i bet thats it corkyg, it may only work with the stock notepad...when i do it a row of squares appears, lol

thats odd corkyg...every xp machine i have tried it on, it worked that same way my notepad is using Lucida Console 20 pt. currently...i rarely use notepad and can't even remember why its set this way, lol

interesting site, i never really thought it was a something political related but it is just very strange...

oh, i did forget to mention...this only seems to work with Windows XP...it doesn't do it on my vista machine

that is odd...are there any onboard usb ports you can try maybe you can try to update the drivers for the usb card if you don't have the latest ones already

type "bush hid the facts" in notepad (no quotes) and save it...when you close it and open it back up it displays random characters anyone have any ideas why this happens, lol

oh yeah, its like the NOPI stickers, but instead of adding 5 hp it adds 5 mhz

this leads me to a question actually...on my new build i am going to have 2 drives in raid 0 for the performance aspect i've heard the larger the drive the higher the failure rate, how true is this? i'd like to put two 1 TB drives in raid, but if that will have a high failure rate then what...

WOW...thats a great looking board. Thats one thing DFI does really well (amongst others...of course) is the visual aspect of their boards, they always look good IMO.

as soon as the 32nm chips come out and prices drop a bit...i'll be building a new rig then

divx is a video codec...try what robisbell suggested again but right before you reboot, uninstall the sound card from device manager so the computer will detect new hardware upon the reboot try reinstalling the device drivers now and cancel anything that xp trys to install that would be generic

im not sure exactly how the 16x is divided up...my idea on it is if the chipset sees one card, it get 16x, if it sees two cards it divides the bandwidth, crossfired or not...i could be completely wrong, but i think you may only get 8x a card if someone knows for sure, please correct me

thanks for all the info on this guys...he talked to the manager at office depot where he bought it, they are going to just give him a new computer so he is going to just go that route...lol, who wouldn't
