I seen the resolutions, from what I've noticed, is that most of the options either condense the screen so that some of the display is missing, or the image gets squished. So much for that idea! :) Thanks guys, really appreciate it. PEACE

What about Battlefield 2, I have no clue on how a game is "supported for wide screen"...is it an available resolution in-game? PEACE (and thanks for all the input guys)

I am in the process of looking for LCD monitors. I noticed a large drop in price, by almost 100$, on most 19-23inch LCD monitors. My question is the following: For mostly and mainly gaming, would I best with a regular LCD/DVI/8ms rather than the same, but with the screen being widescreen...

Thanks for all the input. I have some leftovers from someone, and just wanted to use them up, but instead, I am getting coasters. Kind of a waste. Normally, I use -R, I just wanted to use up those that I already had. I will follow-up once I try a couple things out.

Hey all, I've been racking my brain trying to figure out why I can't seem to burn DVD +R discs on my system. I can do RW and -R fine, without fail, but as soon as I try with a +R disc, it fails everytime. I am running a LG dual-layer DVD burner and using the latest version of Nero...

So, I updated my BIOS to revision 1010.001 BETA and the system seems to be running fine, and it shuts down properly...for now. If I have get any issues still, I will return to post. PEACE

Well, I just got done installing the new drivers, and I'm still getting that issue...anyone? Thanks for all the help all!

Alright, thanks again. Yeah, there are two seperate nForce4 driver sets, one for AMD based motherboards and one for Intel based (915p or something like that) I've actually just gotten the "can't shutdown or restart" problem with 6.53 drivers, so I figure it must have something to do with...

Which BIOS revision are you using? The last I had seen on ASUS was the 1008 revision, the next one was still in BETA. 6.67? 6.80? Where do you see those? The last one I see is 6.66, June (or July, can't remember) 15th PEACE (thanks for input)

I just wanted to mention that I am having an issue running the nVidia nForce4 AMD chipset drivers. Version 6.53 works fine, but once I install the 6.66 set, I can't shutdown or restart the computer without pressing the restart button or the shut down button. Here are my specs: ASUS A8N-e...

Thanks for the input. Considering I buy this RAM, how do I go about making certain that my DRAM configurations are set to the RAM settings? Are there any standards I need to follow? I'm very new at this entire DRAM configuration. As is, my RAM, I just put it in, and it works. Why is it...

So, I did some more research and made some changes. On my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum, I made some changes to the DRAM settings in the BIOS configuration to match my settings on the RAM module, so now, in memtest86, I have: 2.5-3-3-7 but I am still getting errors. Once again, OCZ's website says...

Hey all, I'm still overly confused at the entire DRAM configuration methods. I presently have a system that will not properly pass memtest86 (something like 33,000 errors) when running a set of OCZ memory, dual-channel on a K8N Neo2 Platinum. I see the markings on the modules...

Hi to all, I was planning on making a memory upgrade, dual-channel 2gb kit. I want to go with Corsair, as OCZ has been giving me nothing but compatibility issues/troubles (memtest86 errors, etc) I presently have a 1gb dual-channel kit, but with the release and hog of Battlefield 2, I...

Hey all, I've been looking into getting a good SFF system, that would mainly be used for gaming, or bringing downstairs to plug into my DTS 5.1 receiver. Can anyone recommend me a motherboard, preferably 64bit, with all the appropriate hardware? I really liked this SFF look...
