    Leadtek TV card + cable box ?

    Hello all, Basically.. I get about 10 channels (not 2-13) w/ the direct feed into the TV card. I would order a box from the cable company, but then I wont be able to record on the fly, nor use the winfast remote.. which kinda defeats the purpose of this card. does anyone know of a signal...

    voltage dips after geForce 4 ti4200 install

    I DID!!!.. :) I picked up a Antec TRUE480 last night! I know, it's probably a little overkill, but Fry's didnt have the 430 in stock. It was a little on the expensive side @ 119, but I had some Fry's credit, so it didnt hurt so bad. heh. Installation went smoothly, except for the fact that...

    voltage dips after geForce 4 ti4200 install

    Ben, that makes sense.. the psu Im using now is the one that came with the case, probably a royal pos. Thanks for the heads up there. btw.. I had previously gone from 1.5 to 1.6v in hopes it would clear up the dip, no luck there. I guess the PSU is getting the boot. thanks alot everyone. I...

    voltage dips after geForce 4 ti4200 install

    Jeff, when I benchmark with this card and the cpu at 2.6, it will reboot spontaneously. But at 1.8-2.4, it's stable. -Tony

    voltage dips after geForce 4 ti4200 install

    Sys: p4 1.8a @ 2.4 asus p4b533 350w ATX PS BFG Asylum geForce ti4200 128MB whenever I play a game or benchmark (usually a few seconds into it actually), my mobo starts beeping like crazy. At first I thought it was the cpu throttling as I just slapped on a new cpu fan (spark7). But after...

    1.8 Northwood SL62P-- Worst Overclocker Ever!

    I have an SL63X B0 p4 1.8 on p4b533 crucial 512MB 266ddr @ 1:1 CL2 stable @ 2.4 w/ 1.525 vcore (the board wont do an even 1.5) stable @ 2.6 w/ 1.55 vcore havent tried anything higher, as it gets a bit hot @ 2.6 running prime95. Still.. I'll be clucking this thing soon enough in favor of a...

    @ what temp does your northwood start backing off?

    wow. This is the other strange thing.. in MBM, cpu temp is at 51*C, but Sandra says it more like 39-41. Although, I can sit and watch the temp in cmos rise to about 43*C, so I'm not quite sure what to believe at this point. I guess it's time to open another ticket with the help desk. thanks...

    @ what temp does your northwood start backing off?

    Thanks for all the replies.. that's what I was afraid of.. Ive never been able to get Probe installed on this box.. I've tried installing the last 3 releases and I get the same error each time. It appears to install fine, then when started it looks for a file called bcbsmp35.bpl, which it...

    @ what temp does your northwood start backing off?

    I've un-oc'ed my 1.8A in an attempt to find where it overheats and starts running at a lower clock. When my mobo (asus p4b533) starts with the audibles, cpu temp is at about 55C(according to MBM), but I find this somewhat hard to believe, as the POS idles at 51C. That's even with my Tt Spark 7...

    p4 1.8a.. MBM confusion..

    Hi all.. this is probably a noob question, but Im hoping someone can help here. I have a p4 1.8A (B0 stepping) on an Asus P4B533. I installed MBM 5 a while back, and I'm a little confused on the sensor readings. What I THOUGHT was the cpu sensor, may in fact be the case sensor I suppose.. and...
