Apparently some people have been experiencing problems with installing and running 3dm06. I am one of those people, so I decided to start a thread about this. Please post any issues with 3dm06 here. My own problem with it: 3dm06 hangs at the logo screen - it keeps hitting HDD...

I have this problem with X-FI Fatal1ty. Maybe someone knows what to do about it... I'm trying to get 3D positional sound to work through regular stereo headphones using CMSS 3D. The way I have it set up is as follows: the win xp Control Panel is set to 5.1, X-FI audio console is set to...

I have a problem where upon installing the newest official beta NV 81.84 forceware, when I have only a single CRT connected to my SLI system, it shows up as primary and secondary, as if I had two monitors. Uninstalling one of them or both of them doesnt help. As soon as I reboot, windows detects...

About a month ago I built a new computer. It has brand new 2x74Gb 10k rpm raptors in raid0. Only about 2 weeks ago, the raptors started clicking. All the symptoms of drives simply falling asleep, after about 10 min of inactivity. I start a task that needs to access the harddrives and there's a...

A64 3800+ venice @ 2.8GHz and 1.65V, abit an8 sli, case with monstrous airflow. I'm getting 39C @ idle and 60-62C @ load. The system temp is 30C @ load, pwm temp is 36C @load. The temperatures rise and fall upon applying and taking off load almost instantly (full change from idle to load temps...

Having trouble with Mushkin HP 2x1GB, which I just received. It came with silver heatspreaders and black pcb, so it must be a new batch. I can get it going @ stock, and @ ~220-225MHz by dropping cas to 2.5. However, my cpu tops out 2800, so I would really like to get it going @ 255 or 233MHz. I...

I've put together a system like this: CPU: A64 Venice 3800+ @ 2.8GHz (10.5x266) @ 1.65V RAM: 4x512 Geil Ulta Platinum PC4000 @ 215MHz @ 5-5-9-2.5 @ 2.5V Motherboard: Abit AN8 SLI @HTT speed 4x266 I was hoping to get 30s in Super_PI, but I am getting 32. I think the ram is holding me back...

I have 120mm fans and matching anodized aluminum filters (4 holes to attach to fans with regular fan screws). How do you attach a filter so it's easily removable (no screwdriver required)? Thanks

I'm having some weird dual PS behavior in a new system I am building. I've pretty much combed the entire internet for dual PS setup info and I still couldn't find the answer. Multiple guides state that shorting green wire pin (pin 14, PSON) and any black pin (GND) would start an ATX PS. Or...

I have 2 SATA Raptors which are brand new. I also have Abit AN8 SLI which is also brand new. I want to install WinXp pro (SP2 version) to these drives. I've read about people have trouble with those and needing a floppy on F6 of winxp install. I've never used raid before and I would...

Hello. I am upgrading my system. I'm planning to have the following components: Athlon 64 3800+ Venice core 2.4GHz @ 2.6+ (on air with Thermalright xp-90c and 115cfm 92mm delta screemer) Abit A8N SLI motherboard 4x512 ram @ 220-230MHz 2xBFG Geforce 7800 GTX @stock case with 7x120mm...

I would really appreciate suggestions on the best case possible that money can buy for air cooling/airflow (aside from refridgerator cases though). Also, any hints and tricks on best possible motherboard/system cooling will be very welcome. Thanks.

I just got a PC Power and Cooling Turbo-cool 510 Deluxe. The bios is reading the 12V rail volatage at 11.73-11.79. I'm overclocking quite a bit: p4 3.4E @ 3.8 GHz, 4 sticks of ddr-500 ram, Epox 4pca3+ mobo. Should I increase the voltage? I know this PS has 2 holes to adjust those voltages but I...

What do they do exactly?

I picked up Samsung 930B just to test it in gaming. It's supposed to have 8ms refresh and I've seen a load of people claiming that they can't see ghosting on this panel. Well, after playing with it for about an hour, it's definitely better than my older 16ms 20" Benq, but still nowhere near the...

After reading all possible web/usenet information I could find on 21-22" monitors, I got Mitsu dp2070sb-bk monitor, mostly because of rave reviews/recommendations here. I got it a few days ago and it sucks. The geometry of the image is all screwed up: up/bottom sides are concave and there's no...

I'm using an x800 xt with Omega 4.12 drivers (which is the best set right now, imo). And I can't get anisotropic filtering to work with this game. I tried setting Anisotropy to 8 in Swat4.ini, and I tried forcing anisotropic filtering through radlinker. It doesn't seem to work. In fact, what I...

Hi, I used to run this p4 3.0C @ 3.6GHz with 1G generic pc4200 @ 240Mhz. Now I replaced the ram for 2G (512x4) of pc4000 Geil and I can go no faster than 3.4Ghz (ram/fsb @ 226Mhz). I suspect that it's the powersupply, which is Antec Truepower 430. Other equipment: Epox ep-4pca3+, Sapphire...
