Hi I have an Intel P4 machine with mercury motherboard which I got in 2004, It has 1GB DDR1 with no other features, Recently I connected a 1080P LED monitor to it.
This machine would not install any of the linux distros except for Debian 6.0.1 or RHEL5 :-( and the response from the computer is also very sluggish. I asked for suggestion in ILUG-C meeting and as per the advise 1. I did try to reduce the resolution size to 1024x768 it did take away some amount of sluggishness however mp4 videos are not playing on it. 2. I even installed xfce as per the suggestion and tried to play the video still the same result. Is there some way by which I can fix this ? How can I find out what is wrong or is that machine really that old ? -- Regards, Balasubramaniam Natarajan www.blog.etutorshop.com _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
