Alas, it is true -- MBM5 will no longer be supported. Here is the quote directly from the Motherboard Monitor website: "Juli 6th 2004, about 7.5 years later the MBM development comes to a stop Yes you read it right, after thinking about it for several weeks I have decided to stop...

One Maxtor, many years ago. I have continued to use Maxtor drives; none have died since. The death of that drive may have been related to a power supply going bad -- didn't discover that until later when the PSU failed completely. Luckily, the drive gave me about a week's warning, during...

Well, so far as I can tell: 1) There are still two teams, Folding@Home and Genome@Home; 2) I can switch back and forth at will simply by changing the Team Number in my Client, where Team Anandtech under Folding@Home is Team Number 198, Team Anandtech Under Genome@Home is Team Number...

Ah, perhaps I'm being a little hasty and had better get some additional info. Would it be better to sign up for the Folding@Home team or should I transfer from the Genome@Home team to the Folding@Home team? If I were to transfer, I assume what I have accumulated thus far would move with me...

Hmmm. Thanks for the update. Sounds like I should go ahead and sign up for the Folding@Home team as well. I'll do it! Ken

I confess I'm a little confused, so perhaps someone can help me out. My Folding@Home client allows me to select either Folding@Home or Genome@Home, but I'm entered only on the Anandtech Genome@Home team. Have I been doing work that has not been counted? Should I sign up for the Folding@Home...

Haven't really been able to discover what a "raw" partition is, but here is a link that might explain the Win2k filesystem: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnw2kmag00/html/DynamicDisks.asp I have never run Win2k, so I am not familiar with the associated file...

gotsmack, You must have looked on the Crucial website; that's the same info I found there. Can you access the BIOS on your iBook? If you can, it might tell you what your memory is running at. Ken

Don't pat us on our backs yet; your problem is not yet fixed. I don't whether these cards have a reputation for running hot. I run a GeForce2 GTS and have never had a problem, but the GeForce3 and GeForce4 certainly run considerably hotter. This is probably compensated for by larger heatsinks...

Something else to consider -- this could be a shutdown issue. (I thought Microsoft had finally fixed this sort of problem in Win XP, but I discover that they apparently have not.) It may also be related to ACPI. (The K7S5A is definitely ACPI compliant, but sometimes things do go wrong during...

crawford, I think ChampionAtTufshop may have something there with his idea of an overheat problem. I would do exactly as he suggested -- open the case and point a fan at it, taking aim on that video card. I run with my case open and a small outside fan because I'm too lazy at present to...

jliechty, Oh, yeah -- tried it all, including stopping and restarting my client over ten times. Even tried disabling my firewall temporarily, but didn't think that was the problem and it wasn't. However, I'm happy to report that I just restarted my client and have successfully retrieved a...

OK, glad you found it. You may have noticed that there is also a USB 2.0 patch for Win XP if the touchscreen is USB 2.0-capable. I have subscribed to this thread, and would be interested in learning what the ultimate solution is, if you would be so kind as to post when it becomes known...

Since I don't know your system specs, I can't offer much. But, just to be sure all the bases are covered, have you installed the AGP driver for your mobo chipset if such a driver is required? If it is required and has not been installed, it could very likely be the source of your problem...
