Disk Manager Can't See New Drive

Hmm, I figured out that I can create a RAID array from the BIOS, and it became 0+1. But now System Properties reports error loading drivers for the drive. What to do now? :( Oh, I've got the drivers from Asus, the latest (1.0.0.8, 2002-Aug), for the controller. Edit: Ah, after connecting...

Disk Manager Can't See New Drive

I've just got a Seagate 160GB SATA disk with NCQ (ST3160827AS). After using Seagate's DiscWizard to install the drivers, the Device Manager was able to see a "SCSI Disk Device". However, Windows' Disk Manager does not see a new drive. I then tried to use DiscWizard again to create new...

Mac G4 Support for USB2

I'm trying to get a 2.5" external enclosure for Mac <-> PC use. But do Mac G4s support USB 2.0, or just USB 1.1? I tried looking at the technical specification pages, and it only says "Number of ports: USB: 2". Thanks.

It's not cantonese. And it's yellow. I don't know what dialect it is though. And I think "Ong" is "Wang" in Mandarin, the Wang for prince. And Ng... many have it right, but here's my another attempt... "uhng".. "uhh + ng" :D

Macs <-> PCs with CDRW

Does anybody know how to share data between PCs & Macs using CDRW? My own machine is a PC and the school's a Mac. It has Toast on it. But I want to be able to transfer files I worked at home and at school using something similar to DirectCD. Can Toast do packet writing? Thanks.

13V on 12?

I installed MBM to check my temps but instead I found out that several voltage indicators don't look too healthy, particularly the 12V feed at 13V. Is this an indication that the PSU is getting overloaded? Or unclean power line? Etc etc?

Computer at half the performance :(

nick: I have an 80mm fan blowing on the Radeon 9000 heatsink, funneled, so I'm sure it's not overheating. Besides, do graphics card chips throttle down when overheating already? I thought only CPUs... Bill: I'm not sure what quality settings you are referring to. But I have turned off AA and...

My system specs are: Athlon XP 2100+ Sapphire Radeon 9000 Pro 64MB 512MB DDR333 When I benched it last year I got 7k+ and 1.2k on 3dmark01 and 03 respectively... but now I get 2.5k and 612 for them. I think I might have turned down a lot of settings because when the vid card fan was dying, I...
