    CPU core voltage

    I'm with you on the guinea pig bit. My old computer came down with a virus. Norton couldn't find it. When I chatted with Norton they said that they would find it for an additional fee. So, not only do I have to purchase Norton but I have to pay extra when it doesn't work. Of course, I...

    One-half of Network Works

    I formatted my hard drive and reinstalled WindowsXP. Sure enough, it was very easy to network both computers. I really didn't have to do anything special. I can now share files, pictures, printers, etc. It works great! Regarding the virus, I uninstalled Norton Internet Security, reinstalled...

    One-half of Network Works

    Well, as luck would have it, I believe that my old computer has a virus. I don't believe that it is the cause of the networking problems but is sure isn't helping. In hindsight, I guess it is fortunate that I couldn't network. In trying to do all of the things suggested, I noticed that Norton...

    One-half of Network Works

    As an update: 1. The router assigned the IP addresses automatically. I believe that the last number needs to be different so as to distinguish one device from another on the same network. 2. I downloaded NTRIGHTS.EXE and followed your instructions. 3. In Regedit, the value was set to "0"...

    One-half of Network Works

    Thanks for the reply. After reading the link you provided, I really had high hopes that this would correct my problem. I followed all of the directions, rebooted and still have the same problem. The old computer recognizes the network and joins it but refuses to map the drive or create a...

    One-half of Network Works

    I recently built a computer and thought it would be neat and easy to network it with my old computer. It may be neat but it hasn't been easy. I use a Linksys WRT54GS router and have cabled the new computer to it and use a Wireless G USB device to connect the old computer. Both computers...

    CPU core voltage

    Apparently, the Intel Desktop Utility that came with the motherboard did not support that motherboard, the 975, so it was giving false readings. I uninstalled it and downloaded the Intel Desktop Control Center, which Intel states does support the 975. The Control Center shows the CPU voltage...

    CPU core voltage

    I just installed the Intel desktop utility and am receiving the following message: CPU CORE (+2.05V) OUT OF RECOMMENDED RANGE I don't know what this means or what I need to do to correct it. Is the CPU receiving too much voltage or too little or does this mean something else entirely? Also...

    BIOS won't recognize hard drives

    I should have explained that you can install third party software, RAID drivers in my case, during the WindowsXP install process by pressing F6. At that point, I tried to install the blue drivers but WindowsXP wouldn't accept them but it would accept the black drivers. ALSO, the problem is...

    BIOS won't recognize hard drives

    I believe that I am using the black SATA controllers. I tried using the blue controllers but they weren't accepted.

    BIOS won't recognize hard drives

    I do have the board you described. Thinking that RAID might be an issue, I deleted the RAID array and changed the BIOS to ACHI. I also updated the BIOS to the latest version. I read the links you supplied but none of the suggestions work. I am still at the point where the POST lists the hard...

    BIOS won't recognize hard drives

    I just built a computer but the bios doesn't list the hard drives. The curious part is that the two hard drives are listed in the POST and in the RAID Configuration Utility. Obviously, I can't install an operating system because it doesn't see anyplace to install. My system is as follows...
