DFI Ultra-D Updated BIOS

Did a 5min (as opposed to previous 30sec) CMOS clear, and I'm back to default. Thanks for the help.

DFI Ultra-D Updated BIOS

I tried going to DFI-Street, but apparently they just recently parted ways with the DFI company, so I dont know where else to go. My problem is, I just updated the BIOS on my DFI NF4 Ultra-D. Everything worked fine, it rebooted. I noticed my overclocked profile wasnt loaded, so I then...

US dollars? WTF? I know you're not in the US, but BenQ DW1655 similar drive. That's a HUGE markup if that's US dollars.

Raid 0 Controller Switch

They havent been moved yet, but the mobo has issues so I dont see how your solution helps me at all. Maybe I'm just not reading it right, even though I've reread it numerous times. Good news is a friend of mine has same mobo and willing to help me out.

Raid 0 Controller Switch

Thanks for the info Googer, but I dont see how that solution offers me any form of recovering my data. I already have a file server on my network, which does backups for all of my machines, and important data already gets backed up from the server about once every 2 weeks or so on dvd's. My...

Anyone running 4gb of Corsair 3500LLPRO on an ASUS A8N32SLI

I've read of cases where the BIOS will only see 3gb, but if you boot into Windows, you will see all of the ram.

Raid 0 Controller Switch

I have a raid 0 array, on a NF7-S mobo with a Silicon Image raid controller. I can no longer boot up the machine (I'm thinking mobo error after a bunch of testing). I have some old vacation pictures on the raid 0 array, that I dont have saved anywhere else. Is there anyway possible to move the...

Will the Mac become a gaming machine again?

Dusting off this old thread in hopes of getting some more insight and ideas going around again. How will Macs fair in the future, with the upcoming move to the x86 architecture? Good? Bad? Chicken wings?

can dropping an ipod affect the sound quality?

I was in the market for a flash based player for a long time, but was not a big fan of the shuffle. When the nano came out I wanted it immediately, but decided to wait at least one generation before Apple worked out their kinks. They always have problems on their first gen hardware. After...

Will the Mac become a gaming machine again?

So....was my original statement true then? Will the Mac become a viable gaming machine? If they're running the dev kits on G5's, they can probably run on Mac Mini's (or maybe future G5 Mac Mini's. Dont know if they can run on G4's). Things are looking mighty interesting. Edit...

You guys made good points. I guess I didn't think too much on it. I just figured PPC->PPC ports would be easier, but I failed to realize Linux/BSD are x86, and they arent acceptable gaming platforms.

Yeah, I wasnt 100% on if the PPC's in the Xbox 360 were the same as the ones on the current Macs, but I thought I read somewhere that they were gonna be powering the future dual-core Macs.

OK, now I'm no expert in computer architecture, but this thought came across to me the other day. People have said the upcoming Xbox 360 will be great for gaming and PCs as well, because games will most likely be multithreaded from the ground up, making all games that are ported, as well as...
