Ok... lets see if I can accurately describe the symptoms and if some kind soul knows how or where to start with this. Seems like one of my wife's sons has a small machine: 500Mhz processor 128Mb memory 40Gb HDD Old Nividia vidio card OS is WIN 98 SE II. Symptoms: From a cold boot; power...

Ok, so why would chaning the pre-charge time to 6 help? I'm not questioning your advice, I'm trying to understand what the benefit of taking this particular action will do. <font color=red>When you smoke your CPU, what kind of papers do you use? :eek:

Hmmm... seems to me that you are asking for "opinions" not data to indicate exactly which system configuration is the better for a particular application useage. If all you want is opinion, you could just as easily go to your local (computer/department) store and ask any of the sales people...

Oh... n' I did some research on the new AXP's.. seems like the "CHIP" is not (as was suggested earlier) as ceramic as it's older brothers/sisters/aunt's n' uncles.. seems the new AXP's are "organic material" and after doing a lot of reading sounds like it's more akin to the material PCB's are...

Well, depending on what the composition of the stuff is thats on your CPU and HSF, there are several things you can try. On the HSF, I'd disassemble the HSF so that the HS n' F are apart. Then I'd likely try something like using some really hot water or a hair drier to see if after the heat...

Used whois on the two domain names <font color=red>vikingcomputers.net</font color=red> and <font color=red>anhmicro.com</font color=red> just a couple of minutes ago...... Seems like these guys are indeed the same company.. and some different ph #'s too... notice the different <b><font...

Gezz.. seems to me that most motherboards, if they can't find the memory put out single long beeps in a loop.. you know.. Beeeeeep..... Beeeeep.... Beeeeep... beeeeep.... on and on and on... Are you guys sure you didn't smoke your CPUs by not having the HSF's down tight onto the MoBo straight...

Um.... leme see if I understand this right... Your monitor flickers even in Bios... Have you attempted to overclock your video card in any way? If so, then undo it and see what happens... Do you Have you tried moving the monitor to another system to see if it flickers there too? If the...

Sure, there are boards that hve more DIMM slots, but which operatins system can use more than 512 Mb of memory correctly. From what I've been able to test, Windows 95/98/ME/2000 seem to see it but don't seem to be able to use it.. so haveing the capability to have say 2-4 Gigs of real memory...

keep us all apprised of your success or failure.. some of us here are considering the same borard.. however perhaps not from the same vendor...so please let us know how you work out... <font color=red>When you smoke your CPU, what kind of papers do you use? :eek:

Should I be presumptious and assume you've talked to ASUS about this??? I know when I've tried to talk to ASYS, I usually have had beeter luck talking to the sales team instead of the tech suppor folks... pointing out that fourms like this abound... and some of us actually listen to each...

Fuger likely wishes to use a Zilog Z80 or something similar... run CPM too.. <font color=red>When you smoke your CPU, what kind of papers do you use? :eek:

Ok, so i've read all the posts on this... and my question is um.. SO WHAT! I've dealt with systems for many, many years (yes my hair is silver in colour) and in the begining, we talked about <font color=red>MIPS</font color=red> (<font color=red>M</font color=red>illions (of executed) <font...

I experienced the same exact thing. Called ASUS and got the following things to do. 1). if you have more memory try that. ( I had 2 Gigs of PC2100 CRUCIAL {That's 8 sticks of 256 MB memory either just lying around or in other systems I could use} ). 2). They claimed it could be an...

Hi all, Ok, so this is a simple question.. I've a scanner that has a scsi and a usb interface. I'd like to use the scanner from either of my two systems. So here's the simple question. Can I hook up the scsi interface to one system and use the USB interface to the other. Yeah, yeah...
