I have problems installing the 2
1st the zalman I'm installing it on 939 asrock mb
When I tighten the bolts to the end I can still turn it clockwise and counter clockwise a few mm each way
Otherwise it seems to be sitting firmly on the CPU other wise
Is it normal?
2nd the 800gto...
long story shot : I needed to print out some schematics I have in autocad
I poped them on to a CD and bought them to a printing place
The guy there opens up the files and says: we can?t print this. (he understood they were autocad files)
You need to bring the files in .plt format
So I...
I got a little university fund available after giving some lectures etc...
I can use it to purchase a laptop but I have to get it thru the university
so my choices are some what limited
after comparing a few of them its all boils down to graphics.
The x300 seemed like a good choice but...
The drive functions but it makes a noise like an old worn out record with a needle screeching over it
Is this ?normal? occurrence with some drives or is it about to die?
tnx
My old trusted 20? died, may he rest in peace
I been looking at IIYAMA VISION MASTER PRO514
I?m using the monitor as a TV as well and I don?t have much room for external speakers
So it seems like a good replacement
Also LG N2200P looks nice too
But I really have no clue, as I didn?t buy any...
I ordered a delta 92mm 4800rpm fan and it a 55dB (for sp94)
I have 2 delta 120mm 30dB and I?m fine with them
Will the extra 25dB make a huge difference?
A friend of my decided to upgrade his MB to GA-7N400-L
The spec oh his PC:
GA-7N400-L MB
1000 T-bird (C)
256mb pc2100
Maxtor 60gb
Matrox g400
Generic CD
Windows 2k and 98 installed with out a hitch (clean install)
Now the problems began
If you tried to copy a large file say 150+MB
The...
I don?t really care for upgrade possibilities in this case
But I can?t seem to get any info on the MBs with CPU built in (other than ECS)
Are there other manufacturers with same products?
also along shot but are ther motherboards with every thing on ? (including RAM)
tnx
120mm (.33A) fan in front as an intake
120mm (.33A) fan on the right side of the case directly beneath the CPU as an intake
X2 80mm (.25A) fans at the bottom of the case taking air out
X1 80mm (.25A) at the back taking air out
All fans running of a dedicated PSU
I wanted to turn on a generic 400w PSU with out MB
I connected bridge between power_on and common on the 20pin connector and the PSU turned on
how ever "12v" shows as 10.9v when connected with a 0.25A load it drops to 10.61v
I checked the PSU with a MB and it shows as 12-11.9v
is there...
I need to check HD with only one partition and in 2000 it only shows a report
Not the graphical representation of the HD
( correct me if I?m wrong )
I need to know the position to ?cut? away the damaged part of the HD
(must keep the HD and OS :| )
Well to make a long story short my 2500+ at 2500 was running at 48C idle
I took a gamble and OCed it to 3200 to my surprise the temp reading is now 48/49 idle
I loaded prime95 and ran it for a few hours the load temp went up to 57C
with no errors.
Are temp ?gages? that unreliable?
ordered an Athlon 2500+ but apparently it's out of stock
The supplier is offering a free upgrade to 2600+
Is it a slightly faster 2500+ or is there a catch?
It's my 1'st DDR AMD rig
2500+ CPU
Gigabyte GA-7N400-L MB
2x512 OCZ PC3200 Premier RAM
CoolerMaster Jet 7 cooling
I worked with P4s and RDRAM till today
So any helpful tips are appreciated
Between the 2 MBs which would you recommend?
Gigabyte GA-7N400-L
ABIT NF7 2.0
Is there an actual benefit in buying DDR400+(433,466?.)
with 333fsb Athlon?
Is dual channel absolutely necessary?
How much of a performance hit will there be if I go with one stick?
Will CoolerMaster Jet 7 be...
I have a game on dvd that uses MCI-DVD driver
It requires "vod=xxxxxxxx" in win.ini under [mci extensions]
No matter what I do it wont play the dvd vobs
Is there any way to get it to work ?
Can I use a cable from my floppy to power it?
How hot should the heat sinks on the memory chips be after a few min of operation?
If I want to replace the fan on the GPU
What would you recommend?
P4 went from 256k L2 to 512K L2 and the performance increase for drastic
Why not bump L2 cache again?
I donno much about CPU design so if this question really stupid don?t rain on me too hard :)
I been searching for a cheap 9700 for a while ,I got a nice deal on it and took the plunge with out knowing much about this particular card/manufacturer .
How does it perform compared to original ATI 9700pro?
This is the only non modified 9700 I seen with all the heatsincks
Are they realy...
Is pitting pc1200 in to 533fsb system worth it in terms of performance increase?
How do pc1066 and pc800 compare to DDR in 533fsb systems?
(The only benchmarks I was able to fined is with DDR266 and not dual channel)
There seem to be way to many configurations of the 9500
Pro L shape memory
Non pro L shape memory
Pro Not L shape memory
Non pro Not L shape memory
Sapphire
ATI
Red PCB
Black PCB
Green PCB
Basically one big pain in the ?
Which ones can be run in 9700 mode and which ones can't ?
