I found some bug in Nvidia "IDE" drivers for K8NF-9. Any temperature monitoring program hangs the computer, after I installed new HDD (Seagate SATA 250GB). Previously I had single ATA HDD and monitoring programs run normally. At the moment they do not. For example: SpeedFund 4.2.2 hangs after...

Everytime I shutdown, and it's apparently after all of the running programs have been stopped because the screen is dark and it's a split second before the power goes off, I hear a loud noise through the speakers. It does indeed sound a bit like too many beans. I can not find the source, and...

I'm sure this has been asked many times, but I've only found a couple references that conflict with the GB website. I've got a new GigaByte motherboard: GA-8I945PL-G w/LGA775 and 300GB Maxtor SATA HDD. What I want is... IDE1 Master = CDROM IDE1 Slave = 0 IDE2 Master = 40GB Boot drive IDE2 Slave...

Hi: A friend of mine is trying to put a 2400+ in my GA-7DXR. It previously had a 1.333 thunderbird in it. The system won't power up now. We've tried different power supplies, another cpu (900 mhz 200 FSB), clearing the CMOS, taking out the battery, and replacing the power switch. Before I took...

Hi, I've just bought one of these boards as 'refurbished' at a very good price but it's missing everything except the board itself. I've got cables etc. and can download manuals, drivers etc from the Gigabyte website. The main thing that concerns me is the missing VRM card. Will this board work...

Contemplating getting a 8KNXP with a P4 2.8 (maybe 3.0) but can't decide if I want to get the Prescott. I don't expect to overclock and will probably get stock pc3200 memory (Crucial or Kingston). I'm somewhat worried about heat problems with the Prescott with the supplied standard cooling. Should...

Could someone please offer advise over which board would be preferable? I currently have both & would appreciate some info as which to put in my main system. Using an Athalon 2600 in the main system and a 2400 in the second.

I have just finished building my system with a 8KNXP motherboard. I want to update the BIOS before I start with an OS installation. No matter what I do I can not, in Q Flash, get the system to either save the current BIOS to a floppy nor update the BIOS with the newest BIOS from a floppy. No...

Anyone using one of these?

Has anyone noticed that the native XP system drives get you into the OS very quickly, but when you put the native nVidia drivers on, it slows the boot time by a factor of 2 to 3 times? Does anyone know why this happens? I have rebuild my system several times (not to correct this problem), and I...

Has anybody installed an Athlon XP 2600+ (333) Thouroughbred in to one of these boards? I have now tried two boards and both report the CPU as an XP 2000+!!! It seems that the fsb won't go above 133? I have tried the cpu in a different board and it is reported correctly. I have also flashed the...

I built a PC using a GA-K8NNXP-940 and FX53 retail . . . the CPU was showing 70C in the BIOS and was running 80C under 100% CPU, I have read of others having the same problem. Case temp seems OK and the CPU heatsink is not quite too hot to touch . . . I think the motherboard is mis-reading...

Help, I'm trying to add a high speed disk controller (Silicon Image 680 RAID) to my BX2000+ card and it finds the attached drive but refuses to boot to it. When I put the controller card in (and disable the promise controller) it won't even boot to the floppy. Just locks up after finding the...

Has anyone able to use this BIOS? It didn't allow changing of bus speed or any paremeters for that matter. I had to go back to F1
