    YAGT: Best Friend's newly ex-girlfriend wants a relationship with me

    OP: I had a really good friend who was in the same situation as you are. About year and a half ago he started dating my ex-gf of five years. I though I could be cool with it, after all he was a "nice guy" and I thought he would treat my ex good, so I confronted him and asked him how long he had...

    YAGT: Why EX's don't make good friend

    If you really love a person, you will continue to do so even when it's over. I broke up with my ex 3 years ago and I still miss her sometimes, even though the way our 5 year relationship ended was a mess. She ended up leaving me for my friend. Betrayed by two people at the same was something...

    Asus A8N-VM CSM Trouble with q-fan and microphone

    Why would you even want to use q-fan if you have speedfan? Just disable it in bios and set the target temperature for speedfan instead.

    6150 -vs- NF4 mATX

    Depends, what you want from the board. I own the asus and I have to say it's still pretty buggy. The rear usb-ports don't work properly, they cause my wireless mx1000 to lag. I had to install extra usb ports to got it working. C'n'Q doens't work either. I have annoying coil noise in my...

    Asus A8N-VM CSM

    I did some slight overclock testing with it couple of days ago. Only program I used to test stability was 3dmark2001. I used IGP while testing. I got 6219 marks when I ran my x2 3800+ at 240x10 and memory multiplier was 166 (effective ddr 400), I ran my crucial ballistix at 2-2-2-7. When I tried...

    Asus A8N-VM CSM

    "Well, I'll answer this one myself - don't go using beta bios's unless you enjoy re-installing windows. After flashing the Bios 0403 to 0502 and booting the OS, XP went into a complete plug & play dance and redetected all the hardware except for my Nova-T digital tuner card, nothing I tried...

    Asus A8N-VM CSM

    Wow that's sweet. Does it fix the buggy 4 usb ports aswell? I solved my mouse issues by installing extra usb2 device to port 5. No more problems with power loss or lagging. I also have a some beeping noices coming from the rear of the mobo, if I use fading effects in display settings. I guess...

    Asus A8N-VM CSM

    Same thing here. Cool & quiet doens't seem to work. I got the same bios etc. I tried the with both 1.2.2 drivers and the drivers that came with the mobo. Seems pretty buggy to me. My diNovo mouse is acting strange, sometimes it seems to slow down and then "catch up". Worked fine with my last...

    Dual Core AMD Opteron and Athlon64 X2 Previews

    I'd guess that 4400+ beats Intels dual core Extremely Expensive any day... You cannot compare these prices to Intels dual cores since even 4200+ will be faster then fastest Intel dual core. Yeah sure, I was hoping for low end dual core too, guess I will just buy a venice and buy that dual...

    Terminology

    As for the BIOS part. I meant that when you boot your computer press del, or whatever gets you to your BIOS. Then while in there unplug your hard drive powe cable and listen to the noise difference. Then you can just plug it back in and boot the computer. It would give you an image how much...

    Terminology

    HD silencers can cost quite a bit. To me it would make more sense just to buy a new more silent HD, if your HD indeed is loud. Quick way to test this is to unpulg your HD power cable while in BIOS. I guess the most silent HDs atm are Samsung Spinpoint P80 and Maxtor DiamondMax 10. Most...
