    WINXP BSOD (damn IRQs)

    Well, I think I managed to solve it. Once I turned off automatic restart, I could read what the blue screen was saying (duh). Did some googling, after finding out which exact wireless driver was causing the problem - and I found a beta update to that driver, which seems to have solved the...

    WINXP BSOD (damn IRQs)

    I thought I had the problem licked for awhile, after I fiddled with a few options in Eudora - all was well for about a day, however, as the BSOD again reared its ugly head and defied my attempts at working around it. I have the latest drivers for all my hardware, and software, with the...

So, I think I have 2 options then, tell me if i'm wrong: 1) get 2 bridges, have them set to connect to each other, plug one end into modem, other end into wan port of router. 2) move the wireless router next to the modem, get a bridge and plug it...

    wireless networking problems

    Here was the plan: network together 2 desktops in the same room + a laptop, give them all cable internet access. Sounds simple, get a wireless router to hook up the 2 desktops, get a wireless PCMCIA card for the laptop. It would have been that easy, had Time Warner been able to install a...

    General Question about Wear and Tear if you Overclock

    Since Intel chips have on-die overheat protection, isn't it relatively safe to overclock?? Specifically, I'm recalling the test that Tom's Hardware did where they pulled the heatsink of a running p4 and it automatically throttled down to keep the heat down....

    Quality power supply?

    I was wondering if it was normal for the voltages supplied by the power supply to vary as much as 0.2v? I just bought a generic PS when I upgraded to a P4 system.

    utilities to test overclocking success??

    What programs are you all using to stress test your overclocked CPU/RAM/etc ?? So far, i've seen ppl mention Prime95, for testing the CPU, then bumping up voltages until you get no errors. What about testing memory? pci? agp? I'm itching to get my P4 1.6A up past 2.4 :)

    I just got the Gigabyte 8IRXP mb and a P4 1.6a CPU, and i'm wondering how far I can overclock it. I also have Samsung DDR333 ram, though the board supports up to DDR266. Using the supplied EasyTune III software, I was able to overclock the FSB to 125mhz, thus raising CPU to 2000mhz, PCI to...
