After reading reviews on here and newegg leaning towards either the ASUS P5B-E or the GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3. As for the 965 MB's the GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 seems to be pretty solid reviews also and the top pick here on anandtech. To others that might be reading this post heres another...

In addition will probably stick with a on-board video card since not planning on gaming (might upgrade later if needed), but will upgrade to a nice sound card later on down the road (as mentioned one use will be for music production).

Thanks for the reply RedStar I looking over all the links. I should have mentioned this is not going to be a gaming system. The main apps that I will be running are Visual Studio.Net, Adobe Photoshop, and some music production apps like Ableton Live. So mainly going to be used for...

Ok, time for that dreaded general question!! I'm in the drafting stages of piecing together plans for a new system & kind of out the loop lately. I have decided on a Intel Core 2 Duo system. What I would really like input / opinions on is a good MB. I'm a bit confused on the cons & pros...

Thanks everyone. I figured out how to take ownership of each folder and that did the job. Thanks....

My HD was having problems and Win XP will no longer boot up. I hooked it up as a slave on another pc and was able to copy files from the partitions and other folders except my old 'Desktop' folder. When I try copying this folder I get an 'Access denied' msg. Sure this is NTFS related. I tried...

Thanks for the reply. I'll take a look at that ASUS. My PC that went out was running the ASUS CUSL2-CB "Black Pearl" MB and it ran really nice up until now. I was a little weary going with a lesser known (at least to me) MB brand. That ASUS seems to have all the same features, with higher...

I'm pretty tech savy but haven't had to upgrade my PC in a couple of years and therefore haven't really paid much attention to the new stuff. My PC finely bit the dust so here I am. I'm curious what you guys think of my selections for my new system. This system will basically be used to...

I will have to check out the Asus A7M266 as well. Thanks for the input, Sean.

I'm thinking about upgrading soon - probably to the AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1 GHz - and curious what you guys think about the Epox 8KTA3 or Abit KT7-RAID (or any other mobo's for that matter). Just wanted to get some opinions and what better place then here.

Im new to the forum so let me apologize in advance if this topic has already been covered to death. Im thinking about going for the Cisco CCNA certification. I plan on doing this on my own without paying the outragous fees for having an instructor read out a book to me. I have came across a...
