I believe he may be slightly confused by other posts if he thinks most are suggesting you reinstall your OS after a RAM swap. It is usually necessary to reinstall your OS after a motherboard swap, but a RAM swap is a very basic procedure, there is absolutely no need to reinstall your OS afterwards.
Can't seem to get that link to load. :S Anyways, it's generally ill advised to mix memory, but you really shouldn't run into problems. Note that it will also not only use the slower speed, but the slower timings as well. Make sure it's set to a voltage that both DIMMs will operate at and you...
Thread title reflects my main concern, but I had a few questions actually.
I received some new hardware for Christmas, however I've run in to some issues. At first I couldn't get the system to POST, and couldn't get anything on screen. The post lights indicated a memory failure. I tried...
So yeah, I only have a folder on it right now for a companie's website I'm working on, half the time it's completely clean, the other half I might have 67543347657635 files on it. I see my computer desktop like a real life desktop, a work space, not something to trash with shortcuts and whatnot :p
Hello all, I have an issue with SUPER. I have a 2GB AVI file that I'd like to compress so I can youtube it. To do this, I'm using SUPER. Back when I had winXP, SUPER worked great for everything I used it for. However on Vista when I try to encode it as an AVI file, I have no sound, and when...
I couldn't find a proper driver at first either. What I did (vista 64 + Zyxel m-202) for my adapter is first I hooked up my laptop and used ICS to get an internet connection, then used windows update to get the proper driver. Hope this helps!
I'm surprised you haven't gotten an answer yet. Assuming you aren't running anyything like nvtray, right click the desktop and go to the nvidia control panel. Make sure it's set to advanced settings. Go to manage 3d settings, and scroll down to the very bottom setting. Set it to force off.
What exactly are you trying to boot from? If you burnt it yourself, it may be a bad burn, try burning it again at a slower speed and possibly a different brand of CDs.
When you first turn your PC on, look down at the bottom of the screen, you should see something that says "Hit the del key to enter setup" or "hit F2 to enter BIOS" or something like that. Hit the key it tells you too and you'll come up to a blue screen (probably anyways, it may be gray or...
But at the same time, they emailed you letting you know that they got it though, right? I'm just worried because I never heard anything from them, despite my email being include in the letter, plus I figured they would have it on file anyways.
As far as that letter goes, I had to include a...
I was just wondering if perhaps anyone who has experience RMAing with Razer could clear up my worries. I had a pair of razer barracuda HP-1 headphones just die completely on me randomly, on Christmas day.... heh, anyways, after exchanging emails with razer support, they gave me an RMA number...
I had tried disabling just about anything with word "memory" in it actually, then enabled everything I disabled, nothing worked :P
Anyways, when I first built the system and installed Vista, I had 2 1GB DIMMS. I then bought a second kit right after Christmas, exact same model, so that I had...
Yes, it's actually ctrl + F1, and really all that uncovers is timing options. Thanks for the suggestion though. I don't feel it's a hardware issue actually, as the BIOS shows the proper amount, 4028MB. Or 4294967296K during post :P
Ahhh, the good ol' "I only have 3.5 gigs showing" threads. Well mine is a tad bit unique.

Thanks for your reply :) I'm not entirely sure what you've asked, I've tried it on another system and it worked. That was a few days ago, the system used winxp with a 9600XT and a P4-3GHz. However as of today that system quit POSTing. I'll work on it later on if necessary. I don't have...
Ok, so everybody knows nVidia didn't have the best drivers in Vista, especially in the TV-out department. Well, in Vista, XP and kubuntu, I never could get TV-out to work. At all. I've searched google, searched nad posted at the nvidia forums, still don't have a solution. My TV is a piece of...

Very VERY bored.

Actually, when i installed my SATA hard disk, it formatted it automatically. Go to start > Run and type "diskmgmt.msc". From there look for the hard disk you just installed. If its not there, reboot, and check the to make sure the BIOS is reading it. You may...
Hmm, I'll give it a shot. Thanks alot for the info, I was afraid i may have just messed it up for good.
Thanks to everyone that helped me out!

the megs of vRAM you have is not incredibly important, its just one of the many factors along with gpu/mem clocks and pipelines that determine how well a card performs. Actually, 512MB of vRAM is only beneficial if you plan to run really high resos.
