(solved)would 2 gb ram for my intel mothre board spoil the boot
jraju:
Hi, all i even tried to disable pci express my video card in the bios and tried. i want to know the reason for this behaviour. I assume that when my computer is connected to the lcd monitor which has higher resolution than my crt monitor, the os is possible to install. but when the same was connected to my old monitor, it went awry.how to set resolution during install.since win seven os installs drivers on the installation of os, it is possible that it could have adopted higher resolution. with my limited knowledge in this boot process, i could only think of factory reset of bios, which i did. but still could not succeed. is there an y difference in the bios settings due to the installation of os with different monitors will give different results. so os is interdependent on the monitor and mobo undoubtedly

For one RAM module to pull another down and cause overheating, then either the module is defective or the slot is.
You computer is designed to run up to 4GB of RAM so you should otherwise be able to use the 2x1GB sticks.
As for that Win 7 tutorial, I don't understand it either as you are booting up with the install disk and not opening in Windows as you would for a repair install.
If you were opening the install disk in Windows, you could tap F8 to go into the Advanced Boot options to select Safe Mode and then insert the disk, but once the Custom install starts, I don't see how that's possible - perhaps Shane will have a different take on it.
I don't have any experience of desktop settings (using a laptop) and the only way I know how to change the resolution is in All Control Panel Items and click on Display then on Change Resolution or using the settings in CCC for my AMD chip.
Googling cannot install win 7 using crt monitor came up with a number of links which I think you should check out and may give you some ideas which you could apply.

See if this article helps - there's a bit on CRT monitors lower down the page. http://www.thewindowsclub.com/adjust-your-monitor-for-better-screen-resolution-in-windows-7

hi, boggins,\\
the problem is that os could not be loaded since nothing could be done, the hdd was cleaned fully. But the os which was installed by the technician with his lcd monitor, could not be booted with crt monitor which has lesser resolution. tbe crt sett ings could not be attempted. today, technician says that there is mother board issue connected . Boggin, could the video card be removed and os installed and then video card is inserted. would we able to see the loading if this is the problem. I mean would the windows default load its own resolution while installing, the video driver of mobo, be installed later after the install of windows. the cmos battery removal had not solved the problem or it was not as it should be . the bios if could be restored to factory defaults then there should be no problem in installing os now with my crt monitor. i did not experiment with this idea.
If what boggins say that the mobo is the issue either in the slot or in the peripherals, then it has to be repaired. If it involves replacement of mobo, then i think it is worth to reconsider buying a assembled set of latest intel five core mother board with required , so to say a new computer . since the rams are working, i think, that if the technician knows how to factory set the bios, then the issue would be over.
