I don't know about that i, my 386sx is pretty quick. Is sx6 quicker because the number comes after the letters? :roll: BR

Call me a traitor, but I haven't switched over to G@H yet. I'm still calculating RC5 for my own stats.

Begonias are for pansies! The Bartender has been sampling too much. Tannin, are you talking redhill.au.net? BR

Then let Tony be the moderator. Second Appointment: MercutioBR

First Appointment: Flagreen Second Appointment: Tannin

Yes, the AGP patch was applied. Thank you for the thumbs-up on the PS. BR

Thanks for your input. My next step has been to swap out the GeForce256 Video Card (which was not on Tyan's HCL) and dropped in an Inno3D Tornado GeForce2 MX-400 64MB. The problem seems to have greatly lessened within Windows. However, the issue (which I don't think I previously described...

Which video card do you find to be the most successful with P4 and AMD systems that bodes good drivers under Windows 9.x - XP? This question of course, is to fulfill the needs of the average user; the ATI Xpert 2000 to Geforce2 GTS folks. Obviously, there are other cards; for extreme gaming or...

According to HP, Walter Hewlett is the cornerstone of all their problems! But have no fear, an HP document is quoted as saying: "Carly Fiorina was brought in by this Board to drive change and put HP back on path to leadership." Paul Hales makes light of this information in connection with the...

It would be great if that front, blue, panel would keep that same cobalt colored luminosity as the picture illustrates. BR

Tannin, did you ever find the WDDIAG code for this drive? BR

i, that is priceless. In my experience, there is no one intelligent person or company that could deliberately act in such a brainless manner. Only those hallowed with such traits at birth could provide such a chain of unintelligent responses. I would presume, that the first email was parsed...

Ouch.

So much ridiculous work! My downfall has been an appreciation for the new look of XP. Tannin, have you tried Athlon MP CPUs on Soltek SL-75DRV2 boards? BR

Yes on the memory, it is Registered ECC. The old NIC was 3COM the new NIC is LinkSys. BR

Replace the power supply again? I would much rather blame this issue on nVidia. Alas, I'll see what I can put together. BR

Believe me Tannin, I'd love to do all that. The problem is that I'm dealing with WindowsXP. I've already reached the limit of installations with this copy. I have to call Microsoft for a special key to install it again. I've gone through 5 installations because it was originally so buggy...

I much rather preferred when the hosting was left up to me! But my lovely ISP decided, 'uh, we'll take away your static IP, go dynamic, and renew the lease every 3 days'. Up yours and sideways! Anyway, they rubbed me the wrong way, oh, and they raised the price too. But it is still cheaper...

About two months ago, I put together another new workstation for me. Tyan S2460 Athlon MP 1600+ CoolerMaster Heatsinks & Fans Asus V6800 (GeForce256 32MB DDR) 512 MB DDR RAM WD102BA & WD400BB Enermax 410w PS Case Fans Windows XP Professional To this day, it will still freeze on me. I've...

It is interesting that pair.com 'recommends Maxtor and WD drives'.

Shared Hosting - Advanced Account I already have the domain names (3), now I'll just point to the account they created for me. BR

Thanks Pradeep. I just signed up with them. Call me easy, but the price and performance was right. We'll what happens after my account is created. :D

Check it out. http://soltekusa.safeshopper.com/

Pretty boring monologue for CCN Sport. Either way, I have not tried that board yet. However, I did have an easy time with the ECS D6VAA - dual socket 370 board (PIII 933EB), ATI Xpert 2000, 512 MB PC-133 RAM, Creative Labs 52X CD-ROM, Tekram SCSI Card, WD45FN drive, and a WD PHD1000 drive...

I'm looking for a reasonably priced company to host my websites for me. They all receive little traffic, but I would like someone who is reliable, not only with their hardware, but also with their business. Your help is appreciated. BR :-?

Sounds good: http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/business/newsid_1859000/1859552.stm BR

They sent it to Perth? I could have sent you the RAM in a much shorter time. Did they at least apologize with The Australian Prospector Coin and Nugget Set from the Perth Mint? BR :D

No, it is the VIA Apollo KT266A but it supports Athlon XP 2000+ and higher CPUs. It also comes with 6 PCI slots and it is larger. It is also supposed to come with more overclocking settings, but those don't interest me. BR

Has anyone had the chance to try this new board? BR

Good one Flagreen. I'm running a server off of an Intel OR840 board (dual Slot-1 PIII 667EB 256 MB RDRAM), video surveillence running on an Intel VC820 board (Slot-1 PIII 866EB 128 MB RDRAM), a printer server/workstation running on an Intel SE440BX-2 platform (Slot-1 PII 400 256 MB SDRAM), and...

Usually, it's Compaq's tech support that rubs the customers the wrong way.

Clocker, how about the other network services, such as Network Connections, Network DDE, Network DDE DSDM, or NLA, they are set to Manual by default, how about setting them to Automatic? BR

Corvair, Do you think Intel would ever find an advantage in manufacturing its own memory components for it's "internet" products? BR

Upgrade to OS/2 from WindowsXP, lol :mrgrn:

Here is my new red Q slogan: iPaq, uPaq, we all Paq for iCrap!

She is pretty indecisive, but when it comes to men and alcohol, it doesn't seem to matter. Maybe she should pick HP with the notion that one day HP with buy IOMEGA, I mean they'll merge? BR

Tannin, it's awfully kind of HP to allow for video upgrades. The Compaq iPaq with the intel i810 chipset doesn't allow for video upgrade; integraded as integraded gets. But please don't get me wrong, I would never recommend either Compaq or HP to anyone. I also prefer not doing repairs on...

Congrats Mercutio, won't be long now and you'll be permanent. BR

Here is my long winded reply, please feel free to criticize: 2.3.2 Are SCSI drives made to higher standards than IDE drives? What do "higher standards" imply? Simply put: Are SCSI drives made with superior or more advanced components then ATA drives? The answer is: "Not Really", but the...

Bless your heart Handruin, we (my eyes and I) await your findings. BR

I would like to see the forum fit into a 800 x 600 resolution. Unfortunately, my aged and abused eyes can't handle 1024 x 768 on a 15" monitor. Did someone say buy a bigger monitor? I use that one for work. :) BR

An excellent suggestion Mark. BR

I can't believe my english; there instead of their - pfft! Coug, Rambus is a snake-in-the-grass, and besides being on most peoples wish list for folding, I'd have to agree that they're probably closer in reality to an early demise then some believe. I think Intel is keeping them alive and has...

Yer a smart man Mercutio, yo' sh'd haf no problem obtainin' thet job. Well bust mah britches an' call me streaker. - compliments of the Dialectizer

My first vote had to be for Compaq. There ultra proprietary machines rub me the wrong, and then to top it off, they're built like e-machines - crap! At least HP has the decency to build higher quality machines. BR

It is amazing how cool that WD1200JB registered at. BR

Mercutio, I wish you success. It is a shame when interviewers rely only on certifications and not on qualifications. They should understand that the mix of certifications and experience that you have make you perfect for the job. :) BR

Handruin, I think the idea is fantastic, but the task is unwieldy. Perhaps with good cooperation, plenty of time, and practical input, we could manage such a commission. I’ll participate, but I cannot unequivocally prescribe the amount of data or time that I could supply. BR

$6.00 saving - thanks for the input, these would be used in end user systems who are connecting to a DSL or Cable modem. BR

Has anyone used the LITEON 16x10x40x or 24x10x40x CD-RW products? What are your impressions? Thanks for your comments. BR
