@ockie - If this is going to cost a fortune then we won't do it. We are going to have to replace our monitors here soon and the savings in that cost alone would almost purchase an 8-port. This would allow us to be more productive and I could even tie it into our service database. At the...

Hey guys, here at work we're looking for an ip-based kvm switch (8-port) that would allow multiple users in at once. This switch will be connected to all of our computers that we're working on (we're a computer repair shop) so that people from different places in the office can work on...

If anyone isn't going to use their preview weekend, I'd love to give this game a shot :).

Yes, I have an older sony DRU laying around. I was trying to avoid that because I don't have any spare molexes and I haven't seen the rest of my modular cables in some time. I'll try it out when I get the chance and I'll let you know how that works.

I've tried booting to a 32-bit server 2008 cd with no luck either. I can access all of the data if I get into windows. My main problem right now is that EVE online is not recognizing arialuni.ttf in C:\Windows\Fonts\. That file disappeared after the crash and I've tried getting the file from...

no! I'm done with overclocking for quite a while, bios is set to default other than the raid setting.

Hey guys, I installed server 08 from a DVD I was given in a package from a Heroes Happen Here event. I put it in, it installed just fine. Just recently I was overclocking, my machine locked up in the middle of a game, now eve online doesn't work and a few things are acting funky. What I want...

pick me !?#$

Hey guys, if you look in my recent history I've posted some problems i've been having with my p5b deluxe. Mainly hot boot problems and stability issues. To make a long story short, it started out as a computer with a p5n-e. P5N-E Windows Vista Ultimate 2x1GB Corsair Dominator 1066...

Hey guys, every since i've had this board in my system I have a problem in that if I turn my computer all the way off after it's been running for a while, then turn it back on, it will refuse to boot and the 8800gtx's fan will spin at 100%. Usually if I wait 5 mins this problem will go away...

If you're still talking about keeping that chassis and motherboard that came with that dell, just have a look at the 20 pin connector and make sure that it's the same as a standard atx power supply. We've had a couple dells in at my workplace that were the same design with some really funky...

I wonder if that's the series that had the funky power supplies with the different pin-outs on the 20-pin and the special 6 pin connector. I have a similar sized case sitting here, but i'm not seeing a way you could easily add a 120mm to silence it. If you can find some way to jimmy rig a...

I actually had hostility from my online friends when I changed from AMD to Intel. I have been an AMD fan for a while, I went with an intel processor this build, and I literally no longer talk to quite a few of my old buddies because they were so dead set on AMD that they were telling me I...

Don't worry, I answered my own question. The board will support less than 2a on each header. You can have as many fans plugged in as long as you don't use any y connectors or such as long as the amount of current coming out of the header doesn't reach 2a. That's a lot of power, this comes...

Hey guys, I'm looking to connect three high speed fans to this motherboard. All together they will be consuming ~15W. Is this OK or should I get a fan controller to control the fans? Thanks! Edit: Plus the two Dynatron A5LG hsf which are probably 3W a piece, so >20W through the...

They sent me xms2 ddr2-1066 to replace my dominator. I was immediately unable to reach my 500 fsb with the xms2 ddr2 memory

Does anyone have any other suggestions. I didn't know that the fan was a necessary addition.

Hey guys, I have an e6300 on a p5b-deluxe board. The memory I'm having problems with is corsair dominator pc2-8500 ddr2-1066 memory. I overclock the system to 3.5 ghz (500 fsb) and in the p5b-deluxe I select the lowest memory setting (which oddly changes as I overclock) which is 1033mhz. I...

Well, the 3.5ghz overclock ended up eating up my other stick of dominator memory. It no longer boots with the dominator memory in there. I was leaving it at 2.25v, and the bios speed said around 1030 speeds. My first stick went bad on the p5n-e sli at 3.5 ghz also. Oh well, I have the RMA on...

in the antec nine-hundred it'll leave enough room for a standard-size 120mm fan, not the thicker (38mm) fan. If you wanted to you could probably make a 38mm fan fit, you'd just have to completely remove one of the ears on it, which I'm not sure how it would react to losing that much structure.

what did you have your nb voltage at to reach 525? I guess I never tried moving mine to 1.65 to get to 525, I left it at 1.55. The rest of the voltages were pretty much as high as i'd like them to go. It took a bump to 1.45 vcore to boot at 510, I bumped the vcore up to 1.48 to try to get 515...

