That?s true of some of the server boards but the Skulltrail board has regular FB-DIMM sockets that are located in the same way as a standard RAM socket.
I read the opposite of this somewhere. AMD will be currently working towards taping out at 45nm the initial draft of the silicon and if that design has the bug which it likely does it means that they have to fix it. It?s hard to say how much time they will lose over this.
The packaging for the disc seems to have a unique alpha-numeric code on it but I don?t know if it?s a Vista key. It?s in the format xx-xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxx-xxxx
Thanks Soviet, that?s useful info.
Dell phoned me this morning after I emailed them yesterday and told me they didn?t know about the Downgrade. After they?d passed me on to Tech Support I managed to speak with someone that knew what they were talking about and I have 4 copies of XP on order...
Thanks, I used to have a backup copy from a Dell Latitude that I owned but I think I binned it once I sold the laptop. I?m sure I?ll get one from Dell once I can get through to the correct department.
Thanks, I don?t have a spare one though.
Thanks, that?s just the kind of info I?m after.
Did you use a Dell CD from another machine that came pre-installed with XP Pro or did you get a CD from Dell specifically for this purpose?
I?m not sure why you say that. The machines come with Vista installed and I will sell them with the original installation, I just want to offer them with the XP downgrade CD for people that require that. I have no intention of touching the OS installation, if they want to do the upgrade they?ll...
Thanks for the PDF link that helps clarify things even further.
I have an XP Pro full version retail CD so I can use that as the install media. I suppose I can use any valid key to install it and then phone MS when the activation fails.
I have 4 or 5 machines that I need to do this with so I...
Microsoft?s OEM license (http://download.microsoft.com/...1/downgrade_chart.doc) states that you can freely downgrade from Vista Business to XP Pro and still keep the Vista license for future use. I phoned Dell to ask them to send me an XP Pro disc but having being bumped around 3 different...
I?m not clear how the fluke was connected to the PC; are the measurements showing the AC power draw from the wall socket? I ask because in most tests looking at PC power consumption the values shown are AC power draw and some people don?t realise that power supplies are rated for DC output...
I have an Intel Bad Axe Version 1 and it seems to take a long time to POST. From pressing the power button it takes 15 seconds to display the POST screen and 31 seconds before the XP screen first appears. Is this normal?
The system has a single PCIe VGA card and no USB devices and is running...
