, unregistered single-sided or double-sided DIMMs
• Maximum total system memory: 2 GB; minimum total system memory: 64 MB
• DDR333/266 MHz SDRAM DIMMs only
• Serial Presence Detect (SPD)
• Suspend to RAM

You will need DDR333 2.5v 184-pin RAM.

From Newegg:
Mushkin Enhanced Green 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 333 (PC 2700) Dual Channel Kit System Memory Model 991372

This one is $60, the other one listed is $80.

DDR3 abd DDR2 RAM is pretty cheap now, on a good sale you can get 8GB for that price.

Since DDR, for your computer, is not used much anymore the price is going to be pretty high.

If you computer is doing what you need it to, you might want to leave it the way it is.

Dave hi.. thanks bunches.. for your reply..Yes it's IntelPentium 4 which can be expanded to 1024 MB. out of 160 GB or storage.. I still 139GB Free. I think we can leave it as it is now then.. since it's quite old.. I'll probably run a new one under it before too long.
Again thanks so very much.:)
