Can I know what's the difference between SiS & i845/D/E/G/GE/GL/PE and more... (can't list out all :P) chipset? Frankly speaking, which is better? Also, seems like all Intel P4 chips states that it has 533MHz FSB. Can i know what's FSB? Does it mean the higher the better? Also, i'm gonna get...

Hi, I've got to "force" close it because, if I leave it on while trying to use Dreamweaver, it'll hang my whole system. Also, I'll not be able to (CTRL+ALT+DEL) or do anything or so other than pressing the reset buttom at my CPU...

Hi all, I'm on Win98 SE2. I've got Norton Internet Security 2002 installed on my system. However, when I forced "shutdown" the program (by CTRL+ALT+DEL), I'm unable to view any website when I dial-in to my ISP. Btw, I'm using dialup :) It's says DNS error etc. Hence, I have to load the program...

Ah, okie, I get what you mean. Thanks John :)

Hi all, I've come across this term when browsing and look at mobo's model. Can I know what RAID refers to? I've 2 mobo in mind which I might consider buying. However, I have no idea which is more recommended. They are: ASUStek A7V333 (VIA KT333CE) ATA-100/USB2.0/6ch Audio & ASUStek A7V333-ER...

I don't think the OS affects overclocking. However, in terms of stability, Windows XP does offer much stability since it's based on Windows 2000/NT architecture, which means longer uptime and stability. Still, overclocking depends on your system setup (physical setup). Nothing much to do with OS...

Well, i was aiming at the 2000+ (1.67Mhz bundle) and the asus 333 mobo. Pretty good deal. Well, as suggested by Necrolezbeast, his configuration will be a wonderful system.. just that, it overshot by budget :P RAM price seems to rise recently... just hoping it'll drop soon :)

In response to bgeh: Yes. It's Singapore dollars. $1 (SIN) abt RM2.07. Well, i've checked out hardwarezone and the prices there stated bundle... so, it'll be kinda tough to get best bargain right at this moment. I suppose the prices of mobo and chipset will drop at of this year :) Cerb: Is it...

Ahh, sorry for multiple replies :) Didn't know my reply will be right at the bottom instead of branching out from where I've chose to reply. Well, frankly speaking, I don't intend to overclock and I've never tried overclocking. I don't dare to take risk :P Next, I heard that mobo with (SIS)...

So, it means that I don't need to fork out additional money to get a cooler? I've friends whom are using Athlon XP with some cooler to reduce the heat produced from the chipset. So, you are suggesting it'll run just perfectly fine with default configurations? :) Btw, does Athlon XP has 256/512K...

Hi all, I need some suggestion on what kind of processor should I use. I'm a home user and my computer is mainly used for school-releated work, graphics, animation, webdesign etc. I do play computer games like flight simulator etc. Hence, I like to know if Pentium 4 is more suitable for my case...
