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.
This happened to me and after alot of googling found it has happened to quite alot of people.
I used Recuva to get them back, had to do a clean install of Vista after I recovered my files though.
Turned out to be an updated driver for my onboard LAN that Windows Update gave me. I rolled back to the driver that Vista installed when I installed Vista and it works fine.
Thanks for the help though guys.
Bit of a strange one this. First time I put Vista (Ultimate) on I used the upgrade option from XP, everything worked fine including my downloads.
My HDD failed so I replaced it and clean installed Vista. Now my downloads are very slow and hang all the time. I get around 40k for about 10...
Just built an FX57 7800GTX Gamer Edition SLI rig with an Asus A8N-SLi Premium nForce4 SLi mb for my mate and it is one of the easiest and stable overclockers I have used :D
Pity I have to give it my mate tomorrow :(
Not all cards display what it is at boot, depends if it is in the cards BIOS. Not sure why it is hanging booting up though. What power supply do you have?
