A8N-SLI Deluxe BIOS 1015-005

Using 1015 now and not getting BSOD's any longer with Platinum X-fi. I do, however, get the static and crackling that people speak of in the Creative thread I linked above. The noise is not continuous though.

*** Official ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe (nForce4) Thread ***

Interested to know if the new BIOS takes care of issues recently discovered between NF4 mobos and Creative's line of Xtreme Music and Platinum X-fi cards. Creative is stating that a BIOS update can take care of the issue or you can send the card back to them for a firmware mod. Several other...

A8N-SLI Deluxe BIOS 1015-005

If anyone has updated, please post your status. I'm very curious if this BIOS fixes any issues related to the current discovery of problems existing between NF4 boards and the Xtreme Music/Platinum editions of Creative's X-fi cards. Using 1014 and getting BSOD's with X-fi Platinum. See...

Anyone know how this worked out? I'm having the identical problem with a X-fi Platinum edition.

X2 game issue...Is it the same with ATI and NVIDIA?? How many problems are the P-Ds having???

Well, a format and reinstallation of XP + the X2 driver seems to have done the trick for me. BF2 runs smooth as silk now. I have to say, after getting through the frustration, and seeing how smoothly the game runs with AVG scanning in the background........I'm a believer now.

^^^^^ Would you mind laying out the steps you took while re-installing? Did you use the X2 drivers? What order did you install things...etc, etc. One last question, do you have to set affinity after you've reinstalled?

I've tried all the suggested fixes barring a reformat. Nothing has worked. I play BF2 primarily and once I begin moving in-game, I get a lock up, blue screen, and then a reboot.

Can a faulty (possibly) IDE drive cause disk corruption on a RAID SATA setup?

Situation: My system has run solid for about three months. About two weeks ago, I return to the computer after stepping away (so it's just sitting idle) and return to see that the system is locked up. No keyboard response, no mouse, nothing. Power down, wait, power up. System hangs at...

Hard Drive Problem?

I need to chime in also.....except I have a twist. I'm running two WD Rap's in RAID 0 on the NForce controller. I also have a third Seagat 7200 plugged in. It's an IDE drive though....... I'm having the exact same problems as in the article. Format after format, I leave the Seagate...

*** Official ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe (nForce4) Thread ***

I have some very basic questions in regards to udating chipset drivers to the newest Nvidia Nforce 4 ones that were just released on March 17th. How do you do it cleanly? Do you simply download from Nvidia and install without removing the old ones? How do you verify which version you are...

Mouse pads...?

I have a question for any Exactmat owner. Do the rubber pads in each corner look or feel like they could end up coming loose over time? Just a quick update. My Thunder 9 (rough) arrived and there are a few positives and negatives: 1. The size is awesome. No chance of running off the edge...

Razer Diamondback Mouse software won't install

LOL, great response to a less than needed reply! I've had the 510 for roughly a year and recently purchased the Diamondback. Hands down, the Razer is far superior in terms of gaming. If you alternate between the two of them, the Razer is noticeabley faster and more responsive. As someone...

Mouse pads...?

I just purchased a X-Ray Thunder 9 (rough) and we'll see how it goes. I have to admit, I'm a little leary and wonder if I'll return to the cloth as you mentioned. Problem is that none of the stores in my area have these types of pads on hand so you can compare then in person and get an idea...

Mouse pads...?

Anyone know where you can buy the Razer Exactmat from? The Razer site sells it with a wrist pad for $33 USD. Seemed high. I thought you could get this for roughly $20 USD. On a side note, anyone use the Xray Thunder 8 pad? It's been getting good reviews.

Asus A8N-SLI Delux Gigabit Lan ports

Perhaps I'm missing it in the Asus manual, but I don't see the indication of which Gigabit LAN port is the PCIe one. After reading the roundup here at Anandtech, I now realize both ports are run by the Marvel controller however, one is PCI and the other PCIe. Thanks in advance.

Can't format hard drive in xP setup

I'm installing XP Pro on a RAID 0 array consisting of two WD 74 Gb Raptors. Using A8N SLI Delux. For whatever reason, once XP setup asks to creat the partition and then formating follows, the whole process hangs around 8% and doesn't continue any further. Can anyone give me any idea as...

XFX 6800GT PCIe power connector

This may be an extremally silly question, but please keep in mind this is my first build. My XFX 6800GT PCIe card came with a power cord that obviously connects to the card and then becomes a split (Y) for two molex connectors. The documentation for the card simply says "plug in power...
