Updated my BIOS from v4 to v10 today becasue i went from a 2200XP to a 3000XP barton and needed the 10 BIOS for the barton support. Everything works well, but one thing i am noticing is that my maxtor 160 gig 133 ATA drive is now showing up at post as PIO 4, and i have it set to 66/100/133 and...

Hello, Right now, I'm using an SATA hard drive as my primary one. I have that mapped to the IDE Primary Master channel in the bios. I have an IDE hard drive & DVD drive on the IDE Secondary Master & Slave channels. Can I use that IDE Primary Slave channel in any way? Or does remapping that...

I've just put together a new buget system using this mobo ,xp1800+, crucial ram , seagate barracuda hd and a 9200 graphics card . After installing XP PRO everything appeared to be fine until looking in device manager and finding that i had no drivers installed for the PCI SIMPLE...

I have an XP Pro install on a single SATA connected to ICH5R controller on 8knxp board. I'd like to add a pair of striped SATA drives & move the OS onto those, preferably using the MaxBlast software to copy all of the files. Any suggestions on how I can accomplish this? I've been reading posts...

Hello Folks, I need a recommendation for an AMD board that does onboard Raid. Integraded sound, SATA, and Firewire are not required. What kicks ass and is less than $75US ? Thanks, NuTs

Hello NG. I am the proud owner of a 6VXC7-4X-P (FC BIOS version) with a Celeron 800 and 512Mb SDRAM At Giga-Byte's website http://cn.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/FileList/NewTech/tech_v694x_370.pdf it is indicated that my 6VXC7-4X-P will support all Coppermine CPUs. However, I was wanting to know if...

Moved HD from my old computer (VIA based mobo, PIII) to the new one (GA-8KNXP PIV 2.8). XP started loading but then I got BSOD - same happened when starting up in Safe mode. As I saw some posts suggesting this might be fixed by installing the RAID driver, I decided to try. OK, got all the files...

I'm planning to buy a new bigger SATA harddrive for my system. I want to keep my old harddrive in the computer as a second HD. I want to run the OS from the new harddrive booting from the SATA location. Now there is something that tells me that this will not succeed as the boot sector on the old HD...

I know it won't run at 200 MHz, but can I use it anyway? I'm using now one 256MB chip and want to encrease memory to 512 MB. Maybe I will upgrade to a new board with Nforce2 chipset but haven't decided yet. Therefore I want to buy two 256MB DDR400 memory in advance and use it on the DXR board...

I've recently upgraded from my G4 4200ti to a FX 5700ultra and am now stumped by a constant cold boot problem.The system will not post when cold without playing with the reset button and turning off the switch on the power supply a few times.Once the system boots all is fine until the next cold...

Hi, I have 1024mb Corsair Twinx 3700 (2 x 512mb) installed on my 8KNXP. When I received the mainboard it had F3 bios installed, and simply didn't recognise the memory at all. After reading some posts here, I installed F6a(beta) and changed some of the timings and it finally recognised the memory...

Woger MKII @wogerbox.co.nz wrote in message ... Looking at some i875p reviews and I can not see how Asus gets better scores.. The default FSB is over clocked by 1% and they do not use the SPD Ram settings at all.

I haven't heard much about this board. I've heard it is pricey and loud, with lots of features. Anyone have one? What do you think? Is the noise an issue? Art

Why is there a fan on the Northbridge, the heatsink doesn't even get warm to the touch with no fan? Does it heat up under a heavy load, and if so, what component puts on that heavy load?

Hello everyone..... P4 2.26 ATI 9700 Pro I started this Maboard with 2 matched Mushkin Level II PC3200 256's. I set the board for 2.5-8-3-3. The board was nice and smooth. Dual memory was posting at 128. Battlefield1942 and Call of Duty ran nice.

Would this older motherboard work with the newer agp, or would I be smart and get the pci version of this card??

Alan, ECC: With ECC ram, your system will run slightly slower as a clock delay is imposed. If you need a high availability system (EG has to run 24 hours, is a server, is at a remote site, has mission critical apps etc.) then always use ECC. If you have large amounts of memory, always use ECC...
