I have the most basic nvidia 430/410/4xx drivers i can get... i can't install any of the video drivers cause it says that it doesnt detect a compatible device on my system... So what would this bios mod entail, how would I go about it, and would it be worth it?

got the smbus and realtek wireless working just now and the rest you linked are PERFECT! stupid ass gateway people claiming there were no xp drivers available.. (took drivers from older xp models with the same hardware....) Now to burn not one, two, or 3, but five thousand backups of these...

Just got a new laptop, 2gb ram, 160gb hd, 1.8ghz athlon64 x2, pretty decent I'd say. Was a good buy until I turned it on and met Vista Premium. Slower than expected, makes the laptop constantly run HOT, adobe photoshop cs2 problems, as well as many of my other favorite/necessary programs did...

Two Jamo Classic 10 speakers, 175w rms, 280w peak. Powered by a Denon Class A amp, 4 channel, 400w. Speakers are bi-wired. Signal output by an X-Fi XTreme Fidelity. IMO the speakers are under-powered.

GRAW1 and 2 sucked.

This progression to 65nm seems slow to me, and the progression of dual to quad core is also mighty slow. I'll put aside the fact that software still has catching up to do...

Is this motherboard any good? I'm interested in getting something that i can pop an 805 in for cheap. i have an agp card id be using in it and 2 gigs of ram. i'll also have a zalman 9500 to cool it. any info is much appreciated!

I highly UN-Recommend the M2N-E -- I bought it in hopes of overclocking my cpu (i have a 4200+) more than on my current board, ECS KA3 MVP, but it failed. I kept the thing for a month, nothing but problems. ECS KA3 I can at least keep my 4200+ stable at 2.6ghz, the m2n not only had many other...

I feel like I've done this before..... EDIT: XP X64 is about as useful as a pecker on the pope....

Saitek. I have the G15, and most of ---- all of its extra functions are just about useless. LCD is 'cool' but other than telling you what song your listening to and the time, it serves little purpose. G-Keys - FFXI, barely useful in an mmorpg if you don't use a windower ( which you...

Interesting thread. I think I'll try this out on my 4200+ cause I get a really bad OC on this KA3 MVP....2.6-2.8 stable would kick some butt... 3.0 would be amazing (probably just a dream..).... . . Will post results soon as I take the time to do this... hopefully by the end of the week! EDIT...

most of the time it gives troubles......

i don't know why, but i was compelled to do this ....

ATI's linux support sux. The drivers run like crud, 40-60% slower than their NV counterparts (and on an x1950xt, you can feel it..)

Open source is nice, for SOME things. Right now though it's still very immature. I've spent the last two weeks trying to find a 100% stable, user friendly, and feature rich *nix distro. I built a brand new pc to do this, AM2 4600+, 2gb ram, ECS KA3 MVP, G15 Keyboard, A4tech X750 mouse...
