1003.004 doesn't work well for me! Whereas previously setting HTT to auto resulted in X4 - it now gives X5. If you set X4 you still get X5! Doh! If I try to set X4 in ntune the system hangs. I'm gonna try 003 now and see if its better! I wonder why they released 2 beta bioses in one day?

EDIT

Just flashed on the date on 003 was 12/15, so they'd been hanging on to it for a while!

So far for me 003 is much better! It actually allows me to set HTT to what I want without crashing

I need to get some more volts into this CPU now. I can 3dbench at 2600, but not prime stable at all. I can only set max vcore of 1.475!

We'll I finally ordered my Asus A8N-SLI, FX55, and Corsair 3200XL pro 1 gig, at Monarch Computers, should be shipping by the end of the week (I hope ). Monarch also gives you HL2, Far Cry, and 4 months worth of Napster with there compo's (any body need a cheap Bronze HL2 cert.)

Hey, anyone know which is better to use for the nForce chipset software? On ASUS's website they have two files for the chipset and on nVidia's website they still have the 5.10's. When looking at the 5.10's it doesn't list the NF4 as being supported. Any ideas on this one?

Has anyone done a RAID 0 with 4 Raptors? Is it even supported?

I just ordered 2 myself yesterday but out of stock maybe in 2 weeks, did you get them from Chumbo? It sure looks like your setup is running good. How's the noise on those 6800gt's? Thanks for any info

Yeah, got them from Chumbo. Noise is fine, haven't noticed anything more than what my 6600 gts were puttin out.

Great play in farcry too, i can't believe how fast it moves. MUCH IMPROVEMENT over my 1 6800gt agp card!!!

Hello,

has anybody set up S-ATA RAID 0 with the nVidia onchip-controller ?
I built a driver-disk and tried the F6-method to install the RAID-driver in WinXP.
When setup accesses the driverdisk it finds two different entries which are both marked as "required" ?
Does setup really need both drivers for RAID ?

How does the IDE and RAID section in your device-manager look like after installation ?

Just finished building ... specs are:

3200+
A8N-SLI D
2x 512MB Kingston KHX3200
2x Albatron PC6600GT's in SLI
WD Raptors
TT 735 Polo CPU cooling
Antec 550 TC PSU

On boot I'm getting no further than repeated long beeps at POST - nothing video. I'm thinking video cards or memory. Anyone know what repeated 2-3 beeps means?

Sierra_abx · 12-30-2004, 12:21 AM

2-3 beeps usually means a memory problem. Try booting with only one stick of RAM.
