    GA-890GPA-UD3H rev2.1 -- USB ports not working

    Ok, so in using my roommates case, i neglected to see the extra case riser that was not over a screw hole. I didn't put it there myself obviously, so I didn't notice it. Conveniently... it was right behind where those USB ports are. Sooo, after ALL that, and symptoms that were incongruent...

    GA-890GPA-UD3H rev2.1 -- USB ports not working

    Ok this was ridiculous... but I finally got to the bottom of it.... I removed it from the case, booted it up, and all ports worked fine. Put it back in, and the ports stopped working again. So, it was shorting out, in the EXACT same way with two different boards, while taking the board out...

    GA-890GPA-UD3H rev2.1 -- USB ports not working

    So, first I updated the BIOS to the newest one, same issues. Downloaded USB 3 drivers separately, same issues. Next thing I did after all this was return the board to Amazon (next day replacement!). BUT... SAME PROBLEM. Absolutely ridiculous. So I'm going to Linux... I'm downloading...

    GA-890GPA-UD3H rev2.1 -- USB ports not working

    Ever since building the system 2 days ago, only the top 2 USB ports have worked (the ones next to the PS/2 port). The other 2 pairs (including the USB 3.0 ports) do not appear to work at all, even during bootup, so I'm inclined to believe this is not an operating system issue (I've tried kb...

    Cleaning up SharePoint site - got any tips? Sitemap?

    I'm tasked with cleaning up SharePoint site which is a mess of folders and subfolders everywhere (which I did not create, but now have to fix up). I'm looking for some tips here... trying to figure out the best way to see what the structure is... maybe a sitemap of some sorts? But, I didn't...

    Can I use a switch with ethernet over powerline?

    Thanks, just wanted to double check. I figured since it was 802.3 it was pretty standard and just another medium for the data transmission... but i read that they had some standard (to get better speeds, QoS, etc) called HomePlug. So I wasn't sure if this was something that may limit what can...

    Can I use a switch with ethernet over powerline?

    Due to a variety of factors, I think I will be going with ethernet over powerline. I found this Netgear product which seems pretty decent, favorable reviews, etc: Netgear XAVB101 However, I need to make sure I can put a switch on the end of one of these units so I can connect more than...

    Obtain DHCP IP, but no traffic ?!

    I've been having trouble at my school with the network since I got back in thier brand new dorm, and I suspect their network hardware is still not fully setup problerly yet. I have had trouble getting an IP, but was able to get one and everything was fine after release/renew... it's just that...

    Possible to set static IP if DHCP fails?

    Possible to set static IP if DHCP fails?

    Is it possible to have a static IP assigned if DHCP fails? Preferably on bootup, but in any case really. I ask because at my college, the network is very unstable for some reason in this new building, and upon rebooting, I always get a 169 address, its bizarre. If I release and renew...

    2nd TV with digital cable w/ Comcast

    Alright, so it looks like no digital cable through ATSC... but shouldn't I at least get some of the standard broadcast HD channels (i.e. FOX, ABC, NBC, etc) passing unencrypted, and thus be able to pick them up over the cable? I read something about this but it was very vague - something to the...

    2nd TV with digital cable w/ Comcast

    That's a hastle, because i'd also want it during the winter, and then id end up keep returning it and i think theres services fees and required installation charges and crap. Ultimately, I guess I'd be most happy to hear that a built in ATSC tuner will pick up everything i need (other than...

    2nd TV with digital cable w/ Comcast

    Hopefully this is the right forum to post in for this... I subscribe to digital cable through Comcast, and have a Scientific Atlantica Explorer 3250HD box (it doesnt have a cablecard in it or anything.. I guess im not subscribing to whatever would need it). Now, I want my second hdtv to have...

    Looking for an optical SPDIF backplate

    I have a DFI Lanparty UT nf3 250gb motherboard . In addition to coaxial in/out built in, it also has a connector for an optional optical SPDIF output (much like a lot of boards have connectors for irda, spidf, usb, etc). I need this connection for my receiver because I have no open coaxial...

    Cheap but decent heatsink for Athlon 64 (754)?

    Yeah thats a little more than I would like to spend. Also, was wondering if these came with thermal paste preapplied (I know the thermaltake one i posted does because i read a user review, not sure about others though). If not, whats a good paste to buy along with a heatsink, and are there good...
