    8800GTX IRQ conflict with soundcard

    I have a P5B Deluxe. I don't recall seeing anywhere to change IRQ assignments. I have the ability to change IRQ 0-15 from PCI Slot to Reserved, but my video and sound card assigned to virtual IRQs and have no way to know which real IRQ they are on. If there is another area of BIOS you are...

    8800GTX IRQ conflict with soundcard

    Hello, I have a EVGA 8800GTX and an M-Audio Delta Audiophile 24/96 sound card. Whenever I attempt to play Flight Simulator X, or play music in iTunes, my audio pops and clicks due to my video card sharing the same IRQ. I have gone to great lengths to get them on different IRQs. I've: 1)...

    LG L246W

    I bought this monitor a week ago. My previous monitor was a 17" Samtron CRT, so this was quite an upgrade for me! After using it for a week, I am extremely impressed. I have played a lot of Half Life 2, Team Fortress 2 and such and have noticed absolutely no ghosting at all (this was my...

    LG L246W

    Is there any difference between the L246W and the L246WP-BN? All the stores have the latter one.

    Do I need to loosen memory timings?

    Thank you for your advice, you were very helpful. I ran Memtest86+ v. 1.70 for three passes at 2.0V, and 10 passes at 2.1V. The settings were at 802MHz, 5-5-5-12. No errors. Very interesting. I can assume, then, that the memory is not the problem. My Vcore is 1.375. With Vdroop it drops...

    Random lockups with 8800GTX -- heat problem?

    I had a discussion with my roommate about my problem -- he mentioned a memory problem as well. I may have to RMA this card to Newegg. My power supply is a Corsair 520HX. I'm only running a 8800GTX and two hard drives, so I should be OK. If anyone has any other input, that would be great.

    Random lockups with 8800GTX -- heat problem?

    Hi, I just bought and installed a new EVGA 8800GTX. It's working great, except occasionally my screen will go black and reboot itself in the middle of Half Life 2 and Half Life 2 Lost Coast. I felt the grill of the video card at the back and it was very hot, and when I booted back up I ran...

    10,000rpm faster despite being 1.5Gb/s?

    Hello, I have a question... I'm building a new PC, and was considering a 74gb Raptor for my operating system and games (I can only buy one right now, planning on adding another 74gb later). I'm having a hard time seeing how a 10,000rpm drive at 1.5Gb/s SATA is faster than a 7200rpm...
