    No signal from video card

    Sailor420, Resetting my BIOS to look for the PCI card first does not do anything. It's also interesting that clearing the CMOS does the same thing on my TForce 6100-939 mobo, i.e., it sets the PCI (not PCI-E) to first in the video post sequence. Actually in my case, I determined that the...

    No signal from video card

    I wish I could. There is no option in the BIOS setup for disabling the onboard graphics - at least for my motherboard that is the case.

    No signal from video card

    Interesting symptoms & solution. I had the exact same problem with a Biostar mobo w/integrated 6100 graphics onboard, old video card = 7600GT, & new video card = 9600GT. Actually, the 9600GT card was working for over a year but failed recently, & I have the 7600GT back in there temporarily...

    best mb for the opteron 144?

    If I had an Opteron 144, a strong 20-pin PSU, and limited budget, I'd give the new Asrock 939SLI32 mobo a try. Preliminary reports indicate it's a great overclocker, has decent performance, and has a couple more features (SLI, gigabit LAN, 1394, etc) than the Asrock ULi 1695 (Dual SATAII)...

    If you;'d like to gamble a little, why not give the new Asrock 939SLI32 board a try: http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2706

    Asrock dual sata 2 owners: are you having trouble with 1T command rate for your memory? please read inside for details

    I can testify to the above becausse I have the same memory in this mobo with an Opti144 running at 270 X 9. I can run my Kingmax at 1T at 173 mhz (133 RAM speed BIOS setting) that yields higher memory scores (memtest86 and Sandra05) vs. at 200 mhz at stock settings and 2T. Of course the...

    BIOSTAR TForce6100-939 has NIC problems.

    Have you tried the latest BIOS update dated 1/27/06 which came out recently? BIOSTAR-USA has it but the Taiwan (hdqtrs) doesn't for some strange reason. http://www.biostar-usa.com/mbdownloads.asp?model=tforce+6100-939

    Biostar TForce6100-939 vs Biostar Geforce 6100-M9

    TForce is reportedly the Biostar top of the line boards - intended for overclocking. In addition to the capacitors, there is also a jumper for VDIMM of up to 3.1 V vs. the standard GF6100 M9 is under 3.0 V. Other features of the TForce series are shown here...

    problems with Biostar/Redfox M7NCG 400 nForce 2 motherboard

    Try to use a more updated processor such as a Palomino, TBred, or Barton. As I recall, there is a problem with this board when using older CPU's such as the Duron & Tbirds. I had a 1 ghz unlocked Morgan which could not overclock in this board - the CPU multipliers selected in the BIOS...

    Best high-quality OCing mATX mobo?

    Thanks for the clarification. I don't necessarily agree with your preference for Asus or Abit - every brand/model has their drawbacks. It's more of a question of wanting to pay more for more features. But it is probably best to wait for now unless you have some pressing need for hardware due...

    Best high-quality OCing mATX mobo?

    Congratulations on your rig! What FSB, timings, CPU multiplier, etc. are you running at? I've settled mine in at 182 X 12.5 w/ my 2500 Mobile Barton (1.625 Vcore) & 7-3-3-2.5 (pair of 256 MB Samsung PC2700's) - all other voltages at default. What do you think of the Aria? I read some...

    Best high-quality OCing mATX mobo?

    The three versions that I know of are 1.0 (original - I got one), 7.0 (no overclocking adjustments), 7.2 and later (restored overclocking adjustment features). Are you saying that the 7.2 is worse than the 1.0, and why? I'm just curious as to what is (or isn't) on the 7.2. Thanks

    Best high-quality OCing mATX mobo?

    Agreed - NF2 IGP chipset is not rated for 200 mhz FSB per NVIDIA specs. However, if the board has chipset voltage adjustments, you have a good chance of running OK at that speed, & you have a better chance of running 200 FSB with an add-on AGP card. My Biostar M7NCG400 could run at 200 FSB...

    KM400 vs Nforce 2 motherboards

    I saw all that but it seemed to conflict with the info on the rebate page here: http://www.mwave.com/mwave/rebate.hmx? That's why I called to clarify - the guy said the extender ad only applies to w/ CPU, but might be good to get it in writing to confirm.

    KM400 vs Nforce 2 motherboards

    Just got off the phone w/MWAVE - rebate is if you buy the mobo with CPU and not for just mobo alone.

    Best high-quality OCing mATX mobo?

