    Warranty Sticker ON TOP of OEM 2.0 Northwood CPU

    Yep, using Arctic Silver II. I live in South Florida, so my mobo/CPU temps usually run higher than many of the Anand folks. I don't run my AC too much. All is running well now. I'm even overclocking this baby to 2.3 GHZ and my CPU temp at that higher speed (at 1.6 V) is 51 C. Thanks again...

    Differential Current in Abit TH7-II Bios - What Is It?

    In the mobo book, it says that it selects the "current multiple of CPU clock" and the options are 4x, 6x, 7x. The default is 6x. The TH7-IIs have this new bios setting under the RDRAM Bus Frequency setting. ??? I thought the CPU multiplier of P4s was locked and set under the Operating Speed...

    Warranty Sticker ON TOP of OEM 2.0 Northwood CPU

    Held my breath, took the sticker off, put 'er back together and lowered my CPU temp to 48 C. Mobo temp is actually 41 C, so that's not as huge a difference. All is running well. Thanks to all of you for your advice. My gut feeling about this was the same as yours.

    Northwood CPU Heat Concerns - How Hot Is Too Hot?

    OK, just to let you know I've searched AnandTech and didn't find the answer I needed, so here's this post. I also started a similar thread in the CPU section, but didn't get an answer to this question. I also checked Intel's web site, but didn't understand their darn chart, which talks about...

    Warranty Sticker ON TOP of OEM 2.0 Northwood CPU

    Just to make this clear, the sticker IS on the heat spreader. On the P4 Northwood, there's no other real place to put one, so that's probably why the dopes stuck one there. Ironic - they will probably get more fried CPUs returned because of their stupid sticker than from frustrated folks like...

    Warranty Sticker ON TOP of OEM 2.0 Northwood CPU

    Bought a 2.0 Northwood, am running it now on my Abit TH7 II with latest bios that reads Northwoods correctly. Everything seems OK, but what really ticked me off was that there was a warranty sticker on top of the CPU that said "Void If Removed". I don't like stickers on top of CPUs. It gets...

    How Do I Go Back To ACPI In WinXP?

    Hey, thanks for the tips on hidden devices. Opens up a whole new world! However . . . I need to know how to go back to ACPI, too. I might try NT/Legacy support and see if it works better than ACPI, but I not sure. I found a link telling how to reinstall ACPI, but when I did what it said I...

    How Do I Go Back To ACPI In WinXP?

    How Do I Go Back To ACPI In WinXP?

    OK, I deleted the ACPI driver under Computer in Device Manager, wanting to get spread out the interrupts in WinXP. They were all on 9. Did, that, rebooted, all my devices were detected and put on separate interrupts, it was great, until I tried to shut the computer down. I've lost the ability...

    Error Checking In Win XP Isn't Working!

    Been testing XP RC1 for four days now and love it, but has anyone gotten this problem: I have a WinMe/XP dual boot, with WinME on the C: Drive (Fat 32) and XP on the D: Drive (NTFS, cleanly formatted before XP install). Ever since I scheduled error-checking on Drive D, and I only scheduled it...

    AMD AGP and VIA 4 & 1 Drivers needed in WinXP?

    I'm more than halfway through downloading Win XP RC 1 (woohoo!). I have the Azus A7M266. Do I still need to install the AMD AGP and VIA 4 in 1 (or 3 in 1) drivers? Or does WinXP now take care of it? Really would like to know before I put this on a clean HD.

    P4 or 1.33 AMD - That Is The Question

    Whoa! Thanks all of you for your comments. I'm not a troll, I'm just trying to decide if the P4 is the way to go right now. Thanks to your info, I've done some more research and decided on this: 1. P4 looks to be a dead-end right now with new mobos coming out this fall or early next year. 2...

    Napster to disable all versions except 10.3...

    Agree with ya' Macro on Napster. They were the greatest. It's sad to see those guys get slammed. They are heroes to me. And if WinMx gets the job done for ya', hey, no problem! Enjoy!' I just find the rarer, harder-to-get stuff on Audiogalaxy instead of WinMx. 6,000 or 7,000 hits really...

