    Reset BIOS - Now computer is unstable

    My board was running great at 335Mhz FSB with 1.45vCore for a few weeks, well I decided to try and get a little more out, so I increased it until it wouldn't boot up anymore. I reset the BIOS using the jumper, put in the exact settings I was using previously, and now it is VERY unstable! I even...

    Vista screen flicker w/ Photo Viewer or UAC

    If I'm viewing a photo in Vista photo viewer, when I resize the window it will flicker black while I'm dragging the edge. Is this normal behavior or a video card/driver problem? I'm using a 7600GS w/ 512MB. Similarly, whenever the UAC confirmation window pops up, my entire screen will turn...

    2GB or 4GB of RAM for Vista?

    I'm finally putting together my first C2D build with Vista. For the past few years or so I've been sticking with just two sticks of RAM because it was always better to have fewer sticks. I also like to stick with lower latency memory. Now that Vista is out, I'm hearing rumors that 4GB is the...

    Good microATX board?

    The primary features I require are: mATX, Gigabit ethernet, and digital audio out. There are several Intel boards which meet these specs, but I can't find a single AMD board!! What gives?! Oh, I would prefer socket 939. If I can't find a board soon I guess I will have to go the Intel...

    nForce3 Neo2 vs nForce4 Neo4

    Hey guys, right now I have a Neo2, which is the nForce3-250 of course. I was wondering if it's worth it for me to upgrade by board to the Neo4-F. I would never use SLI, so that is not a reason to upgrade to me.

    Extremely poor RAID0 performance :-(

    Just built a new system. Put in dual 36GB Raptors SATA. RAID0 config on my Neo2 K8N Platinum. In SiSoft Sandra, I'm only seeing 70MB/s! Also on HDtach, the graph is very spikey, fluctuating violently from ~110MB/S down to 40MB/S. I left the stripe size default, which if I recall correctly...

    Boot logger for XP?

    XP hangs at the blue "welcome" screen every time I load for about 30 seconds. It just started doing this the other day. I'm sure it's related to a driver, but I can't figure out which one (Installed dozens of programs, this is a new system). I remember, a long time ago, using a program which...

    Black screen until windows starts w/ DVI?

    I got a new 9600XT vid card and now, when I boot up, all I get is a black screen on my LCD until Windows starts, then the image appears fine. If I plug a CRT in to the DSUB output on the video card, it will show the boot screen fine. What am I doing wrong here?
