I've told Eugene in the feedback forum to stop using PNG for the image as theres no reason to - JPG would be fine.

yep... if only more people would open their drives, one just might find a pattern... perhaps (very random speculation) the actuator arm is flexible and distorts at times doing this (if this is indeed the usual reason of failure of 75GXPs). But then again, doesnt IBM open their drives to see...

Oh yeah - I recruited another machine - XP1800... Username: BrwmogazoS

You want benchmarks or? I remember when we benchmarked a Duron 1000 with DDR memory and MSI K7T266 Pro 2 (not the duron that will be used for G@H, someone else's), they were mostly on par with eachother (Celeron 1.2@1.3 at the time) in most things (Superpi, Povray and Mathmark IIRC) If you want...

Best looking drive... Barracuda IV, X15 (I don't think the 36LPs have a different design to the original... or do they?), Atlas 10K-II/III. Worst looking? Certainly WD's old Caviar range. Big square brick. Accept only the finest: Caviar. RIGHT!!

OK, dont know why I didnt think of this before, but now managed to install as a service on my XP box. I'll have to restart it and check that everything is OK, and then if so, install it on the P3-733, and tommorow I'll get a Celeron 1.2@1.46 in the game, next week, Duron 1000 and some other...

I have no idea why they haven't got it available on their main site. What happened with that lawsuit? Wouldn't the release of this patch be considered evidence that IBM recognises problems with the drive? I doubt anyone will be able to tell us if it works, most people have thrown out their IBMs...

What I meant was I was looking for a program that will let me minimise the programs that _I_ want to the tray - not all of them. I'm running it there in the task bar as usual till I find something that will let me select what to put in the tray and leave the rest alone in the taskbar. :wink...

Thought of an Asus Terminator? My flatmate has one, they come in AMD/Intel (P3/Tualatin/P4) flavours, are extremely quiet (92mm low speed fan) and you can get one over here for 150 pounds (roughly $200) which includes everything onboard - all you need is hard drive, memory and processor. Its...

http://web6.scan.co.uk/OLQ/LogQuery.ASP Go to the bottom where is says "Click here to get HDD test utility". Link to the IBM DFT utility... and that form was a generic support form. But hey, whats that further down? Firmware update for 60GXP and 75GXPs (DTLA) for "failures due to prolonged...

I've started running it again. For the time being anyway. Toggle Minimise puts anything I minimise in the tray and that sucks... bleh. I'm looking for something else that will only minimise the programs I select. Oh and that Genome spy is junk :roll: The search continues.

http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?s=418ad510cb6f0d58ebe1c246fdd0f620&threadid=153305 hmm... looks a bit suspicious... anyone round here had similar problems?

I'm downloading and checking out the apps, thanks. I'll let you know how it goes.

Try Operation Flashpoint. Its very fun but only if played multiplayer. The game is very buggy I think, I've run into problems getting it to work properly and at decent speed on several systems, random reboots (doesn't like most of the Detonator drivers though all other games play fine)...

Whoops... forgot to update you guys... can someone please please tell me of a good GUI for this thing so that I can check overall work unit progress and let me cache results, and also hide the damn console window in the system tray or somewhere? Until then, I'm back on SETI :roll:

haha I tested my Viper 550 on the machine over here... truly sad... www.rotting-energy.net/Forums/tntpower.png

I'm joining too, along with a bunch of friends and so on. Right now (still downloading the g@h app) there will be the following machines: - XP1800@1667 MHz (might go higher once I get some time to overclock more) - Celeron 800@1066 - Celeron T 1.2@1.46 - Duron 1000 (morgan) - XP1800@1710 a...

Used to have a Dual 667@735 with Molex Radial Fin fans on them. Enermax 350w PSU, YS Tech 80mm fans front and rear (3 of them) running at 7v (rear) and the front ones at low speed via the Lian Li's switch. I have modified the front and rear fan holes so as to decrease turbulence and increase...

