I just upgraded my RAID5 from a rocketraid 1640 and 3 Seagate 400gb drives to 4 WD (blue) 640gb drives on a rocketraid 1740. This is my problem. One of the drives is only seen as SATA 150. 3 are seen as SATA II like they should be, but one will not get mounted as SATA II no matter what I do...

Basically, I have searched and come up with various reports saying that ATI finally supports the cards, and some reports saying that special drivers are still required. I want to end all this confusion with a straight up question to the experts. I have been out of the loop for a while in the...

I want to buy the updated copper 7800GS cooler from anyone that has this card and is not using the stock cooler anymore. I hope there is someone out there that has it laying around after setting up watercooling or something... Here is an image of what I am talking about.

I want to buy the updated copper 7800GS cooler from anyone that has this card and is not using the stock cooler anymore. I hope there is someone out there that has it laying around after setting up watercooling or something... anyway, it looks like this...

I want to know if the 7600gs uses the same g73 as the gt... as in no disabled pipelines. I am considering a new card for an AGP system. I know the 7800gs and the 7600gt run neck and neck... however, if the 7600gs is not crippled (as in only clockspeed lowered) it would also be attractive. Are...

Ok... This is between the two common variations of AMD heatpipe stock coolers. This one? ----- Or this one? I know people say the newer design is better, but I know that some newer AMD CPUs are being shipped with the older design... so I am curious what you guys think?

Do any of you guys run your card with a CRT monitor? I bought the visiontek card a couple weeks ago and had to return it because of the horrible ghosting/smearing/reflecting I got on my 21" NEC CRT. Now, I have since heard that some cards have a problem with that particular monitor... and I...

I have tried (or my gf has)... World of Warcraft, EVE online, EQ, EQ2, SWG, FlyFF... I had spent some time in secondlfe (though I am not proud), and seen sims online. Ok... Remember Ultima Online? Here is my question... Do people still play it? Ultima Online is the type of MMO I am looking...

Ok, I am having trouble finding a working port forwarding/triggering setting for my router. My GF uses alot of BT on her machine and it is behind my router not in DMZ. Now I have tried forwarding a single port and also a range of ports and it makes no difference she is getting firewalled...

That is the question I am asking. I "inherited" an original xbox recently. I picked up some great used games at the game store... I see that alot of games have xbox live content, and many of them look like alot of fun. How many people using xbox live are on the original system? Is it easy...

I need to know how to merge certain .reg files to a registry hive(s) that is not the one I am booting with. basically... I borked my registry and cannot boot... however I have a backup of what was deleted in a couple .reg files. I want to know how I can merge that stuff back into the...

Ok, one of the things that has always bothered me about the 7800GS is the fact that there are no aftermarket cooling options that fit the card's non-standard HS mounting. I want to know if, on the 7600GT, does it support standard aftermarket mounting? Is this card more like the 6600GT, in...

I had a neopower480, and it was fine until I upgraded some stuff... I was using some of the molex snapins to give me 5 and 7v on one cable... and I didn't want to reroute everything else, so I bought a neoHE550... it's a good supply, but THE STUPID MODULAR CABLES aren't cross compatable! I...

I need an SATA 2 controller card... it needs to be PCI and supports windows x64. I only know of this one http://www.siig.com/product.asp?catid=7&pid=1043 and I don't think there are 64bit drivers for it. What other brands do you think I should check out? There must be some card that has...

ok, I run xp64 and I would like to get this hotfix described here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/924054/ The problem is, there is no direct link to the file... and it seems to be asking me to contact MS... and by phone or e-mail it's 35 dollars! I am not sure what to do... I want this...

I am selling this for ~$300 plus shipping... or make an offer. I am moving and want to sell it, so just shoot me a PM. It was used with care, no scratches, and has a small stuck sub pixel that is only seen with certain colors on the screen. You get the DVI cable with it, if I find a VGA one I...

I figure this was a good question for modders. I got a few with my antec neopwer480, they can add extra 4 pin connectors along any cable via a simple snap splice-in. I need to get a new PSU, and the good ones these days don't have enough 4pin connections, I know I can use y adapters, but...

Microsoft's vista upgrade matrix: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060730-7384.html Upgrading from windows 2000 to XP was fairly simple I remember... I run xp64 right now and according to the matrix, I cannot upgrade to any version of vista. However, the matrix does not list...

