When I was in highschool, the school disabled the USB ports on the good ole Pentium 2 Dell GX computers. In order to print for free at school, I would literally load up hundreds of pages of files to print on floppy discs. That was truly the last time I ever really used one, and that was 3 yrs...

I have that same Pentium Pro motherboard/cpu combination. My VRM header went missing, do you know what the part number of yours is? K-TRON

Well, over the last few months I had some issues with my TYAN N6650W motherboard. It finally gave out on me yesterday. It was just sitting there running world community grid. It was on ita 9th day up and running 100% on all 8 cores. Peak temperature as of an hour before the crash was 113F. I...

Ive got a pretty large collection of Papst fans ranging back to there first fan batch made by System Papst in West-Germany back in 1964 :D If you dont sell those papsts, I may be interested. I have to see if I already have them in my collection :cool: K-TRON

What the heck is a SAS expander? Do you plug a sas cable from the main card into the expander, and than you get the extra ports which are on the expander? I am sure something like that would overload my whimpy Perc5 sas card. That areca is a beast K-TRON

I was lured in by "High-Quality Fans" - we arent on the same page in that category. No Papst Bump anyways K-TRON

That is odd, On only one of many memory RMA's have I received different memory in return. That was with Kingston, I received a slightly newer version of my memory. Didnt have any problems, and worked fine out of the box. Sounds like there was a misinterpretation with your RMA. Sounds like they...

Bump for more than a great seller K-TRON

Umm, that is true. I sent the memory to Josh (Sabregen). I told him about the card which I fixed, and he tested it anyways. All 8 memory cards ended up being completely fine. He tested them on his supermicro system, and ran memtest on the cards. Surprisingly no errors were found on any of the...

I used to get a cpu mismatch error on my ASUS L1N64, The solution was hardware not software. I found out that some of the pins in the second LGA socket were not touching the processor. With a pair of tweezers and the blunt end of an X-ACTO blade, I carefully repositioned a few pins which were...

I do not think that is risky at all. I have played frisbee with memory and it still works afterwards. I received results back on the memory test. Josh (sabregen) tested all 8 memory cards for me. All worked flawlessly for a 2hr memory test. I am so happy they are not dead. I am going to...

I tried them in my Tyan motherboard, and when it occassionally gets into the BIOS it fails to boot after I save and exit. I have tried putting my Kingston memory cards in, disabling ecc shutting down, than installing the micron memory. Nothing seems to get them to work. I have them boxed up...
