    ASUS IPIBL-LA replacement ?

    I have an HP m9000t with a IPIBL-LA. I think it took a surge hit. Press the power button and complete silence. The power supply appears fine (led is lite). The HD was swapped out to another PC and it's fine. So I'm thinking the MB is fried. Any recommendations on just buying another...

    MSI Ti4400/Live - Error: Service Not Started

    I just built a P4B533-V and MSI Ti4400 running Win2k. After installing the MSI Ti4400, I started getting 2 error dialogs after logging in. Both messages read the same ... "Error: Service Not Started". I'm pretty sure that MSI's Live Update 2 is causing the problem. I have all the latest Live...

    Dumb 'Power Supply' Question of the Day

    I picked up a new Antec 880 case w/ True 430 PS. I'm still waiting on the motherboard to arrive, so I was doing prep (installing hd, floppy, etc). Without any HD, floppy plugged into the PS, I plugged it into the wall and turned it on. I expected the PS fans to turn & hear the PS hum. But...

    New Config... Comments welcome!

    I'm in the market for a 2nd setup. The 1st setup is a P3-450, so anything will be an improvement. Nothing in this config will be used in the new one--it's being re-tasked to be a Win2k or Linux server. Just so everyone understands my priorities...I'll list them... 1. Stability 2. Future-proof...
