    CPu ? How Hot is Too Hot ?

    20 degrees idle says that it does a lot for the longevity of your processor!

    Mapped drives & permissions

    Need to make sure both file and share permissions allow write access. The lower of the two permissions takes effect, and they are both seperate permissions...

    What Processors/GPU's You had in the past ?

    At the moment, no. You need new RAM as it runs in 3s.

    CPu ? How Hot is Too Hot ?

    Why? If you OC it well, then you won't get stability issues, and you'll still benefit from a cooler idle and lower power consumption...

    What Processors/GPU's You had in the past ?

    Ah yes, I had a couple of S3 graphics cards, and a couple of 3dfx's. Those were the days!

    Oh, mustn't forget the Intel Atom 270!

    Sli On 2 similar cards.

    It's possible, but they have to be the same board - if it's reference design then it can be two different brands/clocks but the layouts have to be the same.

    VMWare ESXi

    SP=Solution Provider... And yes, the people I design the solution for are more than happy to spend the money. Unfortunately, the only way the company has made any money this year is through selling parts of the business, so they aren't too keen to lay anything out for a long term return...

    Overclocking PC Processor.

    Go on, you know you want to... 4GB RAM, 2.4GHz Quad... The machine can play Crysis on 1680x1050 Medium detail all day long... Which is more than playable!

    Overclocking PC Processor.

    £500 and you can have a watercooled system running a Q6600 (2.4GHz Quad), 2 DVD-RWs, 2 74GB HDDs, 8800GTX, 1kW Power Supply, HD Audio... :evil: As a Pentium D wouldn't be particularly cheap...

    Overclocking PC Processor.

    Buy mine. Already a shiteload faster, and plenty of room for overclocking. On my X38 board I've had 3.8GHz out of my Q6600, 28 hours Prime stable...

    Overclocking PC Processor.

    What breed of Dell? Let me know the Service Tag number (ends in a J, most likely 1J or 2J if it's a Pentium D) and I'll have a look.

    Overclocking PC Processor.

    Seriously... Clocked my 3.4GHz Pentium D to 3.6GHz on liquid and still hit 90 degrees with it! :eek: Desperately bad decision to weld two already hot processor cores together, but without it we'd not be where we are today!

    Overclocking PC Processor.

    All potentially - the Pentium D shipped with 955X and 975X chipsets of which not all boards could run Core2 chips due to a change in the specifications - even though many of them originally advertised this. However, trying to get more out of a Pentium D is just going to result in a very warm...

    VMWare ESXi

    See dk what you're missing is the company's desire to do everything for nothing. Being an SP you'll only ever be approached when someone has a cheque. Being a technical consultant within the business I'm permanently required to bo everything for nothing. And virtualisation isn't about the...

    Free HTML Editors

    Lol, Mods are good at that. Personally, Microsoft Expressions Web is one of my favourites at the moment as: A) I get it free B) It's not too bad C) It's very easy to get used to and as such very easy to hammer through sites Legitimately you'd need to buy it at £200-odd notes...

    VMWare ESXi

    Righty, just come back in here: dk - You're wrong. Flat no, ESXi is free for you to install on as many Host machines you like. You have to pay per incident for support, and you have to pay for Consolidated Backup and all the 'clever' stuff. However, I can very much assure you having had...

    PC Upgrading advice needed please - Long post sorry.

    Balls, that's rubbish. I run all my system (Quad, 4 sticks of RAM, 8800GTX, all clocked to hell and back, 8 HDDs and 2 ODDs, FDD, Sound Card, Vid Cap card, RAID card, huge numbers of fans, large pump, fan controller and VFD... Total consumption on power up is 490w, thrashing in a game using...

    Umm ipod switches off my pc - HELP!!!

    Re: Umm ipod switches off my pc Fucked cable or port can cause it, as it can bridge the wires in the USB causing it to short and power off for safety.

    Citrix Access Essentials

    Utter shite. Put your hand in your pocket and get yourself XenApp. Sexiness and functionality (including remote access using Secure Gateway 3.1) FTW!
