    Folding@Home

    Hey there, I upgraded my P4 to a Barton 2500, have been working on overclocking it so have not been folding on it lately. Also my daughter is back in school so her Athlon 1.2 is not running more that a couple of hours a day. The Barton should start folding on monday.

    SCSI reset problem

    I agree with Merc, I had the same thing with a Yamaha burner, I was able to get it to work when I changed cable positions so that my DVD drive was terminating the 50 pin chain instead of the Yamaha. You don't have the option of trying this unless you have another device you can plug in to...

    Weird transfer rates with new drive

    That sounds like the infamous SCSI Bug in Win XP / Win 2K (SP3 introduced it) The Promise card is seen as a SCSI device I Believe CAS wrote a Filter that fixed it (forced on Write Cache) search on SR

    Which IDE controller card?

    I thought that the coding was because all of the 80 pin cables were set up for 'cable select' of master & slave so orientation becomes an issue as one of the pins is not connected on the slave position. Jeff

    Which Linux Disto (yet again)

    How about minimum system requirements, I would like to try one as a Windows replacement on some older machines ( PII-400 or K6-2 400) but I think it would chug too much> Jeff

    VIA KX133 Memory Interleaving

    Clocker, In my experience (two KX-133 based boards) interleaving either works or it doesn't. I don't think I ever had a case where the machine was more stable with it disabled. Jeff

    I will be losing an Athlon XP 1700 in the morning, customer wants it. That will put me down to P4 2200 Athlon 1000 Dual P3 450 P2 750 Pentium MMX 200 @ 266 MHz I also left Folding on a customers machine (Cel 667) she though it was neat. If she doesn't change ID it should be crunching at...

    What Do you Think of this Slot A Problem?

    Glad the information helped. At least you know what happened to it, I agree though at the price it does not make sence to have it fixed. Jeff

    Stupid P4 chipset question

    Almost all of the 845 boards easily did the 533 bus, thats what made the P4 1.6 G such a good overclocker, 845E was first one to officially support the 533 P4 Jeff

    What Do you Think of this Slot A Problem?

    The old ABIT Slot A boards use to have a problem with the capacitors (abit newsgroup was talking about it months ago) I have never seen it myself but if you look at the capacitors around the slot check to see if any are bulging at the top. I don't no about RMA as most of the talk in the...

    NForce IDE Drivers Windows98/ME

    I did read through the entire driver installation method for Windows 98 (after I discovered the problem as it is no fun to Read The Manual First :lol: ) there is no place in there where they discuss the IDE Drivers, a search of ASUS, NVidia and the web in general turn up no information om IDE...

    Stupid P4 chipset question

    Tony, I have been building a fair number of P4 computers lately, the 845E chipset is the one to look at for solid system, don't know much about the Gigabyte versus Epox as I tend to build with ASUS. The 845E supports the 533 bus of the new P4's, has no built in video and if you use the 333 or...

    NForce IDE Drivers Windows98/ME

    Tried that both with 98SE and with ME, both times disk tranfers put CPU to 100%, other than that it works fine.... Maybe thats what they mean by supported - Works but poorly :-? Jeff

    F@H Why can't I send results?

    Tannin, Over in SR I believe you said you are running a firewall, have you checked the logs to see if the firewall is blocking that machine from sending results??? Jeff

    NForce IDE Drivers Windows98/ME

    Tea said: Makes sense, however there is no mention of IDE drivers at Nvidia.com, the chipset driver package contains nothing for IDE at all. I was wondering if some other manufacturers IDE drivers worked with it? Jeff

    NForce IDE Drivers Windows98/ME

    When I tried installing Windows 98 or ME on an Asus A7N266 for the IDE controller I get Standard PCI IDE Controller with the channels showing up as single fifo, hard disk usage pegs the CPU at 100 %. Tried changing the channels to dual fifo - same result. Tried changing the controller to the...

    Hi guys, I was a long time lurker at SR, think I only posted about 20 times. I have added three machines to the effort P4 2.2, P3 750 and my dual P3 450 Server. On the Dual 450, is there anyway to get both CPU's going? Right now only one is being used for Folding. Jeff
