System has been running fine for months then all of a sudden, starting a couple of weeks ago, both CPU's in the machine will quickly equal crashed hard drives and instant freezes on Windows start (including setup).. Can run the machine fine running solo on either processor. Thought it might...

Is there a way to restore the default multiplyer on a XP2400. At the moment it gets detected as a 933mhz cpu by my motherboad (ga-7va) with unforunately no bios options to change the multiplyer. I need to find how to change it back to it's default of 15x.

When I turn my computer on it halts while the bios is seeking the hard drive. The led is on, but it just stops. If I hit the reset button it finds the drive and boots normally. Any subsequent reboots are always normal as well. I have checked all of the cables and none are loose. I am wondering...

First off, I realize this is not a hard drive newsgroup. However, I never visit any hard drive groups, and I know the folks here know what's going on so I'll ask here...plus I have an AMD system :) I just upgraded to a Chaintech motherboard with the Promise SATA controller. I WAS excited about...

I bought an Athlon XP 3000+ (Barton) and an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe motherboard. For some odd reason, the board detects the processor as an Athlon XP 1300mhz (!!!). This may have happened after a system crash...I installed new nVidia drivers for my GeForceFX 5600 128MB ddr card and the installer hung...

I have this running fine at 166*13.5= 2250 (2800+) and chip temp 49C whilst doing some major number crunching.. However, I have made 200*11.5= 2300 which worked fine until I tried to push it to 200*12 and now I can't seem to work out how it kicked in the first time as I never made this again! My...

First thing you need to learn is that cross posting in the newsgroups is a nono. Secondly, the processing power you're thinking of getting is OVERKILL for what you want to use the PC for. ------------------------- Politicians are used car salesmen who have the public speaking gene "old"...
