    Older (Core 2) computer hangs or power cycles

    Sorry I couldn't reply sooner but the computer at home is the only Internet connected device I have, and it's still not working. I did a CMOS reset and loaded all default settings, pulled out a memory stick at a time, tried booting in Windows XP, disconnected all USB devices (used an old PS2...

    Older (Core 2) computer hangs or power cycles

    I have a Memtest CD somewhere, I'll try that too. But the computer freezes even in BIOS, I don't think it can last much in Memtest, let alone through a new OS install.

    Older (Core 2) computer hangs or power cycles

    Yes, even 13W seem a little bit too high while the computer is turned off. Now, even the the PSU power switch is turned off completely, it still pulls 0.9W. But unfortunately, it will probably take a few months to save the money for the new build I've been dreaming. I've been hoping the...

    No, I haven't tried that yet. I'll try it when I get home. Thanks for the advice.

    Nvidia G100 cold boot problems

    I don't think I can open the PC case without voiding the warranty. In any case, if it's a hardware problem, it doesn't concern me. I could use memtest86 to test the memory though. I guess they could do that (didn't test to see if it this problem occurs after the computer is awaken from...

    Nvidia G100 cold boot problems

    Here's the original link where I first saw the problem described: http://www.semiaccurate.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3191 It has several links to other forum posts. It seems this is a common issue. Just to clarify though, in my case I'm talking about the low-end Nvidia G100...

    Nvidia G100 cold boot problems

    Yes, that's possible, but a lowly G100 isn't that power hungry. Luckily their computer is still under warranty, but it would be inconvenient for them to stay without the computer for a few weeks and they wanted to make sure this isn't a software issue at least.

    Nvidia G100 cold boot problems

    Yeah, I've seen other people reporting similar cases to yours with GTX 460/470/480, but I'm not sure this is the same case. The computer freezes when they try to start a game, not after login. I'm not even really sure the problem is caused by the video card, but I don't see what else could cause...

    Nvidia G100 cold boot problems

    Hi guys. A neighbor of mine called me to try to fix a problem with their computer - their computer hangs when they try to load a game after a cold boot, but it works fine after a reset or restart. In more details, when the computer cold boots, and they try to start a game, the screen...

    AMD system fails to boot after overclocking attempt; clear CMOS didn't work

    No, it has four leds indicating cpu phase switches. They're all on, and all the fans are spinning, but nothing else happens. No more beep, nothing. I did all of the above, it didn't work. I give up. It seems I really did fry something. At least I hope it's just the MB. Just so I know in...

    AMD system fails to boot after overclocking attempt; clear CMOS didn't work

    Left it out for 40 minutes, still didn't work. Thanks for your help though. I'll try leaving it out until tomorrow, there's nothing else I can do at the moment; it's late here and I'm going to sleep.

    are SiS Mirage 3+ IGPs any good?

    Hi. I saw some very cheap laptops with Core 2 Duo processors, but which have SiS Mirage 3+ integrated graphics. I'm figuring the whole chipset is SiS. I know I'm not going to be able to play games on them, but what I'm interested to know is how good their drivers are, how well do they handle...

    Quick Guide to getting your 4850/4870 up to and running

    I am only concerned about the PowerPlay issues. I am not concerned about the temps, if the manufacturer says the GPU should hold at those temps, then I don't really care how high it goes. And anyway, if I wish I can fix the temps and fan speed issues by editing the xml of a profile. There I can...

    Quick Guide to getting your 4850/4870 up to and running

    Thanks for the info, I was afraid of that. Well, the only reason I would return it (and the only reason I would need warranty) is if the card stops working, in which case I don't think I will be able to flash the old BIOS back, even with a second graphics card. I'll need to think twice about...

    Quick Guide to getting your 4850/4870 up to and running

    Hi. I have a HIS HD4850. Just curious, do you lose the card's warranty if you flash it's bios? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but, for example with a motherboard, it's no problem if you do it, you actually have special utilities for that sort of thing included on the CD. But with a video...

    Oh, no! Here we go again! A few months ago, I wanted to buy an 8800GT, but then I found out about the mysterious new HD4800 series AMD was working on. I began reading absolutely everything I could find about them, all the speculation about the specifications and performance on nordichardware...

    Question on die shrinks, GT200b specifically..

    9800GTX+ performs very close to an overclocked 9800GTX at the same frequencies, both in terms of power draw and in terms of temps. ATI was able to reduce the power draw A LOT by going to 55nm (though the die size wasn't the only change, but still), I would have expected the G92b to have less...

    P35 MB: Gigabyte P35-DS4 or ASUS P5K-E/WiFi?

    Thanks, NoelS. Command rate 1T is a setting for memory timings, it means faster memory access (if the memory modules support it, of course). But Gigabyte P35 motherboards generally don't support this from what I read, they only support 2T. I was wondering if this is a limitation of the P35...

    Q6600 or wait for Penryn?

    Well... my argument was, that even IF I wait, what can I get more for 266$? I really doubt that Q9300 will have more value than a Q6600. Q9450 is going to be better than Q6600, even if it has a lower multiplier, no doubt about it. But it's price will also be ~20% higher (316 vs 266), and I don't...

    It's stock multiplier is 9x. 9 x 266 = 2394MHz I want to buy this processor too. I never had a Core 2 processor, but from all I've read I don't see why you couldn't set the multiplier to 8x.

    P35 MB: Gigabyte P35-DS4 or ASUS P5K-E/WiFi?

    Eriol, from all the reviews I read, I really think that ABIT IP35 PRO is better than the other two. If it was still the same price as DS4, I would get it without hesitation. But in my country it's 40$ more expensive than the DS4 (I checked at dozens of online stores, it's actually even more...

    P35 MB: Gigabyte P35-DS4 or ASUS P5K-E/WiFi?

    I know about DS3P, but it's very hard to find it where I live. Actually, there's just one store that has it in stock that I know of. The price difference between that store and DS4 in other (cheaper) stores is just 10 pounds, not counting shipping tax. So it's really not worth it. But thanks...

    Thank you all for your answers, especially NoelS. Well, mgutz's P35-DS4 review was really useful. The DS4 seems to have poorer cable management (this might be of concern to me since I have a case with a side window :) ), and it seems to have other shortcommings too. I see that many prefer the...

    P35 MB: Gigabyte P35-DS4 or ASUS P5K-E/WiFi?

    Thank you, it's nice to be here :) Well, I was really leaning towards the Gigabyte DS4, I wanted to get that board since it first appeared. I liked it's design, it's features, the fact that it claims that it's built with more durable components, and the fact that it claims to have a better...
