$10 pokerstars transfer if u help me with this....
I have an older 2001 Dell XPS 450. I tried to download Microsoft office on it and slightly surpassed the memory of 128. Then computer shut down. Now when I try to restart I get a black screen with this message:
Intel Pentium III processor 450 MHz 128MB System RAM Passed So, is there a way for me to delete something that I downloaded and get back into the cpu? I think that its probably overloading the CPU during the attempt to start up. Please leave me ur pokerstars id so I can transfer. Thank you, Indy |

I'm assuming you mean you have 128 Megs of ram. Installing office will have nothing to do with your ram.
Something else is wrong with your computer. PS name is Bramor. $10 plz. |

Ok. But Why would it say memory surpassed? Should I reformat the harddrive? If so how do I do this?

My guess would be that the 128 megs of memory passed the self test.
Does it even attempt to boot? Can you boot into safe mode? Can you boot from a floppy or CD? If so, can you access your c: drive? If you want to format it, boot off your Windows CD (You do have one, right?), and install. There will be an option there to format. |

When I put in the CD or disk and start the cpu i get the same memory surpassed message and no options to continue.

Check your BIOS options for a boot drive order. Usually it'll default to trying to boot off the hard drive first. Change that to cd and try again.

Thank you, Indy [/ QUOTE ] It sounds like a motherboard, CPU or memory failure. This is a hardware problem, not a software one. You should just trash this PC if it's not under warranty (and I assume it's not based on the age). It's not worth the time or money to fix a PC worth a couple hundred bucks. -dustyn |
