What is Intel C-STATE tech under the CPU tab in the BIOS? I can see that option in my manual, but I can't find it in the BIOS. I have the P5Q Pro mobo with BIOS 1406. Did ASUS take that option out for that BIOS rev?

I have just tried it with a different outlet and power cable..still no go. And as for the power supply needing 850watts+, I don't think that's the case...because I ran through one of those power consumption tests from Antec, and 600+ would be plenty for my system. Also, I decided to yank...

Okay..so a little update...I have tried it with a new video card, and the random restarts still occur. Yesterday, I borrowed my friend's working crosair memory, and still it randomly restarts itself. So...as of now, I have exhausted a lot of the parts that could cause the problem. Here is what I...

I haven't solve the problem yet..have been ridiculously busy with school till this past week. I have gotten a new power supply and tried it out 2 days ago. It still does the same thing...restarting at random intervals. I tried to run Prime95, but it would die after 7-8hrs..and would start...

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking of the same thing. I have an old no brand P4 power supply that I know works. But on the motherboard there is a 6 port power plug (like a graphic card power plug), rather than the original P4 4 port plug. My question is would it be able to power up with only...

RAM : OCZ2G8004GK 4GB CPU : Q6600 (2.4 Ghz) Stock HSF, no overclocking Motherboard : ASUS P5Q Pro Video card : ATI AIW X1900 Power Supply : Antec Earthwatt 600w I had another thread in this forum, but I can't seem to locate it. Sorry if I placed it too many times. My computer has the...

Ok, I have tried resetting the CMOS using this method and it was a no go. I managed to get into once and I managed to update the Bios, but that still didn't fix the issue. Also I have played around reseating the ram at different dimms. Still stuck on the random reboots. Are there any other...

I am not able to get to the Windows XP boot screen at all. So, there is no F8 to be pushed, it would just restart right before it loads the IDE stuff.

My newly built system (probably 2 weeks old) is stuck in a infinite reboot loop. I ran prime95 and memtest86 when I first built it, and everything ran fine for 12hrs. Until yesterday the computer began to restart itself randomly. I have not installed anything new, or do I try to overclock it, so...

I just built a new rig and my Q6600 G0 stepping was sitting at 38, 37, 30, 33. Then I tried reseating the heatsink and applied Arctic MX-2 on there and now is idling at around 36, 35, 27, 33 with stock cooling. I heard that the hottest and coolest temps shouldn't have a difference of more than...

I have been out of this computer building scene for a while now. I was wondering if anyone could help and see if this configuration would work for a desktop computer. I am planning to use the following parts: 1) Mobo: Asus P5K-E 2) Mem: 2Gigs DDR2 5300 667mhz (have some of those lying...

Anyone!?!?

I currently own a Toshiba A100-JH2 laptop; less than a year old. Whenever I don't use it for a while, the screen saver comes on and then it will change into the black screen (kinda like if its put to sleep). When I try touch the mouse pad or hit keys on the keyboard, the screen doesn't seem to...

Recently I got a new computer case (Antec TX1050B) which came with a 500Watt SmartPower 2.0 power supply. This morning when I turned my computer on, I hear this really loud rattling noise and not know where it came from. Then I looked at the back and saw the power supply fan isn't moving...

How do you do that? Btw, I am using an Intel 865 motherboard..so I don't think it is the drivers that is causing this problem.

Tried it again today, defragged and nothing running in the background. I get the same result, buffer fluctuating like crazy

I own a Plextor PX-708a DVD burner. Just today I tried to burn several dvds, the buffer in the burner just fluctuates like nuts, going from 90% - 33% then to 50% -23%. And I have DMA turned on. So any help would be appreciated!

As stated, I have an AIW 9600Pro and currently trying to record some events from the Olympic games. The quality I get is very poor. I was wondering if there is anyway in enhacing the image through ATI's software, or is my card just messed up? The reason I said that is because from previous...

Where could you buy this card in Hong Kong? I have a buddy thats there right now...hoping you would be able to give me the address to purchase this. As it seems to be a very good price for a 6800. Btw....are you sure this card has 256 ram on it? or is this a card that you currently own? Thx...

Did u get this card off of ncix.com? BTW...how does the card overclock and how well does it do in Doom3?

Is this the Leadtek 6800NU you are refering to? http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=12376&vpn=299210C&manufacture=LEADTEK

What does Demirugs' tweak look like? Or does someone have a link to it?

Pentium 4 2.4ghz, 512 Ram.

I have tried the Humus tweak for Doom3, apparently no luck with it as my 9600pro wont give anything over 23fps during timedemo. Anyone know a way around this? Or is there something else I could do? BTW, I am currently using Ati 4.9b drivers. Any help is appreciated KSL

I tried this tweak on my 9600pro and it didn't change anything. The fps are the same as before. Anyone know why?

So which motherboard will give me more potential IC7 or IS7 or P4P800E?

After reading some of the replies, I looked at the Abit-IC7, listed at $166CND, which is roughly $40 more than IS7. May I ask why this board is so cheap, comparing it to Asus' Intel 875 boards, which are $200 and over. If I am getting this correctly, Intel 875 boards can hit higher overclocks?

No problem...don't need to be sorry :) Anyway thanks for the info. I am planning to build a new computer soon, so I just needed to do some research. BTW, what is your CPU running at right now since the vcore is kept quite low.

Papa-Ming, is this cpu on a 478 socket? What type of cooling are you using? Also, is the 270FSB overclock stable?

Currently I am looking at these two motherboards for a new P4 system. I am going to put a 2.8ghz (800FSB) processor in it. Which one of the two boards would have better overclocking potential?

Currently I have a choice of the cards named above (AIW 9700pro or AIW 9600pro), I can't really make up my mind as to what to purchase. Just needed a few suggestions. Thanks in advance KSL

Anyone know how to re-enable the bar at the bottom of IE, which shows the loading status of the webpage and the security of the page?

I am currently looking for a new case for my p4 system. I have a couple in mind, and am looking for suggestions. Here are what I have in mind: Thermaltake Xaser III VM3000A Skull Series Mid Tower Antec Performance One P160 Aluminum Super Mid Tower Antec Sonata Mid Tower Case (black) w/...

I have a PX-708A Plextor dual format dvd burner. Everytime I try to burn a cd, it keeps on giving me errors saying "Power Calibration error". I have read up on this error, and many have have said that its due to cheap media. But I am currently using maxell and verbatim, which both are quite...

Thats great, if you could give me a reply on that! thx, KSL

Just wondering if anyone has a chance to try or own the Coolermaster Jet 4, and would give me any comment on it, as I planned to get one in the next few days.

The temperature is quite cool, probably around 20-23C ish, as my computer is located in the basement. I have a window for my case, and it already has a hole in it...just straight from the position of the processor. So would it be best for me to add this fan (blowing outward) to the side...

Currently, my computer has 5 fans; two in the front blowing in air, two in the back blowing out air, and one on top of the case blowing out air. I don't really understand this, but my case is still at 90F. Any help wit this is greatly appreciated! KSL
