Hey guys, as a long-term oldschool 3DFX Voodoo1/2/3/4/5/TNT/GEFORCE builder, I have an appreciation for the longevity of today's machines. I work as a professional IT services contractor and an IT/BA Analyst, and since I have yet to get a morgage, a wife, or a child... I have money to spend...

So, I was doing some testing and such, Found that I could squeeze 3.4ghz out of this beast with 1.3v to the CPU, and various other tweeks. Disparity between the pair of Core1/2 and Core 3/4 of about 14C between the two… My guesses are: Physically, Core1/2 are located on an area of...

Hey guys, I can't seem to find anywhere what amp requirement the 6970 card has? Just wondering due to my original Enermax Galaxy modular PSU having only 17Amp per each of its 5 Rails. I imagine if I split 1x PCI-E 6pin to a PCIe 8pin I will be wanting to get a dual 6pin to 8pin? Or...

I'm betting money on the leaks I have read about, claiming 20-40% speed improves when compared to a 580. Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a 6870 which is performing at the same speed of my former 5870, albeit, I am not 100% convinced the image quality is the same, I have left that topic in...

I am holding a 6970 in my hands as we speak, However, NDA says I cannot tell anything of this for about another week. Will leak information to the highest bidder :P

It seems as if ATI has removed this setting, I assume it is modifable via Registry or 3rd party tweak tools, I will post the solution when I find it later - It is THE FIRST thing I noticed after DriverCleaner/New Video Card/Initial Setup and Configuration. I bet you its locked at the old...

Err yeah. I'm at work right now, I never play games on my Bench PC so I didn't even realize I had an ATI 3400 Series card, but nevertheless, As far as Mipmap Detail Level, which is what it is, I'm fairly certain that at home, It's not present on 10.1 (not E, just default) & 6870.

Hey guys, After all the talk about AMD altering default settings to improve benchmark results, I'd like to ask the community a question: What ever became of the setting that allowed you to change Texture Image Quality? I had a 5870 that I recently sold for 350 to buy a 6870, However, upon...

I actually found a better way to get the AppleControlPanel for Brightness to work in Windows 7. #1) Right Click on "Computer" -> Select "Manage" and in the users area create a user account called: Test (with password: Test) -> Not an admin account! #2) You have to create a shortcut to the...

So as wishful thinking would have it, It is not infact a perspective thing, nor is it "Just me" I had a second person verify the color uniform issue... The left side of the screen is literally half a point gamma darker than the middle/right side. You can take a white window and drag it to...

I might have sounded a little harsh.. I wanted to retract that a bit: -the display as a whole is wonderful, It looks great, and minus the issues or concerns I have, It is a very impressive monitor. I just expected it to be perfect, therefore I either must accept the issues I have or get a...

I have had the original Enermax Galaxy 1K PSU for a few years now, And its still working great, voltages rock solid. I am sure some of you would say to avoid certain disaster, now might be a good time to replace this PSU as preventative maintainance, correct? Well, if thats not the case... I...

For months and months I saved money, Particularily, Gift cards from my school - To save $350.00 on this $1049.00 monitor, And I paid the rest in cash. Beyond the cost of the monitor, which isn't too out of control, I had to sell my Radeon 5870, which worked fine for me, and ended up hoping...

Hey Guys, I must have spent at least 8 hours over the past 6 months researching various answers and topics about the ATI Radeon 5870-Series and Apple Cinema Display.... Knowing the both do not work together for whatever reason, Many people say they get a black screen or need to use this...

Hey guys, I'm trying to boot from a USB Memory Stick to install 2008 SP2 (Non-R2) on a Quad-Xeon ECC-Ram Supermicro Server from around 2002 that has with it only a CD-ROM Drive. Fortunately, The USB Memory Stick shows up as a Hard Drive boot device in the CMOS, but after following some...

To update this thread, Through troubleshooting, I installed SMB Services on another of our MAC Servers, and I was able to access it from the Windows 7 Box that was throwing errors when trying to connect to our main File Server, this ended up working, so it appears it was something corrupt on...

Yeah, I have not only a Support Contract but an Enterprise XSAN Support Contract, I'm thinking of calling them on this but I doubt a Windows Networking issue would fall under their support scope. As far as the Windows 7 Computers being in a domain, yes, as highlighted in my post, I have tried...

Hello there, The company which I work for has an Apple XSAN 2-based NAS, and we have a few edit suites which are direct-fibre 4GBPS to the Server, but for the rest of the office, we have Windows XP machines which connect fine to the SMB-based share on the Apple Xserve's, and always have...

Why doesn't anyone reply to threads anymore? Wtf?

I've broken down and decided insted of trying to bother with a chain of Tomato Linked Routers, Since I don't have to pay for internet anymore, And I am going to leech 30mb Fiber Backbone link for free; I will spend good money for the best out there. The DLINK DGL 4500 Router The DLINK...

