    Help me out. I need a case brand name.

    I have an IN-WIN which I think will allow that. I think it was a "500a" model. It's also a large case, if you don't need a large case, you might be able to buy 2 mid-tower cases for the same price.

    running linux on my 486, which distro and can I do it??

    I think you'll find that Mandrake is for Pentiums and higher. There was a special version released for 386/486, but I don't think the latest is. It was a special 7.0 release I think. I very much like Mandrake and do recommend it, but only for the newer systems. I think a lot of the newer...

    What do the "week x" things meen?

    It's coded on the chip as to what week it was made. People have found that certain weeks seem to overclock better than others. For Athons, that seems to be weeks 7,8,9 of this year so far. Myself, I have a week 7 Athlon 1Gig that's doing 1.4Gigs now, and I haven't even tested the limit yet.

    10.0 x 133mhz = 1.33Ghz ...possible?

    I picked up an Asus A7V133 (rev 1.05!) last night, along with an Athlon-B 1 Ghz chip. It's a AXIA coded Week 7 chip. I quickly had it running at 10X multiplier on the 133Mhz FSB. That gave me the 1330Mhz that you're asking about. Actually, I had 1343Mhz as my FSB ended up slightly above...

    Wow, never seen this one here! 1GHz TBird at 1.5GHz!

    No recommendation of a B vs a C chip? This is in reference to my difficulty in locating a C chip and the ease in which I can get a B chip. See above. Thanks.

    Wow, never seen this one here! 1GHz TBird at 1.5GHz!

    Thanks for the reference to the article on the AXIA code. Unless you have an overclocking friendly store, it's likely pretty difficult to sort through their collection of chips (all the stores around here keep them in a backroom/safe) though. And trying to explain to them why you want a...

    Wow, never seen this one here! 1GHz TBird at 1.5GHz!

    HI, What does the AXIA code mean? And why doesn't it appear on 1Ghz CPU's normally? I'm having a hard time getting a C chip in town, but the B's are available. Should I hold out for the C, or just go for the B? I'm looking for a 1Ghz chip, which I hope to overclock to at least 1.2Ghz (and...

    How can I use an old system with Linux for a cable modem router?

    If you want to make a real easy gateway/firewall, check out www.coyotelinux.com. In a few minutes you'll have a single floppy that you can use for this. No hard drive required. It's quieter, cheaper, cooler, etc. There's a few other ones like this too, I just happen to use this one on an...

    How to get Mandrake 7.2 to access my lan?

    Is your Mandrake install able to ping the Window's box? Is the interface up? 'ifconfig -a' will show you the settings and status of the ethernet card. Yes, Mandrake can be a gateway. Looks like you've got some basic debugging to do and that there's no quick answers here. Go and check...

    Is it worth it to pick up Mandrake 7.2 if I already have 7?

    Ya, or download it. I found the 7.2 a lot nicer to work with than the previous ones. Of course the next release should not be far away either, so you may want to wait.

    HELP: I can't get my ethernet card to work in Red Hat 7

    I ran in to a problem with these the other day. Seems like there is a new version of them that is a 905c or something like that. The standard RH 6.2 (don't know about 7.0) distro installs the wrong driver by default. As suggested here, you need to set the /etc/conf.modules to the correct...

    Can i somehow make a bootable cdrom this way?

    Why don't you try fixing the original CD? People have had some success with repair kits or even the Brasso metal polish. Look around for further info. There was a web site that compared a number of products recently and showed the results. Unfortunately, I can't remember who it was.

    The Best Linux?

    HI, Personally, I've like Mandrake. It's worked well for me. I just downloaded the Redhat 7.1 beta though and I'm about to try it. Remember that you can also download these distros, so if you have the bandwidth and a CD Burner (you can also do a net-install, but I prefer to have the CDs)...

    How do I install IrDA functions on my desktop?

    HI, I recently installed one on an Asus A7V motherboard. I think it is the ASUS IR device. I'm using it with the Palm Vx and it's working just fine. One really big thing to watch out for. Make sure that you have a place to install it (a case window) and that it's at a reasonable place...

    Please clarify: Can pc133 RAM be used as pc100?

    HI, I've got a friend with a K6-2 500 on a P5A with a mixture of PC100 and PC133 RAM totalling 196 Megs. I think it's one stick of 64M of PC100 and 2 of 64M of PC133. Seems to be working just fine for him.

    Any way to recover corrupted CDRW data?

    HI, I don't know if this will help you or not, but my HP drive came with a package called "CD Diagnose". It has a bunch of advance things like: "Recover Track" which tries to recover the last track on a CD if it was damaged. It will let you close sessions/tracks. Have a...

    Do you like your trackball better than a mouse?

    I have a Logitech Trackman Marble from a few years back. I used it exclusively for the first year or so. It was great for normal desktop stuff, but I didn't find it worked well with games like Diablo. I switched to a Mouseman+ and I've been using it now for about 1.5 or 2 years. The...

    Photoshop, PaintShop Pro, or Another...?

    You may want to look in to some of the photo specific software. I tried out paintshop Pro and it is a really great package, but I found that for what I needed, PhotoSuite from MGI did the job for 1/3 the price.

    Overclocking or upgrading a Compaq 7800 laptop

    Hello, I've got a Compaq Armada 7800 laptop here with a PII 266Mhz CPU. I know they sold these with up to a 400Mhz CPU. Can anybody give me some advise on either overclocking what I have (I've done this lots on a standard PC, but never a laptop), or whether I can upgrade the CPU from 266 to...

    Which Linux to use...

    HI, I'll jump in and say Mandrake as well. The 7.2 Final release just came out this weekend. It's on the mirrors, but the main web site hasn't said anything yet. I just finished installing it from ISOs and this is one of the first sites I've gone to (after Mandrake's then slashdot). I've...

    Poll: Does anybody use ReWrite, with their burners?

    Plextor DMA on ASUS A7V ->Plextor Support Team->Not Possible

    Stealthy, With the change from the Asus to Abit boards, what difference have you seen as far as the Plextor drive goes? I.e. what difference did getting to enable the DMA mode make for you? I assume the CPU usage went down, but has that impacted you in anyway? Thanks.

    Backup Software with Plextor 12/10/32 CDRW?

    Corky-g, When I asked about a virus, it wasn't the concern of cloning one (although that is a concern), but that an activated virus could wipe out your clone disk too since it's still present if you are only using the 'hide partition' option to shield that media.

    UDMA CDRW on VIA chipsets

    HI, It might be difficult to know for sure if you have DMA one. One way would be to watch the CPU usage while reading a large file from the CD drive. I found that the VIA DMATOOL would allow me to turn on DMA for my HP 8110, but it was lying. The drive doesn't seem to be a DMA drive, and I...
