    Samsung 2TB green drives defective firmware?

    I think you have to change your working directory to where the app is, so cd x:\, then run the executable. A previous poster had the same issue. Hope that helps.

    BestBuy Black Friday Inventories

    I had planned on getting the $250 laptop and the $500 LCD TV by camping the store at 8pm on Thursday. Before my wife and I were going to head out though, we found out that there was a very long line already at BB that started at 9am. Gives me a reason to save the money :(

    Which screw do I use to attach the motherboard

    That's funny. When I put in my first MB, I actually used the wrong screws in the mounting screws. I used screws with threads too big and ended up stripping the thread on one of the mounting holes in a Lian li case. Anyway, try the screws with the smaller threads. Or, just try the screws and...

    Computer won't boot

    if there isn't a reset jumper, you can remove the cmos battery for a second and then plug it back in. That should reset them to factory defaults. Also, make sure you have good contact with the processor from the waterblock. Did you use a thermal compound between the WB and the CPU? If not...

    Computer won't boot

    Did it post fine before you cleaned it? Is it possible that coolant from the exos could have leaked onto the mb? Did you try resetting the bios?

    MSI Neo4 Plat problem - return it?

    I'm getting a little tired of this MB. I have emailed MSI (I would have called them, but it's saturday) about the problems to see if they would by chance have any advice for me. First, I was looking forward to using CoreCenter's auto-overclock feature to test the maximum fsb current configs...

    MSI Diamond SLI / Neo 4 Platinum

    Just to clarify, I have a 500w blue storm. I'm using Zalmans surround headphones with the onboard sb chip and it works great. I don't turn up the volume more than 5% because it gets VERY loud. The only complaint about the Forton is that CoreCenter reports the +12v line as 11.84. Thats not...

    official MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI thread

    Alright - I have had this board for almost a week now. Of course I didn't get the d-bracket with it, but I plan on calling MSI about that to see if they'll ship one out to me since I expected it ( I didn't really, but it mentions it on the box so hey, why not). The CoreCenter is only OK. I...

    official MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI thread

    You really don't need the xp-120. I ordered the xp-90 because of the incompatibility issue. It works great! I have not been over 33C with my 92cm tornado running at only 1775 rpm (out of 4900). Uped the vcore 3.3% and OC'd with corecell (for now) to 2 ghz Anyway, I haven't had a chance to...

    Which is faster? AMD 64 system or Prescott system OC'd (my budget is $2500-$3000)

    Yeah, good point. . . But, I'm sure I'm not the only techno-lust adicted user here (Hi, my name is Eric and I've been addicted for 8 years now. . .). Actually, I haven't been looking at parts or reading that many reviews the last few days because of that post. I've been spending a lot of time...

    Which is faster? AMD 64 system or Prescott system OC'd (my budget is $2500-$3000)

    I definatly want to face the challange of water setup and the overclocking is a must just because I want challanges. I would be using the computer primarily for gaming. I'm finding more and more articles about overclocking the athlon64, but I'm confident I can find a 30 cap 3.0c or a 3.0e that...

    Which is faster? AMD 64 system or Prescott system OC'd (my budget is $2500-$3000)

    Hey, I've been doing lots of research on the potential of the system I want to build. I have looked extensively at intel and only a little at AMD. I am aware that AMD builds better stocks than intel, but I believe I can accomplish a lot with a prescott overclocked. Basically, I am wondering...
