Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Was thinking about getting this case (dual 120mm fans, pretty lightwieght and easy to carry around), but the only quibble I have is that I'm really not sure the HS can fit. I love my ATC-110 but its just so big! If anyone has this setup or knows if it will/will not work please tell me.
As a...
nm, it's fixed. It was the cable select.
However, he removed the floppy drive and that's what was apparently causing the 5 min delay...don't know what that's about. Maybe bios boot ordering? He has it cd->hd->floppy so i duno. Regardless it's installing windows now. Thanks for the...
alright, more info.
Apparently he didn't put it in cable select. It's a new drive so I doubt it would be failing, but you never know. Without the CD hooked up to the IDE chan, it detects the HD very fast. But with both of them hooked up (one in each channel), it takes about 5 mins to...
Just ran diagnostics. They waited for the windows thign to finish and it couldn't find the hard drive. Ran HD diag and it couldn't find the hard drive either....
But bios detects the hard drive, albeit after a long time (but it shows in in the bios screen). HD is a WD 80 gig. Don't know...
My friend just assembled a new computer and to his knowledge has conneted everything correctly. Abit NF7-S board, ATI 9600XT I think, 2 sticks of 512 RAm, floppy, CD, and HD. What happens is that he boots up, bios detects everything correctly, so he sticks the XP cd in there and reboots.
Then...
there was some dust on there which i blew off an it dropped it a couple of degrees (this was from 60 to around what it is now). I will try reseating the heatsink.
ALright, where to start...
I bought the SLK-900 (or 800?) for my 2500 and proceeded to put it on. Much to my dismay when I booted up I got around 45-50 idle, with the ambient being around 30 c. I was able to overclock however to 3200 with a load of around 55-56 so that was acceptable for...
