    HUGE (unsafe?) temp spike on 2 x 100% usage??!!

    Hey all, I just installed an E5200 2.5gig x 2 processor. I haven't used intel in quite a while but I am very excited about this processor. However, I had trouble getting the HSF on correctly (but finally did) and my idle temps are ~31C. I just tried to burn a dvd w/ a program that uses...

    2 gb ram (2x 1gb) reporting as 1 gb

    I have 2x1 gb pc3200 ram in my main rig. Some time in the past who knows how long i am reporting only 1 gb in winXP and in memtest. Memtest works out ok for the 1gb I'm reporting but I've never, ever seen a ram chip go out and not hard lock the system. for more info, PAE is reported as...

    My HTPC, the egg is assembling the order.

    Many of you might just think that this is a little overboard. However, it is KEY to have dual cores so that the conversion of VHS to DVD can be continued while actually using the DVR functions. At least, I feel that way. Also, the bang/buck is pretty good. . . I forsee this being a nice rig...

    SFF system: Balancing $$ with performance with upgradeability

    I've fallen out of keeping up with *every* hardware revolution since the days of the athalonXP's and the 9800XT were kings. SOOO, I'm now building a SFF system for a HTPC and some gaming. There's a lot out there and I'd like opinions on what I'm seeing as options. First, what I have on...

    2 platter HD. .. idle thoughts. .

    ok, so pretty much every guide says to put you OS and stuff where the HD access it fastest. If there are 2 HD platters are they in effect striped via "platter RAID" or is there some magic "sweet spot" where you start hitting the other platter for faster access about halfway through your HD...

    FS: 2000XP, GF3Ti200 Upgrade Mom's computer!

    I have the two listed parts available. The 2000XP has not been overclocked, so I don't know if you can push it or not. I ran it just fine at stock speeds for ~1 year. The GF3Ti200 (64meg I think...I'm at work) is the Gainward "golden sample" card that has a guaranteed overclock. I ran it at...

    win2k pro regcleaner (or equivalent)??

    well, my registry is starting to bloat a little and I'd like to run something like the nifty regclean utility that was in win98. Now, I *KNOW* that it is still available and *SHOULD* work fine with win3k, but has anyone actually tried it around here? or some third party cleaner? thx for...
