    Video card burnout

    well it will be watercooled once it runs stable. But even stock it should last more than 20 minutes doing nothing. My current watercooled GPU gets to the 60deg C mark when its busting its butt, overclocked from 400 to 450mhz.

    Video card burnout

    I recently bought a sapphire radeon x1300 for the new comp i was building. Everything was fine for about 20 minutes until i started seeing pixels not showing up properly (mostly in grid like lines, seemingly random on the screen). I know its not the monitor. Upon further inspection i noticed...

    File transfer

    I recently built a new machine, and i'm moving all my files over from my old hard drives to my new ones, except the problem im having is a do not have access to anything under the documents and settings folders (even as the admin). is there any way to get this data off of there? the old...

    CPU upgrade

    After comparing some benchmarks, the AMD 4000 edges over the P4 for graphics, but the P4 650 easily beats out the amd on video tasks. As far as pure processing (file moving/copying etc), they are pretty much equal. The P4 uses more power and therefore runs warmer, but that isn't an issue in a...

    CPU upgrade

    The main problem with me upgrading to say, a dual core amd, is that my mobo can't support it, and those processors are generally much more expensive. My current board will only let me upgrade so much, and I dont feel like buying a new CPU every 9-12 months. The new board will last me a...

    CPU upgrade

    Well, I went ahead and done did it. I finally found a motherboard that will support what I want/need, and I'm switching over to a Pent 4 775, 3ghz, 2mb cache, 800mhz bus. After adding a new P4 waterblock I'm paying about $350 total (which includes shipping from the states to japan), which...

    5 Pin to 6 Pin PS2 Keyboard converter difficulties.

    Sounds like your keyboard is just too old. I'd just break the bank for $15 on a new keyboard. Another thing you can try is one of them PS2 to USB converters and see if it still gives you problems.

    CPU upgrade

    cdogg, it is a 939 socket chip. I'm 99% certain my board can support the 4000, I just gotta make sure the bus and cache are within its bounds. It's not like the 3200 is all that bad, but doubling my cache and adding 400mhz would definately be beneficial. I'm still on the fence if I want...

    CPU upgrade

    Thanks for all the advice, I'm actually browsing motherboards but my processor is the only 'lacking' component in my comp (ati x800 xl, 2gb ddr 400 ram, 400gb of SATA, 7.1 surround/speakers, high-flow water cooling system). I'm probably gonna see if my motherboard can support (maybe even...

    CPU upgrade

    I'd have to double check the specs, but its a relatively new board, and its not an immense upgrade (or i'd probably be going for an FX series chip) so for the time being i'm going to assume it does.

    CPU upgrade

    I am thinking of upgrading my current amd64 3200 (2.0ghz, 512kb cache) to an amd64 4000 (2.4ghz, 1mb cache). I've done alot of hardware upgrades, all the way down to the motherboard but I've never replaced a processor (I'm more of a software guy). Is there any special procedure to this, or can...
