    PC always go to BIOS on boot before Win10

    I thought I updated each of the posts I made but I missed this one! The solution was actually upgrading to the beta bios drivers. So that's problem 57 with this build fixed. Now for other few that just won't go away!

    Intel 750 PCIe SSD = Worst SSD in the world!

    Is there a reason the tool box doesn't update to this firmware version? I think I have the latest toolbox version but it says I'm running version 8EV10135 and that it's up to date?

    Intel 750 PCI 400gb - want to verify speeds

    Have any of you had problems with your PC booting to BIOS after every hardboot as I described in the thread below? This hard drive is giving me such a headache it's not even funny. http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2449455

    PC always go to BIOS on boot before Win10

    Hey folks, I have just finished building my new PC using the new Intel 750 PCIe 4x NVMe SSD and managed to get the OS installed with little trouble. However, whenever I turn my computer on it always goes to the BIOS first. I then just hit Save+Exit without changing anything and it will...

    Crashing and BSOD related to HDD

    Odd scenario now. I decided to change the SATA port the SSD is plugged into and it stopped this issue from coming up. I did this after a friend said they had a similar problem with their SSD's being plugged into neighboring slots on their motherboard. Is this something I should contact the...

    Crashing and BSOD related to HDD

    Hey guys, New build. 2 SSDs. I have an ocz sata 3 with the OS on it that is working fine. I have a second 160g sata II intel which formatted fine. However, after my computer is on for a little while with the intel SSD in, it causes the computer to lock and crash to BSOD And reboot. Once it...

    Best high end full tower case?

    At this point you may as well wait till after the 3rd since the Cosmos 2 is launching then and we can get to see just how good it is and how much they're asking. But I'm in much the same boat as you. The only reason I'm looking for a new case at all is because the Antec900 I have now really...

    Bluetooth Remotes

    Yea, every TV is fine with me. Will RF work with the set top box? Figured I was pushing my luck with bluetooth support. And is there any range or frequency bleeding to be concerned about from neighbors and such?

    Bluetooth Remotes

    Anyone know if the TV set boxes that Comcast and Verizon offer are bluetooth enabled in some fashion? Or if you can use a USB bluetooth adapter on the boxes that have usb ports? I live in an apartment alone and would like to just hook the verizon connection to one box, and then go from that...

    [Retired] The LCD Thread

    Average is fine. Just looking for something with good refresh rate, 22+ inches in size, would prefer a 19XXx12XX monitor. Been holding out for the 2209WA, but it hasn't dropped below $300 in 6 months so I'm doubting it ever will again. Plus I don't know where people get dell coupons and...

    [Retired] The LCD Thread

    I'm trying to spend in the $200-250 range for a nice 22"+ monitor mostly for gaming, web design, and photo editing. Anyone have some suggestions? The first post doesn't seem to a have a good listing of quality monitors on a budget. Only the high-end ones. I had hoped to wait till the Dell...

    Bad time to buy a Zune/iPod?

    Very reasonable way to approach the problem Shorty. Do you know if the iPod has something similar to the Zune HD sync dock? Where I can plug the iPod into a dock attached to a tv via hdmi/dvi/whatever and play movies from the iPod on the Tv?

    Bad time to buy a Zune/iPod?

    Yea, the video is something I'd like to at least consider. It's a major let down that there is no way to load additional codecs on either the ipod or zune as almost everything I download is mkv and it would have been nice to load it on my TV using the Zune dock. But occasionally someone...

    Bad time to buy a Zune/iPod?

    I've been borrowing my brother's mp3 player for the past month, but with me moving soon I need to get one of my own. Problem is I hear there is a new iPhone coming out this year, which will probably mean a new iPod touch as well. I was leaning more toward the Microsoft Zune HD, but then...
