I built my system with a 865PERL and had no problems at all. I decided to flash the bios from P06 to P12 - big mistake. Now, when I boot up, I get the initial Windows XP Pro logo, and then the screen goes blank for about 90 seconds and then the OS comes up an responds normally. My hardware is made...

I am planning to upgrade my older D850MV with a new D875PBZ. How concerned should I be in regards of scalability and the upcoming prescotts? TIA Jim T.

In looking at the Intel Developer site, specifically product revisions, it indicated SKU's 206 and 207 will have revisions for newer processors. My question is: Am I to assume this is for the early stages of Prescott, and as such if I purchase a 205 (currently available), I should forget about...

I'm going to build a system using the 875PBZLK board. I'm planning on using the new Cooler Master PAC T01K (aluminum mid-tower) with an ENERMAX Noisetaker Series EG475P-VE-SFMA power supply. I've read the specs for all three components, but haven't - in my mind - become certain that all will...

hi..i'm need some help on 8051 programming here... i'm electronics hobbyists...i have not learn about 8051...i jus started to play with it myself fter i saw some interesting project bou 8051 board on net. i have get a 89C51 board from a second hand shop...but it don't com with firmware. i have...

Just a regular old Athlon 64 underclocked to 1GHz, offers both higher performance and lower power consumption than Intel Atom systems. A lot of the efficiency is due to the AMD/ATI 780G chipset, which consumes just 0.95W! That is compared against the Intel 945GC chipset which used up a whopping...

So now I have a choice in 800 MHz P4 processors - I can get the "D" chip built at 0.13 micron or the "E" chip built at 90 nm. Common sense tells me the smaller the processing, the higher the potential for error (and meltdown). On the other hand, the newer chips tend to see improvements in the line...

When trying to place an order for an Intel D915GAGL microATX motherboard, I discovered that Ingram Micro as well as Tech Data etc. have no stock of this, nor any other new 915 / 925 chipset motherboard, and don't expect any until August 28th at the earliest. Why is that, I wonder? Best...

Is this the right group for problrms possibly to do with the 915P chipset? TIA RoS

On a 915PBL motherboard (3.2GHz/ 533FSB) can anyone come up with a sound technical reason why using 2 x 1GB Kingston DDR II SDRAM (KVR533D2N4) might cause problems? (no other memory is fitted) Effectively this is a double sided version of the Kingston Technology KVR533D2N4/512 that is already on...

I've seen this MB advertised at http://hardware.priceok.co.nz/category/motherboard/intel/box_925xe_lga775_atx_1066_800_fsb_gig_lan_ddr2_533_raid_0_1_en,22336.html I have not seen it on the intel site, or much elsewhere for that matter. I want the 1066FSB if available and have held off buying the...

Specifically, the Abit AA8XE Fatal1ty. Are these boards 24-pin or 20-pin? (for the power supply)

Do they require 24-pin connectors? I've heard no mention of this, anywhere. Specifically, the new 'Fata1ity' board.

Hi, I've been the owner of a 945GTP motherboard for 2 months. Yesterday I reconfigured the bios, and it appears that I miss some memory configuration. Even when I have 533 MHz DDR2 memories, there was something in the "agressive" mode that made the system crash. It gives me 3 beeps (thats base 64K...

Looking at building new system, thinking about the 930 cpu and an Intel 945 board, probably the D945PVSLKR. Few quick questions, Is the 930 less "hot" than the 830? I've seen a lot of posts from people who say they had to buy third party cpu fans, because the 830 ran too hot. I've also seen...

I was previously running 2022, and after this update I can hear myself think. That is, I didn't realize how much the fan tach must have been off. The fan now is much quieter (slower) and the temps still stay at a reasonable level. fwiw

Hi all! I was having some trouble with my AOpen EU965 barebone ( http://xc.aopen.com.tw/Cube-m-specification%20.aspx?Auno=2209 ) and getting access to the full 4GB I plugged into it. And now their helpdesk is telling me the following: 'Based on the specification of the chipset, it can support...

At the Intel site, the system bus of the Q965 chipset is described as "1066/800/533 MHz-2 threads", however the system bus of the G965 and P965s only state "1066/800/533 MHz". What does "2 threads" mean, is the Q965 system bus somehow different from the those of the G965 and P965? TIA

Which of these is going to be better for the Core Duo chips? The 975X has been out forever, and the 965 just came out. The only real difference I see is that the 965 supports SATA II? Is that the only difference? Is there going to be a revision of the 975X? Kind of weird if a lower number is...
