    Gosh dernit! Assistance required

    Also for the most part the newcastles are considered to be a bit better overclockers anyway. They are a newer core and have enhancements to the memory controller. Granted its not the newest those would be a winchester or a vinece or one of the other new cores which are considered to overclock...

    AMD A64 vs. Cell(PS3)

    Just a thought from reading but it would seem to me like possibly instead of seeing a CELL stuck on ur motherboard it would more likely end up being stuck on ur video card (or at least some variation of it). From what i picked up reading this thread it seems that the difference is how a task is...

    Winphlash and Epox 8RDA+ ?

    First thing I would try is taking everything apart and make sure all cards, cables and cords are seated correctly this includes RAM and CPU then after its all together I would CLEAR the CMOS and start it up and see if there is a prob. If that doesn't work I would reinstall the nForce drivers...

    Oh No! What did I do this time?

    Well I would try makin sure all your jumpers are set correctly first (double check) also i noticed that you have a WD hard drive if the DVD ROM is on the same IDE cable make sure there is a jumper on the drive if u moved the Hard Drive to another cable take the jumper completly off the drive...

    The Perfect Motherboard

    Well as far as P4 ECS boards we have had a bunch of those come into work with broken cpu hold downs.... so i would prolly just stick with that socket A havn't had any probs with those. BTW one of the boards that broke the cpu fried when the heat sink didn't come in contact wiht the cpu entirely...

    What's the Best Temp Monitoring Software?

    Actually Motherboard Monitor is still a very good program. I still use it on my rig in my sig. Even though they havn't updated it you can still select and change which monitors you use. Its just a matter of tweekin with it a bit. Give it a try!

    What have you slaughtered

    So far the only thing that I have killed is my Epox 8KRA2+ KT600 mobo when I was watercooling. I turned my chiller down a little to low and had a condensation problem on my vid card. Fried my motherboard but not the vid card .... this happened twice the first time everything worked fine...

    ASUS A8N is a POS!!!!

    I have gone through 2 A8N SLi Deluxe motherboards. I am on my third however once I have got this third board that has worked flawlessly I am quite happy. I am still using BIOS 1002 and have been able even get Win 64 working with total driver support. Everything has been stable. As far as...

    A8N-SLI Owners

    Personally to define what I think is the no POST problem. I went throught this problem on 2 motherboards and finally got my third which this has not happened to yet. To define what I think is the problem; there are 2 IC's (Integrated Circuts) towards the back of the board (On the front to the...

    Asus A8N-SLI Chip set replacement fan?

    Anybody have any idea about a waterblock to fit on this thing. Honestly I wouldn't even care if I had to epoxy it at this point. If I mix in enough Artic Silver in with the thermal epoxy I will be able to get it back off again. I like danger den's block but .... i can't find any demensions...

    A8N-SLI Owners

    I got the 64 bit sound drivers to install by updating the sound driver through the device manager. I just specified were it should search and it found it right away and installed it. In fact that was the only way that i could get most of the drivers for winxp 64 to install. but i wiped that...

    A8N-SLI Owners

    Thanks for the reply. I totally forgot about the fan needing to be plugged in for the board to POST im hoping that is not also the case for the CPU fan otherwise my watercooling dream is going down the tube ... esp since all of my fans draw to much power to be hooked up to my board. Thanks for...
