Well, I ended up going back to the ASUS website to see about getting it RMA'ed and interestingly enough, this time the warranty registration went smoothly. So I guess that's going to be my course of action.
I recently got an ASUS N51vn-X1A, specs and other crap: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220566&cm_re=n51vn-_-34-220-566-_-Product
I'm currently running Windows 7 Ultimate 64.
Anyway. I got the computer near the end of October. Around the beginning of December...
I am trying to hook my computer running an X800XTPE to a 26" Panasonic Widescreen HDTV. So far I have tried S-Video and even component and it is still impossible to read text. It does have an HDMI input on it. The problem is a DVI to HDMI cable will run about $50. So anyhbody experiened in this...
I am currently using visual Basic 5 and am working on a project of my own.
For those of you who dont know what airsoft is, it is similar to paintball except guns are more realistic and they fire 6mm plastic BBs. Guns can be modified in thousands of ways to increase accuracy and performance of...
I've been trying to build a program that is a program manager for my computer. I figure I can use this instead of Explorer which uses some 50-100 Megs of RAM, instead I would use a program that uses very little RAM and just ditch Explorer alltogether.
Problem is I cant figure out how to open...
creating printed circuit board using a method that takes your patern printed on a piece of paper from a laser printer and melts the ink from the paper onto the board. So you can get a custom pcb to fit your project exactly. Instead of having to go to radioshack and getting one of those boards...
to make the fade go slower, you can put a resistor on both sides of the capacitor, on the feed to make the fade in slower and on the output to make the fade out slower (that is if you dont find a cap that will work as slow as you want straight to the nine volt battery. I have a book at home that...
so it currently updates the picture every 3 minutes?
Sounds like a cool idea, you could try making a plexiglass box to encase it in so u dont get bad focus caused by the bent plastic in front of the lens.
They do sell these little GE lamps that you mount underneath things.
here
crap...the link isnt working, well that link will take you to the lighting page. Down the list there is browse by brand , click GE and its the one that's $8.99. Its basically an 18" fluorescent light you can mount on...
we have dropped the FSB and still cant get it any higher, in comparison, than it is now.
we have not tried a different BIOS. But this week, being spring break, my friend is going to be out of town so I cant really try anything until he gets back
the ram voltage is 3.5 which is quite a bit and I have tried reducing the RAM multiplier, still the same result. We were wanting to know if we could keep trying different things or to just say "its the CPU, were done."
My friend recently built a system, here are the specs:
A64 3000 Winnie
DFI LanParty NF4 Ultra-D
x850XT
Raptor 74G SATA
WD 160G SATA
Fortron Bluestorm 500W
OCZ 512 VX Gold clocked at 2-2-6-2
We went into the BIOS to overclock the CPU:
Voltage was 1.55
The FSB wont go higher than...
Ive been working at this for the past 2 days and so far do not yet see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Im building a program using VB6 in which the user enters information concerning address, billing and shipping information. The project consists of 4 forms, an entry form, an overview, a...
There is a program acalled BlackWidow i think. Basically works as a browser but sort of combines a microsoft drive explorer feel to it. You enter the site you want and it comes up with all pages, images and everything and posts them in a menu to the right side of the window. It would obviously...
For 30milliamps the gauge wouldnt need to be very big. (Im never good with gauges) maybe around 1/8" or so. I'm not very sure about the resistor but I know with wiring, series adds and parallel divides. So you might try figuring another resistor that you could parallel with it to give you the...
I dont have any pictures, as i didnt think to take one when I ran the defrag, but It was somewhere around 29,000, 51% fragmented files. I had around 50gigs of space used and it basically looked like someone got a papercut on my screen :p .
yeah it was pretty bad
My friend recently bought this for a system, and unlike most PSU (as you probably know) it uses a 120mm fan which means it is gonna be pretty quiet. And it is, aside from his zalman 7700cu it has to be the quietest component in his pc.
I absolutley love the zen gaden on top. Very Awesome Idea. I might have to steal that idea myself :p . naaa I dont have anything to use it on yet, need to start another mod soon...
But anyways, great work.
Try using the Cat 4.12's, My friend was talking to me about drivers and he said a lot of people were disappointed with the 5.1's. I have an XTPE and I got an extra 7 or 8 frames in Doom3 upon installing the 4.12's.
I was mainly looking for "I have a winnie and have it set to **" but yea if I didnt get any replies I was just gonna find its stable speed myself. But figured I could save some time by getting some suggestions.
My friend recently set up his system, a DFI Lanparty N4 ultra-d and a xp3000 64 winnie.
Im wanting to push 2.5 at least. he has a zalman 7700cu so heat isnt too much of a problem. but any suggestions?
I agree there must be something wrong or my case has really good placement ;)
But I have a 800pro modded to XT PE, pipes and all, and with a stock cooler running at 85% ive reached 65 once and that was because I loaded the doom3 test map that has around 100 monsters in one room, either than...
I quite agree, whether the circumstances or not, with your mom, still posting something that would be better kept to yourself is only just an attempt at getting attention. In coming into the ATI forum and telling us you are trying to KILL a 9800XT, your asking for a flame. Its a subject that...
lol, kinda makes me feel sorry for you guys.
[conspiracy theory] I think the tooth paste companies have a deal with the dentist to put bad ingrediants in their tooth paste to make you have to visit the dentist more. There was a time when I was about 6 that I had skipped brushing my teeth for...
I've got something that can beat most. But first a few not-so-bad experiences.
We were finishing our basement, my dad was connecting to frames to form a corner. He pushed the nail gun down onto the wood and when he pulled the trigger, it slipped sending a nail into his hand. It took him about...
well if you are not afraid of losing the fan, Im not very sure if this will work, you can get rid of the temp. sensor and try connecting the two wires. This will work if it controls the fan by using switch type circuit, using the temp. sensor as a sort of resistor.
Another valid point, say your idea is SO awesome that people start using it left and right, eventually everyone is going to think the same thing, "well I've seen this idea in a few hundred places, I don't have to mess with crediting."
On a side note: having LED's on the fan blades would be...
It all depends on how much money you want to spend, if you are a case modder like me (someone who wants to make a good looking case with a VERY low budget) then find a cheap, offbrand case that will run you about $30 dollars. Dont get me wrong, you might be one of those people who put extensive...
I would have to admit that worrying THAT MUCH about recieving credit is pretty stupid. Its the whole chain "telephone" business that we used to do ages ago back in 4th grade. First, your going to make the idea, someone's going to copy it and give you credit. The next person is going to see...
Now, I've beaten D3 2 times over in a dark room, with my Cyber Acoustics pumping (well as loud as I could get them without disturbing my parents downstairs with the bass from the shotgun blasts) But I can guarantee that I would lose that contest the second I walked into the room.
If scary is...
You would probably need to shut it off in the ATI CP, I might be wrong, but if you just shut the monitor off, the card will still render the frames as if it were turned on.
I would agree about BB doing some shady stuff under the counter. A local News Station of mine does this program called Shop Smart or something like that. Its a program that talks about products and services and how good they REALLY are. The one I saw they were testing BB's computer repair...
Acutally the series of beeps is a sort of diagnostics test. It tells you whats wrong with it if it's a hardware problem the computer cant fix itself. For instance 8 beeps is a Video problem 6 beeps is a memory problem and 7 beeps is a CMOS problem. (not necessarily accurate but I dont have...
