    Boot issues and video issue (definitely related)

    Bumping this to ask: I've bought myself a 260 GTX as a replacement for the 8800GTS (XFX replied confirming no warranty coverage on it) However, the desktop doesn't seem to be POSTing every time with no GPU in it, when it does it gives me a audio warning of no VGA output or something like...

    Boot issues and video issue (definitely related)

    Unfortunately for me I'm in Australia, and from a look around the XFX site I found what I believe to be the relevant warranty length for a 8 series card in Australia: WARRANTY PERIOD: XFX warranties hardware Product for a period of two (2) years. So from Dec 2006 purchase I guess I'm out of...

    Boot issues and video issue (definitely related)

    It's a XFX 8800GTS 640MB that I got within a week of launch... Not sure if it's still within warranty. I'll check on that. Other hardware by the way is: Athlon X2 4200+ ASUS A8N-SLI Premium (nForce 4, Socket 939) Antec NeoHE 500W 4x1GB of DDR400 CPU was on a 10% overclock until...

    Boot issues and video issue (definitely related)

    Last few days I've been having trouble booting, it's been freezing sometime during when it's powering up devices, all fans have been spun up at this point (including GPU) and hard drives seem active, but it just stops. Takes me ~5 goes with no real trick before I can get it to boot. Once it's...

    10 Easter Eggs in Action

    I like that they decided emacs was a Mac easter egg. And I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple of other games in emacs too - depends how it was compiled though I believe.

    Just ordered the Dell UltraSharp 2209WA

    Bought one of these last week, got here yesterday. Love it so far - but a bit of backlight bleed in bottom left corner (Only notice it with a black screen or playing a dark game such as Thief). One question, I'm on the Win7 beta, and I tried adding 10e's colour profile...

    Windows Vista Ultimate 64 OEM: Is it possible to clone/migrate?

    As I found out the other day, if you go to the Backup and Restore Center in Vista Business, Enterprise or Ultimate, you can do a "Complete PC backup" which is pretty much a image of the OS drive that can then be loaded (completely overwriting) a new installation you make - restoring through the...

    FTP/NAS Atom build

    Thanks for the replies, Thanks for the tip, the NSK4480 is $40AUD cheaper and a larger case, I don't really need the smaller case, going to live under corner of my desk or in a cupboard. Only comes with one 120mm fan - but that should still be sufficient for such a low power system I'm...
