    Help Video trouble

    I didn't think to reinstall new chipset drivers. I'll try that. I did install the latest catalyst drivers. No change. Used the current Nvidia drivers when I tried the Geforce2 card. The warning in device manager for both the radeon9500pro and the geforce2 card was the same. ( This...

    Help Video trouble

    My PC has had a bit of a meltdown. In the last few weeks I got escalating program crashes and blue screens. Finally leading to my PC not being able to boot into windows. Eventually I found I had a bad stick of RAM and pulled it. Now my PC is back running (using it now), but i have a...

    RAM advice for a64-3400+/MSI Neo PLatinum

    I ended up getting some Ballistix PC4000 ram. Newegg had the pc3200 instock, but it was about $20 cheaper to direct order the 4000's from Crucial. I'll try them out this weekend.

    Installing a 160g drive

    I'm thinking about buying a 160g drive for the new system I am building. I have a question about the 24/48bit address problem that limits drive space to 127g. I'll be using a MSI K8N Neo Platinum mobo so I expect it will have the 48 bit adderessing in the bios, and I'll be installing WinXP Pro...

    RAM advice for a64-3400+/MSI Neo PLatinum

    Never heard of Kingmax. I was looking more for advice between the two sticks I listed. The Ballistix are the better of the two but I don't know if they are worth the extra cash.

    RAM advice for a64-3400+/MSI Neo PLatinum

    I need some advice in choosing between some ram. It will used on a MSI K8N Neo Platinum with a A64-3400+ Clawhammer. I'm not a serious overclocker, but I do want some fast ram for possible o/c down the road. So I'll probally be running the system at stock speed. Price is important to me...

    PSU Ground wire

    Oops that was a typo. I ment Case not base. It seemed odd to me to attach a ground to the motherboard stand off screw was odd. I'll just attach the ground to a free spot on the case. Probally like Navid suggested.

    PSU Ground wire

    That's from my PSU's instruction manual. Is it saying to attach the ground wire to a motherboard stand-off screw ? I figured it should attach to the base someplace ?

    What makes a copy of XP Pro legal?

    I think those $80-$100 copies of WinXP Pro are academic upgrade versions. To use them you have to have a previous copy of a MS O/S to upgrade from. Just like the regular WinXP Pro retail upgrade package (~$200). You also have to be a college student to buy it or at least you are supposed to...

    MSI K8N Neo Platinum

    I've read about lots of problems with this board over at the MSI Forums . Course that's to be expected as it's a user-run tech support board. But I've heard just as many people praising it. I'm planning on buying one of these myself for my 3400 clawhammer next week.

    CAS Question Crucial vs Corsair

    I'm trying to compare these two bits of RAM: Crucial Ballistix (BL6464z402) it says it's rated CAS2 and Corsair XMS (3200C2PT) which has CAS 2-3-3-6 T1 What's the differance between the CAS timing on these two ? Which is faster ? I'm guessing they are about the same speed.

    How's the TT Venus 12 for an a64 ?

    Good article. The main reason I decided on the venus12 is it appears easier to install that the thermalright and zalmon. It just clips to the stock front plate no worrying about removing the stock back plate.

    I'm picking out parts for a new system. I've narrowed the Mobo either Asus's K8N-E or MSI's K8N Neo Plat. I'm I won't be OCing my system, but I want a good heatsink as I live in Mississippi and it's HOT here. I think I'm going to go with the Thermal Take Venus12. It looks like a good HS...

    Bad PSU ???

    I'm running the latest non-beta bios for my board and current 4in1 drivers. I've read the older 4in1's are better for my mobo (4in1 v4.43), as they are optimized for winMe and older hardware. But i never really noticed the difference so i just use the current hyperion ones. I guess i'll...

    Bad PSU ???

    Those two articles are interesting and maybe the cause of my problems. My board does use a 686b southbridge and I am using two hard drives (Primary: 80g Master/60g Slace and Secondary: DVD Drive). But he also says he tested for erros using a board with the same chipset(amd761) as mine, but...

    Asus A7M266 processor upgrade ???

    Installing Catalyst drivers for 9500pro on WinME

    Thanks for the fast reply. Having to hit an "advanced" button to get to a second menu to install the drivers seemed weird. Guess that's what i get for using a O/S from the last century.

    Installing Catalyst drivers for 9500pro on WinME

    I just installed the 4.3 catalyst drivers for winME (driver #4.14.01.9138) for my 9500pro. Let me know if i installed these correctly, cause the install was a bit woggy. I followed the instructions on ati's download page, first removing the ATI control panel then the drivers using add/remove...

    Athlon1400 vs Athlon2800+, how much of a boost ?

    Thanks for the replies guys. I really guess I was interested in what type of increase i'd see in games. After I posted this thread I found a cool benchmark article over at Tom's Hardware, that compared CPU's from Pentiums100's to Athlons to P4/3.06's...

    Radeon9500p no card ID screen when powering up

    Radeon9500p no card ID screen when powering up

    OK in the past when I powered up my PC a quick screen showing the model of my video card would appear, then the PC goes to memory test, bios, and finally windows will boot. Now that I am running a Radeon 9500pro I've noticed there is not quick card ID screen. When I first boot up I just get a...

    9500p/9600p vs Asus A7M266 mobo... any known conflicts ?

    I'd like to upgrade my Geforce3 card to a newer DX9 card, ideally a radeon 9500pro. My motherboard (asus a7m266) has a 4x AGP-pro slot so should be able to run a 9500pro. I also have a 430w PSU as I've heard the 9500pro is quite a power hog. So really I'm just wondering if anyone has heard...

    Replacing a fan ?

    Thanks for the suggestion on adding a passive heat sink. Infact I believe ASUS replaced the 40mm fan on the a7m266 boards with a heatsink on later board revisions. Drove out to 3 PC stores in my area today. Not one had a 40mm fan with the small power connecter. :frown:

    Video upgrade for a PIII-800

    I'm looking to replace a Geforce2 GTS card on a friend's dell P3-800 system. I thought a geforce FX5200 card would be nice (under $100). I'm concerned about the PIII-800 processer being a speed bottle neck for a good video card. Would maybe a Geforce4 card be a better choice ?
