I did that same thing already Val, and at least on mine, it didn't make any difference. Let me know when you get yours done - we might need to hit the MSI forums/support for this one. It is too much of a coincidence that both of ours are doing the same thing. I have already been checking that...

I'm going to resurrect this thread here because I am having the EXACT same problem. I'm now in the process of RMA'ing my ram back to Crucial and haven't received my new stick yet. Did you get this resolved Valhalla or anyone else out there seeing something similar?

Thanks Break - I will give that a try!

Hey guys, Haven't done much research into this yet, but figured I would post here first - basically, what I am looking for is a small program (like Ghost Mouse - I think that's the name) that will record mouse movement so that set mouse movements can be run automatically, in addition to getting...

Thanks for the responses guys. I don't remember seeing anything about thermal paste on the Swiftech instructions (they consisted of just a sheet of paper with a drawing of how to put it together) - I will definitely re-look at that however to determine how much of an idiot I am :) I have only...

Thanks a lot for those suggestions guys - I will get some on order now - can you pick this stuff up retail anywhere?? CompUSA etc.?? As to avoid shipping which is as expensive as the TP... Also, have I risked anything on the chip? Is OS instability caused from excessive heat not necessary...

I am not using any thermal paste - yet. Would that really explain that temp though? (Thermal paste is definitely something good however, but would it cool it that much??) I also find it weird that there is a similar issue with that other post in this forum by Qualin....hmmm. What is a good...

I think case cooling is fine - I have 2 fans going in the back, and one in the front, plus two fans on the PS and the Delta on the CPU. My front fan isn't working yet (as well as my case LED's, reset button and stuff, so I need to reexamine my connectors that link those devices to the mobo -...

Qualin, Check out my post that I was literally typing when you posted yours - My Thread We need to discuss this! That is too, too, too weird...just the fact that we have such similar setups... Delsphynx

Hey all, I just recently finished building my own computer, and am having some serious issues with the CPU temperature. The specs of the computer are below (I will make a system rig as soon as I remember my password :) ) Athlon T-Bird 1.33 @ 1.4 (1.85 V, 10*133 - nothing too bad) MSI K7...

Hey all, I recently completed a home-built computer and am having some serious questions about the temperatures I am getting. Here are the specs in question below (I will get it entered into a system rig as soon as I remember my password :) ) Athlon T-Bird 1.333 @ 1.400 (1.85 Volts, 133*10.5...

Hello, There may be an easy solution to this, but as of now, I can't seem to find it - I'm stumped...but what I am trying to do is flash my bios (k7 master) using a boot disk (as is usually done) - however, I can't figure out how to do this in Win2k, since I can't format with system properties...

Bond, Thanks for those sites - are all the 4 in 1 drivers the same (I also checked the official Via site, and they don't have the AMD761 chipset listed...do I still use these 4 in 1)?? Also, what does 4 in 1 refer to?? Geesh, so much more to learn... Thanks, Brian

Bond, I do have an SB Live -- sorry, guess I could have thrown that in - it is a 5.1 Platinum. I do not have those Via drivers installed - everything is the default Win2k drivers at this point besides the sound card and video card (updated Detonated drivers for an MSI GeForce 2 Pro). Any...

Hello all, I just got done building my first computer (yay) - a 1.33 T-bird 266, 256 meg DDR, on a MSI K7-Master running Win2k. I currently have the processor oc'd to 1400 (133*10.5). I am noticing however that it doesn't seem to be handling multiple things as well - for example, I had an MP3...
