BUMP Badaxe2 owner here looking to oc'ing for the first time. Want to do an easy moderate overclock. I use my rig for digital photo manipulation and storage so I can't be wasting my time recovering from overagressive overclocks. Also don't want to risk frying theHD with my photos (I do use...

Why thank you, my Lord Sir Loin of the CyberWorld. Just so I can understand this better: Speed supported PC2100 MB/sec - this means PC2100 memory runs at 2100 MB/sec? What is a MB/sec? PC3200 runs at 3200 MB/sec? I read elsewhere that the FBS was 400 MHz. Is this something different?

I 'spoke' to a live tech on the HP site...he didn't know! He's gonna have his supervisor check...:(

Crucial suggests PC3200 http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Pavilion+a220n

DARNED spelling!! That s/b Ancient RAM question and Hewlett-Packard:rolleyes: http://www.memorystock.com/memory/HewlettPackardPaviliona200n.html says PC2100 As does this...

I posed this question on the hewlett-Pachark product forum but it's dead there. No answers. This forum has biggerbrained guys so I'll ask you guys. My friend owns a museum piece - an HP Pavilion a200n which came with 256 GB of PC2100 RAM. She wants to upgrade this to the maximum 1 GB. The...

noob question here If one downloads the latest BIOS revision does it not include all of the previous ones - or must one download all of them one at a time? If one is not overclocking does one need to update the bIOS?

If you want an excellent stable motherboard that will last then get the Intel D975XBX2 Badaxe2. Intel builds boards to last (often they are used for servers). They master the art of quality board construction whereas other companies master the art of cheaper mass board production. The Badaxe2 is...

Thanks for all of your help everyone. I actually found a driver solution to my problem. nVidia no longer supports my ancient TNT line of vid cards and their site no longer has any of the archived drivers. I did manage to find a website of archived nVidia drivers through the help of someone on...

I also notice some of the vid card descriptions (such as the link you offered) refer to DDR RAM - since my mobo uses SDRAM RAM do I need a mobo that is specific to SDRAM?

this is what I read in another forum: A bigger problem is the AGP voltage. A lot of newer AGP cards will not work in older AGP motherboards. That may be even true even if the motherboard supports 4x and the new video card is 4x compatible. Some motherboards supply the wrong voltage and may...

Noob here... I bought a Dell 2007WFP for my digital darkroom computer to see how it stacks up against my NEC 20WMGX2. I think I'll keep the NEC. But I tried hooking the Dell up to my 6 year ols internet dedicated PC which has an nVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64 vid card. The highest screen...

Does the above (see bold) mean it will only accept an AGP card with up to 64 MB? And that a 128 AGP 4x card would only operate with 64 MB?

It looks like my current GPU is in the single 4x AGP slot. So I am better off looking for an AGP vidcard.

Here's the info on my mobo and GPU: Motherboard Name AOpen AX3SP(Pro) (6 PCI, 1 AGP, 1 CNR, 3 DIMM, Audio) CPU Type Intel Pentium IIIE, 1000 MHz (7.5 x 133) Motherboard Chipset Intel Solano i815EP CPU FSB 133.32 MHz (original: 133...
