Yeah, I already tried all things you mentioned. Used latest version of FDisk, tried ez-install, and Western digital software. They worked fine but I still can't install ANY Operating System.
I tried to play with BIOS, even installed latest BIOS version, and changed jumpers, IDE cables. I also...
I did try to make a 6 GB partition and tried to install win 2k. That didn't work. BIOS does detect harddrive, fdisk and format worked fine with the harddrive. My only main problem is that I CAN'T install any OS on it. I did try Windows 98, no go.
In my previous post, I said that fdisk only sees...
Hi,
I recently bought a new harddrive, Western Digital 80 GB 7200 RPM OEM.
The BIOS detected harddrive all right. I tried to install it with windows 2000. Booted into CD worked fine but it won't allow me to install. I also tried to install linux. Boot cd worked fine but I got kernel panic and...
paparazi,
The heat continues to rise but slowly. It passed 60 C yesterday. I think my cpu fan may not be good. Think I should get better fan? If so, what's good model to buy?
You mentioned Volcano 7 (cpu fan) is good. Mine's Volcano 6. Is there any difference between them?
Are you saying I should take out rear case fan and put it on the outside back of the case? Or put extra fan on the back? If I do that, there arent any extra screw holes for extra fan.
Just want to make I understand it clearly.
Yeah, I live in Pennsylvania. It's summer. So, that's probably why...
Hi,
I'm currently looking for better external burner (linux support) to buy. I prefer good speed with reasonable price. My linux is Redhat 7.3 and I went to their site. I can't find any page that tells which burner is supported.
Thanks for all suggestions. I did what you told me to. Added extra case fan and put the paste on cpu, followed the instructions from arcticsilver site. I bought the paste from local store, it isn't arcticsilver. I forgot the name of the brand.
Last night, I left my computer running for an hour...
WEll, I'll be damned. There is a big cut out under the facia end. Do you think it's better to add fan there? And how can it work? Take air in from the bottom?
I'll go to a local computer store and look for the paste. Thanks again.
My CPU Fan type is Thermaltake Volcano. It is supposed to work with Athlon 1.4 GHz and up. Do you recommend to buy better fan type or add thermal paste to cpu?
Again about the case. I checked the front of case. Inside the case, it DOES have front vent (no fan yet) but front cover doesn't have...
I know it's pretty serious. That's why I shut it down and won't use it until I find a way to keep it cool.
Power supply fan is working fine but I dont feel any strong current. I don't know much about fans or heat transfer paste.
The cpu fan seems to work fine. It spins normally. I have no idea...
Hi,
I built a custom computer with asus A7V266-E, Athlon XP 1800, 512 MB RAM PC2100, and Viper 770 Ultra TNT2 32 MB. I run Redhat 7.3 linux on it.
While I was working on something on linux, my computer froze up for no reason. I reboot and check BIOS to see the temperature. It was at 178 F (81...
I have similar problem. I have Asus A7V266 with Athlon XP 1800. It does produce a lot of heat. I only have cpu fan and system fan on the back of the case. They didn't help enough.
daveharrison, when your computer shut down again, turn it on and go to BIOS and look for temperature. It should...
I recently installed exchange 2000 enterprise server. I'm struggling to find a way to pick up emails for individual users. It can only check with exchange server, not other mail (POP) server.
I have two books but they aren't being helpful. Can anybody point somewhere I can go? Thanks.
bingo! That's what I was looking for! There's 2 mirco atx cases that I like and they are cheap.

Thank you very much for your help
This is the type of case I like:
http://www.casedepot.com/proddetail.asp?linenumber=530&category=Standard+Cases&subcategory=Slim&sidecat=Standard+Cases
Is that case type, MICRO ATX? That might be what I'm looking for. If that is right type then I'll go look for myself, saving your troubles and...
Thanks for the link but that is not what I'm looking for. I'm not looking for some original desktop case. What I'm looking for something desktop style but a case that has less than 4 inches in height and is lighter in weight.
Do you guys understand what I'm talking about?
