Thinking about upgrading to Vista. Here are my specs: AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Asus M2NPV-MX Motherboard 2.00GB DDR2 533MHz Kingston RAM Radeon x1950 Pro 512MB 160 Gig Sata | 160 Gig IDE SoundMAX HD Audio Windows XP Reckon it's worth making the jump? I've been told I might need to...

Hello I am about to buy some new RAM and I'm getting really confused on whether it will work on my computer or not. I am using an ASUS M2NPV-MX motherboard and my current ram is 2.00GB DDR2 533MHz Kingston RAM. I found a good deal on OCZ PC2-6400 Dual Channel DDR2 800MHz 2GB RAM PC Memory...

You've tried reinstalling the OS and it still happens? Do you get an error log? It usually generates when wow crashes which gives vital information. Oh and not sure if you've already tried this but run repair.exe in the WoW directory.

Thanks I managed to flash and update in Windows and its coming up in System properties now :D Thanks for all the help!

I have a program which came with my motherboard called AsusUpdate.. it updates the bios from windows which I've heard is not recommended but is it actually all that risky?

Hi guys Yes I'm pretty sure I need to update my bios its 2 years old. However I am having some trouble doing it. I have downloaded the bios update .bin file from the ASUS website, however when I run EZ Flash from my bios it won't detect the file on either the hard drive or the CD I put it...

Hello I've just successfully installed my new AMD 64 X2 6000+ processor, upgraded from single core. However I have a feeling it isn't properly configured yet - it shows in system properties "AMD Processor model unknown". Do I need to install some kind of drivers or anything? Regards

Ok sounds pretty straightforward. I am coming from a single core so what are these dual core optimizers and where can I get them from? cheers

Hello! A-grade noob here, I am about to purchase AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ AM2 3.0GHz to install onto my ASUS M2NPV-MX Motherboard. I've never done anything like this before, only slotted in PCI cards and such. I'm not a complete moron, I know how to handle the components with care and...

Ok I've taken the label off the PSU and got it here so I can read it properly. Here is the info: Super Silent AZ cool ATX-500 JSP 500W AC Input: 230V ~ .5A,50Hz Colour DC Max Output Orange +3.3VDC 30A Red +5VDC 32A White -5V 0.5A Yellow +12VDC 36A Blue -12VDC 0.8A...

I just opened up my PC and I think my PSU is better than I thought. It is an EZ Cool 500w. Does this make things better or worse...? ;)

Hello I wish to upgrade my CPU and I am trying to work out if my PSU will have enough juice for it. It is a 500w unbranded one and I used http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine to calculate my PSU Wattage and it gave me 380w. I thought I'd run it by here to double check if 380w...

Sorry if this question gets asked a lot. I'm considering upgrading to an AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ from an Athlon 64 3200+ and I'm just worried whether the power supply will be enough. I'm using a 500w power supply and I have all the standard components in my pc, the main thing which uses a...

Hmm good thinking! I have already adjusted the bracket on the screen itself to face as far down as possible but perhaps if I wedge something underneath at the back of the stand it could help a bit. Much obliged.
