    Serious Graphics Issues on GTX580

    Hello everyone, and thank you all for your replies. I apologize for being so late in updating, but due to work and school it can be sometimes difficult to have a moment of free time when I'm not dead asleep. With regard to my aforementioned issues, ever since my last update there have been no...

    Serious Graphics Issues on GTX580

    Thanks for your reply. I use Precision on a regular basis for just that concern. Not to mention, the room the machine's in is freezing cold. Update: After posting the OP last night, I shut the machine off and went to bed. This afternoon I get back in, and turn it on expecting to continue...

    Serious Graphics Issues on GTX580

    Intro: Okay, so I recently put together a new build, everything worked fine and it was glorious. It works great for roughly two weeks, and then all of a sudden I'm having serious graphical glitches and "Display Driver Stopped Working.....Recovered" error messages. Problem: I used to be...

    Adding more ethernet ports to a router

    Sorry, I had a slip of the tongue there. I realize that hub's are horrible. I meant switch. Just bought a 5-port one from newegg for $5 after rebate. Gotta love newegg.

    Adding more ethernet ports to a router

    Is there a more convenient way to expand the number of wired ports one has on a wired network? I know that a quick solution is to wire two routers together and disable the DCHP on the second, but would doing something like wiring a 4 or 5 port ethernet hub to the router work as well?

    Temp increase, unsure why.

    I'll check by tomorrow, but I know that my usual speeds while overclocked idled around the 40s. 1) I'll definitely give everything a once-over inside the case. 2) They're just part of a raid storage array, but as this is my first experiment with RAID and there's already a fair amount of...

    Temp increase, unsure why.

    I just took a can of air to the case and while it was a little dusty, there wasn't a whole assload of it, nor was there a sizeable decrease in temps. I'd consider reseating the cpu fan but the last time I did it was...oh, this march? And I use AS5 (properly, mind you, not the way they suggest...

    Temp increase, unsure why.

    To be honest I don't think so. I've a 950W psu which can peak at 1050ish for about 15sec. (From the label, anyway.) It's been happening at different times while the computer was doing different things. Once, it was during an install of a game. Another two times was while I was playing some...

    Temp increase, unsure why.

    Lately i've been having weird crashes. Power just shuts off. I decided to check my CPU and GPU temps, because it was something I hadn't checked in a while. Now, I know that Core Temp can be inaccurate, and I understand this. However when my old readings were in the 40s and I'm now getting...

    Help! Raid 0 (striping) Missing an entire drive

    Okay, so I used diskmgmt.msc and as it opened it pretty much asked whether or not I wanted MBR or GPT. Thanks for all your help, man. Now to start using this array, haha.

    Help! Raid 0 (striping) Missing an entire drive

    So then I'll just use the smaller drive to boot with. Is formatting the array to GPT simple to do?

    Help! Raid 0 (striping) Missing an entire drive

    Aww. You left. Anyone else around to give a guy a hand?

    Help! Raid 0 (striping) Missing an entire drive

    Then would you recommend I boot off a smaller drive and use the RAID array for storage? As in, make the array non-bootable?

    Help! Raid 0 (striping) Missing an entire drive

    Mathematically, If all of the drives are still being used, then this means that each drive is running at about 667gb. This makes no sense. Where did the 233 GB per drive disappear to?
