    Need help with a few system issues. Please take a look.

    Got another stop error last night. The PC seems more stable now but when I booted yesterday it said it had recovered from a serious error, then it was fine, when I went to restart it a little later I got: Bad_Pool_Caller Stop: 0x000000c2 (0x00000007, 0x00000cd4, 0x00000000, 0x85c332f0)...

    Need help with a few system issues. Please take a look.

    Thanks DOSfan, I did go to microsoft's site and could not find a specific match to my stop error. What I did was updated the bios of my motherboard last night and I was able to completely burn a DVD which I usually would not be able to do due to the reboot bug. The stop message I got did...

    Need help with a few system issues. Please take a look.

    Fixed problem number one, got it to overclock to 3.0 again, was just a settings issue. Also updated the bios to rev 1.7 from 1.3. I tried to update my video driver but each time I uninstall it, windows re-installs it. Last random re-boot was before the bios update. I patched windows with...

    HKSturboKID was exactly right. I did what he said formatted the drive and now it shows up in explorer. Thanks. Number 3 is solved. Next will be #2. I will check for the blaster worm files shortly.

    Need help with a few system issues. Please take a look.

    This past weekend I took apart my entire PC, leaving the ram, and heatsink/fan attached to the mobo. I cleaned the dust out, added a blowhole fan in the top and an intake fan in the front. I re-assembled the PC adding in a slave Maxtor 160gb hard drive (see the rest of the system specs in my...

    WALMART DVD Rentals - First 30 Days Free

    One thing to think about is lost DVD's. A friend of mine has netflix we live on long island, no problems getting the DVD's but she's had a few of them get lost in the mail. Netflix didn't charge her for the lost DVD's and they do try to straighten out the situation with the postal service...

    ATI AIW 9700 PRO TV out not available?

    It turned out to be a stupid problem. I have a slightly complicated setup. I'm using an S-Video auto switch which then goes to my receiver, then to the TV. I came accross some help file within the ATI software and it stated that the card may not be seeing the TV. So I made sure I turned...

    ATI AIW 9700 PRO TV out not available?

    Control panel is installed, still no access to the TV display. It shows it there but has a red X over the connection. Same with all the other displays except for the standard one.

    ATI AIW 9700 PRO TV out not available?

    I've got all the latest software installed from the ATI site. Everything seems to be working fine but when I went to turn on my TV out using an S-Video cable. The option to use the TV out is not available under the advanced settings. In fact my only option is to use a standard monitor? Does...

    Need Opinions On New System ABIT IC7-G

    There is no IDE RAID on the board right? I don't have SATA hard drives. I do have two 80GB 8MB cache drives that I paid about $38 each for after rebates. So I figured I'd set up a RAID array using the SATA channels. But you guys really make a good argument for the non G board. It is...

    Need Opinions On New System ABIT IC7-G

    By SATA adapter, I mean the adapter to convert your IDE hard drive to SATA hard drive. I have two drives, the G version of the board includes one adapter, so I'd have to buy a second one in order to use the SATA channels. There is also a power adapter that is needed as well. I think the power...

    Need Opinions On New System ABIT IC7-G

    Great stuff guys keep it coming. I'm now going with a ram change. Think I'm going to stick with the 2.4C chip though. As for the G or non G board I'm not sure, while I can save a ton of money, if the Gigabit LAN won't have any impact, then I guess I probably won't use the extra SATA channels...

    Think there might be something in this thread that might help. Something about the memory settings changing. http://www.asusboards.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=42761

    Need Opinions On New System ABIT IC7-G

    It's one of those, it would be nice to have kind of situations. I'd love to get the IC7-G. I figure it this way: IC7-G $203 + one SATA adapter needed $30 = $233 IC7 = $141 + two SATA adapters needed $60 = $201 + a 10/100 network card $15 = $216 So here we have $17 difference and for that $17...
