    Tea on a Motherboard. Assistance?

    Always wondered if the CMOS battery should be removed asap and during cleaning/drying? Isn't at least part of the mobo energized while the battery is attached??:confused:

    Need help troubleshooting

    Off the wall things to check... On/Off switch might be sticking PSU might be on the way out CPU fan might be spinning too slowly (it IS spinning?) Hard drive might be dying (run diagnostic if possible or check in another system) Look at capacitors...any of them leaking, crusty, or puffy?

    Holy crap, it worked! Dead video card, resurrected!

    I tried this with an old Socket 754 motherboard. After about 5 minutes at 380 degrees, the capacitors started exploding like popcorn. One actually blew itself off the board. Needless to say, that board is now "fixed".

    Got the 2 CPUs today. The 1.0 Ghz works great in my little Compaq system. The 1.13 doesn't seem to want to work but I think it is because the mobo won't support it. I'm going to do some further checking on compatibility but the board is so old that info is scarce. Thanks for the smooth...

    Protection using a wireless router

    So deadman, what they are telling you is ANY kind of router, with ANY kind of password, and ANY kind of protection (be it WEP, WPA or ABC) is better than what you have now. Get something, hook it up (per the manual), and move on!

    Overclocking Help (AMD 64x2 3800+)

    I've got two X2 3800+ chips on two different boards (Asrock SataII & Epox m-ATX) and both do 2.6 easily. To be honest, I don't run them over 2.2 because I'm interested in stability, low heat, and low noise. Running at 2.6 seemed a little snappier but, for what I do, I saw no great benefit. The...
