by the way UOD, 400SC is supposely a server. However it has the same chasis as the high end Dell 82 or 83 or 8400 (sorry I forgot). So basically you just get a cheap barebone and put the goodies you want inside

Turns out the USB controller chip on the mobo was dead. The cell phone data cable sent a current to the chip and killed it. Called dell and they RMAed me a new mobo overnight and it's working fine now

thanks for all the help

Sorry I didn't explain the problem with more clarity. The rig was running XP Pro SP1 then upgraded to SP2. For a couple month the USB ports worked fine until my sister decided to uninstall the SP2 so she can use some cell phone software. The pc screwed up after she uninstalled SP2 and I formatted ...

Thank you all for your advice/suggestions

qball15j you are right. I am not very experienced with wireless network.

Anyways, I installed the utility program that came with the adapter. It can dectect my wireless router under site survey with an avg. 50-80% signal, but the status keeps showing "connecting." What gives?

a dell tech came over yesterday replaced the MB, CPU, RAM and everything is good now

Bluesky

thanks for the help and suggestions!

I phoned dell tech support again.. and found that Dell has a diagnostic CD.

turns out my CPU might be bad (according to the CSR) it says there is no cache.

Bluesky

really appriciate the help!

I tried what Trev suggested, but when I pop in the floppy, it says "NO WD drives found"

I checked my dell packing slip, it does say WD HD XL40.

one other weird thing is, I have a 256mb ram, but in the bios and hardware manager only show 248mb?...

thanks again,

Bluesky

thanks so much for the help!

I have noticed on task manager my CPU is always running at 100%, which is very weird. I tried to do a memory test, but it's taking so long, I will try again tonight.

My HD is WD, I went to their web page and couldn't find any program that is called zerofilling?

I did format my HD completely, but when I am re-installing WinXP Pro, it says can't install INI file, parameter error?

thanks Trev!

Bluesky

thanks for the reply, but I think it's a hardware problem?

I re-installed WinXP last night (since 6EST time) and it's still not completed this morning at 8am. I have formatted the HD, so the machine should be reset to default setting, but it is still extremely slow.

Any suggestions?..

thanks!
