hey there the green beret, you didn't specify what operating system you had, so here's a couple of links; see if these help:The first one is for Win98 & WinME
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=40175&area=search&ordinal=4
This one is for Win2K...
this is just an idea, so take it how you will. Since you received the same message from the old and the new harddrives. If you are able to boot from a Win98 floppy, maybe the MBR? Maybe the IDE controller is going on the fritz(a very technical term, I know). It sounds to me like some sort of I/O...
So, get this. I just inherited an old Cyrix MII 300GP system. I have absolutely no idea what to do with it other than use it as a paperweight. Does anyone out there have a suggestion? Anything with at least some purpose would be helpful, as I am clueles as to what to do with it. Thanx folks...
Hey folks. I have a simple enough question. Since everything is basically a multiplication of the PCI bus speed i.e. PCI bus X 3=CPU FSB(PCI bus X 3 X 4= P4 FSB), let me know if this is right. My PCI bus is set at 38 MHz, with CPU/DRAM ratio of 3:5. Now my P4 is running at 1849 MHz, with an FSB...
Okay folks here's what I know:
It's a used PC
AMD Athlon 900MHz
133MHz bus
128 MB SDRAM
Nvidia Riva TNT2 AGP graphics card
SIS NIC (disabled)
Generic Conexant chipset PCI FAX Data MODEM
HP 4300 Scanjet scanner
Now, the computer mentioned is my brothers. I live in NY and he in CA, so I can...
Newegg is a great site, they have just about everything there is. Another good one is www.mwave.com, I just built an excellent system between the services of these 2 sites, if Newegg doesn't have it MWAVE will, and the shipping is equally priced between the 2 of them.
Just trying to help, hope...
Hey Gang, this isn't really a technical issue but...My new system is built on an Asus P4S333 board, and I just have to say, although it's only the first PC I've built, it's really got to be an expanders' dream.I guess I should tell that the reason I was even prompted to build a system is that...
For ceh4702 and ITphile, the program is called Intel Processor Frequency ID Utility.It downloads in a flash with anything but a 56K modem, and it's worth having. Just out of curiosity though, doesn't control panel>system>give you a screen somewhat similar? I know that my PC running Windows XP on...
Paprazi, this question has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand, but I have been going through many of the posts in this forum, and always, you quote prices in the pound sterling. Now, I understand that you are in England, or Britain if you prefer, my question is this: about what does...
Kows, you might want to try this link
http://direct.mwave.com/mwave/doc2/A15979.html
it's an Asus board, with via chipsets, support for 3Gigs of PC2700,all AMD processors from 600MHZ up to 2 GHz, 266 MHz FSB, on-board raid@ ATA 133, USB, 1394, and 6 channel audio, no on-board LAN, but I hope I...
Buggeroo, Jonathan definitely has the right of it. Sometimes it's not actually the level of the noise, but the actual noise itself. You mention that the fan runs at 38Dba, which is pretty quiet. Normal conversations range from 40 to 60 Dba, but they're not usually that annoying(depending on...
Perry, it's a little known fact that there are actually only 4 or 5 companies that actually make the RAM chips, it's just tons of companies slap their name on them.I'm not sure how it works, but I recently read an article at zdnet, about some PC2700 chips that are actually just overclocked...
Hi again folks. well, since I'm writing you obviously figured that I got everything up and working, took a little time, but things are groovy. JBrusie, I wanna say thanx man, but your advise turned out to be wrong. I appreciate anything that I can get from folks in the know though. I ended up...
I am currently building a P4 system, with a 1.6 GHz Processor, on an Asus P4S333 board with integrated Audio. So far I have the NIC, the VGA, modem, and 256 MB of DDR to start. (The board supports 2G of PC2700). This is the first PC I've ever built, so far it's all going pretty smoothly, but as...
