    win 2k won't power off monitor

    ahm, under display then "screen saver" then "power" I can set the monitor to turn off after a certain amount of time. Does anyone else see this? If so, does it work for you?

    o/c endless story. what am I doing wrong?

    Swiftech 370-oa. Supposed to have a Papst fan, but this fan is noisy. Temps no higher than 41C. I presume that bios settings were in default b/c I hadn't played with any of them other than FSB. How do you lower timing for memory?

    I have an Epox 8k7a+ mobo, and I running w2k. In control panel under display I set monitor to power off in 15 min (or 5 or 10) but it won't turn off. This method works fine using 98se on another PC. How can I get the monitor to power off in w2k?

    Epox-8k7a+ W2k can't find drivers for sound

    Thanks guys. The DL'd driver from the site turns out to be the same as the one on the CD that came with the mobo. I installed that one and the sound works perfectly.

    Epox-8k7a+ W2k can't find drivers for sound

    So, heffe734, sounds like you're familiar with this issue. can I just install the driver from the Via CD (that came with the mobo) or CD-R of the DL'd driver? The PC in question doesn't have an internet connection.

    Epox-8k7a+ W2k can't find drivers for sound

    yeah, onboard sound. Thanks. I'm Dl'ing now and I'm gonna see what happens. On a different note, my ATI Radeon installation says that I lack DMA access to my HD and DVD and CD. What is DMA?

    Heres why most of the motherboard you buy FAILS or WONT work well

    A trick question, heh heh. Taiwan is actually Taiwan R.O.C. (Republic of China).

    Floppy Disk Fail (40) -- What gives?

    I'm using an Epox EK7A+ with a two drive RAID0 configuration. :) I have booted with two different floppy drives and with no drive, and I get the message Floppy Disk Fail (40). I can't load w2k b/c it requires that I load drivers from Drive A. Drive A allows me to read the directory sometimes...

    Any suggestions on a vid capture card?

    I wish I were more knowledgeable about the 200. I've seen results from the 500, so I know it's good. I'm waiting to chat with an owner that I know (on the 'net) to get more details. The 200 seems costly enough to be good ;), but I haven't read or seen much about it.

    Any suggestions on a vid capture card?

    The Radeon All-in-Wonder got good reviews from PC World. Is there a cheaper alternative that works almost as well? I thought about Hauppauge wintv pv because it has a hardware mpeg2 decoder -- but the recording function of this card does not work on Windows 2000 with the currently released...
