    ASUS P5DG2 - IDE problems!

    Thanks. Are you a member of Experts-Exchange, the big IT forum? Because if you are not join up and I'll give you some points!! I think I set all the stuff in the main BIOS - but I missed the JBOD thing.

    ASUS P5DG2 - IDE problems!

    Thanks. Starting to make sense now finally! Yes - DVD on the PRI1, HDD on PRI_RAID1. Actually I have two HDDs: One on PRI_RAID1 and the other on SEC_RAID1. I don't want to use the RAID capability on these. One HDD will be for the OS and software installation, the other HDD will be a...

    ASUS P5DG2 - IDE problems!

    Thanks, but it doesn't work on these mobos. The secondary IDE controller is missing - and it seems to be like this on other ASUS boards in the series (P5GD series). This is something to do with IDE configuration on these boards. It's stupid. On the mobo, there are three 40 pin ATA IDE...

    ASUS P5DG2 - IDE problems!

    I can't get the IDE devices set up right on this mobo - ASUS P5DG2 "deluxe". I have two IDE devices: A DVD and Samsung HDD. I don't know if this the way it should be, but on the Main Bios Screen, there is list of drives beginning with a Primary IDE Master & Slave, but then it jumps to the...

    Windows XP 64bit freezes on install

    I wasn't sure about the memory so I asked in the shop and they said this was the kind I needed. It's just a load of numbers on the module - means not much to me. Not like the old days when clock speed was the only issue. Anyway, I just checked on ASUS website by looking at memory QVL. I...

    High Operating Temp - Why?

    Looks like it's nothing to worry about then. Is it worth trying a different thermal grease (like that silver stuff)?

    What temp should I expect this CPU to run at?

    What temp should I expect this CPU to run at? P4 640 (3.2GHz 64-bit) It's idling at 47/48C. Sounds high. What should I be aiming for? Can thermal grease be applied too thickly? Perhaps it can act as an insulator if too thick? May be I'm thick too.

    Hardware advice for 64-bit XP

    Ok thanks. Then the "32-bit" suffix on the SoundBlaster Live! is nothing to do with it then?

    Windows 2003 VPN access issue

    Well, it was a while ago. In the end we got rid of it and bought a proper firewall. SJ Consultant. There's another kind of connection one can do with Windows 2003, that we had to do once before we configured the CISCO. It was like a VPN connection but it required someone standing at the...

    Hardware advice for 64-bit XP

    Hi Can someone recommend a soundcard to use with XP 64-bit? I guess the SoundBlaster Live! 32-bit is a not compatible? I have an nVidia 6600 for video card. Is this compatible or do I need an upgrade? Everything else is on the mobo so it should all work fine. Jason