    P4 or 1.33 AMD - That Is The Question

    I'm sure it's been debated already, but . . . If all other things are equal, what is faster in 3D games and Adobe-like rendering - a 1.5 ghz P4 overclocked to 1.7 on an Abit TH7 with PC 800 RDRAM or a 1.33 ghz T-Bird overclocked to 1.45 on an Abit KT7A Raid with CAS 2 SDRAM? With P4 prices...

    Napster to disable all versions except 10.3...

    I've used WinMX, too and Audiogalaxy has a lot more mp3 files. Audiogalaxy has more obscure titles, too. Not as good as Napster was, but it's the best of what's left for mp3s.

    BlvdKing, I've used both and I prefer Audiogalaxy. I'm only into mp3s, but it seems to have more of those than Kaz/Morph.

    Napster to disable all versions except 10.3...

    Napster was the best for about 1.5 years, but since February, it's been filtering itself into oblivion. I use audiogalaxy.com now, but nothing so far has beaten Napster in its heyday last year. I will miss it.

    Hard To Tell Your Burners Without A Scorecard!

    Just bought a TDK VeloCD 24X burner. Was gonna sell my Plextor 161040A to help pay for it. After research, I've decided to keep the Plextor and return the unopened retail TDK. From all I've read, my Plextor may be a little faster. There are so many burners out there, so I could be wrong, but is...

    Which Sound Card To Buy & Racing Wheel Problem

    One more thing I forgot - I run a few old DOS games in a DOS box in WinME, so I do need to keep WinME around in a dual-boot configuration. The MX300 does DOS-box games great and my new sound card needs to as well.

    Yep, time to buy a new sound card. I'm trying to dual-boot WinME and Windows 2000. I'm studying for my MCSE and setting up a home network to connect with my daughter's computer. I have a cable modem ISP and some webpage serving is probably in my future. Just bought a router, too! Whoopee! But...

    are all 1Ghz Tbirds 266fsb AXIA cores?

    Yep, I was at a show today. Saw both, on both 1.2 and 1.3 Ghz CPUs. Spent an extra $15 to get the AXIA core. Running 1.43 GHZ rock solid in all 3D games. Will run 1.5 Ghz in most of my apps without locking. Happy here!

    KT7A & 1.1 GHZ T-Bird Means No More BX Chipset For Me!

    I had been running a BX chipset for two years, the longest I'd ever stuck with a chipset. My last BX rig was a BE6 Ver. 2 with a 700 Pentium 3 overclocked to 966 mhz, 138 mhz FSB. Didn't see a compelling reason to change - until now. I LOVE my new retail 1.1 T-Bird & Abit KT7A combo that...

    KT7A-RAID: Can't boot from floppy or CD ROM Drive

    Love this board, but a weird problem: I can't boot from the floppy drive or CDROM Drive. When I try, I get either an ATAPI boot failure from the CDROM Drive or Disk I/O failure from the floppy. But both drives operate normally in Windows ME! Everything in the BIOS looks OK, too. Never had such...

    What has better visual quality - Herc GeForce 2 Ultra or CLAP 2 Ultra?

    The reason I ask is because I just upgraded from Herc Prophet GTS 64 MB (GeForce 2) to the CLAP2 Ultra and it seems to have sharper images at higher resolutions than my old Herc. I have a chance to trade up for a new Herc GeForce 2 Ultra if I throw in $25 with it, so I would like some...

    Which Vid Card - GeForce 2 Ultra 64 MB or Radeon 64MB?

    Had a Herc 64 MB GeForce 2, but this CLAP 2 Ultra seems to look sharper. That's why I shied away from a Herc Pro or Herc Ultra. I've used a V3 3000, V2, V1, TNT 2 Ultra, Riva 128 ZX, even a Terminator DX Virge in my computer travels. Mini, you're right, V3 looks good, but to my eyes, the CLAP...

    Which Vid Card - GeForce 2 Ultra 64 MB or Radeon 64MB?

    Looked at that hardware bug article, but consider it in the same league with other hardware issues that Radeon has, too. Those issues cancel each other out with both cards. I want to thank everyone for commenting. I think I may have to sneak test a Radeon myself before finally deciding, but it...
