    New Asus tusl-2 chipset problem- need help!

    I installed a new asus mobo and cannot find the .inf file anywhere for "PCI System Management Bus". The chipset install utility doesn't seem to work nor does the chipset install utility from intel which does include the 815 ep in its list of supported chipsets, am I missing something here? I...

    Cel 1Ghz (1.2Ghz now?) vs PIII 800MHz

    Hopefully someone else will offer another adapter, a little competition could bring the price down, but this is a end of the road solution for BX chipsets. An Asus TUS mobo for another $30 sounds like a much better deal for now, just a little more work than dropping in a new CPU.

    Asus P3B-F capabilities?

    SharkB8- When you flashed the bios did you use the 1008.004 file? If I remember right, the Award flash program asks for a 100x.awd file. I found this same beta bios but I'am not sure how to flash it since it seems to be a different type of file.

    Beta Bios File Extentions?

    I just found the 1008.004 beta bios upgrade for my P3-BF, however the Award flash utility calls for upgrade files with the .awd extention, the betas are .003 .004 etc... Do these get renamed or what?

    TDK 12-10-32 is it a Plextor ?

    I should have searched first, sorry in a rush, from what I can see they are the same and TDK even supplies thier "own" 1.07 firmware. On my way to B&M before this one disappears! Thanks

    My CompUSA B&M just called and offered this drive as a substitute for the Iomega. If it is the same drive can I use the same firmware upgrade thats being used for the Iomega?

    CompUSA Zip CD-RW status update from Compusa

    While I tried to do everything possible to get one of these drives, CompUSA has been completely irresponsible in their efforts. I was first in line at the N.O. Ohio store when they opened on Sun.. I was told they had Zero in stock but would take the names of the first five people and a shipment...
