I was referring to a couple of other motherboards in a different thread. Sorry.

Found this list on Gigabyte site. Hope it helps

I am having some of the same problems. I ended up buying a Celeron G450 so I could get the boards to boot up.

4 cylinder, overhead cam, 4 valves per cylinder, dual spark plugs.....there is nothing really new these days

If you need parts for anything you bought at Sears, you have to order it online, and pay shipping to your home. If you try to use 'Store Pickup' you may or may not get your part. I've used Walmart's online shopping a few times. Always used their 'Store Pickup' option. Haven't had a problem yet...

Interesting idea for old microSD cards.

The 3Ware RAID cards I have dealt with will allow a RAID array with the leftovers set to JBOD. It is probably better to attach single drives to the motherboard though.

Actually, I think I need an exorcist.

I have been watching the America's Cup too. It was awesome! The other day the two boats were doing 52-58 MPH downwind. Wind speed was 24 knots. Most average power boats can only do about half that.

I should have done more checking before buying the Gigabyte board. Seems this particular one has memory slot issues and the PCIe x16 slot pulling out of the board.

Any time you try to make something idiot proof, you just make better idiots.

Sounds more like the 'chair to keyboard interface' might be the problem.

I didn't think anything went faster than the speed of light.

The 'Time Line' was great!

I used an image made with Macrium. Macrium boots using Windows PE which allowed to install drivers. I also used Macrium's bare metal install option which allowed to install drivers. The operating system booted fine. The problem wasn't not seeing the USB ports, it is the USB ports being turned...

Nevermind. I got my head out of my arse found that you can use 2U server power supplies in it. DUH

I have been using the NORCO RPC-270 2U case for most of my rack mount needs. It uses a standard ATX12V power supply. I have been using an Antec EA-380 power supply as it has it's fan mounted on the side ( or end ) of the fan case. If I need a larger power supply what could I use? Everyone that I...

Could you explain???

The GPT problem originated in the BIOS. xHCI was being loaded, whatever xHCI is. I went through the BIOS and set everything I could find to Legacy. I left the SATA ports set as AHCI. Windows loaded fine without all the goofy partitions. There is no way to attach a PS2 device to this...

The new Gigabyte motherboard arrived. It seems to have issues. Two of the memory slots don't work. I'll try new memory when it gets here. When I installed the OS from an image, it boots fine but as soon as the OS starts to load, it shuts off all the USB ports. Therefore no keyboard or mouse...

A little clarification. Where I work we cast, hot roll, and cold roll aluminum. We do not make any finished product though. The casting area contains dross dust ( think baking flour ) that gets into everything. In the hot mill we spray coolant on sheets of aluminum that is 900 F-1000 F during...

I just retired a 1998 vintage Gateway E-4200 computer. From 1998 to 2002 it was someones desktop computer. From 2003 until today it was in our production are running 24/7/365. It still has the 40GB Western Digital hard drive in that I installed in it in 2003. The only reason we replaced it is...

For being late to wish you a Happy Birthday.

My concern is more for the environment at work. Dirt, goo, and grime have a way of getting into everything. And electrical connections seem to be a magnet for dirt. I have one at home as that is the only thing the local computer store had in stock when I needed one. It is a NZXT model of some...

That's a great power supply. Too bad it has modular cables. To me, the connection to the power supply is another point of failure.

Happy Birthday! And a belated Happy Birthday to ddrueding! (I'm such an idiot.)

Defender was probably scanning those files while they were being unpacked and installed. Was Avast doing the same thing?

Yesterday I upgraded my daughters computer from low end Celeron to the fastest P4 that the motherboard ( Intel DG965WH ) could handle. After starting I went into the BIOS to make sure the new CPU was properly recognized. Leaving the BIOS and rebooting there were a series of beeps and the...

This might sound odd to all of you, but Intel leaving the motherboard market is weighing heavily on my retiring. ( I'm 65 now ) I don't need the headaches and aggravation of lesser motherboards at work.

How about programs like PCAnywhere??

The only power supplies I use are the Antec Earthwatts series. They have an excellent survival rate in our production facility where they live without a ups or line filtering. They also must survive the dirt and heat. They run 24/7/365 which I believe is the reason they last. [ same with hard...

I watched today's final race of the America's Cup. ( It is yacht racing. ) With the computer generated graphic's in real time it was exciting to watch. I actually understood what was going on. Even the announcers seem to have a brain ( Unlike most of the talking bobble heads these days ) and...

With the drivers being way out of date, I ended up searching for the updated ones anyway. The last three Supermicro motherboards ( I was ASKED to order these ) didn't come with a CD at all. Score 1 for ASUS.

We have a plan: Ordered a new Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H. When new arrives, try to flash the ASUS just to see if we can and if it helps. Either way, send ASUS motherboard back for a refund. Send completely dead ASUS motherboard back to ASUS ( if we can ) and see what happens. Install Gigabyte...

I'm working on an ASUS P8Z77-V Pro motherboard with an i7-3770K CPU. This motherboard was installed 4 days ago. Since it was installed it has been nothing but trouble, or I'm a bigger Bozo than I thought. The problems: The USB 2.0 (black connectors) don't work; the SATA 6GB Assmedia ports don't...

At work I installed Windows 8.1 on a computer for everyone to play with. We decide to try some utilities that enhance the user experience, like Classic Shell and Ultimate Windows Tweaker. Classic Shell installed fine, but UWT said it needed DotNet 3.5. No problem. I went to Program and Features...

Heat related???

If coal burning power plants were making the bricks on site, the energy cost would be negligible. And it beats dumping all that CO2 into the air.

It seems that during the last 5-7 years CEOs just go from one job to the next, about every 2 years. Like musical chairs. I wonder what reject MS will hire, and from whom.

Maybe not computer related directly, but this way cool.

They also don't have to spend a ton of money on emission controls.

I was looking at figures at the NTHSA and I didn't find results for city or country fatalities. But it should be obvious that the denser the population, and therefore vehicles, the more accidents. It should also be obvious that the accidents out in the country would be more horrific ( or deadly...

3 mph/sec...that will get you killed getting on a major highway. That will also get you killed when trying to pass a slow poke [ or horse and buggy ] on a two lane road. If you want to do something to make the roads safer, develop a device that blocks all cell phone traffic inside the car as...

In Macrium advanced settings, you can have it ignore bad sectors.

It appears Windows won't let the virus update file run in 'System32'. This is where 'PSEXEC' copies the file to and then executes it. I wrote a small script on the computer that needs the virus update to copy the update to 'System32' and then execute it without using PSEXEC. No Go. Copying the...

Yes, both the sending and receiving computers are logged into as administrators. Running the file manually is done as administrator.

To upgrade the virus definitions on our computers around the plant, I use PSEXEC. [ none of our computers are connected to the internet ] The script is simple [ psexec.exe -h \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\ -u administrator -p xxxxxx -c norton64.exe /q ]. This script is modified to push out MS Security...

I am so sorry for your loss.

I found that Classic Shell did fix a lot of Windows Explorer problems. For me anyway.
