Anyone using an ATI 8500 card with an 845PE?

I tried an Epox P4-4PEA+ with disasterous results. First the thing didn't like my ram, replaced and worked. Then it will only boot my AIW 8500DV if I clear the cmos everytime. Tried different video card (old radeon aiw) and booted. Then I tried to setup my Windows XP installed on an existing...

EPOX EP-4PEA+ strange problem

In case anyone is interested...the problem was the video card. I pulled out my AIW 8500DV and inserted my old AIW Radeon and all is good. I don't understand why. Looks like an incompatability with the ATI 8500 cards? P.S. I tried to install an old TNT card and I couldn't even plug it in...

EPOX EP-4PEA+ strange problem

I just received my Epox EP-4PEA+ and Intel P4 2.4B processor. Since the first power up nothing good has happened. First I had a nothing but beep codes everytime I tried to boot the thing. I determined after a lot of testing that the board must not like my Micron PC2100 ECC 256mb memory. As it...

Yup. Runs through all checks and reads "FF". Means all is good! I just get the 3 short beeps and a monitor that is in sleep mode. The rest of the system sounds like it completes the boot up.

EPOX EP-4PEA+ strange problem

I did that. The beep codes for Award Bios are not very descriptive. I already know that the 3 short beeps mean that there is a video problem. My issue is why do I have to clear the bios every time I try to boot a second time. Even if I don't change anything. Clear CMOS, boot (ok), boot...

Would you buy an NEC FE1250+?

One thing I've noticed is that in the latest issue of CGW, their Ultimate Gaming Machine tests eight machines from various vendors. Of these eight machines, four had NEC Multisyncs and one had a Mitsubishi (same thing). The vendors with the NEC's are: Voodoo, Alienware, Hypersonic, GMachines...

Unfortunately, one of my requirements for the monitor is that it is black. I've seen many posts about which monitor to get, however, black seems to be rare in quality monitors.

I need a new black monitor!

I have been watching posts forever about monitors and just can't decide what to do! I want a black monitor approximately 19". The primary use is gaming (Max Payne, RtCW, Nascar 4, etc.). I would really like an LCD, however, I am rather picky about the ghosting issue. I have read a few posts...
