I've been attempting to get to the bottom of a recurring BSOD crash happening on my system. I've already had 4 crashes so far over the past two weeks. So I've identified that NTOSKRNL.EXE is involved in all of them so far. It always somewhere in the stack. So I enabled Driver Verifier on...

I will write this, because it is a sort of funny conclusion I came to yesterday. It affects this groups subject, no I am not a gamer, do not have a ps2 or xbox no. This is the 'train of thought': Many people in Europe use an old PC (say K6 or Duron) as video recorder for digital satellite TV,...

Interesting the AMD 45nm technology does not yet include High-K & Metal Gates (HKMG), yet it uses 15-30% less power. Of course AMD does use SOI, which Intel doesn't. So it looks like currently SOI utilizes power better than HKMG, but AMD also plans to use HKMG in later 45nm revision. Yousuf...

Adorable little Ed Stroglio rant: Hatching Eggs . . . "Remember x86-64? The stick AMD was supposed to beat Intel to death with? Then Intel got themselves the same stick, and the would-be beaters found something else to talk about. Yes, AMD is doing better now, but not because of x86-64. Indeed,...

Hello. I'm setting up a new rig, with 4 X 4GB DDR2 modules. I tried run memtest86 but it only detected 4GB of my memory. In Linux and in XP-64 I see all 16GB of the RAM. So how to test the RAM?

I'm posting this for two reasons: One, I want to know what people have seen in comparing the AMD 3200 to an Intel 3.2GHz. Also, what are the benefits of selecting the Intel system over AMD, or AMD over Intel system. I am tired of reading magazine reviews of the 2 systems side by side. I'm curious...

I just upgraded my brother's computer from Win XP to Ubuntu 5.10. It was an unbelievable success! It surprised even me how smoothly it went -- didn't need to go into the command-line even once. Linux has arrived, it seems. My brother is a highly typical computer user, doesn't know how it works,...
