Really? Just to make sure than all the nifty new components in my new PC worked, I installed Windows 98 First Edition and had no problems. I also have installed (to a successful conclusion) 2000 Server and XP Professional (XPpro remains).

Did you try to increase core voltage to attempt to get a more stable condition for the 139-143 MHz FSB? Many individuals are getting their 1.6a/IT7 combos to 2.4 in a stable manner. Have you had a look over at overclockers.com?

Tis just as easy to copy the Applications Data, Favorites, and Cookie folders into an archive (WinRAR/WinACE).

Yes, the headphone jack. Also, I believe most consumer sound cards have a line-in jack. notice these are typically not RCA-style. But, most speaker sets for 5.1 are not of this style. I guess I could make it easier (NewEgg.com picture): See the coloful little speaker connectors? NewEgg Photo...

Not really. STEAM is used to send a 500MB cached file to your computer for the beta versions for testers (I was a 1.4 beta tester). STEAM was also used for beta of DMC and TFC, and I believe, if not already so, for 2.0.

I do not know if this is applicable or not to the Home Edition, but check and see if Indexing Services is running. Also, if you are running any Norton AV software, see if the Live File System protection is enabled is it is available.

I think the reason for this is that the USB intermediate subsystem makes the external hard drive appear like a static memory device, like a smart card, CF, etc. Although I could be wrong as I am frequently pointed out as being so. :D

What I stated about visible/invisible conditions is independent of Win98/Me/2K. It has to do with the nature and limitations of multiple Primary partitions on the same physical disk. Of course W2K can see (and read/write) to FAT/FAT32 partitions, including FAT/FAT32 partitions residing on...

danielshoes, in order to do what you are requesting you will need the following requirements met: 1.) Free unpartitioned space on your hard drive, or a means to create/free-up space 2.) A means for creating a Primary partition from #1 3.) A means for storing and running a boot manager to boot...

I don't think so. Its driving an older Sony 10/8/16 CDRW, and the erase activity of a 8X CDRW disc took 40 minutes. I then tried to burn some files, including the /documents & Setting/testuser directory, which was about 32MB in file content, and it errored out. Again, this is not a perfect test...

I'll definately keep all of you informed, and, Bingo13, I'll get those updates first thing in the morning. I will not get off work until Midnight, and its 12:35AM before I'm home. I want to re-try the WD 80GB in the caddy now that I know its was the jumper causing the detection problem. I am...

Okay, here's my first impression/experience with this board ... http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=29&threadid=800603

Sorry, MazerRackham, I got her all wired up today, but ran out of time before I had to go to work. In the morning I'll be spending a good 3-4 hours playing with it at stock configuration, which is ... Intel Pentium 4 1.6A not [yet] overclocked Abit IT7 512MB Corsair XMS2700 CAS2 Gainward...

cmdrdredd, I think you may wanna go play over at the HD groups on AVS forum. A video card alone is not sufficient to compare a worthwhile comparison of HTPC to Standalone DVD player. Also, XGA/VGA is insufficient for HD at 1080i, but if one has the display device then cool beans. Unfortunately...

Not to start an nVidia vs. ATI flame war, but what forum of Counter-Strike players told you to go the ATI path? Admittedly, many of my fellow home theater friend swear by the ATI 8500 cards for DVD video playback, but none of them would consider anything but nVidia for gaming. This also explains...
