I was at a friend's house the other day and he was messing about on the internet and he was watching some music videos in a small window on his toolbar. He told me how he did it, and it seemed simple. Well, when I got home, I tried it out for myself, but I don't think I can. I know that you...

Problem solved. Thanks for the help. Sarge

I am attempting to format my 160gb Samsung HDD and I already have WinXP installed. How do I go about formatting this drive? I can't seem do get to a DOS prompt where it allows me to do so. A friend of mine told me that his Western Digital HDD has a format program on their website and told me...

I'm having the same problem as geetarman. I have a Westell DSL modem provided from Bellsouth in which I have my service. This modem has worked fine with my laptop for over a year now, but when I connect it to my onboard lan of my desktop, I get nothing what so ever. Now, I'm definitely a...

Well, I can't argue that a router might be a good idea. But, I would like to find out if there is anything wrong that I can fix (without spending more cash).

I've had DSL service with Bellsouth for about 3 years now and have never had any issues. For the past year, I've been gaming online with my Sager 8887 notebook with great speeds and no lag. Well, I just recently put together a new machine and got her all assembled and up and running. I...

Win XP installation is underway! :) Well, this mobo sure is holding up to it's reputation and with me, being the novice builder, I'm sure feeling it's wrath. I feel pretty confident that I can continue on with the rest. Thanks for the help and quick responses mechBgon!

I wasn't using the correct "MakeDisk" exe it seems. I'm currently waiting to see if Windows will continue to install. More to follow....

Here's the paths to the "MakeDisk" exe's that I see... E:\Drivers\VIARAID\6420RAID\DriverDisk E:\Drivers\Promise\378ATA E:\Drivers\Promise\378RAID I just reformatted my floppy disk and I am using the first "MakeDisk" for the 6420 path.

I have read some of the issues with this mobo and I currently only have 1 x 512 ddr stick installed in the center bay. I had problems even getting the machine up and running with all 3 x 512 sticks installed, so that was one hurdle I crossed, but now this is another. As for my BIOS, this is...

The upper SATA1 port.

I am assembling a new machine (specs below) and I'm having problems when installing Win XP. I'm being told... "Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer." I have never used or even seen an SATA hd before this, but I'm pretty sure I'm doing the right thing. I used my...

Problem solved.....

Looks like I'll have to get back with Newegg and tell them I ordered the wrong mobo. Thanks for the help Algere. Sarge
