We've set up this forum for those of you who want to post letters into the magazine. All we'd ask is that you label what section your letter is for. We can't guarantee that we'll use everything, but we do try and get as broad a range in print as possible.

The mail and e-mail addresses are still working too.

Hi Ed.,

This is probably for the 'Ask Jason' section, but file accordingly - no not the bin, please.

I posted this a while ago, but it doesn't look like anyone has an answer - can any of your experts help?

At wits end.

Asus A7N8X-E deluxe, Athlon 3200, Thermaltake 430W PSU, 1.5g Buffalo mem, 80g Diamondmax, XP home

Home built computer, just started booting straight to the, 'sorry for any inconvenience' screen. If I try to start into windows or previous best config it freezes. When booting into safemode it chugs along until it reaches - system 32\giveio.sys then freezes. I've tried starting from my original xp disc which starts loading up then freezes. I've reset the BIOS with the jumpers still nothing. I've tried different PSU, different video card and different memory - all from working perfectly system.

I've seen on the web that giveio is installed by a freeware program called Speed Fan, which I do have - but this was installed three months ago.

Anybody the wiser or had the same problem and got a work around - any help much appreciated.

 Cheers,

Matt Barnes

PS. Have just started on an E6600 project but this has also gone horribly wrong - wife asked me why I don't just buy them from the shop like everyone else - I found it hard to give her a good answer!

Post it back into Technical Q&A or Systems Builders.

I have a few ideas, but this isn't the best place to reply to them