    The Biostar M7NCG400 is the best deal if you want all the overclocking adjustment features (just don't get the ver. 7.0 PCB - Newegg reportedly sells the ver. 7.2 now), low price, and the two sets of pinouts for using the front USB slots and the card reader. Other good ones are the SHuttle...

    Biostar M7NCG-400 opinions?

    I?ve had the NCG400 for a couple of weeks. It?s a fun board to tinker with since it has most of the BIOS overclocking options available in addition to the onboard video. I was able to run mine with the onboard video at 200 FSB and complete 3Dmark2001 (in addition to Burnintest, memtest86+...

    shuttle an35n does not identify 1.4 athlon correctly...help!

    Let me ask an embarrassing question (sorry if I offend you but am just trying to help): in Advanced Chipset Features of the BIOS setup, is the Memory Frequency entry that you have entered 100% or 200%? It should be 100% to run synchronously w/ the CPU. Maybe you could list all the settings...

    which board?: asus a7n266-vm or biostar m7vig pro?

    You are going to buy DDRAM memory so you might as well buy the nforce board - it's performance will be better than the Biostar due to the better onboard graphics which will benefit his Autocad. One thing I've heard is that the MV7iG Pro comes with the 6-channel Cmedia sound chip which I think...

    Western Digital 180GB HDD $159.99 AR / Buslink 48X CDRW $19.99 AR @ CompUSA

    The $19.99 40x12X48 CDRW@ CompUSA is NOT a rebadged Lite-on under the Buslink brand name. It used to be (I got one) but the current model (at least what I found at our local store) is actually a Cyberdrive 40X16X48. It gave me problems in the RW mode so I returned it.

    There's no rebate on this one. I just bought it. The fine print says savings only. If it says savings and rebate, there is a MIR. Call them up yourself.

    new durons and unlocking?

    The Morgans have the ceramic case like the old Tbirds and Durons, and so you just have to do the pencil trick or apply the defogger paint without having to worry about filling up the holes with super glue. The difference is that they have five L1 bridges to bridge unlike four on the older...

    Need help with overclocking XP1800+ past XP2000

    Harrybear: The reason you cannot go higher is that the highest cpu multiplier with your unlocked CPU is 12.5 even though your board supports the higher multipliers. What happens when you go above 13 (12.5) is that the multiplier drops back down to 5.5, and hence that is why you get only 733...

    256MB DDR 2100: Samsung double sided vs. Elixir single. Read info here

    I tried a PNY 256 MB DDR which had only 4 Infineon chips on one side, and this stick could not even run stable at 133 mhz on my Soltek SL75DRV4. My slower Centon 256 DDR, by comparison, worked fine at the fastest memory timings at 133 mhz. If you are planning to overclock, you should probably...

    Shuttle AK35GT2... Only $74 at Newegg...Let me know what you think

    It's a good value board - stable, 6 pci slots, good/clean onboard 6-channel sound, 4 DIMM slots, no fan on the KT333 chipset, and extra USB pinout connectors. The only little points that I don't like are the meager software package and the placement of the CD & AUX audio input connectors near...

    ECS K7S5A low audio - almost no sound

    OK thanks for your in-depth evaluation, Buz. I don't have experience with the AK31 but I do own an AK35GT2 (and a Soltek SL75-DRV4) in addition to the K7S5A. My K7S5A has the older onboard sound which sounds tinny (as in tin can) to me. Consequently, I have it disabled and a separate PCI...

    ECS K7S5A low audio - almost no sound

    Buz: This is off-topic but I was wondering if you?d mention how you like the performance/operation of your Shuttle AK31 in comparison to the ECS K7S5A since they are nearly the same price at Newegg (when available) now. Of course, you need DDRAM for the AK31, but don?t factor this into your...

    D-Link NIC good as Linksys for o'c?

    Just want to give my 1.5 cents about the Linksys NIC's: I've had good oc'ing results with the LNE100TX (one is a very old version while the other is more recent). However, I also found that the cheaper NC-100 model cannot overclock at all.

    ECS K7S5A What is the truth?

    ECS K7S5A + Antec 300W SmartPower PSU?

    Crucial PC 2700 DDR SDRAM

    Dulanic is right. I had to crank the Vmem on my Crucial PC2700 up to 2.6 to make it run stable at 166 mhz on my Shuttle AK35GT2 at CAS2 and other most aggressive memory timings (1T, fastest, 4 bank interleave, etc.).
