Thanks! I was looking at the comparison chart for their Z97 boards and saw that only the Z-97-WS was listed as supporting 4-way SLI and Crossfire.

I'm just about to build a new computer with a 295x2 but I want to be able to drop a second one in there later this year. Will a Z97-A do it or do I have to get something like a Z97-WS? If I need to pick a different board does anyone have any suggestions? I really don't know anything about...

After doing some thinking I've decided I'm going to not do anything now and save up and do a complete a overhaul in the next couple months. Thanks again for all the help and sorry for the late reply.

My OS drive I've used on SATA 0 and SATA 1 just fine, but the other drives haven't worked on either of those or SATA 2. As far as new hardware goes, I'd rather keep it as cheap and simple as possible. At some point in the next couple years I'll be building a new computer and going all out so I...

Ideally I'd like to keep it at $200 or less but really I can afford much more, I just might have to wait a few weeks or a month depending on what we're talking about. I don't have my other power supply handy so might as well price out a new one and if I'm lucky I might not need it.

As far as a budget goes I'm somewhat flexible but I'd just like to keep it as inexpensive as possible since I don't need any performance improvement other than being able to throw a larger hard drive in there. I just don't want there to be any sort of drop in performance anywhere. I do have...

When I ran HWinfo I got this warning at first and just hit continue. Let me know if I should re-run it and disable that sensor. The results without disabling it are:

I'm actually at my girlfriends house tonight so I don't have my desktop in front of me. I am still using the OEM PSU which I believe is 460W, if that's not exactly correct then it should be close enough. I don't think I was maxing out the PSU since I hadn't added anything else to that system and...

It's a Lian Li PC-60 Plus and their site lists it as ATX/M-ATX. It was given to me by a co-worker and I have yet to use it so I'm actually not too familiar with it. http://www.lian-li.com/en/dt_portfolio/pc-60-plus-ii/

That would be awesome! Thanks for all the help.

I'm open to the possibility of upgrading my system and I even posted somewhere else about it but didn't get any help as to what I'd need to replace and what I could keep. I don't really need to improve my PC for what I use it for, I just need more storage space so I can stop deleting stuff to...

Sorry, I missed that about the page file. I've never changed with that but I'll look into when I can. I'll also have to figure out how to re-create the error without getting another new hard drive.

Apparently I only have two .dmp files on my computer and they're both from games. According to the settings on my computer it's supposed to name the file memory.dmp and it should be in my root directory but it's not there. Is there any reason why it wouldn't create that file even thought it's...

I'd be happy to take him up on it but I don't know where to get that file from. If that link explains it then I'm probably too tired to parse out the info that I need from it and will have to come back to it tomorrow during lunch. Edit: I did a little more reading and checked my settings. It's...

I had previously updated the Intel Rapid Storage driver with a download from the Intel site but I hadn't seen the one from Dell so I went ahead and ran that but still no change.
