I couldn't resist this awesome deal either, despite the horrible reviews of the drive at Newegg. Luckily, I still had an unopened 2500K I purchased less than a month ago. I sent my friend who lives near Microcenter (I live 45 miles away) to exchange it plus $20 for the combo deal. She also...
I'm definitely not a Mac guy. The only reason I had the drives in that HFS+ format was so I could easily grab video footage from friends... who all happen to have Macs.
I connected my 2TB to my friend's Mac last night. It was unable to repair the disk, but did allow limited access to the drive. What a relief. Good call nothinman.
I already knew I had to blow away the partition of the 1.5TB, but disk management in Windows 7 kept giving me an error every time...
I have a Samsung F4 2TB drive formatted to HFS+ by MacDrive for use in an external enclosure. My system locks up (thanks P8P67 Pro!) during a data transfer and I have to reboot. I am unable to access the drive, getting the error "The disk structure is corrupted and unreadable" in Windows...
I had the same problem early on with my build. Every time I moved something around in the case, the 24 pin and/or 8 pin would come loose. It was really annoying.
If you're not already using the latest 1502 BIOS, try flashing it and clearing CMOS again.
My P8P67 Pro has given me nothing but problems as well. I suffer from the occasional random system freeze while I'm in Windows.
Microcenter has been getting B3s. I got mine there 2 weeks ago in Tustin...
I've run some more tests, swapping another flash drive between the front and back USB ports. Data transfer speeds have been consistent. However, I did have a data transfer freeze during a test which also knocked out my keyboard and mouse. And every time those go out, I can't simply plug them...
Already corrected the wiring. Front USB and Firwire ports seem to work fine. I have had my USB keyboard and mouse stop working a couple times while plugged into the back USB ports though.
After months of waiting, I finally scored a P8P67 Pro for my 2600K at Microcenter last weekend. Due to my haste and lack of experience with onboard firewire, I accidentally plugged a USB cable into a Firewire port. I know I fried one of the two USB devices (flash drive) I plugged had plugged in...
3 left at the Toys R' Us on La Cienega in LA as of 1pm. Just happened to be driving by on the way home, and decided to give it a shot. Quite surprised to find a copy. Dude at the counter said a lot of people have been asking for it. Turns out they just got a shipment in a few days ago. Btw, they...
Any suggestions? I am building a gaming computer for a friend. Looking to put 4GB of good + fast RAM with overclocking potential in his system. He doesn't know much about overclocking, but I'd like him to have that option (I'll leave a preset in his BIOS). I haven't been keeping up with the...
I've got my E4300 at 1.3875v in BIOS, fluctuating at either 1.344v or 1.328v idle and 1.312v under load in CPU-Z. Can anyone tell me what my CPU's vCore really is?
And yes, dropping vCore DOES significantly lower temps under load.
Sounds like your Arctic Cooler 7 may not be securely fastened to the cpu and motherboard. I have my E4300 overclocked to 3.0Ghz on stock voltage, and was also getting 50 degrees idle and 70+ degrees on Orthos. I had to undo and redo it like 5 or 6 times, because every time I pushed down on the...
How reliable is CPU-Z? Been trying to OC my new E4300. Seems like many are getting 3Ghz+ easy out of theirs (on stock Vcore) , but I was struggling with stability at 2.7-2.8 with minor voltage adjustments. Thought I just got a bunk cpu, but then I noticed inconsistencies in CPU-Z readings. Using...
Thanks spinejam.
I might have to get 2 pairs. There's no way they can possibly go even lower, can they?
For anyone else interested in this ram, I googled and found a good discussion of it here: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1172086
Anybody have suggestions for good cheap 2GB DDR RAM? I've just migrated to Vista Ultimate and that OS is a RAM hog. I've got an Opteron 165 OC'd to 2.6 and my OC'd OCZ Value VX 1GB PC3200 Dual Channel RAM at 2-2-2-6 timings on a 5/6 divider. Fast 2GB dual channel DDR kits are expensive and hard...
