My Harddrive supposedly failed on me a while back and it ended up being nothing but a cable problem because I checked the connections and changed the cable and then it worked fine. Well the first cable that was on it(the one that it supposedly "failed" on) had only been on it since I first built...
I'm buying an Audigy 2 tomorrow and I was wondering about installing it:
I know I have to disable the Onboard Audio in the BIOs and is that it?
What about SoundMAX that starts with Windows?
What else do I have to do?
DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT GET THE 9200SE. I had it in my old system and it sucked. The best PCI card u can get is a Radeon 9100. They're kinda rare but its worth the effort to find one. If u cant find a 9100 then go for the FX5200. make sure u get thr 128bit version though instead of the 64bit.
My PC only got 20,350 in it and one of the computers in my magazine got 23K with:
3.8EE OCed
1024MB Highspeed RAM
9800XT OCed
Well I know its not computer problems because my scores are normal in:
Aquamark3
Final Fantasy XI Bench
3DMark03
3DMark05
PCMark04
is it because its...
I want some drivers that are quite reliable but are mainly for speed. I have the 61.77s now and I've heard these are mainly for stability and non-problematic.
no, for my graphics properties I have the little slider under the "Direct3D" tab set all the way to the peformance side. And I don't think going from 4.6's - 4.9's is gonna give me 700 points. I did try it with the 4.8s one time and it was only like a 20 point difference.
I'm wondering if something is wrong because I have:
A64 3200+
Asus K8V SE Deluxe
1GB Corsair PC3200 Value RAM
9600 Pro 256MB
everything is at stock, I'm running the 4.6 catalysts, newest chipset drivers and 2nd to newest BIOS version and my score:
2779 :| whats wrong? I've seemed to...
1. I have the speakers up all the way and the sound is still very quiet. I have some Polk Audio 2 channel speakers that came with my old HP Pavilion.
2. My mouse keeps lagging even when I'm not playing games. It'll move some then kinda mover REALLY slow then sometimes stop for a few seconds...
My case has 2 wires comming from the front. 1 is labeled "Power SW" and the ither is "Reset SW" well I know where the reset cord goes but I don't know where the Power one goes. The reset cord plugs into the little ports on the bottom right corner of the board. And it has a port for "Power LED"...
My case has 2 thermal controlled fans in it but I want um to run at full speed all the time. The fans have plugs for hooking up to a PSU but I thought thermals didnt run off the PSU.
but my case has like 6 fans and none of them have the same plug as the chassis fan plug has. Oh yeh and my PSU has 2 fans but no plugs that'll fit the PWR_FAN connecotr on the mobo. Does that mean they wont run?
My motherboard has plugs for a "PWR_FAN" and a "CHA_FAN" meaning power fan and chassis fan. Well whats the difference? I thought all case fans plugged into the PSU? and btw, none of the fans I have have the right plug to fit those "PWR_FAN" and "CHA_FAN" plugs.
I want a motherboard with the nForce3 250GB chip and I don't want the EPoX, people are having all sorts of problems with the MSI K8N Neo, so the only thing left that looks intersting 2 me is the Asus. So how is it?
My plans are set:
Pentium 4C 3.2GHz
AOpen AX4SPE Max II(this was the highest rated Intel board on motherboards.org & a friend has one with no problems)
Kingston HyperX 1024MB PC3200 RAM 2-3-2-6 1T timings
X800 Pro
WD 200GB HDD
NEC 1.44 floppy
CDRW/DVDRW combo drive
Enermax 460W PSU
Antec...
I'm favoring the 3.2. I know that the A64 is better for gaming but I feel more comfortable with Intel. I've never had an AMD system and I've always just liked Intel. I know that benches show the A64 as fastest but I won't be able to tell a difference. And the 3.2 is definitely not lacking.
Yhe I'm planning on getting the Gigabyte K8NS Pro.The only downsides is there is no Hardware Firewall.
The mobos that are currently out no with the K8T800 chipset don't overclock at all.No AGP/PIC locks.
ok I knew someone was gonna say this> *sighs*
a 9200SE 128MB and 9100 128MB
Card 1=9200SE
Card 2=9100
*curls up in a ball and waits for the hits to come*
