Mr.Guvernment

what re the compuetrs IP's? are your sharing 2 diff ip's from your ISP or just 1 ip - into the router - then your 2 systems.. ? have you shared and directotories and made sure theya re in the same workgroup?

check for any jumpers that need to be set on the mobo to tell it the FSB of the AMD chip.... also a 350w is not very strong for todays cpu's. so use the larger one - if it starts up then shutdown it means you PSU is not good enough. also - does your mobo handle that cpu... and that ram - alot of mobo makers are picky about what ram you use.

the 2.4 is the sweet chip and alwyas has been for the 2.4 (a,b,c) - the 2.6 and 2.8 o/c well - around 3.1 average - the 2.4 however are the ones that u can hit 3.5 with the right parts and cooling on average 3.2ghz and above often on stock cooling and voltage/ Also 1 stick of ram overclocks better then anything - but if u want dual channel. also - it is better to get dual 512 then quad 256's.

if you buying that motherboard - get a p4 2.4 and u can easily overclock it to over 3ghz with stock cooling and fan! simply by increase something in the bios - FSB. if your NOT going to overclock - thet motherboard is COMPLETE overkill for you.

check in your bios be sure the bios is set to look in AGP forst for a video card. also, i dont beleive they do makea ti4200 in PCI - so u sure u got an AGP card? (brown slot?)

take the card out and reseat it...

3.2 upto 4.1 have worked fine for me what is it detecting u have windows 64? where in the installtion does it do that?

i got a built in sound card - got latest drivers but still does it

play a game @ 24FPS - complaints - yes it is because games and televions use different settings to go between frames - television uses aa "blur" effect i beleive while games dont - there for it is easier to see frames in computers - due to the much high resolutions as well on PC's almost anyone can see the difference between 24FPS @ 1024 x 769 compareds to say 50FPS. - the human eye for some people can see the diff upto 200FPS and higher - yes, - it is humnaly possible.

pccilling 2003 mt uncle uses and it is fast and efficient and works great Also if antivirus slows down my system ona p4 2.4 - then i think there is an issue with the program, i use symanten copr 8.01 and i have it on highest heuristic - scan,create ,modify files it scans it and i show NO slow down - how ever i had 2004PRO norton - and it just stank! Quote: And to call names: though they're not the cheapest, Norton and McAfee are still the most popular AV choices, and there's a good reason for that. So their is a good reason why Intel is in more computers then AMD? Even though AMD new CPu's are better then intel in many cases.....? has little to do with whether it is a good product or not now-a-days - it is all about marketing and making deals with other companies.

i hope u now have anti-V protection and learn not to open emails form people dont know

are you abel to do a format and fresh install? or even a repair of the O/S? have you tried booting into Safe mode and installing? frankly to me it sounds like that program delete stuff it should not have.

nope - no reason at all if your not running some massive file server or something that is maxing out your NIC's bandwidth.

^^^ lol well - arent PC's useless anyways? - oh wait, that is MAC's hehehhe

try doing a repair install from the cd...

well if u dont mind now being able to upgrade your cpu - go nuts! this deal u got - who was the email from? was it a legit deal or some company selling crap refurb'd mobos i have never had such bad experiences as you and i have ahd my hands on so many colmpuetrs i can not recall! i think your justr cursed. Also - get an SGI work station and run a REAL version of UNIX

okay anyone here know about these? a company from here is going out of buisness and they have a Silicon Graphics Octane system - not sure of cpu or ram - havgin a new HD put into it - also was told about $20k in software installed (not sure if i can get the cds) Anyways, this will come with a 19' SGI monitor as well - all of this for $1000US http://www.sgi.com/products/remarketed/weekly_specials.html#octane Is it worth it? seems like it to me - i tried to find used ones and with out a monitor they ran for about $1500+ So any feedback on these system would be great!

hehe well - the best i could get was another 512mb fo ram and to update it form a single pIII 733 to dual 1ghz and 1 more 76g ultra320 scso drive about $1200 in upgrades.

werll, kind of automated - check it out! Quote: W1zzard's ATI overclocking tool 0.0.12 is the BOMB! Come and get it fellas! Its at this [H]ardOCP thread http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=2425018#post2425018 It works great. It has a "find core" and "find memory" overclock feature which will increase the mhz automatically and test each elevation in speed for artifacts automatically as well. There is a little D3D graphics box that pops up which is the artifact tester and after you find your max oc you can use the little D3D box as a benchmark for fps. This is a very nice program. Thanks W1zzard!!! Sorry Nvidiots this is a ATI only proggy http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=2425018#post2425018

Quote: Creature of habit here... I feel apps should look like apps, not webpages. yeah - i want an app that is eqasy to navigate and feels solid - not this stuff that looks like it is opened in and IE window - just seem or looks "unreliable" to me

The program will automatically adjust the memory frequency - or core, which aver you choose - while it does that ot ahs a direct3d window to the left which is testing azs it goes up - no reboothing this and that does it on the fly! i had my running all last night and it found my best ram to be @ 348.26 - oi saw it go as high as 354 but i guess it was no stable so it automatically goes down until the program will run with out errors. some info from someone else Quote: Quote: : Originally posted by Mr.Guvernment does anyone know exactly how it works? as in how does it read the error automtically type deals? Based on the tiny amount of info in the thread over t[h]here, it appearst that he's rendering a cube and constantly comparing it to what it should look like. If any output from the card differs from the reference image, the program can tell how many pixels are wrong (X of ??? pixels) and how wrong they are (delta of X). The cube (one face of which you see when finding max OC) seems to be made of many different 'blobs' which are scattered throughout the cube to make it seem as though it's solid (based on what it looks like to me anyway ). By using many different textures for the blobs, he can stress the RAM and detect when an error has occured. For GPU testing, it uses somekind of reflection (bicubic refleciton??) that W1zzard said tended to highlight artifacts well. JigPu

maybe the ISP needs to simply restart one of it's routers - or even replace it?

does the other person u are ttrying to msn to have the same version of MSN? get msn 6 if u do not have it and try it. if it works with everything else - i woudl say it is msn messenger that is furbar'd.

hard Drives - constant moving parts wearing out slowly over time DVD - no moving parts - can store away safe and last for hundreds of years if treated right. your best bet as mentioned is to use a combination of both disk back up and a hard drive. Possibly consider hotswapable har drives that u just pop in when backing up and take out so it is not constantly running.
