thanks for the reply, raising the power any bit, even to 133mhz will mess it up. I'll put it to 1 sec intervals when I get home, but it runs pretty stable at 100x11, I just want to use my barton where it should be, at 1.8ghz (plus, i really dont like the occasional buzzing noise coming from the...

I did, it was empty (if it wasnt my computer would've taken forever to flash it!) hmm, i guess i shouldn't even try to get it RMA'd? Id assume newegg can tell i've flashed it witha hacked firmware?

i flashed it back to 1.05 , which were the original factory defaults. for some reason, it wont flash to 1.9 firmware it says "not connected properly"...? but no, it hasnt fixed it, it stilly pretty bad

I bought this 8x DVD burner (OEM) from newegg.com a few months ago, but I've had problems with it for a while now (i just keep not doing anything about it). I admit, and this is probably the cause of the problem, I flashed the firmware to the rip-hack when I first got the drive (so i could...

UPDATE: as you can tell, Core 0 is flucuatiing like crazy and actually never goes about 1.5 (where i think it should be), and +5.00 is never quite at 5, rather at 4.8 or so... I have NO IDEA what any of this means...

Well I just got home, memtest ran all these hours and had 1310% coverage, not one error found, so i guess the memory is fine. Im not sure where I can find a name brand PSU, maybe i'll try to return this one i just bought and get credit for another one, i dunno (i dont think its the PSU...

I left memtest running when I left for work in the morning, its been going on for around 8 hours now, i'll check when I get home. Sorry, what do you mean by PSU -branded? as in a name-brand PSU? or am I being dumb? dont know too much about the tech details of these things. And I only have...

Here are my comp specs: Athlon Barton 2500+ (running at 1.1ghz stock) Cooled with a Coolermater...vornado? very loud keeps it at 30degrees or so. Epox 8rda+ nforce2 mobo (2x512) 1gb Corsair XMS3200c ddr ram Sapphire 9800 pro 128mb (256bit) 200gb Seagate Barracuda HD 8x NEC nd2500a...

yeah, its the circular ones, i grinded off the clip for it to work and it fit. It tried another HSF and it works with that one

nope it doesnt, but the zalman site says its compatible with the fan...

i looked around in bios and couldnt find it, so confused

best buy sucks for instore, they have that cheesy demo playing, it all looks the same for me, i went with the viewsonic, i think i see ghosting, might be my gefore3 ti200 though being laggy, hehe

I got a zalman socket A cooler from newegg today, and when i finally fit it into place ( i had to cut off a clip from it so it could fit right) the computer will turn on then off 15 seconds later. It's on damn well and i put thermal grease on it, yet nothing. I put it another heatsink and it...

I just got a viewsonic 25ms 17 lcd from best buy, and I've noticed a little ghosting while playing games, there was an other option, same price, for an LG 17 inch monitor with 16ms, would there be a big difference in the blur that i would see if i returned this one and got that one? any comments?

Im wanting to buy something from best buy with the 10% off + some reward dollars I have (and I use t best buy card for financing) and im looking a tthese monitors that I have to pick from at my local BB The Viewsonic VX710 17 inch LCD (549.99 before all the discounts) plus an additional 50...
