what heatsink can i use for opteron 244 ? thank you N.G.

In an earlier thread I reported that I couldn't get Win4Lin to work on my new Athlon 64 notebook. I now have it working on a 2.6.7 kernel on Fedora 2 (32 bit version). To get Win4Lin to work on the AMD64 you have to do the following when building the kernel. 1) It must be a 32 bit kernel, Win98...

Hi All, I had ordered PC3200 memory for the Opteron 242 by mistake instead of the PC2700 memory (246 and above use the 3200). I am still waiting for other parts to come in and was hoping I did not have to exchange the PC3200 memory for the PC2700 as I would have to pay a hefty restocking fee to do...

Hi, What board is best for a 1u rackmount case? Im initially looking at Gigabyte GA-K8N.. The case im looking at takes standard atx boards, so is there anything else to consider? will the 200w psu be enough for a 3200 Athlon 64 and 2 sata drives? Thanks!

This went into the alt.comp.mainboards.abit group to earlier today but I figured it was worth posting here as well. Has anyone actually managed to use the Via 8237 SATA driver to successfully install WinXP64 on a SATA disk? I've created a SATA driver disk using the instructions provided on a...

I'm thinking of buying this board and a 3200+ and would like to know what some of the experiences with this board are ,and if you have it, what brands of memory do you recommend? Also, can you use dual channel ram on a non dual channel board? This would be my first non-Intel CPU and I'm a bit...

Hey Guys/Gals I just got a spankin new K8V SE Deluxe and an A64 to replace my P4 system. Have a Maxtor 120GB SATA hd as well. Tried to install WinXP Pro (with SP1) after booting from it, and after windows does its thing loading a few files, "Starting Windows", Windows kindly informed me that...

Anybody using this version? Need to fix some issues with large drive configuration combined with a sata dvd writer. PS: Using a separate board for SATA since ASUS on board does not support Optical drives.

I have an Ausu K8V SE Deluxe. I currently have 2 PATA drives....200GB Maxtor and 250GB WD installed in the system already.. I just bought 2 SATA Maxtor 250GB drives. I would like to stripe these 2 drives. The Asus board has 2 sets of 2 SATA ports. Which ones should I use for the new drives ?...

Hi, Just gave a shot to this 64bit Windows... Running Athlon3500 on Asus A8V. Everything else (except had to install regular PATA disk to set up this windows...) went smooth but the ATI video card drivers do not install. I did read from Anandtech that they too had a problem with X800...

Similar to Jason's post! I'm trying to install build 1218 on an A8V using the 64 bit Fasttrack 378 drivers. When in the initial phase after F6 and "s" to install those drivers, I get the error message: File \AND64\fasttrackx2k.sys caused an unexpected error (18) at line 2283 in...

Hi all, I am baffled by this. Every so often, around 2-3 times a day about 90% of the running applications go into a 'not responding' state but the PC is not hung. I can still start Task Manager and launch new applications (although they soon hang after launch). If you wait 5-10 minutes then...

I love both AMD 64 and dual processor (SMP) I'm software developper, and having a SMP computer to test multithread developement is useful. And my main computeur has a near 5 year old Asus P2B-DS...
