I get these errors frequently while reading the threads. Does anyone get these errors too? (or maybe it's just an IE error...) Note that this error looks like the "the page cannot be found" error message in IE... Jan The XML page cannot be displayed Cannot view XML input using XSL style...

Hmm... I wonder if this has anything to do with Intel's efforts to prevent overclocking... Jan

OMG! This really works... First I tried "heart", but it figured it out after question 19. It did catch my "butter knife" only after question 28, but apparently the person(s) who made this think that You don't use knives at school. Anyway, really great... Jan

Which of the servers hosts SF.net? Jan

I wonder if we are ever going to see a desktop processor from either AMD or Intel that would produce less than 30W of heat? Jan

Some GF 5200's have passive cooling. The performance: You decide. Zalman could be a good idea, if You are willing to void warranty. It comes pre-installed only with some Radeon 9700/9800 cards, which tend to be overclocked, and priced to match performance. Cheers, Jan

My D740X's make a random louder click with heavy I/Os. I guess that's a feature... Jan

I really like Intel's solution: The sink is about the same size as a standard Duron HS... Too bad that Intel's board really lacks in features. Cheers, Jan

:D

OK, I just read CityK's massive post about the mem sticks... Very good info to read. Jan

Hmm... I just read from Tom's (ok don't shoot me...) that some sticks have chips on both sides, but are only single-sided; Actually, the "correct" term would be single-row or -bank. Maybe there is more than meets the eye... Cheers, Jan

I wonder why there is a space between the "e" and comma? There is none in the code: Jan PS. Blake, your involvement in this message is purely coincidental...

Reader's web-integration crashes in two ways (at least...): Either the browser crashes (like Blake said), and when I scroll to the next page too soon, I get document errors, as the next page hasn't been loaded yet. (sometimes the browser seems to hang, as there is the error window under the...

True, especially if the ports are integrated to the motherboard (=no add-on cards) the current has to go through the motherboard. I think that the max. ratings are 0.5A for both USB and FireWire port. If You have (and use) more than one USB port, the max. power is shared. (maybe there is 0.5A...

I wonder if there is going to be a one-platter version (=30 GB) of the 7K60 (or would it be 7K30 then)? The price would be much nicer, especially if You are buying a $1k laptop. Jan

Yeah... There seems to be no end... Next: VIA, SiS and nVidia all release 400 MHz FSB compatible chipsets, to support the released 3200+. Jan

If the MB's manual says that max. module size is 128 MBs, You'll probably get only 128 MBs from those modules (if they work at all). If the modules are 2-sided (chips on both sides), You could get 256 MB. If they are 1-sided, You'll probably get only 128 MB. Try and see... Cheers, Jan

Seems that Mercutio hit the 3k on posts. Congrats, and disregard the "lucky bastards" that stay fit&thin with McDonald's-diet... Jan

Works nicely... :evil: Jan

Unless the processor is something like 3 GHz with Hyper Threading enabled, the only time PIV will throttle back is when the CPU fan stops/breaks. IIRC there is/was a video at Tom's Hardware where the HSF was removed from PIV and Athlon XP when running Q3. PIV kept going (though it slowed down)...

No, Tea, You are not. The only stupid question is the one which is not asked... Jan

Yes, Tea, they do. Too bad that we have zero PIVs in this thread though. These Celerons are based on the Tualatin-core (PIII, that is). The cooling is not so bad either (below 40 deg C), I just could lower the noise a bit if I had any extra fan mounts in the back. Cheers, Jan

True. And I'm even less expert than Coug... Jan

Yup, that's right. First I have to rip the front bezel off, then the whole cover slides off... Or it should, as I mentioned, the case is bit bent, so it comes off with force. PITA compared to my Antec... Jan

Blake, I'd like to emphasize on "old version": The case was bought in 1999. It has the notorious one-piece cover and only the front fan mount. There is no back fan mount (allthough I've started to think about making one). I have nothing against the case per se, nor to Enlight. It just doesn't...