Greetings fellow friends, I recently moved next door to my new IT job. Quite literally, its an old neighborhood with many commercial complexes, and some old houses from the 40's. My company bought the property on both sides of our building incase the future requires expansion and for now I am...

I am wondering something that crossed my mind today. If you are using a high watt power supply, for example - 1000 to 1250 watts, would it be more reliable for the power supplies life, or less reliable for the power supplies life to be run with a low load system, say perhaps 200 to 500 watts...

Hey guys, So I was able to run RoboCopy GUI latest version, It worked and copied the folder along with all Permissions however, Once the appeared on the new server they all appeared as Funky named numbers with question marks.. . As in, The permissions are there but refer to user accounts on...

Velocitymaster, I am indeed on a 2000 Server as the source I am copying from D:\actgdata\*.* The destination is Windows Server 2008 Machine, Drive E:\actgdata All inclusive copy. How I was trying to access the files to copy, I was logged in a Administrator account via Terminal...

Hey there, Our accounting department has one hell of a mess of a folder. Its called ACTNGDATA and is full of chain directory with different or alternate user access and permissions inherited to the subfolder and files. I tried copying it under the highest account available that has...

Yeah, I checked into some of those threads, And I am still reading them.. Hoping to find a solution. But I wanted to check here as well as doing my own searching, Since I've never seen anything like this before. I use google 500x a day, But I appreciate you reminding me to use it 501x a day.

Hello Everyone, How are you all doing? I have a quick question; Because I'm stumped which is somewhat rare in occurance. Since Wens. at 2PM, Which was when I uninstalled our corporate Trend Micro Client/Server Security Messaging Suite, V3.6, I have been receiveing the (Included Image)...

I will probably be able to scare the Motherboard back into working when I get home. It just bothers me that the BIOS for the Maximus II is so damn buggy rite now

Heh, Discovered the sound card contacts are worn out, If its not screwed in at dead center and tightly, It doesnt work - I mean, It will detect it, But it wont actually play back any sound. Weirdest thing I' ve seen in years :P (Or at least rare)

I just said a prayer, And kinda bit my lip a bit, I am no typical believer but, The computer which I am testing the X-fi in, upon reboot and reinstall of the drivers, I have managed to make the sound card work, At least the front output. The other Outputs seem to only have one channel...

Hey all, I have been having problems with my Asus Maximus II P45-based motherboard for the past day. I was attempting to overclock it slightly (I know how to overclock without killing hardware... The voltages were very moderate and I was attempting between 366-400FSB Speeds, Nothing...

Here is some more information that I have deemed nessisary to be added to this post... I am using Absynth as VST Instrument Plugin. I have also, and more frequently attempted to use it as a Track Insert Effects plugin. I have tried using it as a MIDI Plugin, But it doesn't work right for me...

Why am I not posting on the official forums? well, Because I have, Not only that but I've spent a few hours today searching through pages and pages of topics about my exact issue only to find dead ends on pretty much most of the threads. Although I have attempted, and succesfully tried some of...

I was drunk when I did it, So not the first time, The second time, I touched the PSU Metal, But it still caused a BSOD. I will try the other attempt. Im more concerned about any permanent damage I may have already caused? Or was it just an innocent self protecting crash?

Okay, Okay. I know its not the smartest thing to do... But please; Read on! I had my guitar plugged in, Through my DI to mixing board, Mixing board to quarter Inch front panel on X-Fi connector drive. It was set to ASIO, at 2MS latency, I got no clicks, Pops anything. I was very surprised...

I'm about to go home and play with a second 300gb Raptor. Obviously I will want to make a backup of what is on the single raptor. Rite now its plugged into the Intel ICH10R Controller. Is there any sense in switching it over to the ASUS Speeding HDD-enabled Silicon Image Controller? If...

Resolved issue: Was setting on the motherboard, That was always the same, but somehow triggered a problem throughout use. Asus HDD Speeding Mode setting changed from Auto/Current setting to Disabled. Phantom partition gone. Weird as hell, It was only a single drive to begin with...

I have not tried hooking it up in another machine, But thats a good idea. I will try that when I get home. I will plug it into my old box and boot to Vista and check out the partitions. I am pretty sure it will still show though.... If it doesnt, It means my motherboard or something.. which I...

Here are the images, The first one is of Computer Management, showing it. The other is of the Device Manager itself showing two instances. I don't know if it is an old school linux partition or not, But it if was, I would presume Acronis Enterprise 10 would have told me so. I am starting to...

I will provide screenshots of this, As well as the error message I receive when I'm off work. The error message comes up in Event Viewer/System when trying to Ititialize the disk. I'll provide details on the exact name of the device ID in vista. I will also try applying my 100gb XP...
