I upgraded my video card from an GeForce 2 GTX to a GeForce 4 4800/128, and installed a 1.33 Tbird Athlon into my PC Chips M830L mobo. Now I cannot bring the processor up to 1.33 gHz without the system crashing to the Missing or Corrupt SYSTEM File error. When I take it back down to 1.0 gHz the...

OK I know the thread's out of date but I've been away - I would suggest looking at something with the NForce2 chipset, it really is excellent, stable and has all the gadgets you could ask for. There's a new Ultra 400 version which is factory-rated for 200Mhz FSB (or 400 in marketing-speak), and I...

I have just built a system with a MSI k7n2g ilsr mainboard with an XP 2600+. CPU temperature shows between 55C and 59C. Is this normal? The cpu was boxed and uses the standard amd cooler and fan. Thanks in advance. Rob

I am building a PC. This is known as I have asked a few questions along the way, and have always gotten great feedback. Things are coming along well, but curiosity has struck again and I turn to you all for help.... I am going to place 2 Western Digital 40gig 5400 Drives in Raid 1, so the files...

Greetings, I recently purchased a 2500+ Barton. My motherboard would not post so I tried my old AMD processor for verification on a bad motherboard. I was having trouble removing the heat sink so I had someone help me by using a small screwdriver to pull outward on the clip so it...

Hiya Soupladel... if you can do it, the 2400+ will run ok at an FSB of 200 with a 10x multiplier. But I currently cannot even get another 50Mhz out of the CPU no matter how I screw with the FSBxMultiplier combos and I did try taking VCore up a bit (no higher than 1.725 - I'd rather have it 'stock'...

use norton personal firewall - it stops 3rd party popups and webpages as well as keeps your system protected from outside infiltration from lamers. I never get popups or webpages that i dont want to see. "Redd" wrote in...

I use a neat little program called "Stop-the-Pop-Up". It's a free download from Cnet. It destroys all pop-ups before they hit your screen. If you want a pop-up to appear, you hold down control while you click the link. It's a great program.

Is PC2100 DDR Ram compatible with the Athlon XP 2500 Barton? If it is, do you have a motherboard recommendation for this combination? Thanks Yeah, just find any DDR compatible motherboard that'll run a 2500. There are loads of them out there.
