    Anyone able to buy a Travestar 7k320 yet?

    Been waiting to get one for my Macbook Pro since it was announced... Any leads on when we can actually get one standalone??

    Asus a8n-e..

    I figured it out! The problem was I've been updating the BIOS in Windows using AsusUpdate. This time I went to 1006 using AWDFLASH in DOS and that really cleaned out the BIOS, and now my setting stick! THank goodness. It seems the windows utility isn't doing a good job of updating. Anyways...

    Asus a8n-e..

    You have the Q-fan techonology enabled in the Hardware Monitor part of the Power savings part of the BIOS. That's why your fan speed varies, and may fall below the specified minimum there. So you can turn off Q-fan or lower the speed limit, both in that part of the BIOS. Now anyone have a...

    Asus a8n-e..

    OK... Here's a follow up to my experiments... the inability to overclock does not depend on the OS. So, it's a BIOS issue I think. I tried MacOS and Linux, and neither held the overclock settings in the BIOS. Any ideas?

    Sorry, fixed! I meant the Asus A8N-E... Leave it to the mobo manufacturers to come up with a8n, an8, k8n, etc to confuse us! :)

    Asus a8n-e..

    Hey guys. I've been working with a new A8N-E Rev. 2 with the X2 4200+. I can't get this thing to overclock from the BIOS. It's strange, I set a higher clock, back down the memory and HT bus for safety, and boost the voltage a bit to the processor. Also, I locked the PCI and PCIe busses at 33...

    Can't overclock my Asus A8N-E mobo at all - very odd...

    Ditto that here... I think something's weird... the BIOS knows it's overclocking, but when windows loads up, it goes back to normal speed... Can't figure it out. I'm using a a8n-e bios 1006 with an Athlon X2 4200+... Guess I can try AI Booster, but I'd prefer to use the BIOS. Ed

    Apex 27" LCD HDTV $999 @ Sears - No rebates needed

    On the Olevia, black is only decent looking head on... if you move 30 degrees or more off center, it will wash out a lot from the backlighting.

    UPDATE: Athlon 64 3200+ combo for $199at Fry's

    It should be a good deal... The board is an ECS 755-A2, which AT reviewed quite well. I've not had problems with the ECS boards I get from Fry's. Then again, I am not overclocking terribly much, or doing any weird stuff. I jumped on the $75 Sempron 2400+ with an ECS KT600 board, and it works...

    Is MAC filtering good enough for 802.11g?

    I'm concerned about both problems... The problem with turning on WEP or WPA seems to be that I have some intereference between my router and main computer (they're in different rooms). If my 2.4GHz phone is any indication, when I walk into my computer room, I get a lot of interference for...

    Is MAC filtering good enough for 802.11g?

    I've set up my wireless network and have a question for y'all... Is MAC filtering "good enough" for a home network? I tried using WEP and WPA, but found that it REALLY hurt transfer speed... I'm pretty sure my neighbors won't be able to casually steal my bandwidth, but what about the more...

    *** Official ASUS P4P800/Deluxe (865PE) Thread ***

    I might add that the 1009 BIOS will allow your RAM settings to "stick" in turbo mode. This is great, since it allows me to run my HyperX at 2-2-3-5 with Turbo and MAM enabled, and finally achieve a decent Sisoft score :) In the prior BIOSes, turning on "turbo" mode meant the BIOS ran you RAM...

    LA Fry's: Pine 4x DVD-R/RW - Pioneer Drive - $139.99 AR

    Don't know about CS, but for an authentic Pioneer DVR-105 drive, this is a great price, even when you factor in the $1.20 you have to pay to send 2 rebate forms to Canada :P. If you're new to DVD burning, then you may want to go for the retail Pioneer box ($179.99 @ Fry's) for it's better...

    Abit IS7 to Asus P4P800

    The only thing that you'll need to do in XP (if you're running a legal version) is you'll have to re-activate it over the phone. Otherwise, switch away... I did, and I'm glad I did. MUCH more mature BIOS now. Ed

    Here are my notes for this board from a previous post... 1. In order to use ALL the IDE ports (IDE 0&1 and SATA 0&1) you need to Map the SATA ports to IDE3 and IDE4. If you want to boot from SATA, you have to turn on the RAID controller, even if you're not running a RAID. My config right now is...
