Does it give you that "CPU is unworkable or been changed. Please recheck - CPU SOFT <something I can't make out>" error every boot?

Thanks. :D I can't use it in this case anyways with any mods. All 120mm. ;) I just wanted to see how much air it can push. :)

While cleaning my desk, I found a 80mm 24volt 0.11A fan. Is there anyway to hook this up with a standard ATX PSU? It pushes quite a bit of air with 12v, can't wait to see what it can do with 24v. :D

bump.

For sale: Netgear MR814NA 11mbps 4port wireless router, used for only a month. Still has original box. Asking $25 shipped. They cost $40 plus shipping on newegg.

Just a 120mm exhaust fan in the rear, and the PSU exhaust fan. Northbridge, CPU, and Video have fans too. I really need to get some more fans for this thing, 50C idle with the case side on. :( Drops to 38-41C with case side off. I'm thinking of getting 2x 120mm 103cfm fans to replace...

Try "F10". If that doesn't work, refer to the manual of that model.

Bump.

A 486. :p

I would think it's AMD/nVidia. They nForce is for AMD after all. ;)

For sale: Pentium 4 1.8GHz. On chip says 1.8GHz/256/400/1.75V. Socket 478. Asking $35. If you want I'll throw in a heatsink and fan, just pay for the shipping. Package weighs 4.5oz wo/ heatsink. My zipcode is 48317 if you want to find how much the shipping would be. I have...

Site is down for me...

Lian-Li, Cooler master, Antec. IMO, of course.

bump.

For sale: Netgear MR814v2. Has original box. I have only used it for about 2 months. Asking $28 + shipping. My heatware is greghelton.

My eyes!!! :eek: That has got to be one of the ugliest cases ever.

Working for me.

I've gotten it from Meijers. Not sure if they have them in NY. They also have it here: http://www.first-aid-product.com/industrial/isopropyl-alcohol.htm

I've replaced the fan in one of my PSU's before when the stock fan motor burnt out. All I had to do is solder the red and black wires where the old ones were.

Safari. :)

I bought a iBook G3 from MicroCenter. Awesome little laptop. Mine came with 640mb of ram, combo drive (tray), and Airport for the $799 :eek: Either the ad is wrong, or I got something special :D It's the newer style casing so it looks just like the iBook G4 except that it just says...

No, they're stuck on the left side.

iBook G3 900MHz, 640mb ram 29sec. from video on to the logon screen

I'm waiting for the Powerbook G5's :D

I haven't used it, but you may want to look at GarageBand http://www.apple.com/ilife/garageband/

ssh into them and do sudo shutdown -r now

Very easy. Just lift up the keyboard, plug the little cord in, and slide it in the slot. No tools required.

I know gettin a card to work with it IS possible, as I'm almost certain Claire's (that stupid girly store) has the same monitor plugged into a p3 rig running 98. So either hack it up and make it a vga cable and split the 12v to somewhere else or look for an old CGA PCI card.

Your joking right ? :rolleyes: Doom ]|[ may come on 1 DVD, I highly doubt it's install files will take up 40gb :p No Games are going to need 64bit for a LONG time. If ever. Anywho, CoD runs fine for me w/ no slow downs with F@H and Gaim running in the background. I have 512mb of DDR266.

I find alcohol and paper towel removes thermal paste just fine. No need for that fancy expensive stuff :)

Make sure you put the standoffs on correctly. I've grounded out 2 motherboards not putting them in all the way. First one lost the PSU fuse and 2nd survived with no ill effects. On cases wo/ mobo trays I put the cpu/sink in after I mount the mobo in the case, and w/ trays I mount the mobo...

I have a really old OEM Logitech keyboard from around '99. Very, very sturdy and well built. This looks alot like it. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=23-126-134&catalog=63&manufactory=BROWSE&depa=1 Inexpensive too :)

I spit on my screen and wipe it off with my sleeve :) Windex works also. :p

All the CRT's in my house keep me nice and warm during the cold months :)

It does put out voltage. When I plug my 15" in wo/ the power cord all the leds and stuff turn on, just not the tube. A 9" monochrome tube don't need much power and prolly can be powered via the VGA. If it doesn't work, just sell it again on ebay ;) There are other NCR 7450 series monitors...

Ramfart: Way to expensive ($75 is minium order :o) Zardoz: I don't have Reynolds alum. foil. Think a cheap off-brand from the local supermarket will work ? :p Thanks for the suggestions. :) Edit: Alum. Foil didnt work at all. Maybe I'm using it wrong ? :confused:

Has happened to me before too. Still works fine.

It should work just fine. VGA is VGA ;) But really, it should work fine. A 9" monochrome doesn't need much power, and a VGA does put out quite a bit of power.

What kind of laptop is it ? My old Dell did the same thing. Processor wasn't in the the socket all the way and would turn on for a sec and turn off. 5 minutes fixed that for free ;)

If it's old enough not boot from CD, I highly doubt it can boot from USB. I think externel floppy MAY be your only choice. Also what OS are you installing ? 98 ? Then a laptop hd to desktop hd convertor might work. I know you prolly would have problems if you were using a NT based OS...
