    CPU's for Skulltrail

    That?s true of some of the server boards but the Skulltrail board has regular FB-DIMM sockets that are located in the same way as a standard RAM socket.

    AMD 45nm slips to second half 2008

    I read the opposite of this somewhere. AMD will be currently working towards taping out at 45nm the initial draft of the silicon and if that design has the bug which it likely does it means that they have to fix it. It?s hard to say how much time they will lose over this.

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    The packaging for the disc seems to have a unique alpha-numeric code on it but I don?t know if it?s a Vista key. It?s in the format xx-xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxx-xxxx

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    I don?t think you?ll get a key otherwise you could use it on any Dell PC which wouldn?t be within the Vista Downgrade license.

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    Thanks Soviet, that?s useful info. Dell phoned me this morning after I emailed them yesterday and told me they didn?t know about the Downgrade. After they?d passed me on to Tech Support I managed to speak with someone that knew what they were talking about and I have 4 copies of XP on order...

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    Thanks, I used to have a backup copy from a Dell Latitude that I owned but I think I binned it once I sold the laptop. I?m sure I?ll get one from Dell once I can get through to the correct department. Thanks, I don?t have a spare one though.

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    No problem, I just couldn?t see how the service tag would help. It?s a Vostro 1500 that I want to downgrade and I bought it directly from Dell.

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    Thanks, that?s just the kind of info I?m after. Did you use a Dell CD from another machine that came pre-installed with XP Pro or did you get a CD from Dell specifically for this purpose?

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    I?m not sure why you say that. The machines come with Vista installed and I will sell them with the original installation, I just want to offer them with the XP downgrade CD for people that require that. I have no intention of touching the OS installation, if they want to do the upgrade they?ll...

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    Thanks for the PDF link that helps clarify things even further. I have an XP Pro full version retail CD so I can use that as the install media. I suppose I can use any valid key to install it and then phone MS when the activation fails. I have 4 or 5 machines that I need to do this with so I...

    Anyone downgraded Vista Business to XP Pro on a Dell for Free?

    Microsoft?s OEM license (http://download.microsoft.com/...1/downgrade_chart.doc) states that you can freely downgrade from Vista Business to XP Pro and still keep the Vista license for future use. I phoned Dell to ask them to send me an XP Pro disc but having being bumped around 3 different...

    *Reference* - Modern PC Power Requirements

    I?m not clear how the fluke was connected to the PC; are the measurements showing the AC power draw from the wall socket? I ask because in most tests looking at PC power consumption the values shown are AC power draw and some people don?t realise that power supplies are rated for DC output...

    Intel Bad Axe taking 15 seconds to display POST screen?

    I have an Intel Bad Axe Version 1 and it seems to take a long time to POST. From pressing the power button it takes 15 seconds to display the POST screen and 31 seconds before the XP screen first appears. Is this normal? The system has a single PCIe VGA card and no USB devices and is running...

    Why overpay for Conroe when performance is the same as AMD?

    With AMD spending a lot of money on building new and updating old FABs, I don?t suppose a prolonged price war and loss of market share will help much. It puts the idea of AMD buying ATI into a different perspective. The worrying thing for AMD is that Intel currently has such a lead in bringing...

    "Debating becoming an organ donor..." I though that was a euphemism for committing suicide! It?s your body, just check the small print on the lease with God and do what you like with it. It?s between you and the big G; and if you don?t believe in God, then you are truly on your own with...

    Average people have no clue about computers

    Dell?s marketing is so ubiquitous that I thought that everyone knew that you can buy a PC for loose change these days. Is your brother blind by chance? Or, is the difference that your brother actually has a life. What would you rather, a cheap PC or a life? On second thoughts don?t answer...

    Do you know a programming language?

    Cobol, Natural, C++, Pascal, Delphi, VB. I?m on talking terms with all of them but only shagged a few and I married Delphi. Hopefully, Borland will release Delphi 64 bit before Delphi bites the dust. Otherwise, I predict a very messy divorce and a mid life crisis with me running around with a...

    The *Official* MSI K8NGM2-FID GeForce 6150 Motherboard Thread

    Has anyone used a Scythe Mine or Ninja Plus with this board? The Ninja Plus looks as if the fan will snag the RAM in slot 1. I'm wondering if the Mine will install in such a way so that the fan exhausts towards the case vent, which is what I want.

    Intel Conroe E6700 vs AMD Athlon 64 FX-62 (AM2)

    There have been too many independent benchmarks of Conroe at this point to dismiss them. If you over-clock an E6300 by 25% it should match an FX-62. That?s an entry level $183 Intel chip matching a $1,000 top of the range AMD part. Of course, AMD will decimate their prices within the two...

    choosing long-zoom camera (P&S)

    I have a Canon S1 IS and have been looking at replacing it with a higher resolution camera. I use 2000/2300 NiMh AAs and have taken over 400 shots in a day and very rarely need to change the batteries on location. I think AAs are a bonus because the batteries and chargers are cheap and can be...

    Woodcrest ? Any DP motherboards announced yet?

    The Woodcrest Xeon pricing has been announced and they seem pretty cheap ($209 - $851); any news of supporting DP motherboards yet and what type of RAM they will use? If they use FB-DIMMs then that?s going to cost a lot I figure.

    Should I buy a SeaSonic Power Supply? And which one?

    Your system looks as if it?s too low power for you to save much money on switching to a more efficient P/S. Many people focus on how efficient the P/S is at higher loads, but if your system is idling a lot then the efficiency under a low load is much more important when calculating cost...

    I'm sure that the Scythe Katama is SoA compatible. It also benefits from a quiet 92mm fan, especially if you undervolt it.

    Friend hasn't reformatted in almost 5 years

    It?s not quite the same thing. If you need to reinstall Windows because you can?t boot into it at all, you are going to loose any DATA that you have on your Windows partition, IF you reformat when applying a fresh install. And in such a situation it is wise to reformat. The moral is, KEEP ALL...

    How do you reduce fan noise?

    Looking at your system spec it seems as if you have a fairly low power PC, so your 550W PS is way more than you need. The main keys to quiet computing are to buy low power & power efficient parts, under-volt where possible and to use the largest fans that your system can support and to...

    Christian and Athiest in the same house!

    If it was my wife, I would gently remind her that she may well be damaging her relationship with her son, if she tries to force him to interact with Christianity at this time, as well as reinforcing his negative perception of Christianity.

    Anyone used a 23? TFT TV as a PC monitor?

    I need a new TFT and TV and I?m wondering if it?s wise to buy a 23? TFT TV instead of two separate units. The issue is space and cost and the alternative is a 17? TFT and 24? widescreen CRT TV. It?s a Philips 23PF9946 and has a native resolution of 1280*768, DVI & D-sub and plenty of video...

    Can I clone a Win2k install from a ghost DVD-R (PATA) to a SATA drive?

    It gives a BSOD with the message, ?inaccessible boot device?, which is par for the course. I know enough to realise it would fail as the install doesn?t have the SATA drivers to access the Controller. But I was hoping that it?s possible to repair it. I downloaded the latest SATA drives for...

    I have a nice clean install of Win2k on a DVD-R that I created in Ghost for the purpose of cloning to a new system.
