Just wondering, cause I want to make sure this setup works before I RMA my Abit NF7-S and buy the Asus. Having many stumbles trying to get NF7-S / ATI AiW working. Machine juts will not power on.

It has just come to my attention that manufactures label their 2 device IDE cables with the Slave in the middle and the Master at the end of the cable. Considering the fact that most peoples CDROM/DVD drives are physically above the hard drives, this creates a small cable routing problem. So, 2...

Hey, I'm thinking of returning my NF7-S and trade it for the A7N8X because of the problems I was having with the Radeon AiW 9700 Pro. Does the Asus board have built in digital output for audio? This review http://www.hightekpc.com/reviews/a7n8x.html says it does, and it shows a picture of the...

From a review of the Abit NF7-S on Sharkey Extreme The MCP, or Media Communications Processor, part is a bit more detailed, and NVIDIA offers several different Southbridge versions. The ABIT NF7-S uses the higher-end MCP-T chip, which includes basic ATA133, LAN and 6-channel audio features, as...

I'm replacing my Palomino with a Barton CPU; the chip itself on the Palomino is square, while the Barton is rectangular. I believe my current fan came with the Palomino CPU, so it has a square pad underneath. Will the fan work for the Barton too, or am I better off buying a new fan? - Zilla

I have an NF7-S v2.0, 9700pro, 2500+(1.8) oc'd to 3200+(2.2), 500w ps, XP Pro. There are a few games like MOH, and Call of Duty that are freazing up. Call of Duty freezes up a few minutes after beginning. I have the cpu voltage at 1.75. I started from 1.65, and as i went up, Call of Duty plays for...

I'm ignorant of how the hardware design works, but given that some software (like softFSB and coolCPU) can control FSB speed independently of motheboard settings, is it possible for software to directly or indirectly control PCI/AGP speed via a "software" divider? My MSI motherboard was indicated...

Over the past 12 months, I've built more than 30 systems based on boxed Athlon XP processors and Asus A7N266-VM mobos, and never had any problem until very recently. One new CPU, a 2000+ Thoroughbred, failed completely (confirmed by cross-substitution), giving continuous high-low BIOS beeps....

I'm setting up a small computer games parlor for a friend to go along with his existing cybercafe, and I'd appreciate your inputs - suggestions, experience, etc. especially re the mobo, gfx and CPU. Price-performance ratio is very important, and the machines should be much cheaper than the...

Last Monday, lightning struck a friend's house and damaged several computers that are connected as a neighbourhood LAN. In one of these some chips on the mobo were literally blown up. I removed the processor (an Athlon XP 2400+) and asked the owner and his uncle (a close friend and fairly...

I've recently assembled a system for a friend using a Leadtek K7NCR18GM mobo and it works fine except for one thing : The BIOS POST beep comes through not only the cabinet internal speaker, but also through the external amplified speakers. If the ext speaker is already on with the volume control...

Hi. I have this motherboard and i would like to know if i can use ddr400 memory. My cpu is a TB 2600+ (fsb 333). For a ddr400, the fsb must be at 200, so if I want to use this memory at 400, i have to OC my cpu.... Actually, i'm using ddr266, so mu cpu is only at 2000+ (133*12.5). What is the best...

I've got a Gigabyte 7VAX board based on the KT400 chipset and want to lock down the AGP and PCI bus speeds to overclock by raising the FSB. I've seen a bios for the 7VAX-A which is very similar in layout to my board but is based on the KT400A chipset. Has anyone seen one for my board? Any help...
