I got an older model laptop running XP, it's a Gateway MX6440, which is about 6 or 7 years old now. I keep it around to run older software which may not have been ported to Windows 7. Just recently I noticed that it's no longer charging its battery. The battery is just over 1 year old, and it...

I have 2x 16MB (capacity confirmed on a P1 board) memory modules with these chips. Each has 16 pieces. So one chip would be 1Mx4bit. The module itself is clearly marked as EDO.

My 5x86@160 is still working 21 years later. If op is still alive hopefully this answers the longevity questions :).

I've had it permanently installed on my desktop since version 5.10, too. Meanwhile it's been permanently installed on my laptop since 8.10 (after I upgraded the disk to 160GB). I now find myself using mainly Ubuntu on the laptop, but the desktop still needs a few apps running on Windows -- that'll...

Looks like AMD has taken the wraps off of its budget Sempron line a few days early. http://www.internetnews.com/ent-news/article.php/3387051 There are two distinct lines of Semprons, several K7-based Socket A and a K8-based Socket 754. The K8 Semprons have their 64-bit capabilities disabled. The...

maybe he can successfully shed some more light on this subject. Here are some more basics, just so that we're all on the same page: * In theory one can have multiple I/O APICs in a system. In practice, on the sorts of systems we're talking about here, there's only going to be one. It lives...

I've just bought a new laptop with an Athlon 4 XP-M 2400+ CPU. When idling, the CPU runs at 1.06 GHz; when working flat out, it runs at 1.79 GHz (according to Windows XP). Surely this would make it an XP-M 2200+ CPU? If the advert said it's a 2.0GHz CPU, should I send the damn thing back? Also,...

Hi: Below is an example of "parallel Hz" http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/2427/clocksignalexample8is.gif If each clock signal is 1 Hz, and you have a billion of them, staggered such that every 1ns part of the CPU can start, and finish, an instruction - making the effective 'clock rate' 1 GHz.

Somone on .chips has a virus and has been sending it out at a prodigious rate. I just received a warning from someone (sans virus) with an address list that looks like a who's who of ..chips. I'm getting hit about once a minute. The virus is about 150K so that's a lot of crap! ...and that's...

Is it true that video game consoles had been 64 bit processors for ages and even 128 bit processors since the PS2? how different are these game console processors from the regular PC processors? Are those processors faster than the 32 bit computer processors? Why can't they make 128 bit PC...

Hey, Anybody sobered up yet from the over-the-weekend I-told-you-so parties yet? ;-). Before you decide to load up any more than you already have on AMD and to short any more than you already have on Intel, consider this: http://www.forbes.com/newswire/2004/05/10/rtr1366203.html

I came here a bit before the P4. The architecture of P4 seemed right to me: highly-pipelined, clocked fast, and with big bandwidth to memory. I didn't really understand about the trace cache, but I soon learned. I was an early adopter, and I was disappointed. The reasons for my disappointment...
