    Intel Matrix Storage Console information question.

    any possibility that the "Generation 1" (1.5Gb/s) drives are plugged into ports designated by the bios to not operate in "native mode"? I'd look at that first. Sometimes the first few ports operate in "legacy" (IDE) mode...

    Dell Latitude D600 RAM question

    you can also go up to a maximum of 2GB. There are two memory slots which accommodate up to 1GB each. Crucial's a great resource for solid memory modules which you can be certain will work with your system. Then again there are your standard e-tailers if you know what you're looking for such...

    Dell Latitude D600 RAM question

    I also have a D600 and it will only accept standard DDR SDRAM, not DDR2. You are right in that the maximum speed it will run at is PC2700 (DDR333).

    intel DP965LT motherboard??

    Yep, that Kingston pack is a great choice, used it a couple of times already and I have known for a long time that Kingston tends to be very good... I can't really comment on the Fortron PSUs though, if you're not too sure about your PSU, you usually can't go very wrong with an Antec, their...

    Should I do this or wait???

    so what kind of stuff are you doing with your computer, dude? For example, I like to play games and whatnot, but I also dabble a bit in Photoshop and spend a lot of time encoding audio and video. So, while it would be nice for me to upgrade from what I currently have, I don't really think I'd...

    intel DP965LT motherboard??

    can't really go wrong with any of the mainline Intel boards. I'm running a DG965WHMKR and it's rock solid; the only thing you might want to be concerned about really is that your power supply is plenty capable because bad power supplies can render an otherwise stable system "iffy", and make...

    CPU too hot, no PWM, what do I do?

    Yes, I downloaded corecenter, and it won't let me mess with the fan speeds; only the voltages. It will let me adjust what fan speed it has to get to so a heat warning alarm will go off though, and that's constantly going off...

    CPU too hot, no PWM, what do I do?

    I appreciate your efforts to help solve my problem. I was hoping I had an adapter on hand to take care of the 3 pin to 4 pin conversion, but apparently they aren't that common. (who wants to plug their PWM fan into a normal fan header anyway, besides me)? I think that fan mate controller only...

    CPU too hot, no PWM, what do I do?

    I also should probably note that this HSF was working fine on my previous Pentium D system, which used an entirely different motherboard+cpu. So, I know it works.

    CPU too hot, no PWM, what do I do?

    Yes I've got the latest BIOS (which is pretty old anyway)

    CPU too hot, no PWM, what do I do?

    Any chance I can get past this without doing any modding? Would a simple fan controller be enough? I'm kind of pressed for time, and patience :)

    CPU too hot, no PWM, what do I do?

    Not sure if this (OC & Cooling) is the right forum, but here goes nothing... I'm using a Pentium 4 520 (2.8GHz) on an MSI 865PE Neo3-F motherboard. I have an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 HSF installed on the CPU, and even so, this sucker is HOT. I mean, ok, I know it's a Prescott and everything...

    Time for a new pc, any recommendations?

    any chance it details installation in the manual that comes with the processor/motherboard?