Actually, I think that the temp inside the case is higher than that. The case I'm using is an old version ofEnlight EN-7237 with 235W PSU. The case has really poor cooling, only fan is in the PSU. There is a 80mm fan mount in the front, but it has no use in cooling. The motherboard's other temp...

I did make such a connection to a friend of mine once with an older version of Siemens WebWasher. It's an ad-blocking software with a proxy server. I don't know how well it worked, but surfing and ICQ worked over it. So, get a proxy program to the "server" machine. Cheers, Jan

I used to run PIII 600 MHz (Coppermine, undervolted to 1.3V) with retail HSF. At full fan speed the processor (measured from the HS) had temp of 32 deg C. When I found SpeedFan, I could drop the fan speed to 70%, seeing only 1-2 deg rise. At that point the fan was inaudible, or all fan noise I...

One of the biggest problems is the number of wires inside the case. You must simplify it somehow (no point running 30+ wires outside of the case). You would need at least six wires (+12V, +5V, +3.3V, -5V, -12V and the ground wire) from the external PSU to the computer. The wires must be very...

LOL :D Less talking, more... :wink: Jan

This is starting to sound like eXistenZ... Jan

Merc, have You looked at the Hoontech's SB daughterboards? Cheers, Jan

First, sorry to haul up this thread. I just wanted to comment on the price of the Fortron 350W PSU. It seems that I could get it now from an OC shop nearby. The price is 82 Euros, including VAT. I don't know about the s&h, as I usually pick up stuff directly from the shop. XPDirect has the same...

Sorry about that Merc. I think that I missed that one... :oops: Did some digging at SR... This is what I found. Cheers, Jan

I talked on the phone with an IBM support person two years ago when my 75GXP broke the first time. He said that the warranty period of the replacement drive is 90 days, or the remaining warranty time, depending which one is longer. (longer being the warranty time...) I don't think this has...

I'll second that. Jan

"deadspot" is, well, what You said. It's there, but it's "effective" only near (less than one cm) the fan. Also, most of the "cooling" happens in the pins/fins of the HS. What can be more interesting is "hotspot" with AMD processors (Intel uses heat spreaders, to eliminate hot-spots). The...

CougTek, maybe a heads-up for dial-up users would be in place... Pics are quite big. Well, doesn't bother me, as I'm used to slow with this 64k ISDN. Multitasking is the keyword here. Jan

HEY! That link doesn't work...... :wink: Jan

It seems that Eugene got most of it back, and by replacing the forums back deleted those two posts that I linked. This was not Eugene's fault (there is no clarification at the SR forums though), from what I understood the ISP they used did something. Actually, Frank got his post count over...

Addendum:

Seems that the ISP Eugene & Davin were using had some sort of accident. Aftermath: one full day's worth of posts lost. Read more: http://forums.storagereview.net/viewtopic.php?t=9242 http://forums.storagereview.net/viewtopic.php?t=9241 Cheers, Jan

Hopefully VIA's coming Intel-chipsets don't suck as much as they do with AMD. But, most likely the chipsets will have just the same southbridges as AMD ones. Jan

This made me wonder: "Drives in enterprise systems will accelerate their move to 15,000 rpm technology as new manufacturers enter the market" What manufacturer would that be? AFAIK Seagate, IBM/Hitachi, Fujitsu & Maxtor already have 15krpm drives. So, does the above mean Maxtor, as their drive...

No no Blake, You just think faster than You can type... :lol: Jan

True. It's nice to see my 4-year-old BX rig running @ 1,3 GHz. Sadly I think that my current system isn't so futureproof... The performance is ok ATM... Jan

To the original topic: I started a thread at SR about the issue. Seems that the best way to be certain is to either use WinBench99 and check the transfer rates, or to check the product/model code. If it's "WD1200JB-00DUT0" (this relates only to 1200JB BTW, but that's really the problematic...

Are You sure, Coug? I've always thought that Intel started using Slot-1 as they had the rights to it, similiar to renaming 586 to Pentium for rights. AMD bought their Slot-A technology (with the EV6 bus architechture along it) from Digital. Cheers, Jan

The game honold posted is better IMO. The other game needs too much "trick" shots... Jan
