Anyone in the UK beware that despite what's published in the Gigabyte motherboard manuals and on their web site there isn't any support of their products in the UK. I've recently sent them an email to the address as stated in a manual from a motherboard newly introduced to the market plus filled...

Hello Newsgroup! Quick question: Will my GA-6VXC7-4X, REV 3.0 mainboard (BIOS version "FC", date: 2002/2/26) support a Socket 370 FCPGA 2 Celeron 1.4Ghz processor? I am currently using a Celeron 800Mhz processor, but I would like to upgrade to the best that my mainboard will support, and the...

Hi All, I have an 8INXP and a Creative TI4800 AGP graphics card. In the Bios the only settings for Flexible 8x AGP are Auto or 4x. I ran PCmark2002 the other day and it said my motherboard was 2x enabled, so I changed the bios from Auto to 4X, and now PCmark says 4x enbled. The thing is my...

I have a Gigabyte SINXP1394 Motherboard (running version F6 BIOS), which has a standard 4-pin Infrared/IrDa/IR header on it. However, there is no BIOS option to enable using the onboard IR port (which should replace a COM port). I bought the module, and at a friends place soldered it together...

In device manage, my CPU is listed twice. Is this normal for my 8KNXP board to display?

Hi, I am planning to buy the GA-8KNXP this week, but everywhere I checked I found that the recommended modules for this board are Corsair's. Unfortunately Corsair is not available in my country, so I was looking for other options. Note that I am not planning to overclock the memory. The modules I...

The GA-7VTXE and the 7VTXE+ besides ATA100/133? Spotted a couple of +'s on ebay and was thinking of replacing my standard 7VTXE due to some bad capacitors. Also, would I be able to get away with swapping my standard out with a + without having to re install the OS (WinXP)? Dont want to do a major...

Hi there everyone, I am very very new to this group as I only got my computer put together in the last couple of days with a Gigabyte 7N400Pro and an Athlon XP2700. My friend who built my machine has the same setup and his worked fine straight away. Mine, on boot up, recognises the CPU as an...

I have the Gigabyte 8KNXP and so far have been pleased with this board but I am having a problem. I don't even know if it has anything to do with the board, the problem is sometimes when I put a cd in one of the three drives I have the computer just switches of and reboots, no error messages...

I have a 2.4 CPU and tried setting it to 2.6 by moving it up to 220 from the 200 default (200x12)...that set off a loud screech of an alarm and it crashed. Had to remove the battery to restore CMOS so it would post. I had set it before to 210 and that worked okay, so when I was showing off to a...

I picked up this motherboard today and installed it. I also got some Kingston CL3 PC-3200 memory (2x512) running in dual channel mode and a P4 2.8GHz Northwood "C" processor. Everything went well and everything works. However, I have three questions/concerns... I have not re-installed Windows,...

I want to set up a 120gb SATA drive as the only drive in the system with XP Pro. Can and how do I do this? Thanks, Bill Karoly

I am going to build my new system next week, I am one day away from getting the GA-7N400 Pro2 mobo and an AMD processor. Is this a relatively decent motherboard free of problems and popular? Compared to other gigabyte models of course. It seems to have everything I need, I just want to make sure...

my motherboard monitor (gigbyte 7vtxe) warns me... Is this dangerous? I have some random lockups, could this be the reason? Thanks! --=20 F r e e

Trying to set up with 3-sata drives. Had system working with 1 sata, and when I added the raid pair it fell apart - gets into a reboot loop. As anyone had success with this setup - or can someone suggest an approach. The documentation is less than illuminating - probably better than my Japanese...

Hiya :) Current spec: GA-7VAXP-A, Athlon 2500 (Barton) clocked to 2GHz, 512MB PC333, Asus GF3U, Win XP Pro. Problem: MOBO is about 5 months old and the RTC seems to keep losing time - around 1 minute an hour. I've changed the battery, tested the original as good. I'm reduced to updating the...
