That is really pushing the limit of the PSU. It is hard to say one way or the other. I am running 3 HDs with a 4400+ and a 7800GTX and the SN25P runs with no problems, but I'm not sure with a bump in CPU and graphics card, if the extra power consumption will put it over the top. Hope someone...

Updated: 05-01-2006 * Updated format of the guide. * Added new Q/A concerning ethernet issues. The format of the guide was really broken for awhile, my apologies for not getting it fixed sooner =( Ald

Hi Vlad, How is your video card currently setup (power wise)? Are you using the Y-Splitter that came bundled with the card? I currently have a BFG 7800GTX OC in a SN25P and the way my system is hooked up right now is that I put the Y-Splitter on one of power output molex. I then connected...

I will try to keep the guide as current as possible :p The guide has been moved due to text limitations. Ald

Just got back from my long and extended vacation yummm... so I didn't get a chance to read some of the issues. Regarding the SATA drive, you don't need to install any sort of drivers for it. The only purpose for the nVidia IDE Driver is to get the option to enable/disable NCQ and I believe...

You might also want to upgrade to the newest BIOS if you haven't already since it fixes an USB issue with users running dual cores. Ald

I would try the following: Flash your CMOS again with the power unplugged from the computer, remove all expansion cards and devices. Boot up your computer and see if you still get a Checksum Error, if it still occurs then it means that you probably have a bad motherboard, otherwise, it could...

If a 7800GTX can fit, I don't see why a 7800GT can't :p Ald

maxBR: I would suggest staying away XPC Tool until it is out of beta for SN25P. I wouldn't trust something that is in beta to control the crucial components (fans) which could lead to bad bad things on failure! ;) Regarding the SATA II and information retrieval, I do not think you can find...

A long... long.... time ago ;) Ald

Updated: 10-27-2005 * Updated link for latest Nvidia Graphics Drivers. Updated: 11-05-2005 * Updated Step 5 for new nForce chipset driver 6.70. * Added new Q/A concerning slow boot times and error in Event Log. * Updated Q/A concerning the new nForce chipset driver 6.70. * Updated...

I'm not sure what fanspeed is, but have you tried speedfan? This should allow you to fine-tune the fans to a desired speed. Also, is the fan set on SmartFan within the BIOS? Have you tried another setting say... Mid - Noise? Though, I doubt this will work since it will probably just go max...

Updated: 10-15-2005 * Updated guide to reflect new VIA sound drivers 4.73b * New Q/A that concerns performance issues in regards to X2 CPU. Submitted final copy to SFFTech for posting as well. Ald

I looked at the INF file briefly of the newest released VIA Audio driver's by Shuttle and the driver number seems to be the same as the 451C. I don't think there should be much of a difference between the two but let us know :p Ald

I haven't seen many user's complain about the nForce Raid driver's personally so you would probably want to install that when doing Windows setup. Regarding A1C Bob's problem, you should run a hard drive check with your manufactur's software and see if it's not the drive itself dying. Ald

I sure had a nice experience the other night with the power supply on the SN25P and the after effects was similar to what people has experienced either in this forum or other in Sudhian so I thought I share this. I was working at my computer and all of a sudden, the computer powered itself off...

I have commented on the newest chipset driver within the Q&A below ;) Ald

I have encountered the same problem. Like cslogical, it is probably your Shuttle bundled SATA cables, but for me, it was the combination of the USB2.0/X2 and nForce IDE Driver. I suggest uninstalling the nForce IDE Driver if that is installed. Ald

Try to adjust your thumb screws in the back (loosen/tighten) and see if it helps the noise go away. I've had a similar problem where some of the thumb screw was too tight and made the case vibrate. Ald

Nope, actually ATi has announced (not sure if you can get it yet) the AIW X800XL which is native PCI-Express and that will fit in the SN25P just fine. Here's some information concerning the card. http://www.ati.com/products/radeonx800/aiwx800xl/index.html Ald

I went into my BIOS yesterday since I flashed to Y version and everything seems to be running at the their rated voltage. Also, I edited my post, maybe that should clarify some things. Ald

theacoustician, The SN25P comes with 2 4-pin molex connector. And as you stated in your original post. Therefore, another 4-pin molex connector should be shown. And the drawing is missing a Y molex splitter. The Y molex splitter is on one of the 4-pin, then I take one of the Y molex...

