    Assassins Creed: Brotherhood problem

    Does anyone know of a way to increase the mouse sensitivity more than the settings will allow? Its too slow even when I set it at 10 for both the X and Y axis. Thanks in advance.

    Most realistic racing game?

    Nascar2003 was/is excellent. The recent ARCA sim racing game picked up where that left off and may be the best sim racing game out right now. It's just not well known. Read some reviews. http://www.asrseries.com/main/

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    While running under full load the cpu voltage was at 1.18 most of the time with the occasional 1.19 here and there.

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    I'\ve been using realtemp, cpuz and hwmonitor. My evga 750i mobo came with a small fan to connect to the fsb and I've done that. I've upped the voltage to 1.3v for the cpu fsb. I'm not sure how high I can go but from reading other posts from folks with similar mobo's and cpu's this seems to...

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    I've tried running it linked and unlinked but keep hitting a wall at 9 x 375, even when unlink and set the ram to stay at 800 mhz.

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    Well, I sent back the ram thinking it might be defective because it won't boot run okay with the ram's voltage settings, but I'm still seeing the same problem with the new ram. It won't boot all the way to windows if I go up with the voltage. Does this sound like a mobo problem?

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    This last time trying to oc from scratch I unlinked and left the ram at 800 and went up in 10 increments for the fsb. After hitting the wall at 375 I decided to test out just the ram by setting it at 1000 mhz and everything else at the default voltages except for memory at 2.0 and 2.1 while...

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    I started from scratch and I keep getting to a wall at 9 x 375 regardless of what I try for voltages. Prime95 locks up in a few seconds. I also tried MemTest and if I got error after error when I left everything at default and just set the ram to run at 1000 mhz with the mem voltage set at...

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    I tried realtemp and it shows cpu temp at 33 C for min and max, and that's even if I start up a game.

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    The repair utility couldn't fix the error that came up so I reinstalled vista. Everything is back up and running so now I'm back to trying to figure out my overclock problem. Any suggestions?

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    It does it right after it does the IDE search. I am running the repair utility on the vista dvd as I type this. Hopefully that does the trick. I would hate to have to reinstall vista.

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    Thanks for the reply. I tried raising the voltage to the 2.0 to 2.1 range in my early testing but had no luck up to a certain point. I then read a post from a guy who said he had to lower his voltage for his memory to get better overclocking. So I tried that and it actually did allow me...

    Need help oc'ing e8400

    From everything I've heard about the e8400's is that they oc well but I can't get past 3.45 booted and that is with a fair amount of adding voltages (see below). Am I doing something wrong or could it be a bad cpu to oc or could one of my other parts be bad? One unusally thing is that the...

    Back to back defective power supplies?

    Update: I tried the ps in my old P4 system (the one I'm currently on) and although the heatsink fan did spin for a second, it did nothing. The mobo light also was lit. I put the old ps back into that system and it started right up.
