I've never had this problem before, and I'm not sure what the rules are like. My OCD side has driven me to pursue some hardcore computing silence. My travels have taken me over to SPCR, where I've been spending quite a bit of time reading. I'm now ready to put forth a rather unusual idea that...

Man......Why can't I have the coolest stuff for more than a few days at a time? I haven't even finished building mine yet...

Yup. Filling it with Supermicro 5-in-3s and Fanbusses and LCD Displays.....then upgrade the side fan to a 45cm. Makes for a very expensive looking server.

Umm.....RTFA? LOL

It's been a while since I've used 2000 server, but I think I remember a bit. I assume you are only having one user connect at a time? If so, you need to install terminal services in "remote administration" mode, that way you don't need a licencing server.

Linux? Yes, it has quite a few quirks. None specifically attributable to the K8N-E that I know of...

adcadet, If you reverse the text in your two posts, it makes it funnier. -pui

Have fun, see you when you get back.

For those that like to play, this is really cool. Go check it out.

First thing I'd reccomend is memtest, let us know how it comes out.

Didn't Will Smith play catwoman? Now I'm confused.... Beer is ba if you're sick; try Scotch.

Sounds cool, I relied there.

It has always been my opinion that having an emotion or feeling about something is nothing to be ashamed of; that it's an inherent part of being human. It sounds like you are aware why you are having these feelings, and I'd guess that they should understand the source as well. I might suggest...

I just finihed installing my ASUS K8N-E Deluxe motherboard, and this thing is awesome. Not only did it go in without a hitch, not only did it perfectly detect my mobile CPU with the shipping BIOS, not only did I not need to use a f-ing floppy to install the OS on the native SATA ports, but the...

I find it a funny coincidence that all of my machines came out to exactly the same WU per week as you guys...oh, well...just put another A64 3200 on 24/7 :P

Yup. One of my clients is starting to get some nice govornment contracts, and in order to get more they need to follow a bunch of these guidelines. Not fun.

:D

Keep us posted, you don't live that far away...

Just got back from another trip to Oregon. Those trips are costing me about $1k each. Worth every penny (except the ones I don't have).

WOW, that was like....totally the wrong link.... :oops: http://www.chami.com/html-kit/download/

I like HTML-Kit. It is definatly a DIY code (hyped text editor), but has quite a few plug-ins and color coded tags 8)

That sounds like the way to go. I have an ingram account and I still ordered 20+ cases from newegg (cheaper).

Ordered the ASUS board...if I have any problems I'll be sue to let you guys know so I can recieve my "I told you so" in good form. I'm now lookng at one of these beasties for cooling, and a fanless PSU....all I need is a better way to cool my HDD.....

I lost my licence proper in 2001. Since then I've been operating under a probational licence specifically for business purposes only. Typically these are restricted to certain routes at certain times of day; but due to the nature of my work, it's basically free-reign. The only certainty is that...

In my exiting and foolhearty youth, I managed some rather significant speeds. I used to own a Honda CBR 600F4i, and took it to redline in 6th. The spedometer only went to 160mph. While driving a company 360 Modena, we got pretty close to the aforementioned 200mph (if the speedo is to be...

I guess it depends on the cost of living in your area, and the mean household income. Here kids drop $7/hr to play with their friends, even if they already have the game at home. I'm looking at opening several more, and am using household income as a primary factor for choosing locations. We...

Not really, still has a long way to go before it's a finished product. But I really like being the "drunkard" class and beating people to death with my tankard...

Nope, I'm starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel WRT more hardware, nothing else over 1Ghz... I guess I'll just have to open a few more game centers...

Yup, agreed on all counts. When I posted that, I only looked at the "daily production" (not even the "daily average") numbers, and you were quite a bit behind... Considering that the majority of my machines are only working from 12PM PST until 12AM PST, I really need to look at longer-term...

Argh, I'm still way short of Fushigi's daily production. I need to rummage around and get some more iron on the fire.

We had an excellent game of Battlefield: Pirates and the "ar, yar, and aye" were said quite often.

So you are running the MSI K8T Neo FSR with a CG DTR chip as well? My CPU temp is reading as 36C, with your corrections that would place it @ 2C above ambient with a 5v Panaflo...wow.

Yup SBC execs now swear that SBC doesn't mean anything. Points to i

:wink: Just put on another quad-Xeon 2.8 full-time...

Interesting... Funny how this technique is used by major companies in the US as well. SBC used to mean "Southwestern Bell Corporation". It no longer does. Anyone care to place a guess?

Groan: "Design for Innovation" How boring...

Quite the opposite really; I really like having a quiet and cool system. The best way to do that I've seen is to start with a cool CPU. This system will only have a single undervolted 120mm fan (ducted from a XP-120 (see below) heat sink to a modified power supply). Getting the lowest heat with...

Nice job, that sure is a whole "sh!t-tonne" of posts...

I listed them in my post as they were referenced in another thread that I linked to in my OP. I have personally never seen nor even read a review of one of their boards or other products. Before reading their name on the list I hadn't seen it before anywhere.

Now that I'm thinking of it, I have had more recent expreience with ASUS. I have about a dozen servers running A7N8X (-E, -X, Deluxe) and XP 2500+, and my home system was similar for a while. I don't know why I spaced on that earlier...this is my third day straight, time to make a purchasing...

It's a thermal management issue. Those 20 machines are in a cement building with no air conditioning. The only way to keep the room cool is to mount giant fans in the windows and leave the door open to the street. We can't do that while no one is there. Any time the systems are on, they are...

Alright....here's what I've got right now: (1/2 time) 20 A64 3000+ (Full Time) 2 A64 3000+ 4 AXP 2500+ 4 P3 1Ghz Let's see how that does :wink:

DFI? I've never even heard of them... I do have a bad taste about Gigabyte....might still do ASUS, though Tannin's warning does carry quite a bit of weight,

Uh, OK. I haven't used an ASUS board since my P5A, but that was fantastic. For the most part, I thought they'd managed to maintain their reputation; so I didn't know their QC had slipped. I'm still tempted, as I have no experience with the other mfgrs on the list: Chaintech VNF3-250 Zenith...

Looking at the ASUS K8N-E Deluxe

Well, the K8T800 chipset seems to be getting a little long in the tooth. Time to evaluate a new board. The only features I'm really interested in are: 1. A64 Mobile support (this means socket 754, more requirements here) 2. S-ATA (at least 2 ports, RAID irrelevant) 3. Gig-E integrated into NB...

I might start that today, depends on how my management software likes the new console client.

I'm giving the new console client a test run....we'll see how it does.

I've had good luck in the past with verisign. You have the shopping cart on your page (so you can tie it in with inventory management), and redirect with parameters to their page when it comes time to process the transaction. After the transaction is complete, they redirect back to you with...

LOL 8)
