Best MOBO for the buck?

If the ECS K7S5A works- it's the best bang for the buck. I just replaced my ECS with a MSI KT7266A Pro2-RU. Slightly pricey, but worth it.

I need your ECS K7S5A troubleshooting opinions please

Hi. I just canned my ECS K7S5A board after struggling with it since September. I built my friend and I the same system. His is great- mine wasn't. Here's what you should do: ( for your sanity ) -- Choice A: 1. Return ECS board. 2. Get a VIA (266, 266A), nForce or AMD based board. If you...

K7S5A - getting desperate

The K7S5A can be a problematic board. Either you love it or hate it. I built a friend a new system (1.4GHz Athlon, ECS K7S5A and 512 DDR). His runs absolutely perfect. I built the same system for myself. I have had weird problems since I've built it in September. We ordered at the same time...

Which motherboards have the highest RMA rates?

Yah. Thanks. I am not trying to assassinate Abit's rep; but I think it's interesting how a computer's malaise could actually be a faulty mobo. I would never think of a mobo as a problem because they are so transparent. Two of my friends about Abits at the same time I did. They have no probs...

Which motherboards have the highest RMA rates?

I think it would help if you looked at from a production point of view. Whenever you do QA/QC on whatever you produce, there will be expected tolerances and failure rates. Your product could be canned vegetables, luxury cars or sound boards. In my experience, usually, a producer will set a...

PULLED: POSSIBLE VENDOR FRAUD

I'm still confused. I have a 1000MHz Athlon Socket A on a ABIT KT7 with a 256MB stick of Micron PC133 RAM. Will this memory work on my system? I'd defintely pull out the old stick, if it was incompatible. Please help. Thanks!

Digital Cable Modem Shutting Off - Your Thoughts?

I have a RCA DCM-105 Cable Modem. Within the past 2 weeks, it now decides shut itself off at various times. Has anybody heard of such a thing? I've contacted RCA to see, if they'll do something about it. But I'd like to know your thoughts on this, too.

The Commodore 64 Rules!!

I loved my C64. I loved my C128. Man, I wasted so much of my college years playing Gunship, and having drunken 4-way games of the Summer/Winter Games by Epyx. Great games, great computer.

Have you seen this problem?

I have a RCA Cable Modem (DCM105) hooked up to NetGear FA-310TX network card. Recently, after I moved my network card to a different PCI slot, sometimes when my power management (at least, that what I think it is) turn my HD off, I lose my network connection. But here's the weird thing, the...

Excel 97 Macro Help for Science

I need a solution to actually a simple problem really quickly. My problem is that I have not programmed in a long time, so I know the general algorithm of what needs to be done-- but the code. Here goes: Review: I primarily deal with a 15 code: 14 octal values plus 1 binary value at the end...

Calphalon Hard-Anodized 7-piece Cookware $235 shipped

I concur. You have to eat! If someone gave me a choice between a GeForce3 and a new set Caphalon pans, I'd probably pick the pans. Nothing's better!
