    Post Your Battlefield 2 Demo Video Settings

    1680x1050 High No AA (not supported in widescreen) A64 3700 X800XT PE Hey, you guys know that when set in widescreen, AA doesn't work, right? Set it to 6X or 0X, and go in the game and watch framerates and take a good look at jaggies. No difference. Battlefield Vietnam is the same...

    So who likes a good challenge? Step inside

    Thanks for that one, I forgot about Dr. Watson. However, the last thing dated in there is from 2/21/05. I think where I'll go from here is run it for at least a month and see if I have anymore reboots. I actually went into the bios and set the ram voltage at 2.6V from the "auto" setting...

    Got it, thanks. I was hoping to find what exactly was calling it, but shutting that one down will work ;)

    Where is this "ding" coming from?

    I just did a fresh install of XP and SP2. When I open a web browser window (IE), i'll hear the windows sound "Windows XP Ding.wav". I have disabled pop up blocker, turned off it's audible sound, and shut down the google pop up blocker. It's none of these things causing this ding. Is there a...

    BIG TROUBLE! Please help ASAP!!!!! I'm Begging!

    It's just a basic NTFS disk....my backup just consisted of copying files on that disk, no official way of backing up. I have done this countless times before, but never with a disk this size..usually 40gb disks or such and never had an issue before. Could this be a size issue? Am I totally...

    BIG TROUBLE! Please help ASAP!!!!! I'm Begging!

    I've never encountered this issue before. I just converted from RAID 0 to RAID 1. I backed up all my data on a 200GB maxtor, I was running WinXP SP1. On a fresh install, it says my maxtor drive is "unreadable". I can convert it to a basic disk, but will lose all my data! I can't lose it, I...

    What to use to monitor case temp?

    Thanks. That looks nice, but appears to be overkill for what I need. I just want one temp sensor.

    What to use to monitor case temp?

    Can someone point me in the direction of something to monitor case temps? I have an Antec Sonata and am looking for something to possibly mount in the 5.25 drive bay, preferrably black. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    *** Official ASUS K8V/DELUXE (K8T800) Thread ***

    Does anyone know where the mobo temp sensor is on this thing? My mobo reports temps equal to or higher than my CPU, and my CPU hovers around 34C. Mobo is usually around 35C. I don't think this is any indication of my case temp, because the side panels of my case are cold to the touch. My...
