    Linux for the noobs

    Thanks for all the input guys, there sure seems to be a heap of good distros out there! By sheer coincidence this months copy of Atomic (a great magazine - see http://www.atomicmpc.com.au/) came with a version of Knoppix that runs from CD (2gb on one cd - amazing!). Guess I'll play with that...

    Linux for the noobs

    Hiya guys, just thought I'd ask your advice - I'm fairly competent with a PCs and XP, but when it comes to Linux I know nothing. I'm about to complete my first pc build and it occured to me that it would probably be easier in the long run if i installed XP and linux from the start. What i'm...

    Asus A8V Deluxe REV 1.2 (overclocking questions)

    Are those bios[es?] still available to download anywhere? Which bios are you running that has the working lock? And more importantly is this older bios stable? Thanks

    My optical mouse doesn't shut off.

    USB is better? How? Surely it's better to use the dedicated ps2 port than take up a potentially more useful usb port?

    Asus A8V Deluxe REV 1.2 (overclocking questions)

    I very much doubt that by the time my next upgrade comes around PC3200 will be a viable option :P I'm thinking about forgetting the overclocking, surely 1 gig of branded ram will still be pretty quick?

    Asus A8V Deluxe REV 1.2 (overclocking questions)

    Because I'm still in the process of getting parts (still need RAM, CPU and grapics card) I haven't fired her up yet. I have had a look at the board however and it's got Rev 1.2 stamped on it near the PCI slots :( I assume this means I've got the dud? I talked to one of the guys at the shop i...

    Asus A8V Deluxe REV 1.2 (overclocking questions)

    Hi all, I'm in the middle of getting parts for my first pc build (see http://forums.anandtech.com/me...7&threadid=1422251 and i went and bought the Asus A8V deluxe wifi board. After doing a little more research it seems that boards prior to Revision 2 don't have a working PCI lock. Well...

    New a64 rig

    Thanks Markfw900, 90nm it is. I see one of your rigs runs a Thermaltake SilentBoost K8? Is it any good? Does it handle the overclocking alright? Dan.

    Thanks man, but just for the record, I'm in Australia (and yeah, i have a pet kangaroo :P). Damn I wish pc parts were as cheap over here as they are in the US

    New a64 rig

    Cheers for that HeroOfPellinor! :thumbsup: $160 for RAM! Sure wish I could get those prices over here in Australia :D That logitech combo certainly looks nice. Though the lack of Numlock/Capslock/Scroll lock LEDs would piss me off. I think you've sold me on the idea though, not that...

    New a64 rig

    Hi all! I'm finally in a position where I can afford to build my own rig, and I'm pretty much going all out! Although I would love to get an athlon board that has SLI i really can't wait any longer (HL2 out next month :0 ), so I've bitten the bullet and started buying :D Here's what I'm...
