Hello yall! Ive been using Zone Alarm Internet Security for the longest time but lately since WinVista it seems their products will turn my high-end PC to a crawl with it constantly blocking my network connections and slow boot times. My subscription is up and really done with them so trying...

This is so bloody fail. Tired 2 different Linksys usb wifi adapters (wusb54gc and wusb600n) and both does the exact same thing. The driver is quickly installed ok BUT I cannot enable the network device. IT goes through the process of enabling but never does. Debuggin bitches about the IPv4...

Ok just built up this rig with EVGA 780i mobo OCZ reaper 1066 4gb and this Intel q6700 CPU. So im in the process of troubleshooting why its unstable when i use both 2gb ram sticks than just one (switching sticks are fine). Noticed that there is a BIG difference between the Vcore I ser in the...

Suppose I can get another EVGA, built a few using it but had some DOA issues with them. 3.5ghz seems to be the avg cap for this chipset but I'll be happy to get 3ghz since it will still blow away my opteron 170 at 3.3ghz BIG time. Try running 2 9800gx2 on my Opteron 170 is bottlenecking me, or...

The LP NF4 series was the thing in its day and could not get me to buy thing else. Still have 2 rigs with Opteron chips at 3.3Ghz using DFI mobos. Sine then, they have reduced their flare and being very slow in getting back into the hard core overclocker market with the quad cores. I got...

Its for a Intell q6600 chip with ddr2 1066 RAM and 2 9800gx2. Played with the EVGA 780i mobo and ASUS board is too expensive. Have those 2 really been it or are there other Mobos with NF780i? Looking for quality and can scream at overclocking.

Figured much my cpu is holding it back, futuremark is putting a heavy emphasis on cpus now these days to make people to burn more $$$ than just GPUs to get those scores. Just wanted comparison to other DC CPUs. Getting the Q6600 soon but not yet. Running COD4 on maxed out everything and it...

Win Vista SP1 Gefore 9800gtx stock at the moment 2gb DDR 600 AMD Opteron 170 dual core at 3ghz Got 10243 for 3dmark06 free edition. Seems a bit low but thinking its cause I aint using a quad core cpu yet. This good?

Ok so it appears the Sound Blaster Audigy sux really bad for vista, getting sick of distortion when on load. Is the Xfi any better and not do this distorition crap or is there another brand to look at?

A switch in platform does not dictate price, demand does. When a new platform is released, the predecessors will be at reduced production and then discontinued. This also means it will cost more per hit to produced since the volume pricing will be gone. Reduced supply will cause increase in...

send that silly video card back! The problem is not with the mobo or the card in isolation but working together. They arent compatbale for some reason..I had a similar problem. You proved the card works fine in another box. Your mobo works fine with another card beside that one. I concur...

Good call Bungsta! Can't believe I forgot about that one. When I upgraded to socket 939 and A64 3200+ I got a 480W Thermaltake and ran into the same problem; wouldn't boot. Started ok with a middle of the road 350W whateveritwas PSU but was nervous about the power rating. Went and got a 450W...

The mobo bois should be sufficient but it could have a bad copy so I will update it from 1.50 to the 1.70 version. I'll also manually scale it down to 4x but Ill have to lock it first with the ti4600 installed (Thanks ASRock!). Wat Bois rev was your bros mobo using when these issues cropped up?

Way off there! My rig will not POST with my Radeon 9800pro-xt but will with the ti4600. Switching molex calbes were no good. Also to note, it seems that the rig constantly reboots before posting whent he 9800 is in there for Im seeing the optical drives reloading every second. Im starting to...

Not yet but no plans for OCing this will be for my wife. I have also manuall adjusted the BIOS settings for stock configs for CPU, RAM, VGA equip just to make sure the mobo goes tard on me.
