man, i forgot about the hot glue as a method to attach the wire...i might try it...can the glue be removed without making a mess?Quote:

I got the parts for my sytem today and I can't get it to post for the first time. It does the dual boot thing, and I can see the led's on the motherboard light up and the case, gpu, and case fans spin, as do the hard drives, but don't see anything on my monitor.

I wish the instructions where better. :cool:

the intel chipset software described on page 3-2 is installed once you are in windows desktop.
Wow how did I not know. :shocked: :(Quote:

are you able to switch out memory to a different brand?....if so, you can then get into the bios and set 2.1v for Vdimm, save, shutdown and switch out the sticks....the only thing with that procedure is that you can never clear CMOS...you'll be right back in the same situation.
I don't have any other sticks of ram besides these... what are some 2x1gb ddr2-800 kits that will work with the 1.8v?
hi guys!
anybody try to put 2.5V Vdimm? because with this board windows shutdown if i put most of 2.4V Vdimm... it's strange...
(please excuse my bad english, i'm french...:shrug: )
there is some other problem than the Vdimm...what are you clocking at?...how much Vcore?Quote:

i try with diferent vcore, all of ratio fsb/ram and all of cpu ratio too, but nothing... only in single chanel i can put 2.5V but not more...Quote:

sounds like you have a defective memory stick...AND...2.5v is to high...on this board, you only need around 2.2v to 2.3v the MOST!....my dominators DDR1143 will hold DDR1080 with just 2.1vQuote:

i think it depends on the board...i put my quad cpu, when i bought it, on my QuadGT board...i used an old Antec 400w supply that had only one 12v ATX supply line...it booted fine and even overclocked too!...now...i didn't have power hungry VC at that time...it was a modest 7600 GT card.Quote:

I am now going with Vista since my ~7 year old floppy drive just died on me. :shrug:
Just use the drives from the CD? :(
yes, ctrl + I...
supposedly the drivers are suppose to be on the vista CD but i would have the floppy drivers on the USB drive just to make sure.
The sad thing that I think one of my Seagate drives are going bad. :rolleyes:Quote:

But nothing but the BIOS can load after the restart. If I put the Vista/XP disc in, it says "Disk boot failure... Insert system disk"
Is it the lack of drivers?
I was able to achieve some pretty decent results on a system build for my brother. His system specs are very similar to mine below with the following exceptions: E6850, Plextor 760A, EVGA 8800GTS 640MB, and Ballistix instead of Tracers (same speed, though).
Please note this was done with ALL DIMMs populated with Crucial PC8500 Ballistix running at 1068 MHz, 5-5-5-15. I also ran Memtest for over 6 hours without issue. I used only generic white thermal paste (cheap junk from Radio Shack) on a ThermalRight U120-X, which was lapped. The only "mod" I did was hang one of my LL 120mm case fans on top of the 8800GTS and replace the 965 thermal pad and ICH9 stock grease with Arctic Cooling MX-1. I firmly believe this 6850 had even more to go since temps were quite cool but I wanted to stop at this point to record the results.

Ahh, I read what you said before wrong. I don't think thats possible, at least I've never seen/tried it.Quote:
