<0> ne1 up for a hw question? im just a software guy
<1> the answer is no
<1> to your unasked question, that is
<2> does teh sun go around the earth or vice versa?
<0> exactly
<0> lemme RTFM on that 1
<1> you can't get answer if you don't ask your question
<1> and i think the onjoin message says don't ask to ask a question
<3> can i ask a question
<0> my box was midle for a yesr. Cleaned off dust intyernally, started it up, conked out after 1 hr
<0> midle=idle
<1> ok
<0> cpu in another box does not work
<0> is MB gone too?
<1> too little information
<0> no post, fans work
<1> you say that the cpu doesn't work in another, known to be good motherboard?
<0> no9t sure on MB, wondering if a way to check b4 i sprint for a cpu
<0> sprint=spring
<1> how many motherboards do you have that can take the cpu?
<0> well, dropped 2.4 ghx cpu in an older 1.4 box
<1> describe the process by which you came to the conclusion of "cpu in another box does not work"
<0> its all i got
<4> put 1.4 in 2.4 box
<0> pulled cpu out, put cpu in older box, no POST
<0> put older cpu back in, it boots
<0> (on older box)
<5> try the older cpu in newer box?
<4> old cpu in new box
<1> heh
<0> bit wondering if box with newer MB is worth salvaging
<1> yo udon't even know what's broken yet
<0> would old cpu in new box work? would i fry older cpu?
<1> it might, depends what kind of cpus you have...
<4> maybe and maybe
<0> hee hyee, so its NOT all 3.3 voplts...
<1> are you drunk?
<0> not yet
<4> 3.3 V are you running a pentium 200?
<0> you dcc'ing shots?
<1> yes you are
<0> again, im no HW guy
<4> the new MB should be back compatible, presume this is 478
<1> don't know if he's talking intel or amd at this point...
<4> nope
<4> ***uming
<0> both old/new cpus are AMD
<1> i think he's drunk
<4> whoops
<4> 462
<0> dont really care if older cpu fries, but wondering what status would be if nothing happens..
<0> (older cpu in newer MB)
<1> you would probably be unconscious if you blew a .45
<0> 1.0=legally drunk, at least in my home state
<0> \oops
<0> thats right, .10
<1> really? i thought .08 was the limit everywhere
<4> more likely you will crush the CPU die
<1> and you might ****up the motherboard
<4> These are probably nforce2 boards, and I ***ume the one that is flaking out is an Asus
<0> hee hee, yep
<1> ah, you're in m***achusetts... that explains it...
<0> that explains a LOT
<4> that asus board is never coming back
<1> i've never had an asus board that died on me
<1> unless it's been something i caused...
<0> i didnt know it had left :/
<6> you obviously havent had many
<4> I've had enough
<1> i've bought asus exclusively since 1993 or 1994
<4> and that CPU probably is not coming back either
<4> have fun shopping!
<1> probably a total of 20-30 boards between my own machines and those that i have put together for friends and family
<6> heh
<0> i know cpu is toast, trying to get up and running with *some* box by days end (hot job)
<1> actually, i bought some ecs boards a few years ago
<7> i ahve a CPU , brown box, and i dont know which socket type it is, is there any way of finding out?
<6> let me guess, they worked fine too?
<1> they are still working fine =)
<6> that would make you approximately the luckiest motherboard buyer in the history of the world, if you've actually been buying that **** since 93-94.
<6> so I call bs :x
<6> no offence dude
<1> well, for the first 4 or 5 years, i wasn't buying asus specifically
<1> that's just what the shop built their machines with
<8> hello, i have asus turion64 laptop with 256 mb ati graphics, windows xp 32 bit pro, i think its problem with windows but i dont know where to ask about it, when i ran some games they begin stopping at some interval (looks like it tries to fake a lag of game) but it is impossible cause this computer is hundreds of times better than my old computer and even diablo 2 is stopping (even with lowest graphics) and in simple places ... fifa world cup does that stoppin
<1> had one asus die, replaced it with an abit, it died too
<1> problem was the power supply
<3> i had those ECS boards with the SIS chipsets in the socketA days, **** works fine
<4> SiS chipsets are underrated
<1> yeah, that's what i used, k7s5a or something
<6> yes they are heh
<4> at least they stay up
<3> i think SIS is a solid chipset, just not the fastest
<6> the k7s5a had a great chipset.
<6> easily as good as the kt266a
<3> i have asus with sis right now
<3> via = teh poo
<6> its just that the board.. was m***ively unreliable
<5> biif are you using the same xp install or same hdd that the old machine had?
<6> uhm
<3> maybe first gen Rukk, but they were fine
<8> no snoops its laptop
<3> i built 10systems off the k7s5a easily, and they are all still working
<6> if you were actually ivolved in the performance scene back in the day, you would have no qualms about praising the kt266a
<1> i usually don't buy the brand new model of things
<8> i got installed it already
<8> from asus :(
<6> that was a GREAT chipset
<8> but i dont know whats the problem, why games are stopping (looks like they 're trying to fake a lag)
<3> except it made your **** BSOD every 4 hours
<8> battlefield 2 runs fine
<3> :-p
<6> BillGates: and I get boxes with k7s5as back all the time that my boss built before he hired me, ****ed motherboards.
<8> i dont know whats the problem
<6> I've probably replaced 50 of the ****ing things
<8> maybe reinstall directx or something..
<8> i tried to reinstall drivers..
<1> how old are those boards Rukk? =)
<6> 3~ years
<5> was the last a lappy or pc?
<1> hmm, ok
<1> was thikning they were 5yrs old
<6> and its not capacitor failure or something
<9> has anyone ever put on an lcd protector very well without bubbles? is it possible?
<5> it's possible, but why bother?
<1> so, like i was saying, i have had boards die, but i think those failures were caused by other components
<9> my keys scratch the phone in th epocket
<1> just use a credit card faggot
<9> that **** doesnt work i tried it on my mfg screen protector
<1> mine had some bubbles, but they came out after a few days
<1> worked fine for me
<9> was it the sticky kind or the static one?
<1> sticky faggot
<9> k
<8> do you know some utilities which can speed up pc by cleaning unneeded files, registry etc... ?
<5> how much ram does that lappy have?
<1> which snoops?
<8> 1gb
<5> directed at biif..
<1> oh =)
<5> asus could have botched the install..
<8> a lot of ram is always free
<5> Umm, you're using latest drivers and such I'm ***uming
<8> yes
<8> i think the problem is windows update, i remember those games didnt lag when i wasnt updating xp
<8> i think
<3> HUH
<8> directx reinstall didnt help :(
