    IT Resume Thread

    Hey all, I am looking for some help with updating my resume. I have spent the last 2 years working as a Support Specialist for a large corporation. This was a job that I viewed as a "foot in the door". Now I feel like making the transition from a 2nd level support environment to a more...

    Did I short out my board?

    I took my Intel Asus board and put it into a new case. I didnt realize there was one too many standoffs and my PC kept booting up and then shutting down 15 secs later. I suspected a short and there it was so I removed the extra standoff and triple checked that I had only the necessary standoffs...

    Do I have a bad stick?

    Well luckily enough I found another PC to try it on. That PC would not boot up with this stick in it. Granted I had two other mems in slots 2 and 3 but it wouldnt even post. No beeps or anything.

    Do I have a bad stick?

    I think its showing here as "1T/2T memory timing" If thats the case then its at 2T now and I upped the voltage to 2.7 and it still wouldnt boot. I can update the BIOS now. edit: BIOS 1009 I can also now run with the one good stick in other slots. I am unable to get it to work with this one...

    Do I have a bad stick?

    Having a hard time finding the command rate in BIOS. I can see Tcl, Tras, Trcd, Trp, Trc, Trfc, Trwt, Twr, and then Memory Timing

    Do I have a bad stick?

    I am runnin an Asus A8N SLI Premium at the moment. Memory is G.Skill 2x1GB PC3200PHU2-2GBNS The board wont boot with both installed in 1&3 or 2&4. The board will boot with 1 stick in slot 3, but it will not boot with the other stick in the same slot. Now I would guess this means I have a...

    A8N SLI Premium wont boot ... what gives?

    Actually I am fairly certain this is the mobo that is giving me grief. I read the negative reviews before but took a chance on Asus. The amount of reviews I see that explain issues with memory combatability is scary. For some reason only certain memory works and most of the time it only works in...

    A8N SLI Premium wont boot ... what gives?

    it looks like I have a bad stick. I tried one in slot 3 and it works. I tried the other by itself in slot 3 and it doesnt work. Does it take a long time to RMA something and have a replacement shipped to you??

    A8N SLI Premium wont boot ... what gives?

    Its not working. I tried them both in 1&3 and then 2&4, but still getting the beeps. I also tried just a single stick in the 3rd slot but no luck there either. I have an older pair of 2x1 PC4200 sticks. I wonder if they are worth a shot.

    A8N SLI Premium wont boot ... what gives?

    I finally finished building this machine and I cant get it to boot. It gives me 1 long beep followed by 2 short beeps. Apparently this is a video problem, but neither my 7800GT or my 6600GT work so I doubt its my card. I cant get video to display whatsoever. I made a mistake when I first...

    Dlink 4300 + Gamefuel + Wow = Im confused.

    Theres an easy way to that as well ... logon to your normal WoW server (or any server for that matter). While you are playing use another computer or alt-tab out to access 192.168.0.1. I believe the last option on the very first page will be Active Sessions. Click on that. There will be a...

    G.Skill PC3200 - any thoughts?

    I am going to be buying an Asus A8N Premium and a 3700+ San Diego. I am a big gamer and want to make sure I have decent ram to go with it.

    G.Skill PC3200 - any thoughts?

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231047 I've read through many of the threads here but havent seen much talk about the G.Skill ram. Are these any good? I dont need something for major overclocking, but something that has the ability for some minor OCing would be nice.

    upgrading to 3700+, which mobo is best?

    I'd like some OCing abilities but nothing too extravagant. At this point I just want a board that isnt going to crash on me alot or cause blue screens. I am pretty PC savvy so I am not worried about complicated BIOS settings, but something that I can setup once and never touch ever again would...

    upgrading to 3700+, which mobo is best?

    I've narrowed it down, but to be honest I am not sure which mobo to get with my new 3700+ SD. I am trying to decide between: Asus A8N Premium DFI Lanparty nF4 - DR Gigabyte GA-K8N It seems like each board has great reviews but there are still people saying its DOA, fans stop working...
