hey all, 2 questions... I purchased Sony XBR5 (overkill, I know), and I want to use HDMI because Vista MCE doesn't support 1080p over component cables. I currently have a 7600GT in the machine, but I want to swap that out for a card that has an HDMI output on it without the converter. I...

I am having the damnedest problem with my Media Pc. I have a set of Logitec Z-5500 speakers, and I am trying to run them off of my motherboard's on-board sound (Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe) using an optical SPDIF cable (rather than coax). When I run the Soundmax software setup wizard, I tell it that...

I'm having difficulty finding the memory voltage setting in the BIOS setup on my ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe. My system crashes pretty frequenly and I'm sure the voltage setting on the memory is the problem. I am using G-SKILL F2-6400CL4D-2GBPK which the vendor calls for the voltage to be between...

I think the general guidelines hey layed out above are excellent. I would make a couple of points: Intel's new Conroe chipset is prompting a price drop in AMD processors also. If you wait until mid-late august, you should see some great prices. Personally, I don't think you can beat...

Because that's SOP. And again, this was a recently rebuilt machine which had only had the latest nVidia drivers on it. My buddy tested both cards with his utils and they are both overheating. On both cards when he booted to bios he saw garbage on the screen (through DVI) even before running...

KK... Removed the BFG and placed in the PNY. Uninstalled the nVidia drivers, ran the driver cleaner, reinstalled nVidia drivers. Launched UT2004 and let it run all night - no crashes whatsoever. So... nix the driver issue (as stated previously, this was a recent rebuild and the machine...

Sorry, missed your sig. I will be exchanging one of my BFGs for my buddy's PNY tomorrow and see if mine is ok/his fails. I'll keep you all posted.

Ok, my account was finally generated. I am the one who is having this issue. Thanks to dennpett for letting me know about this forum and for posting for me. A few quick responses: This I am painfully aware of. There's a reason why EA doesn't have phone support... Bzzzz. Thanks for...
