CAFlynn: <<In the ASUS manual, it clearly states that there is an option in the BIOS to disable it.>> Check your board's manual to see if there is a way to disable the sound using on-board jumpers. I have an ASUS K7M with built on audio - to disable on-board audio, I had to switch the jumpers...

stinkeye: If you want to use the second harddrive as a slave for the purposes for data storage and such, you can back up all important files that are on it and format it, which gives you a nice, clean drive to work with. But if you don't want to format, and just want keep the old drive as-is...

CAFlynn: <<Is there anyway to go back one version of the BIOS? >> Yes there is. If you know the version number of the previous BIOS that your motherboard had before you updated, you can go to this website http://www.amdmb.com/files.php, scroll down until you find your motherboard listed, and...

No problem. I had doubts about this working because you are running Windows 98, while the step provided were for Win2k. But I guess the Display Properties are exactly the same in both OS's. Glad to be of service.

munruss: Primary partions on a harddrive don't have to be used to install other operating systems. True, that if you do want another OS installed, you will need to install it on a primary partion because otherwise it won't be understood correctly by boot managers (NT Loader, LILO), but there...

Microsoft Windows 2000 (no service packs) Does anyone know what the process tp4mon.exe handles under Win2k? It can be killed using Task Manager, so I know it is not a service. It takes up about 900+k of memory, and is usually listed towards the bottom of the processes under Task Manager. A...

SaigonK: I went to the website you linked and looked under Win2k Tweaks, but was unable to find anything relating to my problem. When I did a Power Search, I found a way to disable the "Eject PC" message, but nothing about the "Unplug/Eject." Can you please direct the blind to the right tweak...

Can anyone please hint at where the CMOS battery for a Thinkpad (any Thinkpad) may be located? e.g. On the front of the motherboard (front being under the keyboard) or on the back (back being where RAM, modem go) Thanks in advance.

Microsoft Windows 2000 (no service packs) I have two USB peripherals that I tend to plug and unplug quite often, and ever time I do so, an Unplug/Eject window pops up. I have tried to uncheck the box that says "Show Unplug/Eject on Desktop," or something towards that effect, but everytime I...

brinstar117: When you go into the Resources Tab under your Sound Card Properties in the Device Manager, are you able to edit any settings that have been pre-set by Win2k? Because when there are no conflicts, which is obviously not your case, everything is greyed out in the Resource Tab and...

The harddrive can be damaged from overclocking? Really? Can you go a little bit more into this? I definetley know that RAM can be damaged as well as video, because with the increase in FSB you also increace the RAM bus Mhz and the PCI bus Mhz, but how can a harddrive be affected?

ASUS K7M Rev. 1.04 motherboard. Athlon (classic, slot A) 500 CoolerMaster Athlon Slot A Fan I have overclocked successfully 50 Mhz (just by setting the FSB to 105 rather than 100) without the need for extra cooling or upping the voltage. I was wondering if overclocking in this manner can have...

You know, I was talking to a friend about this and we figured out that the first time all the crashes happened was because of the power supply, but now they are happening because I don't have sufficient cooling. I stopped overclocking for now to see if anything changes and if the crashes will...
