Is there some program to analyse "MoBo's health"??

If your mobo would be damaged it also wouldn't work after shaking your case. Looks like the new HDD isn't working very well. Did you try another HD? And do you have the same problem then? If it's not the HD I could not think of an other thing then cabling. Just check all cables en maybe even...

Asus A8V Deluxe and HyperX 2x512mb PC3200 2-3-2-6

Read these reviews. I have Corsair TWINX1024XXL 2-2-2-5-T1 on a MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum. Runs perfect! But, if it was available on the time I bought it, I would buy Geil Ultra X I think. Nevertheless, all modules mentioned in the reviews are great and will make you happy...

Athlon 64 mobo - what to choose?

Have you ever heard about a mobo that had no problems at all and always had better benchmarks than others? If you buy a car, why would you buy that specific car and not that car that was review so well last week in the car magazine? I have to agree with SPQQKY; if you like the EPoX board and...

MSI PCAlert4 Voltage Problem?

I've just installed MSI PCAlert4 to monitor temp/voltage/fan. Now the +12V indicator welcomes me with a 2.34V in red. I cannot beleive that this indicates a problem with my psu, mobo or anything else except the PCAlert4 or Windows XP software. Al hardware is brand new and other MS K8N users seem...

What are the differences between the different DDR modules supported?

Just read in this article that my choice of Crosair 3200XLPRO wasn't the best choice I could make. Now, I'm wondering what the differences are between memory modules operating at different Mhz's. My motherboard supports DDR266/333/400/433/466/500/533 modules. But what are the differences and how...

Which mobo to get?

Ok, asking advice/idea's first is also a good idea. In my opinion the first thing you should do is decide what you want to do with your new comp. For example, I prefer the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum but a lot of people really don't need this board for the things they want to do. So, ask yourself...

Problems with Firewall software and GA-K8NSNXP-939

It's not an sollution, but a question to make you feel better about the board. If you have a look at the specs of nForce3 family, you'll find that there are no big differences between the Ultra and GB versions. Both versions are tested very good and are recommended. About the firewall...

Which mobo to get?

You might want to explore the reviews of, for example, http://www.anandtech.com/mb before asking questions about what to buy. Or, do you really beleive what whatever stranger tells you to buy and you'll just buy it? Spikey

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum?

Computer suddenly won't boot no more. What can be wrong?

Ok, now I really checked everything. Even the things of wich it's obvious that it can't be the bottleneck, like a defective disk. I don't have any more idea's that might bring me to another defective component then my mobo. So, mobo it is. My last check will be replacing the mobo with a temp...

ISA Server resultcode 200. What might be the problem?

In the WebProxyLog of my MS ISA 2000 Server I count a lot of resultcodes 200. The description is "The code segment cannot be greater than or equal to 64K.", but what does this mean? Do I have a problem with my ISA Server? Thanks! Spikey

Noob help! Please recommend a good 754 motherboard for me!

Forgot to mention. Your motherboard must be a good basis of your comp. This also means that you have to accept things like that maybey you can't upgrade the board that easy with other memory, cpu and what not. In most cases it won't be such a big issue, but some boards are just mobo's and...

Noob help! Please recommend a good 754 motherboard for me!

Reading all the reviews and comments I beleive more and more that also a motherboard choice is partly a matter of personal taste and experience. I do advice this board: http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=572. But what is your taste? Are you looking for a...

Computer suddenly won't boot no more. What can be wrong?

My beep is just one long beep (duration ~2 sec.). After that beep nothing happens. No keyboard, no screen, disks are starting up but nothing more then that, etc. It looks like this isn't even a bios beep. So maybey it is the psu. I'll try another psu this evening and other fan and I'll let you...

Computer suddenly won't boot no more. What can be wrong?

Thank you for your replies so far! I figure that it has to be a defective mobo. I have done everything to make sure that there is only just one component that is the bottleneck (even tried different cpu's etc.). The only thing I did not try jet is the power supply and cpu fan. What if I have to...

Great board! Just got it! For information about the idea behind the on single chip gigabit ethernet, read this review of Anandtech: http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2004&p=6. Note the difference between PCI Gigabit LAN and on chip Gigabit LAN. Spikey

Computer suddenly won't boot no more. What can be wrong?

Hi, Suddenly my (old) computer won't boot no more. When I power it on I hear a long beep and that's it (even the monitor, keyboard and mouse don't get any signals from the moterboard). I thought it might be the cpu that suddenly died, but I don't think so: When I switch the computer on without...

First time builder going A64

One thing you might find interesting is that the Asus board is a socket 754 motherboard. You will not be able to upgrade the CPU on this board in the near future since AMD will focus on socket 939. The price for a socket 939 CPU is higher then a socket 754 CPU, but you will be able to upgrade...
