So I dropped my ram from 999MHz to 895MHz, 10 minutes of gameplay no problems. I reset it back to 999MHz and it happened again, I also dropped my GPU down by 10% nothing changed on that end, still freezes on me. So what does that mean for me then? Do I need to run my ran clocked down ~10% all...

Hi all, Im having an issue with my system crashing/freezing/BSOD while playing any game. I was wondering what everyone may think is the problem. Im assuming its either my GPU or my PSU (system specs posted in my sig). First off let me give you a quick run down of whats going on. Ive...

Ahh, figured it out. Its kind of a partial embedding. You just need to quote the appropiate text, since text inside quotes dont count towards the max character limit.

Attachments wont work in this case.

If the feature were supported (I need it for a different forum) what would the code be?

as I said before if there is a character limit on a forum (which this one has 20,000 character limit) and your text in between the ...code... exceeds that limit you cannot post without taking out characters. What you are showing me is a way to embed text in a thread, not a text file. Im...

Wont work, the [ CODE ] [ /CODE ] command uses the character limit restrictions.

Im wondering whats the code to embed a text file in a thread like this, where the max character limit is exceeded and the file size is above the limit for attaching txt files. I dont want to make several posts to fit my text in a thread. I know theres a way to do it, Ive seen it done before...

ok thank you I get what you are saying, and now it makes better sense to me. So my question now would be which connection would be better to use? The Marvel connection or the Vintesse connection?

I have this board, and currently I am using a wireless connection in my house but I am going to switch to wired in upcoming week. So my question is simply this, the board has the Dual Gigabit LAN, what does this do for my network speeds, and do I bassically need to just connect 2 cat5/6...

I thought those jumpers were for front panel connections only??? Edit: it was the jumpers I thought they were on them allready but they werent.

I am not getting any sound out of the onboard audio controller on my Mobo listed in the title is not working... I have updated the BIOS, Chipset drivers, to the most recent updates on Abit-usa.com I connected my speakers to another computer and they work on there so I know its not the...

I have an external drive I want to use to switch between pc's and macs, and I know that the only format capable of doing that is FAT32. So my problem is XP has the 32GB limit, but I want to make my entire 160GB drive FAT32... Does any1 know any programs other than partition magic that are free...

just a quick question what kind of paint would be the best to use on the inside/outside metal of a case??? edit nvm found it sorry

well luckyly I got it to work with all my modules, all I did was switch around the matched pairs positions... ie. I took the modules from slots 1&3 and put them in slots 2&4, and same with the others from 2&4 I put in slots 1&3... very picky board thanks for all ur help guys, I was starting...

any1 have any ideas???

ok, I removed two of my matched sticks leaving me with 1GB of ram, and now my games work... so it is a memory problem, what can I do to use my full 2 GB of ram without it running in the same problems? I dont want to waste $100 on ram and not use it... do I need to change some bios settings...

should I remove a pair of my sticks leaving 2 slots free??? or could it be a problem with my psu not supplying enough power to the card??? its a 480W thermaltake silent purepower PSU and the +12V rail supplies 18 amps <--- is this not enough??? could there be a way to test to see if it is...

I have gone through 6 tests so far all have passed with no errors... I think we can count out my memory... any other suggestions???

ok, Ill run memtest... I will come back with the results

no the system doesnt crash at all after start up its, only when I try to run games... I actually had my system on over night last night and I woke up today its still on.

as it says in my sig, I have 2GB ram total 4x512Mb matched pairs. How would having 4 sticks of ram affect my video card?

bios update did not work, any other suggestions? This really sucks I upgraded my vid card and now I cant play any games w/out my system crashing...

do you know where I can download updates for it? its not on the dfi.com page

any other ideas??? would you think that I am not getting enough power to my card??? if so how could I test to see if it is my psu? I am pretty sure there is nothing wrong with my psu, it has been very reliable for me, and atm is the best psu I currently own

didnt work, same conditions as before...

ok, will run the ati uninstaller, and then install latest drivers again... you can mark one off the list though, I know its not overheating since the card is running at about 39-40 degrees celcius, which is fairly normal

I recently got a new upgraded system (in my sig) and I am having big problems with my vid card. All of my Vid cards have been ATI and I have been pleased with all of them, never having any problems, untill now... Just to clarify I have all recent driver/updates for my vid card, mobo, sound...

aha, thanks found it...

I have 2 sets of CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR400 Dual Channel kit, for a total of 2GB of ram. They are suppose to run at 400 MHz, but when I start up my system it shows that the memory speed is only at 333, and according to my NVIDIA nTUNE manager it is 333MHz as well when it should...

so when I get all my hardware drivers I should make sure to install the x64 versions? also I know as of right now most games dont use xp x64, and mostly Im using the upgraded rig for gaming... so my question on this is will the games that run on the 32 bit version of windows still run on the...

I just purchased a new 64 bit AMD 3700+ processor, and corresponding hardware(mobo,etc.) I was wondering on which OS I should use... Should I go ahead and buy windows Xp x64 edition? or stick with my current XP pro? Or should I have them both installed, and if so which should I install first?

well as of now, Im not gonna get into SLI, Im gonna wait a little longer till I upgrade to that, I dont think that right now its worth paying extra for SLI when you can get the almost same performance with a singe VGA card

k, thanks for the quick responses

as of right now which kind of interface is faster/more reliable just the overall better buy, AGP 4X/8X or PCI Express x16?

in your opionion what would be the best mobo for a 64 bit compatible processor. Lets use an Athalon 64 3500+ with a 1GHz FSB (socket 939). So thats the processor what mobo would you want to use for it. Criterias for the mobo: Reliable, User friendly ATX Form (no mini ATX) 1 AGP 8X/4X...

well re-seating the heatsink didnt work, I also did a CMOS reset before everytime I tried to start it up... So I guess it looks like Im gonna have to RMA it.
