Can somebody please tell me of an active newsgroup to discuss Intel Hardware? This one looks like some sore of archive only group. Thanks, T.C.

Sorry, but no. The last time I had Lauf it took me almost a month to get rid of him.

My Chenbro 611 cases and Intel D875PBZ motherboards have been serving me well but the time has come where I need to swap out complete O/S installs with alternate configurations. If possible, I'd like to salvage my current installs in the process. (I'm using RAID 1 off the motherboard.)...

Hi, I am using Intel c++ compiler 10, and trying to optimize as much as possible this sequential code: const int itmIdx = 250000; double opt; const int N = 2*itmIdx ; const double SS = 10000.0; const double SSbackFactor = 0.99; const double p0=0.49;

Yorkfield is a Ray-Trace monster By Theo Valich in Leipzig: Wednesday 22 August 2007, 13:56 CHIPZILLA SHOWED A DEMONSTRATION of Ray-Tracer on its latest processors, and we have to say that the demo was quite a surprise to us. Who knows, maybe in a year CPUs might be good for graphics again. The...

I have the same problem. At last I sent my motherboard back to Intel and I got a new one. Same **** different pile! The Microphone still isn't working (record input level is extreme low) and i can't do a simple skype call because my dialog partner can't here me. First I've tried to alter all sound...

Hello all, and thanks. I plan on getting a Dell XPS 710, an nVidia GTX8800 w/768MB, and a 20" monitor. I have yet to decide on my CPY. The options a

Does anyone know if the original Bad Axe supports the E6750? The product support page of the bad axe doesn't include the 6750 as a supported CPU, but it does include the E6700 as a supported CPU. If a board supports, the 6700, shouldn't it support the 6750?

The Pentium architecture supports 4GB of memory space. Chipsets limit physical RAM. Intel supports 4GB in the 450 server chipsets, and starting with the 865 desktop chipset. If you have 4GB RAM, a portion has to be disabled for PCI and system purposes. If you are interested in how this is done,...

Which has more horsepower for multimedia apps A quadcore Q6600 or a pentium 840 D EE? TIA Jeff

not sure where to go with this question. I saw you listing in comp.sys.intel I'm having strange behavior with the RDTSC instruction On Jul 10 1994, 12:19 am, (Andy Glew) wrote: (3) RDMSR(MSR=10h) versus RDTSC: yes, indeed, MSR=10h is the TimeStamp Counter (TSC). ...

Getting a new computer - our most challenging use is home video editing (and no video game playing). What are the differences between an Intel "dual core" (such as the E2160-1.8 GHz) versus the Intel "Core 2 Duo" (such as the E4300-1.8 GHz)? The E4300 has a 2 mb cache compared to a the 1 mb cache...

I'm trying to determine what's needed to safely hot-swap SATA drives that I use for file back-ups. But it's unclear if my DP965LT motherboard supports SATA hot-swapping. Intel's website cautions that one needs to install AHCI or RAID drivers during the OS install (XP-Pro) as AHCI (which supports...

Hi Everyone I am facing a problem where the Intel 8255xER chip is not binding to IPv6 protocol. On installing IPv6 from 'netsh' link-local addresses do not appear on these adapters. I have tried the same test with several other Intel adapters like PRO*100

Hi everyone! I've been reading in Wikipedia SOLO CORES are DUAL CORE processors with one core severed but actually the same FSB, L2 Cache and so they even have the same socket, the socket M. So is it possible to upgrade a toshiba l100 (with solo core) to dual core? I know that previous pentium...

What is the difference between the Intel motherboards BLKD975XBX2KR and D975XBX2KR?. AFAIK the 1st refers to a 'BuLK' 10 pack of "D975XBX2KR"s. The BLKD975XBX2KR is cheaper (per unit) & has "On Board Firewire", whereas the D975XBX2KR does *not* but costs more?. This does not make...

Hi, I moved to a smaller home (the end of last year) and am liquidating most of my collection of working vintage computers and classic game consoles (http://stores.ebay.com/AmericanAuctionGallery) I am slow at getting it posted on eBay but you can drop me a line if you have a special interest in...

does all of intel cpu are 64 bit or not. if not please name the 64 bit processors and also if you know the rational behind the intel reason not to switch to 64 bit cpus as all the amd processors are 64 bit???? thanks a lot

I am waiting for this Intel mb to come in the mail. I want to buy 2GB of RAM to start off with. I am looking at either (2) 1GB Kingston 6400 modules for $120 or (2) 1GB Corsair 6400 modules for $80. Price seems like a "no-brainer" but I'm more familiar with Kingston than Corsair. This is also...
