hope this helps

It seems you have an IRQ conflict. You install a driver and it wants to use an IRQ which is already assigned to a different device. That's why you can start in safe mode because the drivers for your added devices are not loaded.

The computing phrase "interrupt request" (or IRQ) is used to refer to either the act of interrupting the bus lines used to signal an interrupt, or the interrupt input lines on a Programmable Interrupt Controller (PIC). The interrupt request level (IRQL) is the priority of an interrupt request.

In computing, an IRQ conflict is a once common hardware error, received when two devices were trying to use the same interrupt request (or IRQ) to signal an interrupt to the Programmable Interrupt Controller (PIC).

The PIC expects interrupt requests from only one device per line, thus more than one device sending IRQ signals along the same line will generally cause an IRQ conflict that can freeze a computer.

To view your current IRQ assignments you can open Device Manager. Click on START, click on CONTROL PANEL. Click on Performance and Maintenance. Click on System. Click on the Hardware tab. Click the DEVICE MANAGER button. Once you have Device Manager open, select VIEW from the tool-bar menu, and then click Resources by Type. Double click on Interrupt Request (IRQ). If you are experiencing problems with a newly installed/configured piece of hardware and the drivers are installed correctly, then check to see if it has its own IRQ channel.

To change an IRQ setting follow these steps:
-Right click on the device in the list (see above), and then select properties.
-Click the Resources tab.
-Remove the tick from the Use automatic settings option.
-Select a non-conflicting configuration from the pull down box.
-Click OK.

Sure this is the failure off the unit but make sure that the step down transformer for the power to the unit is faulty or burnt. If so replace the transformer. If power goes tto unit without display then the processor can be faulty . Change the clock timer. unit if you need the timings.

Please uninstall it and reinstall the skype program, this will definitely fix your problem. The problem must be with the update, perhaps incomplete updates or interrupted updates.. Good luck Thanks for using FixYa.

goto tool>option>security>remove all tick mark or restore it and remove all cookies

More often this also means that the CMOS battery is drained (the coin shaped cell on the motherboard). Try replacing the coin-cell before considering a motherboard replacement. Also, after replacing the coin-cell, you have to reset the BIOS to its defaults (if it doesn't automatically do it).

pls check the memory/ram and also check if the cpu fan is working well.

You need to check and see if you have the hoses on backwards,i've done it several times and the same thing always happens,at least now i know why.It makes more work but it's easy to them the wrong.

asus x series mother board s have onboard vga (intergater).All most all ways when you play good advance grapic games Eg:NFS most wonted ,NFS prosteet,hallo 2,woled in conflict,crises. In today oll the games are advance grapic.OK bake to problem.you wont be able to run thos games .get advance vga (saparate vga )set up it .You'll be playing in notime...!
