Yeah, I tried one and unfortunately, I did not win.

Running into major problems on my first attempt at SLI

I'll have to use the stock cooler to test this theory either later today (doctor's appointment!) or tomorrow. Unfortunately, I can't reposition the cooler i'm using to access the first PCI-X slot. With most mobos (maybe all?) designs, manufacturers tend to throw in an x1 PCI-X slot between...

Running into major problems on my first attempt at SLI

I doubt it's the cold bug since it happens even when I had shut it down and pretty much started it back up immediately (less than 2 minutes). It seemed to have no problems when I had accidentally fallen asleep and went into sleep mode (guess I forgot to turn it off this function, since I...

Running into major problems on my first attempt at SLI

Before I go through that (I wouldn't mind trying it if it had a chance of fixing it since i've been diagnosing so often I haven't really settled in yet), i'm actually curious if it matters what slots I use for SLI. That's one theory I have running. As it stands, I am unable to use the...

Running into major problems on my first attempt at SLI

Nope. The only raid device I would have is one built in to the mobo itself. What i'm finding most frustrating about the issue is that on the initial install of the drivers and enabling of SLI, it will run through standard benchmark programs and run games for hours without issue. But when I...

Running into major problems on my first attempt at SLI

So I built a new computer finally and decided i'd finally jump on SLI and with my luck apparently crashed head first into a brick wall. I narrowed it down to SLI being the problem, however, I don't know how to further narrow it down to determine if it is motherboard, SLI bridge, or something...

[Retired] The LCD Thread

So i've spent the last couple of weeks bouncing between this thread and the displays forum at HardOCP and i'm seemingly as stuck as ever. I'm in the market for a new monitor since my trusty 20WMGX2 seems to be going (has a weird faded black chevron shaped line going across the top, no idea if...

What monitor stand for 20WMGX2?

I picked up the 20WMGX2 based on the recommended list from the LCD thread. Only issue i've found (besides a minor backlight leak) is that the stand it comes with isn't height adjustable. The seemingly popular Neo-Flex stand, however, doesn't support it according to Ergotron's email I got this...

Monitor Issue - Red circle and Line, some green

I really wish I could supply a picture of it, but I only have a webcam and it doesn't occur at a time when the Webcam is accessible. I have a ViewSonic P90F monitor, less than a year old. Starting about 2 or 3 days ago, I noticed a small red square in the center of the monitor about 2/3 of the...

Repopulating Add/Remove Programs?

Okay, for some reason my Add/Remove Programs utility decided to bug out. Basically, 80-90% of the programs that should be listed, aren't and the programs which are still listed, no longer have a change/remove button associated with them (save for programs I installed yesterday and for some...

Rackmount Heatsink for Dual P4 Xeons

Are there any high performance heatsinks designed for use in a 2U rackmount for Dual P4 1.8GHz Xeons? Seems I can only find reference to the stock Intel heatsink/fan combo. There any others?

[Abit AT7 Thread] {Abit AT7: the one with mad specs...}

I dunno, I think even if LAN and sound was removed there still probably wouldn't be enough space for another PCI slot. The big space hogs are the extra RAID connectors and the extra USB 2.0 headers and the firewire headers, the stuff that people want on the board. So there wouldn't be any point...

[Abit AT7 Thread] {Abit AT7: the one with mad specs...}

Black Square Thingies on the AT7 What are those black rectangle things? On my ABIT AT7 I got, they seem to be set like a few degrees crooked. You can see it in that pic, the one on the lower left and the one on the lower right and noticeably a little crooked. Are they supposed to be crooked...

[Abit AT7 Thread] {Abit AT7: the one with mad specs...}

The AT7 should be available now, and if not, they should be available by the end of the day on the 16th. I know that atacom.com had a shipment which they sold out the day it was put up, so I preordered one from their next batch. Most stores on Pricewatch that say they're getting the AT7 expect...

[Abit AT7 Thread] {Abit AT7: the one with mad specs...}

Woohoo! Thanks Chubbz, puts my mind at ease. Didn't want to end up with a floppy-less board in a week or two when mine comes in hehe. But I am still curious as to the space around the cpu socket. In all the pictures I could find, it looks like a very tight area. Any ideas on whether or not it...

Does this thing have a floppy? I'm praying that it does since I just ordered one. The pricing is about 172-199US plus shipping.
