AMD introduced the Athlon 64 today, and Microsoft was on hand to intro its 64-bit Windows too. Microsoft said that it will support both Intel and AMD 64-bit, but no more than that. I think what they are referring to when they talk about Intel 64-bit is Itanium, but no other 64-bit that Intel...

maybe I'm supposed to walk away thinking the P4 EE was the winner? The Emergency Edition is such a joke. Intel has no intention of selling any of these chips at $1000 a pop, even if they existed now: there won't be any til December anyway. rms

Hello all, I'm trying to figure out how OSes are working by making mine. For the moment, I try to detect PCi devices in my computer. So, I have took an Intel PCi bridge datasheet and I have read it. I have tried to get device ID and vendor ID of device 0, function 0 on bus 0 with a simple piece...

I just bought and built a shuttle SN45G with a AMD 2600 CPU. Everything went well except (big except) my AMD 2600 is running only at 1243 mhz. That is the speed that is being recognized by the computer and by the AMD utility that is suppose to tell you the speed independant of any bios issues. ...

I upgraded my old dell xps d 233Mhz with the powerleap 1.4 celeron cpu. It's working great on bios A09 and windows 98se at 933Mhz. One question then, at start up there is an two beep error message - error system cache - cache disabled! I just hit escape and it boots into windows fine. of course...

Hi! I'd like to make a PCB for a minimal, write-only slave PCI board, just to output some data. I thought about the following, to reach the "minimal" goal: Use only addresses, do not perform a full data write cycle. If I choose an address range, e.g.:

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...

Just look at what you started lol ;o) By the way guys that you all very much for a very interesting read..... "Ed" wrote in message ... Fast forward a decade or two, and some might say Intel is one bit short of a byte....

I'm using this KHX-3200 512kit with my Abit IS-7E, P-IV2.4C at 3.0 FX-5800. I like to know whether is it a fact that using current overclocked spec at 3.0Ghz in BIOS 250/200 which is 5:4 for CPU/Mem, is stable, but when I try to get anything above this, I cannot get Prime95 error free, even up...

**** The word 'Silent' is subjective and based on what a person considers to be noise, along with the sensitivity of the person's ears, and tolerance of different pitches. One man's silence is another man's noise ***** I've bought components after reading reviews that they're silent, only to be...

http://biz.yahoo.com/rc/031006/court_tech_infineon_2.html Looks like Rambus is one step closer to proving infringement. Too bad for all the anti-Rambus shills here who work for companies that will soon have to pay up. March 1994 memo from Willie Meyer of Infineon "One day all computers will be...

Where can I find scores of these two benchmarks? Thanks. Giovanni

An Intel Centrino based laptop was recently stolen from a local retail store. The store has retained much information on the laptop...its serial number, for example. Presumably at some point the thief will connect to the internet, using the pre-installed Windows XP Home OS. The question is...

While not directly related to Nvidia or ATI, the fact that XGI is entering the consumer graphics industry with its range of Volari GPUs may effect both of the current leaders. hopefully in a positive way, for the end user. God knows we could use some more competition here. Personally, I am most...

I hope my experience of a psychological solution to the problem can help other people, here it is-. The root of many, maybe any, computer noise problem is psychological. Personally, i've found that the noise bothers me if i'm doing something depressing, like deleting lots of spam, or spending...
