What separates the 2 for me is: Abit has the active northbridge cooling fan and the P4 power plug. Asus has the second LAN... I probably would have preferred the Abit but I've used Asus in the past and they havent steered me wrong + I needed the 2nd lan jim evans wrote: I'm trying to decide...

Can Windows 98SE correctly access a 250GB hard drive that uses 48-bit logical block addressing, provided that I hook the drive up through a Promise PCI controller card?

Basically, I had a raid set (which had my XP install on it) throw a disk, and I found an 8Gb drive lying around so I thought I'd bang XP back on that and try and recover as much...

Hi, I have just spend a lot of hours trying to get a Ghost image on to an old dual Boot Linux HD. I loaded the image OK but at the end of the BIOS it hangs after reporting "searching for boot on IDE 0 OK" (or similar) with cursor flashing.

During reboot attempts the hard drive would not respond - or sometimes it did. I went searching the net for a solution and saw a suggestion to change the hard drive cable....

Reading the online manual for the Gigabyte 7NNXP motherboard I see that the processor requires a separate 12volt supply. Is this provided by a connector from the normal case PSU? Thanks, Graham