I bought a 7800gs AGP card from evga, I noticed that it would not work with aftermarket heatsinks... I had a shiny new zalman vf900 and nowhere to install it. There were other issues... things that bother someone with OCD, but not most people. I decided that I would have rather had a...

they require their game CDs to be in the cdrom drive to play. All the content is installed on my harddrive, yet I have to keep the games cds out on my desk... just cluttering up... getting scratched... ect... I have to pointlessly insert one to play a game. why? this is the most pointless...

I am looking for a high rez laser mouse... I want the latest optical tech here... but without all the extra crap... just two normal buttons and a scroll wheel in the middle. no side buttons... no crazy new age ergonomic design... no melted plastic styling (looking at you logitech)... none of...

ok... I cannot get any server lists in doom3, quake4, and quake3... been like this all day... www.idsoftware.com is also down it appears to me. Anyone else effected?

ok, I had TWO nvidia cards die on me this weekend, and I was walking through microcenter and saw an x850pro AGP for $116... no annoying rebates either. ok, so I don't think I can unlock the extra pipe quad... I read that vivo cards can do it, but this has vivo and cannot. if there is...

well I traded with a guy for a 6800ultra, and I get the card... it is not packed well... the card had no padding and the box barely fit the card. next, I spend two days trying to get it to work... and eventually it won't even boot at all. the card is DOA, basically. it is a BFG, so I think...

:confused: ok I can't figure this one out... I have a athlonXP mobile 2600 on a dfi nf2 ultra B... windowsXP pro. I don't know what bios rev. I can find that out later, though, when I can restart it. RAM is good, and the system passes prime95 for days... BUT F@H 5.03 crashes after about...

EDIT: OK guys, I found a trader and the card is going out tonight in the mail... thankyou for your consideration. ok, this is a weird trade, but I would be willing to trade my evga 7800gs (almost brand new) for an AGP 6800ultra (BFG) in good condition. 7800gs is all stock... fastest AGP...

going to try and get one from in town, but thankyou for all your offers.

ok the zalman 700 and 900 videocard coolers do not fit this thing... the mounting holes are in different locations, and for that I think I can easily mod the 700 to fit over the core... so that is not so much of an issue. but! there are 4 wires in use from the fan header... and they are...

fucking rocks... I had some broken parts on my p180, but I don't have my reciept or original box... I e-mailed antec about purchasing certain specific parts... and instead of telling me how much it was going to cost (or that they don't sell parts), they asked for my address and sent off the...

I drove to directron and bought a vf900-cu. I have been waiting for this thing to come out for a while... ok, this thing has quality written all over it. it is extremely well built, the mounting hardware is extremely secure and well thought out (moreso then even the vf700). The...

alright, do you guys have to be very careful when taking off the side panel or you might break off one of the plastic hooks? (particularly the bottom ones) I have broken 2 of them and had to employ some adhesive to reattach. luckily, the adhesive is just as strong as the original plastic. (or...

ok, these sticks are barely used... they are 3 4 4 10 but work comfortably at 3 3 3 8 at 250mhz, so I know there is room to grow. Be advised, however, ballistix modules are very picky about motherboard and chipset so don't buy 'em if you aren't completely sure they will work on your board...

Alright, right now I have an AGP system and a 6800GT that I run as a quadroFX 4000... Any real quadro on the PCIe bus that would be an upgrade from the FX4000 is way out of my budget. I game though too... FEAR, CS:S, Quake4, and some MMOs... this is where I feel the age of my 6800/FX4000...

I would like to turn on cool n quiet. I have turned it on in the bios, installed the driver in windows x64, and I have set ACPI 2.0 in my bios. still nothing happens. clock speeds do not change at all even with 0% cpu usage. any ideas? I have x2 3800+ on an asus a8v deluxe 2.0...

ok... I need to find a mouse that has 3 buttons AND a scroll wheel. I do not want one where the scroll wheel is meant to be the 3rd button. I need 3 actual buttons and also a scroll wheel (and if that happens to be a button that is ok I guess) There is some software I use that really...

I want to turn on the "heat haze" explosion shader effects like you see in doom3. Is this possible? did they just remove it completely from q4? What is the command for my .cfg to turn this effect on. I have all the quality options set to max but I do not see this effect!

I am selling my barely used 3700+ newark. It overclocks well and has a good rev. E memory controller. This is about the best chip you can buy for the s754 platform. Stock speed is 2.4ghz and stock voltage is like 1.2v or maybe even less. 90nm rev. E "newark" core. Chip is stock...

Where would I go to get an official nvidia case badge? Do I contact nvidia? Are there resellers?
