Thanks a lot, as the site covers mostly relevant drivers and a wide range of motherboards.
Its a very good idea to cover all these aspects under this section, searching is easy and search results are also quite meaningful and relevant.

ClientPro 385 Win XP Home Recovery CD

A final note about recovery disks. It's not legal for anyone to copy or send out an OS disk. Original recovery
disks are rarely, if ever, available. However, It's quite easy for most users to recreate a recovery disk. I've created hundreds over the years.
Just a few basic steps and you can have your unit up and running again.
Obtain a OS disk from anyone you know.
Install the OS onto your system using their 25 digit cd key.
Once the OS is installed, get the unit functioning fully by first installing the motherboard
chipset driver, then all other component drivers.

Once that is done, you need to legalize your new installing. There are thousands of posts on google that
tell exactly how to change the installation cd key over to your real one. MIcrosoft even tells you exactly
how to do it on their website. Once done, you can activate it and use the microsoft or windows update system

X1000 video upgrade

UPDATE. It was bad solder joints on the ribbon cable. Found used (no new) replacements online but thought they may have same problem, sooo I decided to try to fix the old one. Have repaired memory slot joints before and this was similar. What the heck, can't break it, it's already broke.
Well it worked!! That line on screen I was complaining about never looked so beautiful!
Reworking tiny solder joints is a delicate thing to do but it is possible.
Hope this helps someone.

Not a problem I have all the drivers including the management console for the Dataframe 140
on my site at http://www.mpcdrivers.com. Go to the right side of any page
on the site and click on the link that says Retail Partners. There you will find your 140 link.
If you click on the drivers link, you will find several management consoles, both under the
base units pages and the motherboard pages.

Quiet or "silent" fans?

Mon, 23 Jan 2012 22:35:47 GMT

by xodusss (Posted Mon, 23 Jan 2012 22:35:47 GMT)
Depends on whether it's the fan itself, or just the airflow. Those units generate a lot of heat and do require goood airflow to protect the processor. There is a website I used when setting up the pc/s for building the website at http://www.mpcdrivers.com. With a server and 3 pc's running, noise was an issue. You can find them at http://www.quietpcusa.com/Quiet-Computer-Fans-C6.aspx

Clientpro 365 OEM Configuration

Wed, 18 Jan 2012 23:36:25 GMT

by pctechhobbiest (Posted Wed, 18 Jan 2012 23:36:25 GMT)
The OEM Factory & MS backgrounds can usually be found in the \WINDOWS grouped with the BMP Files (sort by type).

Partition Scheme can be deduced by Opening My Computer and viewing the Hard Disk Drive Letter(s) and Labels.

example:

Local Disk (C:) or Micron (C:) and possibly Local Disk (D:) or Recovery (D:). Sometimes the Recovery Partition is hidden.

Alternately, one can go to the MMC disk management utility (Right click My Computer > Manage > Disk Management >Disk 0

This should show you a horzontal bar with at least one section. each section is a drive partition; and each will be labeled with
information such as size, assigned drive letter, etc. you can get more information by right clicking on the Disk 0 >Properties>Volumes.

Caution: Be Carefull here. Look Only unless you know what you want to do, and then pay attention.

This is the windows partition management tool, and you can delete, create, or set active partitions.
You can also format and create software RAID configurations here, and some of these operations can destroy your data.
Read any warning messages that may pop up, and choose cancel if you do not want to proceed with the operation.

GX3 BIOS problem

Seems to be a problem with this laptop. I can install a wireless PC card, with drivers. It works fine until I power down, then power up. It can't connect for about 5 minutes. Eventually I can reconnect to the router. I have no specs, so it could have an intenal wireless card. I've seen other's with the same complaint for this laptop.

The Intel 2200bg internal wireless card works well with the Gx3. Plug it in the pci slot on the bottom of the laptop. The antenna wires are in place, just hook them to the card. Which one where(different colors) doesn't seem to matter.

T3000 fails to find battery when new one installed

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:40:11 GMT

by xodusss (Posted Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:40:11 GMT)
That's a common problem with replacement batteries for the transports.
Since they were made by samsung, most replacement batteries are a current samsung
battery. I've noticed on the transport 2300 and 2400, the same problems. On a very close inspection
of the battery contacts, I've found that the multiple pins on the battery are not exactly the same. It appears
that all of the little 2 sided contacts are shaped somewhat differently and may not be making full
contact with the contacts in the battery compartment of the unit. I got 2 units to work but it was a painstaking process. I used copper foil and cut into tiny pieces, carefully pressing them into the battery. Making sure every piece was lined up
and did not slip out of place, I installed the battery and all worked fine. Once the battery is taken out though, they will get moved out of place. They have to be exact so as not to short out the battery or unit. Not a job I would advise for the novice as 1 small contact out of place could ruin the unit

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Video Card Have No Imput Signal

Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:48:38 GMT

by Sharron77 (Posted Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:48:38 GMT)
I'm having a problem with my monitor not being recognized by my computer, all that turns up is a "No Input Signal; Going To Power Save" error message. Earlier today, I had some technicians look at my computer because we were installing a new DSL/Cable connection. They had to manually configure all of our computers, mine had the most problem since it's a Vista-run computer, the other two on the network are XPs. They did use the command prompt a couple of times, but besides that, I'm not sure what they might had done.

Regardless, the computer was working before they touched it, and now it is not. I cannot look at the BIOS option or anything, because after it flashes that error message, it merely goes blank. The CPU fan, and the other fans are working, the video card has a red light that means it's working and there are no "beeps." I have used this monitor on another computer (one of the ones on this new network, an XP-run computer) and it worked. The keyboard lights (Num Lock, Caps Lock etc.) do not flash upon startup like they usually do.

I have an ATI Radeon HD4850 video card, 4GB of Kingston RAM, and a 3.0 GHz Core 2 Duo processor. Running Vista Ultimate SP1.

I've attempted to remove the video card and running on integrated graphics, still the same problem, I've also made sure to check all the connections and seat the video card/memory properly, still a no go.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should try?

That being the case, you need the motherboard driver itself. Unfortunately, that unit is so old I don't have the
board driver on my website. Here are the drivers and info I do have for that board

It is possible the motherboard is bad, but usually once they go bad, you can't start up at all. I would check the psu first. I've run across tons of them around here at swap meets and such for a buck or less. Cheap way to test out the theory at least. Hope you can get it up and running

netFRAME 3620 SERVER beeping

Wed, 28 Dec 2011 13:13:14 GMT

by lcd (Posted Wed, 28 Dec 2011 13:13:14 GMT)
My office server, a netFRAME 3620, is beeping quite loudly, at about one second intervals, for the last week. No one was able to silence the beep. I cannot see any other warning light or error.
It is very hard to work with this constant noise.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Transport T3200 MoBo

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 13:38:51 GMT

by sbest67 (Posted Mon, 26 Dec 2011 13:38:51 GMT)
So, I got this Transport that somebody had tried to work on (figured what the heck, for $25 maybe I could make it better, if not, oh well). After cleaning the excess thermal compound off, removing the dust bunnies and re-assembling it, I get no video or reaction to power. The power light comes on and stays on, but no fan, no video. I then stripped the system out (on the hope/fear that they had dropped a screw and it was causing the probs) and tried it out of the case. Still no video, but power light comes on and stays on. No fan spin at all. Presuming dead motherboard, but thought I'd check first. I have detached all peripherals, so am testing with CPU, video card, and a 512MB RAM module, and external monitor.
Anybody have any ideas on a way forward?
