    Wierd graphics quality after ATI -> Nvidia upgrade

    Put the x1950 pro back in and all of the problems went away. I'd like to think I just had a bad card, so I'll probably have it replaced and try again. I'm having a hard time believing that my card was typical of Nvidia performance.

    I'm using dual Westinghouse L2410nm 24" lcd displays with dvi-i to hdmi converters. Everything is running a native resolutions and Cleartype enabled. Nothing has changed except the video card and drivers.

    Wierd graphics quality after ATI -> Nvidia upgrade

    Just upgraded my Vista system from an x1950 pro to an Nvidia 9600GT; I'm thrilled with the speed, but the text quality in applications seems to have completely fallen apart. I can't tell exactly what's happening, but instead of nice smooth text, everything is "blotchy." It's almost like the...

    Help with Bad Axe 2 and cpu fan speed?

    Help. I have an Intel Bad Axe 2 w/ E4300, Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro, and Windows Vista 32. The e4300 is moderately overclocked (2.3ghz) and I'd like to reduce the CPU fan speed (to ~1200rpm) in order to minimize noise. Right now the fan runs at a constant 34 degrees and 2140 rpm unless I...

    Intel Bad Axe 2 and CPU fan speed?

    Are you sure your CPU fan is capable of being controlled by the BIOS? IDCC works fine for me under XP, my problem is that IDCC isn't compatible with Vista.

    Intel Bad Axe 2 - Does it control fan RPM well?

    I have a Bad Axe 2 / E4300 (stock) with a Freezer 7 Pro. The CPU fan always runs at ~2100 RPM and since IDCC doesn't run under Vista I haven't been able tweak anything. That's too bad because, as it stands now, the fan is way too loud.

    e4300 making me dislike intel

    I have a D975XBX2 with e4300. Anything >265 won't POST, stable as a rock at 265 w/ stock voltages. That's E6600 performance for <$150 with no effort ... I'm happy.

    Thanks for the tip. IDCC will install now, but it won't run ... "error on initialization."

    Bad Axe 2 and Vista

    The Desktop Control Center doesn't work. Intel has a Vista-compatible version in development, but doesn't have an estimated release date; I haven't tried the other apps. Here's a list of the Vista-support apps on Intel's site.

    Intel Desktop Control Center for Vista?

    I finally got an answer from Intel ... it's in development but there's no projected release date. For now I wouldn't (couldn't) use this MB if you want to overclock and use Vista.

    Intel Desktop Control Center for Vista?

    Has anyone heard anything about a Vista-compatible version of Intel's Desktop Control Center for the Bad Axe 2? I upgraded my D975XBX2 system to Vista this weekend and this, along with a few other items, doesn't seem to work. I'd be willing to settle for another application if anyone has...
