Thanks all! I found it in the bios, in a tab I would have normally never looked in. It was "event awake" or something like that, and it was enabled and set to a default time of 0:0:0. Disabled it and it stayed asleep all night long. And yes it was powered off/shut down, not in standby or...
I just upgraded my computer and everynight at 12am it turns on. It is right next to my bed and the first night scared me as I was just asleep and it all of a sudden turned on. I was like that was wierd, but it is still doing it. This is the first day I am actually remembering to try and...
Ok I did it. See first post for update info. It is working ok as I am using it currently. Only thing of note, was the bios had a warning flashing something about voltage or something but I checked everything and didn't see anything wrong with what I changed. Does anyone know with this bios...
Thanks a lot! I figured someone would have a set up similar to mine. I will try it when I get home from work tonight and post my results. Sounds like it won't be as hard or confusing as I am thinking.
Thanks for the other input also!
Also, should I write down everthing I change so I can...
I have built many computers over the years, but have not done any overclocking.(mostly because I have never had anything that could overclock enough to be worth doing it) I have just assembled the following:
E2180 M0 w/stock hsf
Gigabyte p35-DS3L
4gig hp ddr2 667 ram
Ultra 600w ps
Forsa...
Is there a way to find out which key I used on the computer I am upgrading. I got a new motherboard, cpu, and ram and I want to do a clean install. I don't want to use the key for the other computer. The only information I can find is the activation key I think. Any ideas? If it makes a...
It says "OEM for HP" right at the bottom of the page. What does this mean? Will it still work like normal or is there custom drivers or what? Great deal but if it is incompatible I want to know before I get it.
I have never really overclocked before, but I might try it if it will save me a lot of money. I guess if I blow the cpu it is just a temp anyway. If it works out maybe I will just hold on to it for a while.
Can I use the stock cooling and still get a decent overclock? I don't really want...
I am upgrading a second computer I have and I wanted to get it up and running sooner rather than this summer so I can play some games with my kid. I need a decent temporary cpu till prices come down on the E8400(and they are back in stock).
I have:
CPU: none
MB: gigabyte DS3L
Memory...
Had to return the first one I got becuase it was DOA. I finally got the replacement today. Looks different than all the other options I have seen for this card. It has a big zalman style fan that takes up an extra slot in the case and it has individual ram sinks also. Worked just fine this...
I didn't even bother with the photo copy, I just cut out the barcodes on the boxes and sent it all in. Got my rebate a couple of weeks later. I just put two stamps on the envelope instead of one.
