I've been waiting for the "refreshed": version to be released in the US to upgrade my 36GB Raptor. I found the NCIX.com site a week or so ago and am just waiting till I see some comments on the site and the performance of those drives. It is a bit of a mystery though why it isn't in the states...

While there is a record button in Guide+, you will find a video recorder settings tab when you go into settings in TV (open TV and right click, select settings). By defualt there are already 4 settings for DVD, SCVD, etc... There is a button that allows you to copy and then change or create...

As a AIW 9800pro owner who lost their disc along time ago, you can download and install all needed software/drivers from ATI's website EXCEPT the DVD decoder which asks for the ATI disc. Just download the latest drivers and the latest multimedia center package. You'll have 99.5% of the...

I'm trying to get "max" overclocking from my system, but it seems my ATI AIW9800 Pro doesn't like it. I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (Winchester) Socket 939 2.0Ghz stock in a Gigabyte K8NS Ultra 939 mobo with 1GB Corsair XMS 3200C2 ram. I've used memtest86 and found the system to be stable...

After my first post, I went ot nivida's website and downloaded/installed the nforce 5.10 drivers.

Oops... Sorry bout that. Sanda is reporting my Raptor at 43-46MB/s and my old Maxtor ATA 7200rpm at 49-51MB/s

So I decieded to upgrade from Maxtor ATA 7200rpm to a WD Raptor WD360 10,000rpm. IMy Motherboard is a Gigabyte K8NS Ultra 939, and I have the SATA drive connected to the builtin nForce3 sata. After loading windows, I ran SiSoftware Sandra Lite 2005 filesystem benchmarks and my new supposed to...

Yes, after being advised to set AGP to 67mhz I did from my previous 66mhz. While the AIW9800pro has been around a while I just recently bought this card new in box. So I'm hoping someone here can direct me to a fix/workaround or a suitable replacement. But yes once I go past 223-ishX10 , I...

So I've tried a few different settings through out the day and its pretty clear that its my video ard, the ATI AIW 9800 Pro. Once I set it past 222X10 it exhibits too many errors to use the computer. So any suggestions to remedy (if possible) or on a replacement?

Well I've ran it for several hours using stock settings with so video card programs, oc'd a little bit and the problems return. Any ideas? or any suggestions on a OC compatible mid level video card?

The system seems to be fairly stable using the settings I posted above, but I'm getting video card errors reguarly now. "graphics card stopped responding to commands" type stuff. Any ideas on how to handle it / test to see what the exact problem is?

I'm now running with AGP set to 67mhz and the HT down to 4. I think the bios defaulted to 5 so I just had left it there. Thanks for the help, now up to 2359mhz, just have to make sure its stable. :) :)

I just upgraded from an Athlon XP 3200+ to a Winchester Athlon 64 3200+ and am having a hard time getting the best results and think I am have video card issues. . I have a Gigabyte K8NS Ultra 939 with the latest bios (f5). Using the following settings I can get it up to a max stable speed of...
