    NB heatsink replacement project + pictures

    After weeks of procrastination I finally got around to upgrading the North Bridge heatsink on my Epox 8K3A+. Through the posts of others at a couple of non-SF forums, I found that people were reporting significant gains in FSB overclocking stability once the miserable stock NB heatsink was...

    [NEWS] - Nvidia Nforce 2 may have serious problems

    Now there is a pic you oughta share with us, Merc. :wink: I wonder what percentage of the complaints are for problems related to legitimate use and what percent are from overclockers having trouble running the MB, RAM, and CPU beyond their designated frequencies?

    Opera 7.02 released yesterday.

    No, don't. See the user comment on this page. On top of that, the "open page in background" and "open in new window" right-click-menu functions are broken in 7.02----(They work fine in 7.01)

    WD400JB Just Died

    I used an 800JB in the PC I built my father. If I could do it over again I would use a Seagate ATA IV ( a V if they were available). The 800JB has too loud an idle. Fortunately it doesn't bother him any.

    nForceFX chipset for Socket-A duallie

    A blurb posted at hardocp makes mention of this possibility...They have a blueprint of the motherboard posted. It has some interesting features, to say the least.

    Replacement thermal pads

    Thermal pads are a poor substitute for quality thermal grease. They don't have nearly the heat transfer ability. A large syringe of Arctic Silver 3 is enough to do dozens of CPU's and you could be reassured that you are getting the best possible heat transfer from CPU-to-heatsink. AS3 is also...

    XP Modem weirdness

    XP worked great with my USR 5610B. Never any problems. I like to request that a moderator washes Tea's mouth out with soap. I wish I had an answer for your dilemma, Merc, but I don't. Are the modems you mentioned external models?

    What is a good Basic Video Card

    This might work: Get TweakUI installed on the machine In TweakUI go: My Computer>>>Drives. Uncheck the box next to "C:", Click OK, and reboot. After rebooting, go back into the same place in TweakUI, check the box next to "C:", click OK, and reboot again. Cross your fingers.
