I am building a new computer with a Gigabyte 8KNXP board. Could someone help me out with installing XP? I have a 120 Gig Western digital SATA drive. Is it best to use the Sil3112 controller or the ICH5R? Should I use RAID or base SATA? Which connectors should I use for my DVD burner and my CDROM?...

Has anyone figured out how to hook them up or do I have to forget about the front USB plugs on the case? I would sure like to be able to use them for my MP3 player. That way I can unhook it when I'm...

has anyone managed to get these to work together, they certainly don't with the 5.1 in the first PCI slot.

What is the fastest CPU this board will support? Iknow the manual says XP2800, but I thought I have seen a few posts saying the XP3000 would work...Thanks Tom

I bought a Maxtor ATA 133 80GB hard disc to put in my GA-6VXDC7 run PC (with two PIII 733 CPUs). When I run the bios to auto recognise / install the hard disc the PC locks up and a reboot is the only way out. Using it as a slave to my IBM 10.5GB hdd it shows as an identical size drive to the...

Can the above cable be used for DVD burner and CDROM. I didn't think the 80 wire cables would work with them. That is the same thing, right?

I just built several systems with the GA-7VM400M-P motherboard. I have tried to find the place in the bios to turn on "Num Lock" when the computer boots up but can't seem to find it. Can anyone help?? Thanks in advance.

I have a GA-7VAX revision 1.1 board that I've recently upgraded to an XP2800+ CPU, the fastest it supports.

I checked my 8KNXP, DDR voltage is at 2.75. It's set in the BIOS to +.2 so i guess it's about right Steve
