The Christmas/New Year break will soon be upon us, and I've started considering what this year's project is going to require. Last years project: P4PE is still no slouch..... So the question is: What to go for for the most fun/bang for our buck/quid for its new stablemate?? I'm a long way from...

Is it possible to change the multiplier in the bios of Gigabyte's GA-7VM400AM with VIA KM400A chipset? Maybe in the advanced options? www.gigabyte.de/MotherBoard/Products/Products_GA-7VM400AM.htm I possess the GA-7N400Pro2 and there you can change the multiplier via a dipswitch on the motherboard...

My Swiftech pump is leaking. I thought I read somewhere that it was also a submersible pump. Can I submerse it in a res to avoid leak issues? Will that affect my pressure if I do? Thanks.

New build - spent 4 days on it... had it what I thought was done until I started adding usb devices - once I add more than 1 it will hang at the Testing Memory prompt - usually getting to "Testin " - then pause for 4-5 seconds and either recycle/reboot or go into vista which blows up and...

Hi, I'm considering buying a P4 2.4c for my P4B533. I've been using the dipswitch trick to oc my P4 1.8 to 2.6 and keep the 3:4 multiplier to run the ram at ~400Mhz. With the 2.4c, in order to overclock to about 3Ghz (usually within the chip's capabilities) I'd have to run the FSB at 250Mhz (and...

Can anyone tell me where to find a diagram of what each of the pins do for a celeron coppermine? I've searched the intel site and can't find it. I have a CPU with a pin broken off and need to know if it's important. Quite urgent. TIA. -- ~misfit~

Hi all, I can't manage to get my XP-M2500+ processor running at more than 200 x 9.5 =1900mhz! I have built my PC out of specially chosen components so I can overclock the processor 'to over XP3200 speeds'. As you can imagine I'm getting frustrated with this situation. The PC just doesn't...

I am currently running TwinMOS 256mb in a Soltek SL-75FRN2-L. I want to add more RAM, but I am nit sure if it is worth doing 2 x 512mb or 3 x 256mb. I need at least 768mb due to file sizes I work with, but would rather not spend the extra cash on 1GB if I don't have do. In short, what I want to...

Does putting finger guards on your fans get more air flowing into the fan? It sounds mad to be but according to the website of a very knowledgable fan seller it does. Thanks in advance, Anton

Ok, so I know it's not the best board in the world, but its worked for me so far, and its been pretty stable. I'm running a PIII 800 Mhz chip in it and I've managed to get it to run stable at 915 Mhz. My question is, is there a way to change the voltage with a Biostar mobo? I've been through all...

I suspect the BIOS "upgrade" is the source of your problems. Why not go back to the old BIOS and see? I'm running a 2.8 800FSB on an ASUS P4P Deluxe (1007 BIOS), OCZ PC3700 memory, Win2k SP4 and my system runs best at 240 FSB and memory divider 4:5. Running the memory in sync at slower FSB does...

I hate spam. I REALLY hate spam from people who cause the problem and then offer to sell you the cure. On the other hand, why anybody would be clueless enough to pay someone to tell them how to disable messenger popups? In Windows XP, go to the services control panel and disable the...

I am using a new motherboard platform that has an integrated Realtek 10/100MBit interface on it. On my old system I was using a Netgear 10/100MBit NIC which I've had no complaints with. I have both installed in my new system. I was wondering if there's a freeware utility that will allow me to test...
