Hi guys,

Just taking a cruise down memory lane.................

I've been using Avira from a German company for years. It's not a resource hog like AVG is for you crunchers out there. I like the fact it also does root kit detection in the free version. Not a lot of free ones offer that. it updates daily. Check it out at http://www.free-av.com/

f. word for the Windows Vista and the 1GB RAM issue...they did that with the Win 2000/XP, when 256 was normal RAM... and the Win NT worked with 64MB nice...Win 98 with 16MB...Win ME with 16/32MB... i'm sticking with the old one WinXP....work fine with 512MB and everything is fast, even on the BP6.....

make sure you tell kuun b4 you junk your boards and Seti is not dead, seat classic is superceded. and the stats pages at boincsynergy are just as good as we had here Yeah I'll be sure to keep him in mind lol. I never said SETI was dead. Classic is done and so am I. I'm not interested in how much li...

"total posts 1" :shock: I know. It kinda reminds me of a ghost town in the "out back." :roll: In fact its been like this for several months. Ive logged in several times to less then 10 posts in 24hours. If it werent for OOH there would have been several days with zero posts. :cry: :cry: :cry: Part ...

I have located heat sinks like the ones used by purrkur for $4.99 ea.USD, (same heat sink but slower fan and less flow) and 80mm Delta fans that flow 47cfm @ 2700 rpm for $10.00 USD for 5! Did research on-line and found a site that not only researched the heatsinks them selves but also applied diff...

Hi, just managed to get my hands on a BP6 and matching sets of 366 and 466 celerons. I'm going to use this board in my HTPC-project. Any tips for me? I'll post some pics when I get my camera back, and I'm probably going to write a webpage about my project in the future. More on that later. Ps. Nice...

But some of the blame has to go against the code as it was written. I should mention that the software that gave us issues was a client and not a server side component. It is a financial application that does heavy duty calculations among other things. The code itself was faultless and worked on si...

Well thanks Purrkur, I was wondering what your point was. I guess it all depends on your perspective here. As an end user I see some benefit to HT. But I can see how it could cause problems in servers. Of course I still stick by the point that it’s free and if you don’t need it or it causes problems...

HT was cool. my friend has an HT pentium 4. It really doesn't impact anything that much in regualr activities. Bill is right saying it hekps what it helps and doesn't hurt what it doesn't help. It is still cool but multi-core-cpu systems are definately the way to go. I didn't mean to imply HT was p...

Most of you know that I have a certain dislike to Intel's Hyperthreading. Not the technology per se but Intel's implementation of it. It was never any good and it was never any more than just a marketing tool/gimmick. It seems like Intel is finally pulling the plug on the thing . They seem to be sa...

Hi! Just got two 500Mhz Cellis working together (now) in my recapped and ec10 modded ver 1.0 bp6 board. How big is the chance of buying two 366Mhz celerons on ebay and letting them work at 550 and 100Mhz FSB? the 500 ones dont overclock to 750mhz. that would have been a big surprise ;-). i dont lik...

I just bought myself a motherboard based on th 815 chipset from Intel with built in sound and graphics. The board is a micro ATX size with 3 PCI and 1 AGP port (despite the built in graphics) and I would say that the quality of it is impressive. It is a pull from a Fujitsu-Siemens computer. Along w...

I'm just guessing here, but I think it has more to do with how the two OS's handle IRQ's. I'd try just moving what cards you can to different slots. May very well solve your problem. Generally 16 bit hardware doesn't mean it's incompatible with 32 bit OS's.

yeah, but the Opterons & Athlons work better than P4s!!!

Not in my experience. My Northwood's are almost twice as fast as any non AMD 64 chip clock for clock.

Maybe before you start quoting the law to me you might try learning to write in English. Oh yea getting a clue might help too! Billl well sorry if the English is bad...but the law seem to be the same in all modern democratic countries...nor the bad english, nor the things people think mathers! only...

as well as the link: http://www.grid.org/projects/ you can see that the research programs have been done mostly by universities...also, grid.org is not profitable (if you can find the other proof than twisting the words around, please do! maybe you can get the financing paper to proove it...); but ...

However, that said, I do believe we can ALL achive better overclocking with a few (under $20 USD) mods, thats all I am trying to prove. [...] Regards and "flames accepted". Hehehe! Good to see you are putting on your asbestos underwear and getting ready for those flames :) I think overclocking is g...

I don't run UD for one simple reason. I'm not giving away my resouces so they can make money off of me. Billl UD or BOINC are the same thing...both are for educational perpouses only and with cooperation of the universities...so that makes your remark silly!! Before you call someone's remark silly ...

There is a version that just runs on a floppy drive. Not sure what the name is. Just do a search. A floppy would be as quiet as a USB drive. Billl floppy drive is not so quiet as the memory stck can be...practicly floppy is sometimes even noiseier than the HDD... and a memory stick is as quiet as a...

Billl,(or anyone else) Cheap is my middle name. Is there maybe a hardware firewall thats been out for a while so its not in hot demand anymore but can still be trusted as secure. Its that or use the P-III/266 that boots LINUX from a CD configured to my needs(what a chore this is becoming). Billl al...

Billl,(or anyone else) Cheap is my middle name. Is there maybe a hardware firewall thats been out for a while so its not in hot demand anymore but can still be trusted as secure. Most Routers are well under $70.00 US funds. If you don't need wireless then you can easily buy one for less then $50.00...
