    Does anyone know if this type of hard drive is anywhere near reliable, or does factory recertified mean crap when it comes to hard drives? Any input would be helpful. -thx

    Windows 7 Ethernet Error

    Tried that one as well, so far no luck with anything I've been pointed to. I'm thinking I'll have to wait until the next realtek release for windows 7 (if that ever comes)

    Windows 7 Ethernet Error

    Everything I have listed so far has not worked. The LAN test in the BiOS shows a connection and ubuntu connects, so i'm thinking it's an issue of finding the right driver that would match this mobo with Windows 7 64-bit RC.

    Windows 7 Ethernet Error

    I just switched over my components to a new case and a Gigabyte P45 UD3P. My Ubuntu 9.04 partition connects to the internet no problem. But when I boot up my Windows 7 64-bit RC, no connection to the internet is detected. I tried to install the drivers from the dvd that came with the...

    Can I fit a GTX 260

    I'm thinking of getting an Antec 300 or Cooler Master 590. Does anyone have any pics of a GTX 260 (or similar form factor) fitting in this case. Also, is there plenty of space between the dvd drives and the mobo (getting a GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P)? Any comments would be helpful.

    Memory Dump Caused BSOD

    yea, i had my e5200 overclocked to 3.3 for about 6 months until I got this chip, then I had my e7500 overclocked to 3.6 for about 3 weeks before this whole fiasco started. Right now CPU-ID is showing 1.304 core V with my overclock being stepped back to 3.3 for the e7500. So far it's been...

    Memory Dump Caused BSOD

    Stepping back the multiplier from 11x to 10x seems to have solved the issue. Didn't forsee this happening though, since my core temps rarely hit 50 degrees C even under load. Just thought that was a little weird

    Memory Dump Caused BSOD

    Ran 12 passes of memtest while I was at work, no errors. Guess bad RAM is out of the question.

    Memory Dump Caused BSOD

    ended up staying up a bit longer, you mean the .dmp files kipper? another side note, when running Intel Burn test, it runs fine for each setting except maximum stress (100% memory load) in which case it fails immediately. The other lesser memory-intensive options run fine for however long.

    Memory Dump Caused BSOD