Very nice - only thing that jars the eye (maybe) is the title text - its a little jagged. Anything smoother you can use? (perhaps make it into a graphic with antialiased text but might not be worth it (should be small in 256 colour PNG..)

You mean those blowers? Those are nice, I have one off a Silverado, Nidec Gamma or something. I made my own system using a rear slot cover that held it up right in front of the memory on my old system and blew the air right at them.

erm... brushless DC motors such as the ones in your typical PC fan won't work the other way round. Only normal commutator motors will work this way.

Happy Birthday :mrgrn: Have some sparklers and cake

That memory bandwidth sounds OTT, as others pointed out in the original post

You mean the Titanium model? Like GeForce 2Ti ? I've never seen it abbreviated to GTi but hey, whatever rocks your boat :lol:

For the P2-450 I'd go either for an Asus P2B or something like the Soyo SY-6BA+III. Solid reliable boards though the Asus has many jumpers to fiddle with but once you set them its one of the most reliable and stable P2-P3 boards.

You can also try Terran Mediacleaner. There is not a single video file it won't losslessly convert or recompress from one format to another.

Not very good with graphics cards, are we Tony? :wink: Its GeForce, 2, MX200, or GTS. GTi.... hahah :roll: :mrgrn: The only cards I've had problems with was S3 Trio 3D (AGP, 4mb), ATI AIW Rage 128 (PCI, 16Mb) both due to useless drivers. I'm a rusted on nVidia fan and haven't had any...

Yep, I have to agree, I don't remember particular posts but I do remember thinking that he must work for WD from what he said

Looks like an LCT from the monumental access times

Ah OK cool, spot on with mine! Thats good, thanks.

Thanks, I've changed mobo to.... A7V266-E as well now, seems the MSI was screwing it up :evil: I'm also running it at 140MHz fsb right now, so having something to compare to would be nice.

Whoah... that is expensive....

Isn't there anyone that will do totally unlimited access? Heck, I was paying 6 pounds per month (something like $8 US) for no call charges, 56k speed and no download limit. Well, they did cut me off every two hours as their terms specify but leave it on autoredial and you can download around...

Do what I do. Use Virtual Drive by Farstone. Copy CDs to your drive, take them out, stick em in the cupboard, forget you even had a CD-rom drive.

CacheMem should be run from DOS for accurate results. Feel free to leave it out of you can't be arsed. You can download WinRAR from http://216.40.248.4/rar/wrar290.exe Thanks again.

Hi there, thanks. Uploading as we speak. Gotta love my new ADSL connection!!

Just set up my new system comprising of the following: MSI K7T266 Pro2 XP1800+, Alpha PAL8045 w/ Papst fan (I forget the model) 512Mb Crucial PC2100 (2x256) (all the other stuff is from my old computer) I was wandering if anyone has something similar (preferably with the same mobo) to compare...

Creative, certainly!

Whoa... it just dumped the codes there though I pasted from character map. I like using those characters when I get bored, I sedn messages like that on ICQ to my friends pretending their computer is broken, and finally after manu hours of them trying to communicate, I send them an image done in...

Which is also, broadly speaking, why I still always refer to NRG = MC? as "Energy".) Hey, whats so hard about NRG = mc²? (ALT-0178 FYI :mrgrn: ) How's this for some Bin-Laden language? جزشگ۵۸۳چعבֿשּׂﺡﺤﻖﻬﻳ

Or the mother, or the sister... Back at home we've got two cats my sister found in a rubbish bin around 7 years ago (you don't want to know how they were found - in a tied up plastic bag if you care) and we've still got them. Never like to go out of the house, they might go half way down the...

I'm 21 in July

Sounds like what Headlight software did with GetRight some years back. When one tried to enter the serial from the classic "PC Oscar" program/database it wouldn't accept the code (or any other for that matter) and then redirect your browser to a page telling you off for what you did.
