I was thinking about trying the live update for the BIOS, but I am on vista 64, and it isn't listed as a supported OS on the live update. Even though most things that work for xp work fine for vista, I don't want to take the risk on something like a BIOS update. Gonna try and mess with the...

For some reason, my floppy drive is being uncooperative (light is stuck on and it's telling me there's no disk in the drive), so I can't flash up to 1.5, i'm stuck on 1.3 for now until I can figure out what's wrong with that. I actually tried 1.4 on the NB with the same settings I've been...

What's the recommended max on the northbridge (with the optional fan attached)? 1.4 is safe? I do have pretty good airflow through my case, and the side door is usually off anyway.

Actually, as of right now, I'm running with 1334 linked with a 9x multi (3.0GHZ), all voltages and settings are the same as my previous post, and I'm so far into 30 minutes of 4 Prime95 sessions with no errors at all. Temps are all the same too. If this is actually stable, I'm a happy...

Ugh! You're right. I'm so out of the OC world since I haven't done it in years... Ok, so I ran P95 with 4 instances for all the cores, with stock volts except NB: 1.35 and VTT: 12%, 9x311 (2.8GHZ), and after about 20 minutes of P95: Core 0: 56 Core 1: 54 Core 2: 50 Core 3: 52 All is...

Well, I just got my new rig up and running yesterday (in sig). Been running for about 24 hours now with the specs in my sig and on Vista Ultimate 64. Prime 95 running stable @ 2.8GHZ with the following: C1E, DOT, EIST, Spectrum stuff all disabled 9x311 (2.8GHZ) VTT: 12% NB: 1.35...

Hey Akuma, I have the same board and CPU (b3 Q6600), what settings do you think would work well for a 3.0GHZ OC? That is my target OC, and I don't really care to go higher than that. Also, is maxing the VTT% at 20 really helping? Seems kinda high. Any settings relevant to getting this chip...

Would you mind posting your bios settings that were different than Akumas? I have a MSI P6N Plat with a Q6600, but it's a g0 like yours, not a B3, so I'm trying to get a ballpark area of where my settings/voltages should be. (using a Tuniq 120 cooler so I should be able to push the chip a bit).

Well, I've been hearing a lot of people on forums saying that most of these 22" LCD's right now are using the same TN panel and to disregard any inflations on numbers like the contrast on the sceptre being 1200:1, it's not noiticeable. But I think I read someone say that the ChiMei one actually...

I'm stuck between the Chimei 22" or the Sceptre 22"... I'm kinda an LCD "noob" so to speak, I've been on a CRT for a quite a while, but I've decided to go up to $450 shipped for a new LCD. I will use it for gaming and some minor graphic dev (illustrator/flash). Which one of these will I probably...

I'm working on learning C++ by the book. Ofcourse the first programs you make are simple and command line based when they are run for the most part. I am in WinXP. After editing the code from the simple first program "Hello World", which we all know how simple that is in all languages, for some...

Thanks Man! :D Dan

How do you turn on Use MFC in a Static Library at a certain point in time in your project? I know that in the beginning when you create an MFC application, there are some wizard options and one is to enable Use MFC in a Static Library, but that makes it so that it's permanently on throughout the...
