Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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.
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...
