Problem: I recently upgraded my CPU from a 2.6 to a 3.4 Prescott, and added a SATA HD (WD Raptor). After installing the CPU I checked my system configuration in XP and noticed that the CPU was only recognized as 2.8 GHz. I figured this to be BIOS related and proceeded to upgrade my BIOS. I was...

Hi, I just got an 8KNXP installed but am wondering what the best way to cool my system is. This machine is my main work machine, so I am looking for something quiet. I find the DPS2 board's fan makes a significant amount of noise. I've tried reading some of the docs, but to be honest, I...

Can someone help please. My pc has a 7N400 Pro2 mobo fitted and things were okay until I decided I wanted more ram. I had 2 x 512 sticks in slots 1 and 3, I bought a 1gb stick and tried it in slot 2, it wasn't seen. I made a few enquiries, and understood that I needed low density ram, so I bought...

Hello, I got a strange behavior with my 8KNXP rev1 (winXp pro sp2) and, I think, probably at Bios level (last one F13): I use the primary Ide for one Ata drive and the secondary Ide for two optical drives (DVD and CD). Sometimes, the slave optical drive (on secondary Ide) disappears and the only
