[Retired] The LCD Thread

Hello, I'm looking for recommendations on an LCD that I can keep in portrait mode 100% of the time and will look good doing plain old text editing. My budget is somewhere around $500 and I'd prefer a 22"+ monitor. Per my reading, I definitely don't want a TN panel, but it appears that even...

NSIS (Nullsoft Scriptable Install System)

We use it in our project, and while it is certainly cheaper than the pro-tools out there (can't beat free), adding functionality always seems to be a matter of scanning the wiki for plugins of dubious quality, finding one that kind of does what you want, then extending it and fixing up the...

New Ballistix Memory

There's a thread at pcper discussing the Ballstix sticks. Not much on the xtremesystems thread yet, but hopefully that will change. So far, news appears to be (from pcper thread): They will be available in DDR PC3200, DDR2 PC4000 and PC5200. 3200 (DDR-400), CL2-2-2-6 4000 (DDR-500)...

EPOX-8KDA3J - Onboard Gigabit Ethernet Problem

I went to Microcenter last night, and picked up a D-Link DGS-1005D 10/100/1000 switch along with a couple of cat6 cables (one Belkin, one 'QVS'). Upon arriving home, I set the ethernet adapter's settings back to the defaults, and plugged the 8KDA3J as well as my other two boxes into the new...

EPOX-8KDA3J - Onboard Gigabit Ethernet Problem

Wow, that's really weird, and I'm not sure what that means. BTW, I just got an e-mail from EPoX USA that says that their website will be back up later today. Out of curiosity, what type of device are your boards are plugging into? My board is plugged into a Linksys etherfast 10/100 5-port...

EPOX-8KDA3J - Onboard Gigabit Ethernet Problem

Even if you hadn't recovered it, it wouldn't affect anything as long as the address was unique on your local area network -- glad you got it back though. I just booted the system (last test before shipping it off), and yes, the green ethernet light stays on up until the connection is dropped...

EPOX-8KDA3J - Onboard Gigabit Ethernet Problem

Yep. XP Pro SP1. If the RMA'd board doesn't fix the issue, and the best EpoX can come up with is "try replacing the cable", I'll be going with another Nforce3 250 GB mobo manufacturer. Pity, because I've loved my Epox 8RDA+ and it was based on that good experience that I decided to go with...

**UNOFFICIAL** Nforce3 250 Thread.

I purchased a EPOX EP-8KDA3J this week and have been testing it this weekend with a retail A64 2800+. First problem was that it would not allow me to override the frequency of memory that has a PC2700 SPD (some versions of Corsair PC3200C2 memory had PC2700 SPD's due to JEDEC spec not being...
