    USB & PS/2 Keyboard not detected by BIOS...HELP!

    Crap...I was hoping I woudn't have to go that far :( On a side note I am not able to get some sort of recognition of the Wireless Receiver when I the PS/2 adapter (i.e. it recognizes sometimes when I press the F-Lock button) but that's only after the BIOS spits out the "keyboard error" message :(

    System sleep issues?

    I haven't tried lately but I think I've tried the different settings in my BIOS with no success. Right now it is set at "S1 & S3" which I assume is S4, right? Could this be tied to maybe the motherboard not being grounded properly, RAM voltage settings or RAM timings? The RAM in the system...

    System sleep issues?

    Hey guys, I've been having some weird problems with my (custom) system for quite some time now that has prevented me from using the "Sleep" option in Windows XP, Vista and (now) Windows 7. Basically whenever I put machine to sleep manually via the start menu it will not always "fully" wake up...

    ...wow. no offense, but talk about a dumb statement. The horizontal stand was "useless" b/c it wasn't needed to make the system sit flat. It was basically just an overpriced piece of plastic that had the gradation color pattern on it.

    Wow...nice setup...but you actually wasted the $10-15 for the useless PS2 horizontal stand? :confused:

    680i expansion PCI-e slot

    Well yea...when the PPU cards cost $150+ that would be part of the problem. But if you could throw in a cheapo low end video card to do the physics then it would make a larger impact I think.

    680i expansion PCI-e slot

    I know...but the fact that you need a 3rd card to do that kinda sucks. As for the GPU physics...I wouldn't be surprised if they both scrapped their plans. Ageia doesn't really have any must-have games that use it & the big games that do use it (UT3 & GRAW 1/2) don't need it. If ATI and/or...

    680i expansion PCI-e slot

    Any problems? My experience has always been that nvidia & ati drivers don't play well together. It's annoying that if you want to do SLi you still can't output to a second monitor when you're not playing a game :rolleyes:

    680i expansion PCI-e slot

    So with all the talk about the 3-way SLi in the new 780i boards, does anyone know what the 3rd (middle) PCI-e slot on the 680i SLi boards is used for? I remember hearing a while back about ATI and nvidia possible working on the ability to allow for a lower end video card to be used as a...

    That entire "Reflections" icon/PNG set is quite sexy. I'm in the middle of setting up my office computer with them as soon as I get my last bit of work done.
