Display dropped out -- ohhh myyyy gawd! by
Flasherly[_2_]
Returned to find the monitor displaying "no input". Rebooted and,
like an un-sync'd modem, it reestablished itself. DVI connector on it
for the past month. Prior, just VGA, which this new MB apparently
labels (under) D-Sub/DVI-D, although it has both a normal 15-pin VGA
and the later, squarer...

oh, yeah -- more programs is for more cores by
Flasherly[_2_]
Updated SpeedFan, but then decided to switch back to the older
version, and disable CPU temp reporting;. . .the newer version, I
find, has a nasty programming protocol for calling home -- nasty
inasmuch in how calling home compounds one another, initially, for as
well detecting the hardware ports...

Creative SoundBlaster 720 review ? by
[email protected]
Hello,
I am in the process of trying to design a Dream PC for 2017.
AMD Threadripper is something I would want.
ASRock x399 motherboards is something I would want for the motherboard overheat protection circuitry.
NOCTUA cooler for TR4 socket is probably also something I would want.

And be sure it's not an earlier version.
I've "differences" with this new MB. I'm not sure if it's a drive
conflict issue from MB resource loads (provided for Windows by the MB
manufacturer on CD).
This is a Windows install from a same MB, different model at an

Nice - HQ encode, 8-core bulldozer by
Flasherly[_2_]
Got around to a decent video encode, something I'd have prior, with
certain likelihood, run into issues, at the least with further audio
processing I also run. Quadcores then, octals now. Distribution
across eight cores can also be seen favorably, a token estimate at 20%
processing demands, on...

Compaq Evo boot time beep codes by

Anyone know the meaning of the boot time beep code: beep beep pause beep?
This occurs somewhere in the boot sequence and the machine stalls.

Changed CMOS battery by
John B. Smith
I changed my CMOS battery today - on suspicion. It measured 3.1 volts
after 9 years. The EverReady 2032 I put in measured 3.3v (it's a 3
volt battery). I'm wondering, does the motherboard keep the battery
topped off while the machine is on, even though it's not a
rechargable? This seems an...

Fragile AMD Threadripper cooler bracket ? by

Fragile AMD Threadripper cooler bracket ?
This CPU comes with some kind of bracket to mount existing coolers.
This has me worried a bit. Their previous AMD X2 3800+ plastic design fractured because of metal screws into plastic causing micro fractures which eventually tore itself apart because of...

I don't know how I screwed up disk cloning, but I did by
RayLopez99
I will update this post later. Right now as I type this I'm restoring an image to a AMD A8-5500 quad core machine where I had upgraded the hard drive..
I don't know how I screwed up disk cloning, but I did (and I've built several PCs from scratch, though not an expert by any means).
Here's a...

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO w/ 120mm PWM Fan by
Flasherly[_2_]
Put it in last night, replacing the stock, relatively a petite AMD
cooler for an eight-core.
Pretty substantial, nonetheless, for their base EVO model: consisting
of metal backplate, some offset posts for the backplate, and a
cross-member to secure the cooler to four posts. Clip the fan on...

They're all on the MB backplane ports, and I've cycled thru all three

Now let's fix the USB card! by

OK
You guys helped me decide what to do about streaming old movies so how
about this annoyance.
Having to physically reinsert the card into the slot to get it found is
not working out. However there isn't a dust bunny to be found in the
computer any longer.
Windows XP SP3. 2 empty PCI slots....

Program to stream .vob ? by

Have been away from video for about 3 years. Was going to watch an old
movie I'd ripped to the hd with a program called PlayOn. It sees the
title, but no longer will play it. Will play .mp4 just fine. Their
tech support tells me to remove all media and add back 1 title at a time
to maybe...

How do you tell whether a display card's firmware is dead? by
Mr. Man-wai Chang
I got a GeForce 8500GT that suddenly malfunctioned. Both its DVI and
HDMI ports are dead.
And is it possible that it's damaged by malware?
I have had a 7600GT and a Radeon 6850 that suddenly malfunctioned as well.
