    Dlink Wireless PC Card on nx9010

    Having a weird problem. Got a friend who has an old HP compaq nx9010 that has a weird problem. He bought and installed a D-Link DWL-G650 PC card on it, which works fine. Only problem is, every time you boot the laptop, the system doesn't detect the card. You have to unplug and re-plug it before...

    Low bench scores :(

    So then it's my CPU huh? I guess I just didn't want to believe it. Looks like I'd better start thinking about an e6400... or should I just wait for Agena? Nah, that's too long to wait. @Matt2 - what's your system spec like? My '06 scores are as follows: 3DMark Score 4323 3DMarks SM2.0...

    Low bench scores :(

    Ok, so I hooked up a pcie sapphire x1950xt for my rigg to extend it's life a little before I do a complete system overhaul. The rest of my system is as my sig says. Only that my CPU oc is no longer stable (Im guessing it's coz of the gpu's higher power requirements) so I'm running the CPU and...

    New Duke Nukem 4ever Screenie

    They claim the actually have a statement from 3DRealms that says it's a genuine in-game screenie. Plus it's from a 3Drealms job advert http://jobs.gamasutra.com/jobseekerx/viewjobrss.asp?cjid=8914&accountno=95 But it does look like an action figure, lol. All plasticky and stuff.

    That's correct, just got mine and there's a sticker on the bios chip that indicates the bios version (1.20), but it DID NOT have a back plate.

    Booting issue with ASRock939Dual-SATA2

    Yes Jack, you need to ensure that extra 4 pin is connected. Look through the power leads coming out of your PSU (4-pin jack with 2 black and 2 yellow). This is separate from the 4 pins that add to the 20 to make a 24 pin jack. Your PC wont post until this is plugged-in. As for me, solved my...

    Is my neo2 Plat dead?

    thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll give it one more try before i go for a dfi nf4 ultra + sapphire GTO2. I also get that "cannot have options rom" message. flashed from dos on a mem stick. Sometimes i can boot up long enough to reflash, so I'll try going back to bios 1.5 and see if it helps.

    Is my neo2 Plat dead?

    Ok. It all started when I flashed my bios to version 1B (TCCD Mod). The flash was succesful, but when I rebooted the system it would not post. So I reset the bios using the bios jumper and rebooted, which let to a normal boot and everything was fine. Then a couple of days ago, my USB ports stop...

    X800XT oc'ing question

    I know this is a tad outdated, but I could use some input here. Been trying to OC my Sapphire X800XT (w/ ATI Tool) but I can hardly get up to 520/540 without artifacts. It's cooled with an AC silencer 4, load temps get to about 61C, so I doubt it's a temperature problem. I've read on a couple of...

    Neo2 Platinum Bios problem, v1.A

    Hi guys, wondering if anyone else is having this problem. I recently flashed my board's bios to version 1.A. When I did this, the usb contoller defaulted to v1.1 and the option to change it to v1.1+v2.0 didn't appear in bios, it has been removed. Plus, I flashed it from a flash disk (dont use a...

    Is my power supply good enough???

    If you dont have the $100+ dollars to get a high-end/high-quality PSU, you could get this Rosewill 500W PSU. It's got a 34A 12V+ rail and is pretty stable. Have had no problems with my setup so far. It's a bit on the noisy side with the fans running at max, but you can throttle them down with...

    I think my hard drive is dead, is a recovery possible?

    Download BartPE, burn it on a CD, boot with it and recover your files. It's a miniture version of windows that runs off the CD, so you can access your slave hdd without booting into the OS installation on your primary hdd.
