Ok I have never had this problem on my computer before but it has just started showing up after christmas break when i got back to school. My computer has been turned off the whole time so I don't know what could have changed. I have a 2.6ghz HT P4 in a gigabyte 8knxp an ati radeon 9500 with...

Hi, I am ordering parts to build a comp for college and have put together a list of hardware I am going to get. I am not trying to build an awesome gaming rig because I don't play games that often, I just want a comp that is fast with lots of space for movies, music and a fast proc for...

Just went to staples..... $26.40 tax included :) They didn't even question it, I was in and out of the store within 2 min.

Also, on newegg.com the p4b533 says "Memory 3 x DDR DIMM Sockets Max. 2GB unbuffered PC2100 /PC1600 DDR DRAM". Will I be able to run my 2700 memory at ddr 400 on this board?

Thanks for all the help guys. Thugsrook: I was looking on newegg and pricewatch for the p4b533-v and didn't see it, the closest thing was the p4b533-vm which is pretty crappy (only 3 pci slots and 2 ddr slots). I also saw a board called the p4b533 with no letter after it, it cost $145 but the...

Is that because the fsb will be higher in a 1.6 going 2.4 as opposed to a 1.8 going 2.4? Now I am not saying I don't want to go over 2.4....If i can get to 2.4 no problem then I will go higher. So if I wanted to get up to around 2.6+ would the 1.8 or 1.6 be a better choice?

btw I am wanting to be able to o/c to around 2.4 ghz without much stress on the cpu.....this is why I am leaning towards the 1.8a instead of the 1.6a ...so don't suggest that i get the 1.6 just because it is cheaper.

I am ordering this stuff from newegg and am planning on ocing this system....do you guys think I should order something diffrent? Give me your opinion. ASUS P4S533 Motherboard- $107 Intel Pentium4 1.8A GHz - $165 ANTEC Workstation Tower Model SX840 /w Antec Original P4 400 watt Power Supply -...

I forgot to mention I have used the 28.32 and the 23.11 drivers and neither of them made a diffrence.

Hey I am having problems running UT and other d3d games like deus ex in Winxp. When I start one of the games up the screen turns black and the game hangs. It never even gets to the menu. It will work if I use win98 but I don't have it installed right now. I have tried using the winxp...

Why do so many people think these are bad drives? It seems like I am seeing the same pattern for people the drive fails for. It is never one drive that fails they always have like for or five ibm's fail on them. Donsn't anyone think this is a little odd, there is no way they are that unlucky...

Hi, I just ordered a new Ibm Deskstar 60gb 60gxp. My mobo has 2 ide channels. I have a Dvd Drive, Tdk Cdwriter, and my old hd. I currently have the two cd drives on one channel and my old Hd the other. Having the two cd drives on 1 channel has caused slight problems when copying disc to disc...

I just bought a Xtasy Geforce3 ti200 from best buy and I have a few questions about how you guys are overclocking them. Are you using extra cooling for the core? Are you using extra cooling for the mem? How high should I oc the core without extra cooling? thx.
