Specs:
AMD ThunderBird 1200@1333(10*133), Abit KT7A-Raid(ww bios), 256 mb NEC(133@cas3), Geforce DDR 32mb(not OC), Dual IBM Deskstar 7200 rpm@ATA100(Raid-0), Alpha pal6035(Sunon 23 cfm), Win2k Pro

Nr1) Why is that in win2k when i´m moving/copying large files(2-3gb+) that it reposrts like 1-2 min remaining an when that finishes the blue bar starts over and now that reports 120234883498 minutes or something like that and it changes to some other ununderstandlable number every sec? This also happens to my firends

Nr2) Why does my computer freeze when it tries to boot win2k after i install some other bios than ww? (kt7a-raid)? I have acpi disabled in win2k(use standard computer)

Nr3) This one is actualy for a friend, he just reinstalled win2k and in every setup program he tries to run, it just exits when it is finished extracting it(you know.. you double click setup.exe and then there is a blue bar that says that it´s extracting the setup files).. this happens to _all_ setup programs that have simular interface like razer installer, photoshop.. you know.. the popular one.. he has a celemine crap :)

Nr4) Is it possible to mod a Fong Kai case? They are plastic and aluminum.. right? (fk-320 to be presice)

Nr5) How powerful and quiet is the psu in Fk-320? big enough for tbird 1200@1333? porlly 1400+ when i get propper cooling? this fortron source 350w IS DRIVING ME NUTS :D

There is an issue with the VIA 686b southbridge chip that messes up transfer of file larger the 100 MB from the same IDE channel with two drives. A fix is in the works.
