    DDR PC3200 - Mixing Question, Please Help!

    I doubt it would be the chipset, since either of the 2 will work (i.e. 2 x 2-2-2-5 512MB sticks = 1GB dual channel or 2 x 2-3-3-6 1GB sticks = 2GB dual channel), would it?

    The MoBo I am using in that comp, is a generic intel board, which doesn't have any options about voltage or timings. Any other ideas? Thanks. SuperG

    DDR PC3200 - Mixing Question, Please Help!

    Hi all, I am having trouble with one of my computers. I have an Intel P4 2.8 GHz Hyper Thread CPU. My mobo has 4 DDR PC3200 slots. Two channels, DIMM 1 & 3, and DIMM 2 & 4. I had 2 Corsair TwinX 2-2-2-5 512MB chips installed. So, DIMM 1 = Corsair 512MB and DIMM 3 = Corsair 512MB...

    ABIT IS7 - Weird DDR Slot Failure Issue - Please HELP?

    Thanks for the reply. I don't think I can RMA anymore can I, since it has been 5 yrs? I agree that it has done well for the amount it has been used. It wasn't quite 24x7 for 5 yrs, but it was close. Also, what is a POST Test card? My biggest problem is trying to find a replacement board...

    ABIT IS7 - Weird DDR Slot Failure Issue - Please HELP?

    Hi guys, I need some help. I have an IS7, which I have had for about 4-5 yrs now. Well, I have been having some very weird things going on with it these past few months. It seems like something is up with the DDR Slots. The board has 4 slots. All this time I had been using Slot 0 &...

    Live Linux - Virus / Spyware Removal?

    Thanks for the replies. I agree with both posts, for someone like me who is relatively tech savvy, etc. However, I am the "computer guy" in my group of friends, and inevitably my friends will call me needing help with their computer because they got a virus / spyware and expect me to take care...

    Live Linux - Virus / Spyware Removal?

    I am not sure if this exists or if it has been asked before, but I was wondering if there was a live Linux CD out there, which could boot up into Linux and then be able to scan a hard drive for Windows Virus / Spyware. Sometimes Viruses make a computer virtually unbootable into Windows, so it...

    Computer Hangs after POST and Drive Detection - Please Help

    Well, just thought I would give an update. I have no idea what the heck is happening, but I got my computer working again. Basically it was the DDR Slots. The IS7 has 4 DDR Slots. Previously, I had 1 GB total (2x512 of RAM). They were running Dual channel, with 1 512 stick in slot 0 and 1...

    Computer Hangs after POST and Drive Detection - Please Help

    Thanks for the response. Never thought about the cable. However, have already tried the one drive at a time idea. See above, I tried systematically to try each drive by itself. I don't think it is a bad drive or even a bad cable, because as I have said, the computer doesn't seem to get to...

    Computer Hangs after POST and Drive Detection - Please Help

    Hi all, I don't know what to do. My computer all of a sudden stopped working. Here is the background. I have a P4 2.8 GHz Hyper Thread CPU and an Abit IS7 Motherboard. I have 1 GB (2x512 Corsair TwinX). Then I have 2 PATA Hard Drives on IDE 1 and I have 2 PATA CD/DVD Drives on IDE 2...

    FM Transmitter

    Thanks for the quick reply. I was actually hoping for one that would be like $15 or less. There was this company a while back called Newer Tech, which made one that had just the 1/8th inch plug and it was good quality and $15, but I can't seem to find it anywhere anymore. I am trying to find...
