    SN85G4v2 Power Supply = Dead

    Hello All. Two months ago, I had problems turning my computer back on. It seemed as though it had shorted. It would either turn right back off within a second or it would get as far as detecting my array and crash. I gave the computer a few days off and it corrected itself and all has been...

    Loud HD2600pro Fan

    Hello all. I have an HD2600pro. It works well, catalyst control center works well, etc. BUT The fan is obnoxiously loud. CCC does not over any solutions for fan control... and I know ATI Tools does - but if I were to install ATI Tray Tools... would that interfere with CCC's functioning...

    How to setup dual monitor and a HDTV

    I am going to tag along to this thread with a separate question... thats related. I'm looking at buying the 7600gt myself and I currently have a 37 inch LCD HDTV. With my old and now dead 9800xt, the only way to run the TV as a monitor was through VGA... DVI -> HMDI just would not work. The...

    In need of your Wisdom.

    I don't seriously game... and I don't plan to. I would, however, at the very minimum like to maintain the speeds and quality I got with my 9800xt. Also.. of paramount importance if possible is getting my LCD TV to run DVI or perhaps even go DVI to component cables through a transformer...

    In need of your Wisdom.

    Other than the 7600gt... any other recommendations? Models? Any other insight? Can I go no higher to... lets say... the x1300? x1500? Do they really consume more power than the 9800xt did? Keep in mind that the 9800xt ran on a 200w power supply as well even though ATI website recommends 300w...

    In need of your Wisdom.

    I have a Shuttle (in my sig) that HAD a 9800xt in it. The card died the other day and now I am in need of a replacement. My power supply is 250w, though the 9800xt ran well for 3 years and I have heard that the 250 SHOULD be sufficient for most anything (though, clearly, some of you may know...

    So it worked! Now what?

    Even if that were true... have I proven that? The only definitive fact is that CCC does not load, be it through VGA or through DVI. Would that not be more of a driver/software problem than my TV's inherent fault?

    So it worked! Now what?

    I installed a new .NET Framework... and no longer receive that error. HOWEVER, CCC remains stubborn. The latest and greatest: errors with my CLI.Implementation and MOM.Implementation. I went so far as to download the CLI Language (I have no idea what it is, to be honest)... but have no idea what...

    So it worked! Now what?

    So I got a VGA to VGA cable and loaded the computer, installed the new Catalyst Drivers and reloaded the settings. Here are my results: Running on VGA, the highest resolution without overscan I can achieve is 1280x720. It looks good. However, I plugged in my DVI->HDMI cable and the picture...

    So it worked! Now what?

    Slammy - I went to the web site and followed the instructions... and uninstalled the old drivers before installing the new ones. Upon restarting the computer as the instructions state... I no longer get any image at all on the television. What do I do now?

    So it worked! Now what?

    It's not the television. I played with all the formats and the zoom and so on and so forth and it has to do with the settings... Advice?

    Scaling image to fit monitor...

    I connected my 9800xt video card to my 37 inch LCD TV through a DVI->HDMI. The image displays rather well... at 1280x720 resolution. HOWEVER, The picture exceeds the monitor. What can I do, what programs can I download, to scale the image to my display. As it stands... my taskbar isn't...

    Connecting Computer to 37 inch LCD HDTV.

    Hm... it's just a matter of not being able to return the DVI -> HDMI cable if I were to open it. I got it from the Apple store when I was buying an iPod... Any other thoughts? Anyone else? Thank monty and whomever may offer their advice henceforth. Know that it is much appreciated.

    Connecting Computer to 37 inch LCD HDTV.

    Would you happen to have a link to that thread by any chance? The site seems to lack a search function... and the database vast. So let me get this straight: my panels' native resolution of 1366x768 is NON standard? And HDMI will probably not support that.... though it will get close and the...

    Connecting Computer to 37 inch LCD HDTV.

    I have a 37 inch VIZIO LCD HDTV. It has a plethora of connection options.. among them HMDI. According to VIZIO themselves, other sources, and general common sense, HDMI offers the highest picture quality. Logic then dictates that given my 9800xt's DVI out... I should purchase a DVI to HDMI cable...

    Attention: Fan Control

    I have hooked up an ATI Silencer to my 9800xt. Now, as before, the card itself decides how fast the fan should be spinning to accomodate certain temperatures. Is there any way to over ride the card's controls and do it solo? i know this is possible to do to virtually every other fan with...

    yes, Numbers. My questions for you guys, lets see how much you know: My new mobo has 4 pin fan connectors... my fans are 3 pin. Are they compatible? Why 4 pin? What advantages does it offer? If anyonne knows about the Shuttles, i just bought the SN85G4v3 - its an upgrade from the v1 i...

    Can you hear it?

    I know this is stupid and i should know, but i gotta make sure I am looking at a raptor hard drive to buy and i know they are loud an di want a silent pc, but that only matters when i sleep at night... so my question is... if the hard drive isnt actively seeking, is it producing noise?

    CHANGE IT UP!

    I have a Shuttle. The power supply died. Maybe the motherboard as well. So i have to upgrade to a new form of the same computer... and that leaves me with a new motherboard and the same components... Will i lose my data on my hard drive my changing motherboards? What procedure need i...

    Is this the general consensus and fact - new motherboard will NOT cause data loss? Also, in regards to my PSU problems... any other takers?

    PSU problems

    I have a Shuttle. SN85G4v1 to be exact... and now the power supply wont work. Every time i boot the computer... it lights up, but never really begins to power up - it just dies. It COULD be the fan - the psu doesnt work when the fan isnt spinning... although i doubt that is the problem. Does...

    Silent, but deadly

    What of the ATI and VGA silencers... i can mod my case - is it worth it for those products? Namely, the ATI Silencer 3 - seems like thats the one designed for my card - is its silence and performance worth the mod?

    Silent, but deadly

    Thanks for your replies... i do not think i have room for the additional fan - i am working in the confines of a shuttle... is there any other fanless solution? or perhaps a quiet fan solution that isnt large - i dont have room to expand into a pci slot the traiditional way - i have extra room...

    My SN85G4v1 PSU is so loud! If any of you are familiar with the Shuttles, and particularly my model.. please help me out - it is by far the loudest component in my case. It is not silentx because it is v1 i am told... can i buy a new PSU to replace it? A silent one? Can i change the fans? Any of...

    Terminology

    Thanks for the response... The link you have up there isnt working.

    Yea... i dont plan on upgarding until Dual Core becomes the standard and SLI follows suite... so thats that for the mobo... HD wise - in the Bios.. what were you referring to? could you describe that in more detail.... as for fans and silence, i looked at your link and they neglected what i...

    Thanks fellas... ill go ahead and ask here as well - for my 9800xt - what silent solution, preferably fanless, can i use? i will be upgarding to the p180 and have good cooling... i just want silence.
