I just tried a different PSU and its doing the same thing. I'll mess around with the connectors, if that doesn't work, I think I'll just order a Duron or something. Thanks for the replies and keep them comming if you have any more ideas!

ATi Catalyst 3.4 drivers

I think that the Cat2.4 fix some half-life bugs, dunno which ones off the top of my head, check the fixes list for the drivers for details on what they are. Unless new problems arose with newer drivers, then I doubt they will fix anything. So far I have tried the 3.1's and 3.2's, both with...

ATi Catalyst 3.4 drivers

Has anyone tried these with HL/TFC/CS? With previous drivers I had very unstable FPS, it was pretty much unplayable, so I had to put in my old GF2 MX. If these drivers fix the unstable FPS, I'll put my Radeon back in.

None of my CD-ROM/RW Devices are working

When you say 'missing' do you mean missing in Device manager? or in My Computer? The devices are visable in device manager (w/ exclimation mark by it) but not in My Computer. Either way, I'll give it a try later on tonight when I get back from the movies.

Which 80G Hard Drive? Please Advise

2 of the 3 Maxtor drives I've owned have died and I have RMA'd them both. The 3rd drive is still running after two years, and I wouldn't be suprised if it died sometime soon. I own 3 WD drives and none of them have died, still using them. My vote goes to the WD drive.

98 not recgonizing FAT32 HD

Recently I formatted my HD's, both with FAT32. I installed 98 and XP on the same partition (I know its a no no but I can't get 98 onto the other partition). XP recgonizes both HD's, but XP only recgonizes the HD its on. I am sure the HD is FAT32. Anyway to fix it so 98 see's it? Thanks.

Quick question about WinXP..

I'm wanting to reformat my HD with a FAT32 partition rather than an NTFS and reinstall XP on that partition. I was just wondering if I install XP on FAT32, will it still recgonize NTFS partitions? Thanks.