Last night, I have flashed my BIOS to version Y, uninstalled 5.53 chipset drivers and reinstalled with 6.66 (SMBus, Ethernet, IDE Driver), and also uninstalled video drivers 77.72 in place of 77.77 (WHQL certified). Also, I updated with all Windows XP patches that was released on Tuesday...

For my setup, I put the splitter on 1 of the 4-pin molex connections. I then simply just connected one end of the 4-pin molex connection on the end of one of the splitter and the other on the other P6. Then use the remaining molex on the splitter to power my optical drive. I have not had any...

BIOS version Y has now been officially released to resolve USB2.0 problems. http://global.shuttle.com/Download/Download_File.asp?Item=SN25P Updated: 08-11-2005 * Updated USB2.0/X2 to the final release of BIOS version Y link. * Updated step 9 in the installation guide regarding latest...

dvtonder, Here's some detailed information regarding the nForce chipset version 6.66. Within your windows\system32 folder, you should find the following files and you should confirm you have these uninstall files. nvudisp.exe - NVidia display uninstaller (If you are using a NVidia...

I'll post this as a topic of concern for users and monitor the status of this issue. Thanks for the heads up! Ald

dvtonder, I will try to write a walk-through for you and post it here when I get home from work tonight. Hopefully it is the cause of your problem. Ald

Because I'm at work :p I need to have access to my computer to get the exact pathing and file names that needs to be looked at. Also, I'm not sure if this is a global problem or it is just for a few people under special circumstances. Prior to dvtonder, I haven't seen anyone complain about...

Hi dvtonder, Do you have version 6.66 of the nForce chipset driver installed? I have experienced this problem as well under that version of the driver. It seems like nVidia forgot to include the uninstall file into the registry, thus not showing up in the add/remove programs list. If you...

Hiya Rip, Here's a few more things I would try and see if you get any results. Relax your timings more to 3-3-3-6. Just to be safe that it's not your RAM getting overheated or anything of that sort. Head into BIOS and switch your USB to legacy 1.1 and make sure it is not a conflict with...

Rip, Do you have the NAM installed that comes with the nForce chipset drivers? If you do, please uninstall and see if that solves the problem. If it is already uninstalled, I'll need to think about other possibilities. Ald

Several major updates to the guide today. Updated: 08-08-2005 * Updated question concerning the 7800GTX (Thanks to Ozoneman) * Added new question and answer regarding Hard Drive LBA. * Added new section to further troubleshoot common problems. * Added another two new questions regarding...

Ah, that sure is interesting. There's is a good and a bad side to this. The good is that you are able to fit the 7800GTX with the fan duct and not have any bend, however the bad comes to the chance of you bumping off the capacitor as people with shaky hands. But, I'll be sure to mention this...

Here ya go, hope this helps! http://forums.sudhian.com/messageview.aspx?catid=43&threadid=76604&highlight_key=y&keyword1=sn25p+fan *Edit: Probably want to scroll all the way down :p Ald

Wow, your ambient temperature does seem to be a bit too high. Perhaps your hard drives are overheating and causing your applications to prematurely shutdown. I think to further your investigation in regards to see if your random crashes is related to your ambient temperature being too high is...

Hiya Rip, I have a 7800GTX in my SN25P as well and mine temperature goes a bit higher for the GPU (70-82) on load. It is well below the throttle back temperature so yours is just fine. The power supply shouldn't be much of a problem as my configuration compared to yours is even more power...
