Has anyone experiences the following? :
Tun OFF Gigabyte ATA controller
Turn ON AHCI mode for ICH10
Reboot
System functions normally EXCEPT I am not able to get back into Bios setting no matter how fast I try to press "Del" Key. Leaving me the only option of resetting Bios by shorting the pins...
I have a slight different question with regard to the P45 chipset. Intel has spec of 1.21v of absolute max voltage. However, I see a lot of people setting their MCH as high as 1.3~1.4 for FSB 450+ How safe is it to use voltage in that range?
Hi all, I got a quick question about the safe voltage for the P45 chip. The absolute max specified by intel is 1.21v, but people are using 1.3~1.4v when OC Quads. How safe it is using voltage in that range? It seems people are judging how safe it is by how well the motherboard is able to...
AMD would have been an awesome option if I am not into using Mac OS on my machine except it is my main OS atm and so I have to consider compatibilities when I purchase parts. My mobo altho an awesome board, doesn't play well with 45nm quad especially when considering overclocking. I actually...
Thinking of upgrading my current Dual Core system and I came across this combo deal Newegg offers, which is Q9550 + P5E Deluxe for $294.98 - 30MIR. It seems like a good deal since i still want to use my ddr2 ram. My main concern is the P5E deluxe board. Is it a reliable board? I am not able to...
One thing I love about the abit AW9D-MAX board I am using for the time being is the very flexible fan control options. For each fan I can select the temp sensor of interest (CPU, SYS, PWM, etc) to provide temp threshold. Anyone knows any other brand of boards have fan speed control that is as...
Hello everyone.
I just have a quick question on the motherboard's BIOS setting options. I am using the latest available BIOS version 1.7. I went into the CPU features section I saw option for C1E but EIST is nowhere to be seen. I am using E5300, which should have the speedstep feature. Those...

Hi guys, I am currently testing up my e5300 OC ((AW9D-Max mobo) at 3.84 with Prim 95 and I am having a Real Temp reading of 59C, which is not so bad I suppose. However, I am getting a motherboard cpu temp reading of 70ish. Whats the deal here? I have heard about faulty temp senors in wolfdale...
Yes they will replace you one for color uniformity issue, however they will only do it so many times before they get annoyed that after like 2 times the replacements (total of 4 monitors) the color issue is still not able to be solved. They went as far as telling me that my video card 8800GTS is...
Yes they will ask you what is wrong with it. For pixels, you would be better off lying to them that it is a bright pixel which is visible all the time even when screen is displaying black. Otherwise they would try not to replace you one ( at least that was what happened to me..). Ultra Sharp...
Well,if u get refurb, chances are you might get one of the 4 I sent back to Dell :P ... I would advice to wait... and then go for small business live chat sales.. if you are lucky, u'll get it for 200ish... which is only 20more than the refurb...
I got mine a week ago right before they drop the price to 279 - 40 instant saving through live chat. I simply asked if they have discount for 2209wa and i was offered with 192 x 2 + tax + freeship. so i say it might be still worth a shot to see if you can get discount. Be sure u talk to a small...
Just received mine a couple of days ago (192 x 2+tax+free ship). Great monitor for the price overall. Too bad they don't show the same color under the same setting, which i guess is normal for lcds. One question though, I noticed that there are pink tints on both lcds with each at different...
