Please help!!!.

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

Check out Microsoft's website, and search for error 1335.

 

[D€vIL²]

yeah, try this maybe:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314810

 

[noQ]

maybe the cd is just scratched or something ?

 

[bliink]

Try returning it as defective goods.

 

[Flasher]

Thanks guys, the link to the Microsoft site http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;314810
Method 2: Change the memory settings for installation
helped, me.

Thankyou very much.

 

[Flasher]

Noooo!!

Now that that problem is fixed, another one has arisen!!!

When HL2 is started up it goes to the valve logo and then crashes.

pls see hl2.jpg

 

[^Ben]

I think you might have bad ram, or a bad PSU.

 

[Flasher]

Thanks

I had faulty RAM and replaced it under warranty thanks.

 

[^Ben]

Good to know you got it sorted.

 

[LaXRox]

im having that same problem with some programs. im getting that application memory thing too..cant solve the problem...is it the RAM? cuz i upgraded some RAM. The old RAM used to run at 133mhz and the new one is 333mhz.

 

[^Ben]

The ram might be bad or the PSU might be bad aswell.

 

[LaXRox]

wats a PSU?

 

[DEATH eVADER]
