    BSODs

    I see you have an Nvidia 6800 Ultra. I was pulling my hair out for like 3 weeks and even exchanged the motherboard. It turned out to be a combination of the 6800GT and "DEP on" with my A64. I see you have DEP off however have you tried much earlier or beta 71.x Nvidia drivers? You may want to...

    The thing to watch to is prices might be real low at one retailer like ZipZoomFly but you end up paying for it in shipping charges. Last I checked back in Decemeber ZipZoomFly had really high shipping costs compared to New Egg and Mwave

    Quiet Cooling recommendation needed

    I heard the difference was just a few degrees. As for the fans who do you recommend? Everyone seems to recommend Antec but both of my Antec fans are unusually loud compared to my cheap 80mm fans in my Intel P4P800 2.8ghz Northwood CPU stock HSF system . (its temp 30c in use but not heavy...

    Nforce3 Firewall - Is installing recommended?

    Last I checked Blackice does not have an update yet that allows it to work with the combination of AMD A64, XP SP2 and DEP (Data Execution Protection) turned on. You can always turn DEP off anyway since Blackice should pickup the buffer overflows hacks anyway.

    I am thinking if I can get load temps in the 40s the 120mm fans will be much quieter. What are your temps with this config?

    Quiet Cooling recommendation needed

    LOL, if I had known I had to keep the case open or spend over $200 on water cooling I think I would have never made the switch from Intel to AMD. None of my Intel rigs have this issue or did I just believe the Antec hype and there are better low cost fans and cases that would handle this issue...

    Quiet Cooling recommendation needed

    I tried Arctic Silver 5 and now Shin Etsu on stock HSF but my temps are nearing 60c during game play. The two 120mm Antec fans during game play are so freaking loud I cannot hear my audio. (Antec SLK-3700-BQE case). Any fan recommendations to keep this case quiet and/or system cooler...

    Dude, you bought a Dell?

    Exactly my sentiments. I have always built all my systems for home and business (all intel CPU, intel chipsets, ATI GPU's). I rarely ran into an issue with fiddling and if I did it was quickly resolved. I was also always saving money in by building rather than buying a Dell. However in my...

    nForce or realtek drivers on ac97

    The realtek sound on my Asus K8N totally sucked so I replaced mine with a Audigy2 value.

    How are these temperatures?

    I tried Arctic Silver 5 and it was actually higher. Now I am on Shin Etsu and I am hoping given a few more days temps will drop. I spent alot of time with %90 alcohol to be sure all previous grease was off. My next step was to get rid of the stock HSF and do something like you have tried...

    How are these temperatures?

    Just comparing mine to yours it sounds like 90nm is a -10c difference. Anyone here with the a 130nm Athlon 64 so I can know for sure if these temps are correct?

    How are these temperatures?

    Anyone with a 3400+ 130nm process like to post your temperatures?

    How are these temperatures?

    Yes, I am using the retail cooler. This was my first dive into AMD and my loudest system I have owned because of the temperatures. Never had these issues with P4's although I have yet to try a Prescott.

    How are these temperatures?

    From what I read Newcastle .130mm runs hotter than Winchester .90mm core. But not sure what the difference is. I contemplated on going with a 3500+ because of this but did not think the temperature difference would be that much different.

    How are these temperatures?

    I am beginning to wonder if that is actually true. Your case is identical to mine except for the color. Are you using two 120mm fans to achieve those temperatures?

    How are these temperatures?

    I see people reporting lower temperatures so not sure if these look right. 43C idle (after PC has been on 10 minutes) 54C-58C in game I am now using Shin Etsu on retail HSF. I tried Arctic Silver 5 and temps were even higher. Not sure what more I can do. I have 2 Antec 120mm fans (1...

    Asusprobe - Truepower 430w

    I am beginning to wonder if my Antec Truepower 430watt is either weak or not enough for my configuration. Listed below are my Asus probe values. Are these values too low or should they be at or over the 12v, 5v, 3.3v? +12v rail = 11.5v +5v = 4.9v +3.3v = 3.2v

    BSODs

    I recently ran into issues with BSOD due to the nvidia 6800 series drivers causing problems with XP SP2 DEP (Data Execution protection). Trying turning DEP off in boot.ini to see if you still get the errors. I finally gave up on nvidia because of this and switched to an ATI X800 Pro and the...

    Athlon 64 - XP SP2 DEP compatibility

    I had switched from the 6800GT because of this and a variety of other problems. Most of my other problems with the crappy nvidia drivers were resolved but now I have BSOD on boot up with the X800 Pro. Again only if I turn DEP on. I would be curious to know is just everyone who has an Athlon...

    IDE vs. SCSI reliability

    What you typically see which is kind of telling is warranties for SCSI being 5 years and typically 1 year IDE (and occassionally 3 year).

    Athlon 64 - XP SP2 DEP compatibility

    There was alot hoopla in the media back in August over this and I had assumed it was fixed by now. Are you guys who have posted that you are BSOD free are you running with DEP turned on? My system is stable otherwise but it seems I just can't run with DEP on.

    Athlon 64 - XP SP2 DEP compatibility

    The only reason I say this is because I can't seem to find any other reason. I am not doing anything odd, just installing WinXP, using the bundled drivers, trying the updated drivers, swapping at all the hardware but no matter what I do BSOD's continue with DEP turned on. So I go back and...

    Athlon 64 - XP SP2 DEP compatibility

    Does anyone know if Microsoft or AMD addressed Athlon 64, XP SP2 DEP incompatability issue or are they still incompatible? I had thought they resolved all this stuff when it made headlines last August. However I have had two new Asus K8N-E that BSOD with XP SP2 whenever DEP is turned on...

    Blue screen of death "IRQ" screen

    DEP protection is new only to Win xp SP2, so earlier versions SP1 and Windows 2000, do not have DEP, correct? So it sounds like if I am getting BSOD only with DEP turned on I must have a poorly written driver installed somewhere.

    Help! Two Asus K8N-E boards both BSOD

    So much for that theory I was finally able to get it to crash at 2.5. So it does it no matter what I set it to, so I guess I am on to finding another cause of the BSOD.

    Help! Two Asus K8N-E boards both BSOD

    I tried setting it to DDR333 in BIOS but no change. Next I left it at DDR400 but changed the voltage to 2.5. It did not crash yet and normally would have by now. How does the voltage setting effect performance? Does reducing the voltage really slow things down?
