thanks for the responses. i'm not sure if i understand what you're saying MDE are you saying this configuration is in fact possible, if i make the SLI-related motherboard changes?

so MSI replied saying, i think, that the board is SLI only, and doesn't support two pci-e card not in SLI. Is that true?

My primary pci-e slot has an ATI RadeonX800XL in it, running two monitors. I was under the impression you could have to pci-e cards not in SLI, so I got a MSI NX6200TC card to run a third monitor. Installed the drivers but the monitor only displays the infamous "Cannot Display This Video Mode"...

also, not sure why this is, but StatBar shows like 3-7 kB/s download at any given time

I RMAd my Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe board after my second problem with the chipset fan. They sent a new one. The system works exactly as it used to . . . except for some reason Windows says the Marvell Yukon Gigabit ethernet controller has no driver. I've tried autoninstalling and manually installing...

I just built a new computer on a relatively old motherboard (an Asus A8V). I planned to install XP Pro on one of two Western Digital 250 GB Sata Retail disks I bought. At first the disks wouldn't even pass POST, but then I set the jumper to 5-6 to lock it at 150 MB/s like the Asus support...

Taking out the board unfortunately did not work. I just need some way of logging into windows so I can load the drivers . . . anyone?

Ok, here we go: All my USB ports simultaenously died, including the expansion ones on the board (A8n-SLI Deluxe, Asus). The most I can get is for a mouse or keyboard to flicker its power light for a second, and then it goes down. The PS/2 keyboard port works fine in BIOS, Knoppix, and Bart...

I used partition magic to extend the partition to the full 148 GB and am now re-imaging the array with Ghost. No "span to end of volume" option was given in Ghost 9.0. Think this will work?

Ghost showed one disk. As for spanning the entire volume, I'm nost sure.

And oh yeah, device manager shows and unkown device, not totally sure if it's related though.

Here's what I did: I had a regular 74 GB raptor that has been my primary hard drive for a while. I just bought a second. I configured them in BIOS with RAID 0 and then I used Norton Ghost to put on image of the first disk on the new RAID Array. Windows doesn't understand exactly what has...

<Plus you can't just manually configure an IP address. The wireless system simply will not allow it. The address must be configured with DHCP.> mac and countermeasure issues aside, why not? what's the difference between one user receiving an ip through dhcp, and another user typing in the ip...

That's interesting spidey, thanks for your help. Yeah there's a security certificate, one of those standard public key ones for ecrypting the password, that's all. Most of your objections seem to assume a sophisticated system. If it was less secure, and for example, had areas that only one...
