    Intel BOXDX79SI help please

    I fixed the pins as soon as it came bac from newegg. I spent this weekend travelling around various computer tech service to find that they cannot open a CPU to help, and it's not a common enough CPU that they have one around. I ended up purchasing the 3930, reflashing the bios, and returning...

    Intel BOXDX79SI help please

    I'm in Raleigh, NC too if there happens to be anyone close by with another in the series of Sandy Bridge E /2011 CPU's that can lend a hand.

    Intel BOXDX79SI help please

    Hey guys, I've been sitting on this build for a while and I need some help to get it running. I have an Intel BOXDX79si that I've been trying to run with a i7 - 3820. Since the bios apparently doesn't support this CPU ( I discovered after building) I sent it back to the 'egg for a...

    Distributed computing software

    Depends on what software you are using. I use Fluent at work that is specifically designed and sold with the intention of stringing it across a cluster. If you are using something that's not designed for it then the simple answer is no, you can't, not really. There are a few things to...

    Disable unsigned drivers on Vista 64bit...

    This cmd line really does work. I have been using coretemp on a vista system at work and the only way I could get it to read is by disabling the driver signing and running as admin. Now it works like a champ and I never have to go back and redo the driver signing thing, it stays off for me...

    NEC / Optiarc (?) DVD/CD drive not working

    Thanks, I never noticed that tab... But if you go to the NEC site there are apparently no downloads for this drive. It's not even a part number series listed in their downloads section and the downloads portion of the individual part page only offers the manual....:confused: I have heard of...

    First gaming rig

    Sorry if I came across wrong. I didn't mean that the board was not good for OCing, just that I didn't know if it was. I was stating that since he isn't interested in it then he doesn't need to be concerned with the Bios options, which I don't know anything about on that board, and that it has...

    NEC / Optiarc (?) DVD/CD drive not working

    So I bought an NEC drive to put in my friend's Dell the other day. It's an OEM drive so it doesn't come with driver or documentation but I figured it would be plug N play like most every other drive I've encountered (maybe I've just been lucky....) and of course it was not. It's this one...

    First gaming rig

    I don't know much about that particular board but that chipset is pretty good. I have a couple intel boards at work that are running the 965 and they were pretty much plug and play (not that the chipset is everything but it is less problematic than any of the Nvidia stuff right now). If you're...

    Virtual PC questions, hardware and MAC add

    So I am running Vista at work now and we got a new piece of whiz-bang software that cost us lots of money and surprise, it doesn't support Vista and won't very soon :( So, I decided to be clever and run it through the Microsoft Virtual PC. It works *yay* but now I am having an additional...

    Ubuntu fails to display....?

    Nope, not even a start up screen. I don't think this is an issue where the box isn't outputting anything, it just seems to be driving the screen wrong, like the screen doesn't like the output. The note of "cannot display this mode" is a screen error. I can get it to work using the DVI output...
