Will appreciate thoughts on the build I'm working on.
I'm putting together a system with the i7 3930k processor. I'd like to use the Corsair H80 liquid cooler. I purchased the PNY GTX 580 video card with liquid cooling.
Any thoughts on making these two 120 mm mounts work in the...
Thanks for your help in advance. I am building a new system based on the P5W DH Deluxe. My intention is to use a Raptor on the Intel SATA connectors as my system drive and then mirror a pair of WD RE2 500's on the ASUS ez-backup connectors. While installing XP MCE 2005 on the Raptor, I'd...
I have not been able to distinguish whether the PC-S80 Silver and the PC-S80A are the same model or if the S80A is a revised model. Can anyone shed any light on this? I ordered an S80A and received an S80 Silver. Is it the same thing?
Thanks!
The KT880 chipset supports ECC RAM and the KT880 Delta manual says:
"Please note that the DDR SDRAM can support ECC (error correcting code), but does not support registered DIMM."
I'm going to try pulling one the sticks one at a time and see if I can isolate which stick is not functioning...
I have this same motherboard. I replaced my three year old Gigabyte GA-7VTXE with this one because the computer suddenly crashed and wouldn't reboot. I got a message that there was a hardware problem and Windows was doing a memory dump. It suggested rebooting once if this was the first time I...
It is a weird squealing/grinding noise initially. Glad to hear that this seems to be pervasive. I checked each drive independantly to verify that they both made the same noise and they do. The noise undermines my confidence in the quality of the drives, but if everybody is hearing...
I just added a pair of Maxtor 10k IV 37 GB drives to my system which previously had only a Seagate 15K 37 GB drive. The Maxtors BOTH make a nasty startup racket. Anyone have any experience with these drives? I'd like to know if the noise is normal.
Thanks!
I just went through this myself today. Had a very hard time getting into the flash utility on the board, but I finally found it. Had to try several times. You have hit the <alt> + <F2> on boot as indicated in the manual. But then you have to hit tab to clear the video image and go to the...
Actually, the mail is currently under Mozilla 1.1. I was planning to install the latest Netscape 7.0? on the new machine. I suppose that if it helps, I could go back and install the latest Netscape on the old machine before trying to transfer e-mail so that it went from the same program to...
Is there a way to migrate all my old e-mail from my last computer to my new computer? I have not installed Netscape yet. I'm waiting for an indication about whether this is possible before proceeding with Netscape installation. I switched operating systems from 98SE to XP during this new...
I just finished assembling my new system as noted below. The A7N8X deluxe came with the "g" bios installed. The system posted just fine, but the bios identified my XP 2700+ as a 1300 MHz cpu. And it autoset the FSB to 100MHz despite the fact that the board was jumpered correctly for the...
I just finished assembling a new system for home use and installed Win XP on a bare drive. Windows detected and formatted the drive for me. But, I may have missed something in a blur of "next" responses, but I didn't see it offer to format my second drive. There are two WD JB1200's in the box...
Thanks. If I understand you correctly, the Win 98SE UPGRADE disc WILL suffice? I have the upgrade discs, just no full versions to insert when asked for. As long as the Win 98SE upgrade disc will satisfy the XP install program, I'm golden.
I intend to install the Windows XP Professional Upgrade to a bare drive. I understand that the Windows 98SE disc will allow me to verify eligibility. Can anyone tell me from personal experience whether the 98SE upgrade disc will be sufficient. I only own upgrade versions since Windows 3.11...
Has anyone tried populating all 3 memory banks on the A7N8X Deluxe board? I know the Anand review article says it works fine, but I'm concerned that the board may have been as "special" as the bios that was used.
Thanks
I'm currently constructing a new system and will use WinXP for the first time. I'm looking for a couple of bits of information:
The proposed setup is:
ASUS A7N8X Deluxe Mobo
Athlon XP 2700+
Corsair TWINX DDR400 Memory - 2 sticks of 256 MB
Western Digital SE 120 GB drives - 2
MSI GeForce2...
