    Up until very recently I had been using a Leadtek Nvidia 7600 GT - truly excellent product, as was my previous Leadtek 6600GT.

    XP looking for floppy...

    It just does it for 1-2 seconds when XP starts and then stops and never does it again. It's not like I have to do something for it stop.

    XP looking for floppy...

    Hey all, My WinXP 32 SP3 has been irking me a bit lately. After it boots and it starts loading the desktop and NOD32, it tries to access the floppy drive. I can hear the floppy head move once or twice, and then it goes off. Any clue what XP might be searching the floppy for? I thought it...

    AMD X7750 Black Edition and memory frequency- 1066 or 800?

    Hey daytripper, Thanks for the information. I finally went with the Kingston 800MHz as I did not wish to take any chances and initially I will only be overclocking mildly by simply adjusting the multiplier. I will consider an upgrade later down the road. Thankfully modern RAM isn't that...

    AMD X7750 Black Edition and memory frequency- 1066 or 800?

    I searched a bit and there's some information here already. I'm not sure, I tend to think 800 would be OK since I won't be bothering with the FSB frequency, plus it consumes less power (I believe so, at least). But on the other hand, 1066 could give nice headroom and may help if I get my...

    Hello all, As I'm planning to build a system with an Asus M3A78 and an AMD Athlon X2 7750 (2.7, Dual Core, Black Edition), I would like to ask for some input about what memory I should use. I plan on overclocking the processor but as it has an unlocked multiplier I understand I can simply...

    MSI's specs are here: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodmbspec&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=&cat3_no=&prod_no=1431#menu Chipset is 770/SB600 whereas the Asus comes with 770/SB700 which I would guess is a better combination?
