I recently bought a Samsung 840 EVO drive and after running the Samsung Magician software's OS Optimization feature with Maximum performance selection noticed that Win7 would wake up from sleep mode on its own after few minutes.
In my case Samsung software had created a new power plan profile...
Zalmans VF900-cu is a great heatsink. I have aplied to my own X1900XTX and now for my friends 1950pro. The heat decrese is quite amazing, we are talking about 10-20c drop with both cards under idle and load. And those degrees are with the fan turned into minimal RPM. I dunno how ATI managed to...
When ever a computer reboots itself suddently and especially under 3D load the PSU is the first one to suspect. I hate to say, but I have personally lost every bit of confidence towards Antec PSU, having 3 of them die on me and hearing lots of crap about Antec in the Internet has not helped any...
Alot of people set manually fan to run at higher RPM with software like ATItool etc. Not sure if the fan control works yet with 8800 and Vista, should work under XP if I have understanded correctly.
Hate to say it but your logic is bit faulty, because both manufacturers have occasional duds among them and god forbid theres even been large scale manufacturing errors on some series of cards.
I would also consider that 7xxx series are no longer manufactured and their support is going to end...
Thanks for the tip, I´ll try to set the monitor sleep time to 1min and test it with different programs.
edit:
Ok Iam pretty confused now. When I set sleep mode to 5min it works flawlessly no matter what programs are running. When sleep is set for 10min it fails to initialize sometimes...
Hello
I have a pretty weird problem at hand. Its about my monitor refusing to go into sleep mode. I have set from Windows properties that monitor should shut down after 10 minutes of idling. But the problem is, that most of the time this is not happening.
Sometimes Windows correctly cuts...
Intresting times. My wallet is not the fattest around so I have plenty of time to ponder which one of these chernobyls to get :)
My only consern are the drivers. Seems to be the trend to release hardware as fast as possible and drivers are lagging behind badly. Seen plenty of people complain...
Yes I actually tried multiple different reciever locations, different usb ports etc. Installed setpoint all over again etc, but nothing seemed to help. Suprisingly after I dropped my CPU overclock from 2.8g -> 2.7g all my mouse problems seem to have vanished.
Iam pretty amazed myself how an...
I usually point my blaiming finger on PSU when computer reboots itself during heavy usage. Blue screen etc and I start to look into memory/CPU issues. But the above poster has a valid guestion, does this happen on any other applications aswell?
Hello there
I got this Logitech MX Revolution mouse about a couple months ago and it has started to act funnily. The cursor just simply freezes for a instant time to time. There really is no patternt to this behaviour, sometimes there is more of it and then again sometimes it works fine...
I would also like to see similiar or updated version of this guide for AM2 DDR2. I have been searching around little, but havent been able to find clear guide for AM2 DDR2 OC. Since I founded this thread superior for my Socket 939 OC, I would like to see similiar for AM2 :)
hclarkjr your right. After many hours of testing I finally found one Flash site which crashed my computer. Then again I probably won´t ever visit that site intentionally, so in that light I could use 1T with no problems. I hope Asrock will fix this although game speed wise this is not a issue...
Just recieved my G.Skill ZX 2g dual kit from England and Iam happy to inform that 1T works like a charm. No boots with Flash animations or any errors.
Lets hope it lasts, Greenmans comment was´t exactly encouraging :)
Boake:
The 3.0g speed worked fine for a day, I played bit COD2 etc with no problems. But with Galactic Civilization 2 I got reboots after 10 minutes or so. Iam not totally sure did the change back to 1.5g speed with HDD correct this or my electricity wiring order :) Well anyways back to 1.5g...
ill give the 3.0g mode a try this evening.
About the original guestion. has anybody fixed their 1T probs with memory change?
edit:
changed Hitachi drive to work on 3g speed and XP is stable, no problems. I have not tested long but so far no errors.
Hitachi tool did not find my HDD while in sata2 port but I had better luck with the regular sata1 port. You were right boake that the Hitachi T7K250 was set on default to 1.5g speed. There was a 3.0g speed naturally but the program insisted that a setting named "spread spectrum setting ON/OFF"...
Hi!
Yes Iam currently running my Hitachi on SATA2 port, but I also have tried the normal SATA port too, no go. Also no problems installing XP in with sata2 port, just these reboots with flash animation and errors in memtest 8# test. I have also bought better sata cable just to be sure, but...
Hello there
I have been using Asrock Dual-Sata2 for about 6 months now and it´s totally stable with T2 settings. Immidiately when I set it to T1 mode I get reboots when a www site has flash animation on it. As alot of people I have doned all the voodoo tricks there are but it always ends up...
