First one an 815EP mobo, it absolutely rocks, rock solid, highly overclockable, still running after 2 years in my brother's computer, MSI is the absolute best !!! Second one an 865PE Neo mobo, a piece of crap !!! (still highly overclockable) ... I'll never buy MSI again ... My cousin has a...

I do have a TV tuner ... damn

Same problem here, same mobo (MSI Neo2 865PE), same CPU (2.6C), only that I get randoms hangs, posted here before, and I remember people told me that the problem was the mobo (something is wrong with MSI 865 mobos), it undervolts or something like that, I really don't know, have not changed my...

Damn with the pairs !!!! So, let's change the question, I am not going to change this computer for quite a while (well, maybe the sound card, but it really doesn't matter), and when the time comes, I want AMD 128 / nforce 550 / DDR4 (whatever it is at the time), etc. ... so should I get 2 x...

Thanks man ... However, I really don't mind if I don't have dual channel (for a while, until I can get another 256MB dimm), I just want to know if it is possible to have 2 dimms in one channel and 1 in the other, and have no problems at all ... I certainly prefer to have the 512MB single...

OK, so I have an MSI 865PE mobo, and two dimms of kingston ddr400, each one of 128MB, one on the "green channel" and one on the "orange channel", so it is 256MB set up as dual channel. Problem is, I want to add 256MB more of RAM (only 256MB, no money for anything more), but i want to do it with...

So, I have a Intelimouse Optical 1.1A USB, this thing is plugged to my ps/2 port using a usb to ps2 adapter, why ????, well if i plug it directly to usb, then I have no wheel ?!?!?!?!!??!? ... sometimes also the wheel just stops working ... don't get me wrong it is not that it stops working...

I did a little research and it seems that MSI's 865 boards have some issues (slow system, no booting, lock ups, reboots, all of thsi has happened to me), the bad thing is that here in Peru we don't have RMA, so I will have to figure other things to do, probably I'll get myself a new mobo, which...

bought a 80gb 72000rpm IDE seagate (barracuda IV), but still the same crap, although my boot problems have seen to be gone (still a couple of times it freezes at the beggiing), now the computer suddenly freezes for about 1 minute then everything goes back to normal (this usually happens when...

ran memtest all night, like 43 passes and 0 errors, so I guess it is the drive, I'll buy myself a seagate today and then I told you .. a couple of things I forgot to mention, sometimes when I try to open a directory the computer just stops there, and after a while it comes back to life...
