Thanks for the replies. Which card should I get - the Powercolor or the Sapphire ? The Powercolor has a modified HSF, would this be quieter than...
Hi all, I'm currently running Windows 7 using integrated graphics and would like to upgrade to a DX11 card. I have a Corsair VX 450W PSU....
I've fixed it - it would not boot from a Vista/7 disc, but I used a Ubuntu live CD and repaired the MBR via Terminal. Thanks anyway.
Hi, Whenever I try and boot into Windows - or to a USB drive, I get a message saying that BOOTMGR cannot be found. This happened after a...
Thanks. I just installed the last DX9 distro and all my games work.
Hi all, I've just install Windows 7 RC1 (64-bit) and it's great - apart from the fact that some of my older games such as Oblivion don't work....
Just added a new Phenom II X4 940 BE @ 3.4 - 2 SMP clients ...and an old Pentium D 930, but FAH is literally burning up the CPU 491

Just found this program - BurnTest - Basically stability testing. Seems to be far more stressful on the CPU than Prime95 - my temps on this are...
Problem is I don't have another AM2/2+ CPU or motherboard to test. Scan are going to replace the CPU anyway, as well as the motherboard.

Go for the 1TB. I have it in my HTPC and it's very quiet as well as quick.
I tried with 1 stick of RAM but it still doesn't work. Anyway, Scan have kindly agreed to send me a new Phenom II X4 940BE and a new motherboard...
The beeps were the same even with the RAM removed - and I've already tried it outside the case on a wooden table. Oh well, looks like it's time...
