Help, im new so i need some tech talk

[NFSFAN]

OK, you don't have any display adapters installed, good. Now run the driver cleaner, and follow the rests of the steps as I have laid out

 

[indiomono1]

lol sorry man its just this pc keeps restarting whenever im playing games and its been hepenin for about 1 month already and im so sick of it crashing all the damm time.

 

[NFSFAN]

OK, wait hold up. Do what I laid out first, then we will see what happens next. I know that it can be a pain with computers these days, but trust me, I have the same video card as you, and it took me forever to get it to run properly.

 

[indiomono1]

but mines a x16 slotter, and a 256mb
does that make a difference or no?
why couldnt u get the pci ex lane then the agp?
isnt the agp slower?

ahh true true..i just payed more money is it. lol

 

[NFSFAN]

Well you have PCI-E and i have AGP8x, it doesn't really make much difference, since it is the same GPU

 

[indiomono1]

ok i did the cleanin and it showed me 3 things i gotta delete..whats next form there?
ok i deleted those 3 files it showed me to delete..theryre gone now.

ok i did multiple things and selected ATI and now its doing it..sayin please wait..
DAAAAAMMMM it showed abput 60 -100 of those things it delelted...all of ATI right?


lol i was doing them all one-by-one.lol so i dropped them all in the right bow and cleaned eveyrthing with ATI. so whats next man?

 

[NFSFAN]

No, those are the things the program deletes, but also select all of the ati options in the drop down menu. After you do this, make sure you restart your pc, and then install the ATI Catalyst Drivers.
Great, so just wait until it is done, and then restart.

EDIT: CHECK PAGE 3

Yes, all of ATI's stuff must be deleted prior to new driver installation.
EDIT: Now restart, and install the newest ATI CATALYST drivers.

 

[indiomono1]

ok umm since my card is a VISIONTEK do i go to visiontek site? or ATI&AMD site?

 

[NFSFAN]

No, just download the drivers from ATI/AMD website.

EDIT: So how's it going?

 

[indiomono1]

ok new problem.lol
do i download the driver.(since my pc is a media center edition) media center driver? or just windows xp for the video card? fork in the road...

 

[NFSFAN]

You download this driver. http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/mce/radeonx-mce.html

How's it all coming along?

 

[indiomono1]

k gots that one. install then restart then see what happenes next

 

[NFSFAN]

Yup, and all shall be working great I hope.

 

[indiomono1]

well it keeps sayin that i cannot load "MOM.implementation" whats that?

 

[NFSFAN]

can you take a pic and post it. Thanks. Also make sure you have .net framework 2.0 or 3.0 even better, installed

 

[indiomono1]

well it shows whenever i restart it...lol how do i take pics man? im new at this stuff.

well idk how to take "pics" man

 

[NFSFAN]

ok wait your problem is .net framework. Make sure you install the latest version
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...0B-F857-4A14-83F5-25634C3BF043&displaylang=en

EDIT: If that doesn't work then try this one.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...CB-4362-4B0D-8EDD-AAB15C5E04F5&displaylang=en

 

[indiomono1]

another download.lol

so after this, just restart, then lets see from there?

 

[NFSFAN]

Yeah pretty much, but remember if .net 3.0 doesn't work then install .net 2.0, and over that .net 3.0

 

[indiomono1]

oh ok good. cause the MOM. thing showed up again. so imma install 2.0...right?

yep...still showin the "MOM." thing...any other ideas? cause i still restarted on me...damm..this sucks.. =/


edit: ok i installed 3.0 over 2.0 so now i have 3.0...imma restart this...what if it keeps tellin me this MOM.Implentation again? what am i gonna do? :*( lol

 

[NFSFAN]

The MOM implementation, is from the .NET Framework, I know because I had the same problem with Win XP Pro, and since I had only problems, and headaches, I switched to Win Vista Ultimate, and problems were gone. My main concern was not the video card however, it was that my hdd controller did not work properly, and I had a slow response time from my hdd.

 

[indiomono1]

lol. so im better off buying a new pc then?
with vista ultimate...cause buying windows visa ultimate in the stores, then installling it...im gonna get alot of other compatibility problems..so i guess i gotta go buy a new pc..o wel. thnx for the help anyways man. apreaciate it.

but still doin the same thing...restarts and the graphics get all messed up. =/

 

[NFSFAN]

I would say to try and install the latest updates from Microsoft for .Net Framework 2.0.
EDIT: Windows Vista Ultimate doesn't cause any problems, Vista Home Premium, is just a stripped down version of Ultimate

 

[indiomono1]