Thanks guys, before this, the most I was ever able to overclock was 200-300 mhz and that was on a very early opteron. This has been a much different experience. I do agree that that is a little toasty, but unless I start constantly maxing out the cpu soon I don't think i'm going to worry about...

Hey guys, just wanted to report that I reached a 17 hour orthos stable 3.5 ghz 500 fsb on my new p5b deluxe motherboard. I just recently replaced an unstable p5n-e sli motherboard with this one, and have been impressed by it quite a bit. On my p5n-e sli I was able to reach 500 fsb, but after a...

Will an updated bios fix it?

Hey guys, speedfan is telling me that my AUX temp is 127C. Is this a known problem, should I shut my computer down before it explodes? Thanks

Well, it appears I got one of those finicky P5N-E SLI motherboards. I put my good ram (still waiting on the 2nd stick to be rma'd) in the 2nd slot instead of the first (black instead of yellow). I've been running stable ever since yesterday afternoon. This will at least get me by until I get...

Can I RMA it with no heatsink on the NB? like i said, I cut the plastic pins that keep the stock NB cooler on, so I can't put that on again. Edit: Oh yeah, and I have my SB heatsink thermal epoxy'd to the SB, that isn't coming off any time soon ;)

I'm trying a different cpu as we speak, I'll let you know how it goes. I just heard a rumor from my friend that they had problems with that on the 680i, didn't know it applied to the 650i too :(

After I found out that I had a bad memory module, I had reset the bios to all stock speeds. Before I had all of this happen, my computer was rock stable at any voltage I would set it to. The only thing i've done different since the bad memory module was put the good module in slot 1, maybe...

I repalced the NB heatsink with an HR-05 and snipped off the plastic retainers on the stock, so i won't be able to send it back for RMA. Specifics are - Everything's left to auto other than the voltage and timing on the memory. Memory timings - 5-5-5-15 2.2v

Is there any chance the cpu could be shot? It won't stay up through the night, always has a stop error code when I get up in the morning (it's at the login screen, login and it says there was an error). I just want to make sure that I get the right thing :)

Hi, I just recently assembled a computer with these specs E6300, 2x1GB Corsair dominator pc2-8500, evga 8800gtx ko, Asus p5n-e sli. I'm running this in a server 2003 enterprise environment. Last thursday I received my cooling parts (Scythe Ninja, HR-05, and a standard southbridge...

I found the problem, my P-ATA cable hooked to my optical drive wasn't plugged in all the way. Thanks for the help :)

Well the thing is it was working, and now it isn't, i assume that's what was happening to the badaxe2's also?

Hey guys, my HDD activity light on my antec 900 case is constantly on, this is a p5n-e sli mobo. I've been having problems for a day now with this machine, mainly a memory module went bad. I just wanted to know if this is something to worry about. The indexing service is disabled, and the...

It was the memory. One of my corsair dominator xms2 8500 modules went bad, guess I'll be running at 1GB for a little while. Thx for the help

Hey guys, I just posted the night before last about my success with overclocking my p5n-e sli machine. Well that success has since turned into a nightmare. I was able to post into windows at 500 fsb. Yesterday afternoon it started acting up, freezing up in anything 3d, so I went to bed last...

Hey guys, just wanted to comment on some observations I had while putting this system together. 1. This c2d e6300 rocks 2. The X-pattern on the scythe ninja isn't only for looks or airflow, it's to get to the bracket 3. The scythe ninja took my temps from stock 60*C to new heatsink 40*C...

I just thought i'd drop by and say that I'm running 1T timings in what looks to be stable conditions. I'll run it through a stress test tonight and see what happens, but i just made it through quite a few 3dm06 runs. The motherboard is running the bios that shipped with it, and my memory is in...

I'm having the same issue, if you would call it that. I was expecting 13k to 14k marks, i'm at 11882. My settings/specs are - e6300 @ 3.34 ghz (antec nine-hundred case) evga 8800GTX acs3 KO (658mhz core, 2 ghz memory) 2gb corsair dominator pc2-8500 memory 2x raptor 36gb in raid 0...
