What motherboard would be reccomended for a AMD Sempron 3000+ with integrated video and that supports a SATA HD? I am not really a PC GAMER so that is why I want integrated graphics. I was looking at the MSI with the ATI stuff built in but not sure if ATI or NVIDIA is that way to go?

Ok I just bought a 1.2 GHZ Duron with an MSI Kt3 ULTRA. When I fired it up it runs at 49 C at idel temperature. I have not put a load on it yet, but this seems high to me. I am not sure, but I dont think a DURON should run this hot. What is a good temp to shoot for with a duron 1200 without...

If I dual boot XP with XP and one is FAT32 and the other is NTFS, can the fat32 see the NTFS partitions? I dont this this to be able too. If FAT32 XP can see NTFS XP, can I disable FAT32 XP from seeing the NTFS XP? Thanks in advance!

I have got a promise ultra 100, but cannot use it beacuse when recording audio, it creates cliks and pops. When removed the system is perfect so I cannot use an ultra 100.

Probably equal. I use cd to install stuff and listen to music cd's but I use the cdrw to burn tons of backups. Probably the cdrw. If I setup the HD's on IDE1 will I be able to transfer the files between them, fast? If I do that everyone is saying you shouldn't run 2 devices at 1 time on a given...

Anyone wanna explain why I should have my CD as master and cdrw as slave on IDE2? Any more info is much appreciated.

Actually I dont need to backup CD's that often. I backup stuff from the HD's. Music files that I create (FROM MY OwN MUSIC).

Why would you use the cdrw as slave and cd as master? Hmmm, Still cant figure out what I should do...

Would it be bad if I hook the HD's up together and optical drives together and do alot of tranferring between the two HD's. I dont rip from cd to burner that often and can rip to HD first. Would this be better?

I have an MSI k7t Motherboard. I currently have a maxtor 30GB HD (MASTER) and a Sony 40X cd rom (Slave) on IDE Channel 1. On channel 2 I have just a new plextor 16x CDRW (MASTER). I just pick up a 40GB IBM Deskstar HD and want to install into this system for ONLY a backup drive. I will just keep...

No forum for this topic so I will put here: I have a question about how much bandwidth is needed to stream audio. Let's say I by 2k server and want to stream only audio, no video, to users through windows media services. If I have a 960k of bandwidth, how many users at one time can I stream to...

Do I have to unplug the DSL line and then change the network protocls? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank's

Flyer's could be a good way if it is effectiely done. Kids would be a good idea but they might not deliver the goods. Where on the house would you put the flyers? Door handles? Where else are good places to advertise flyer's?

I was approached by a guy at my college about Quixtar and it is the same thing as amway. You work for someone else (Quixtar). That is definetely not your own business, and network marketing sux!
