I've always used hibernation for the supposed power saving benefits. I just tried suspend and it turns out that that doesn't work. Suspend will turn off the computer with the power light blinking like it should, but when you turn it on, it takes about 20 sec to think then resets and fully...

Hey all, Looking for some help her. I have an ASUS A8R-MVP motherboard with a x64 4000+ I can get some great overclocks and am stable at 2.9gHz. One problem, I have noticed that when the computer resumes from hibernation the overclock is lost. If I manual overclock it, it either drops to...

I recently purchaced a gig (2x512) of Corsair XMS ram for my new build rated at 2-3-3-6. However when look up the ram info in my asus A8R-MVP bios the timings are at 3-5-5-8 with a 2T timing instead of 1T. When I attempt to change these manually the computer boots, runs for a while then...

Yup, I have ATI CCC 5.13 on my WinXP64.

Just looked at my girlfriend's stock hp with the ATI CCC and the ATI 9600xl in that reads at 37C and 40 under load. Definately not room temp. I have 5 fans, two (80mm) which suck air from front and shoot straight at vid card. I think temps for motherboard and CPU are good, do those seem...

Was wondering if the temp readout is accurate, I am using ATI catalyst control center for my temp readout. Is this what everyone else uses?

My new system has plunty of fans and really runs cool except the graphics card. My processor runs at 44C at load and motherboard at 34C. My ATI x1800xl aiw runs at 64C idle and 81-83C on large load. Is this normal??? I have older cards and they never run this hot, is this just the way...

I got the ATI X1800XL AIW for christmas and to my dismay, itcomes without 4 to 6 pin pcie power cord adapter. Has anyone else noticed this??? The manual states that some ATI X1800XL AIW require the adapter, but those will have it included. From what I can gather they all require it. I am a...

Can't be the stadoffs, at least as far as I could imagine, because it went up to the post where it noticed no graphics card the first couple of times (before getting the 4 to 6 pin adapter).

Jumper position is in correct position as it has not been changed since original install (only thing I did not disconnect). My power supply is a aspire 500W power supply with dual 12v rails.

[Problem Description] Upon purchase I assembled my pc and attempted to start it. It did not post but beeped once over and over. I finally narrowed the problem down to an unprovided 12v power adapter for my video card. After instaling the adapter, there was no power to system. Removed adapter...
