Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form.

If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 I can't seem to find squat on specifics of that BIOS... the best I come up with is this: http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/ma...ID%20Guide.pdf one of the sub sections is "Setting Up The BIOS"...yep, its for RAID, but it does give a picture of the main screen of the BIOS...my best guess is the USB configuration settings are in the Advanced Chipset Features section follow the directions in that manual to get into the bios from boot up, then use the arrow keys to navigate to the chipset section and hit enter, that will pop up what you can play with...you may have to use the arrows and hit enter again to navigate further (can't say as I can find no manual for the BIOS)... for my BIOS, on an Asus P4C800xxx MoBo, the usb settings have the ability to enable usb 2.0 and to also set its speed (high preferably)..I also take the time to disable legacy usb support as that is known to cause issues in some cases and having it disabled causes no use of usb problems for me...

| Upgrading an old USB 1.1 PC to USB2.0 Peerless & PickaxeFairy I just want to make a suggestion here that may save PickaxeFairy a lot of hassle. Now, as I said before, my PC is older than PickaxeFairy's and I had the problem of running external USB2.0 HDs on and older PC with only USB1.1 facilities. Well, the easiest thing to do is install "PCI to USB2.0 card", available from Dabs 4 Port USB2.0 PCI Card (with CD-ROM manual and drivers). It can be installed in minutes, there is no fiddling with the BIOS or anything else, just straight forward plug and play USB2.0 facilities without any fuss or bother. PickaxeFairy may require help to open her PC to install this card but it is very easy to do and only takes a few minutes. UK Bob |

| that could be a viable option, but the machine is supposed to support usb 2.0 according to the rather sparse manual that is available....my thought is that possible usb 2.0 is not enabled in the bios... another thought is that for some reason windoze might not be operating correctly....here is a little article that explains how to verify if usb 2.0 is being used: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/connec...faq_intro.mspx

| Thanks for your answers Peerless & Bob. Peerless - Have checked out the info you gave me.... Seems I am USB 2.0 'enabled'.... If I'm being totally honest though - the rest of it was like a foreign language to me.... I get the concept of it all (well kind of  ) - but I guess I'm just not confident enough to fiddle about with stuff that I don't *really* understand or know enough about. The last thing I wanna do is muck about with my pc when I don't have sufficient knowledge to know what I'm actually doing....Obviously I need to look into this subject more comprehensively - but I'm grateful to you for getting me started and on the right track.... Bob - I read what you said - and checked out that 4 Port USB2.0 PCI Card you mentioned.... It's just the opening of my pc that worries me slightly.... Tbh, I wouldn't have the first clue on how to go about it.... Sure, I know how to open my pc.... but 'installing' things - well that's a whole different ball game.... I am though still under warranty.... so if I was to go ahead and buy said item - maybe I could get the engineer to fit it....? Last edited by PickaxeFairy; January 20th, 2010 at 10:46 AM. |

| I had a computer with USB 2.0 on the back, while the front USB ports were 1.0. I don't know why they did that. Anyway, I mention it just in case. As far as installing a PCI card, it's not much more difficult than changing a lightbulb (and you don't need anyone to turn the ladder!). You probaby know someone who has installed something; ask them to show you how. It really doesn't get any easier than installing a USB card. |

| Cheers Blackhorse.  So this installation thing isn't that difficult then....? Well if that's the case and there's a chance it might improve performance - then I guess it's worth a try.... I might even take the bull by the horns, get brave and have a go myself.... Now that could prove interesting!  Last edited by PickaxeFairy; January 27th, 2010 at 12:39 PM. |

| When it came to it - I kinda thought better of it.... Me being the dozy cow I am - I'm sure I'd have done something I shouldn't have and *inadvertently* invalidated my warranty.  I've therefore taken the easy way out and got an extended warranty bloke out He's coming tomorrow afternoon.... Bearing in my mind my recent pc 'issues' - is there anything I *really* need to ask or bring to his attention....? Things perhaps I haven't thought of that one of you lot has....? All replies/suggestions will be most appreciated. Last edited by PickaxeFairy; February 10th, 2010 at 02:47 PM. |

| I agree with you Peerless.... Am just rather interested as to what the so called 'experts' have to say.... They've not exactly helped me much in the past - it has to be said.... They come round, fiddle about with my pc, push some buttons, act like they know what they're doing, re-start - and lo and behold - everything's still exactly as crap as it was before.... I pity the poor guy who's coming round tomorrow - I'm gonna keep him hostage 'til he sorts everything out! Last edited by PickaxeFairy; February 10th, 2010 at 03:23 PM. |
