For some reason.....you ****ed around with it, broke something you mean!

Obviously you can use another plug on the MB if it has one, but as it's not the CPU fan it will mean certain things might not work or bail you out as they used to.

...but anyway, you know more about computers than me and more about overclocking than most so what do I know, you work it out.

ok, ill try work it out

Quote from ajp71 :

I thought you only had a crappy E2140 @ 3ghz that obviously needed upgrading?

...and I thought you were selling the computer to 'fund' your next little toy.

E2140...i've put it back to 2Ghz, i don't support overclocking poor little Dual core chips...wait till i get my QX6850 for christmas....and some immense watercooling for my BIrthday in May, then i'll come back to overclocking. BUt wait till some new games come out next year, then i'll talk about a new graphics card.

i've heard Windows XP only recognizes like....2Gb or something ofRAM

my dad's a pharmacist...so when i get a small cut, he seals it back together with superglue, and eventually the glue wears off...and my skins back to normal...but i'm not sure about a bloody humungeous cut in your chin

basically...the RAM should be at a 1:1 Ratio with the FSB...as your RAM is DDR2...example

380FSB should be at 760 Mhz on the RAM

But i'm not sure, what sticks do you have as your 3 Gb of RAM...3 1Gbs?

I'm not really sure how that works.

By the way, what cooler you using for your CPU

For some reason, since yesterday i've been getting a CPU Fan Error when i start up...from the BIOS i would think, before it boots into Windows. Then it says press F1 to continue. The CPU Fan IS plugged into the right bit...where it says CPU Fan on the motherboard...although yesterday i was just tidying up my PC...and when i plugged the cable into the CPU FAN bit...only 3 of the cable went into the 4 pins on the motherboard (i think its 4)...then a bit of smoke started coming from the little bits of metal near the CPU FAN pins...so i quickly took it off...and carefully put it in again. But everythings fine now...did a quick check on everything...so any ideas about this CPU FAN error, also on speedfan....it shows the Fan spinning at 0 RPM...when its normally around 3000...

So i think i've broken the pins on the motherboard or something, even though everythings spinning. Can't i just plug it into one of the other Fan connectors on the motherboard?

Thanks
Harjun

I know the feeling

your PC is very similart to mine...i don't see the need of upgrading it...do you? It runs vista stupidly smooth, unlike my laptop, never jams, runs all games, you cant really complain.

Quote from Stang70Fastback :

Harjun, you have just committed suicide. You do realize you are about to be flamed the hell out of by everyone right?

Quote from Jakg :

'kin ell!

I've only ever ordered two things "on the spur of the moment", one was an 8800GTS 640 for £131 (mis-price on Amazon when they came out), and the second was a 7950GX2 for £91 a few weeks ago.

If only i hadn't just got a new GFX card (8800GTX. WOO! If only i had a working PC to use it in...) i'd buy it, GX2's were plagued with problems, and the 7900 version was quite rare (the 7950GX2 was much more common). DAMNIT!

Jakg...no offence or anything... but your CPU is really bad...at load temps it does 63 Celcius...with watercooling...and yet only 16 seconds in Super pi...Not to boast or anything, but my £50 CPU is at 3Ghz aswell, on a stock cooler with the same load temps as yours, and does 17 seconds in super pi.... i think for £100, you could have got a LOT LOT better cpu

No offence or anything...

I'm getting along very well with my Project

Quote from pb32000 :

Only ever ordered 1 thing from OcUK that was in stock, ordered around 2pm, arrived next day (I always use City Link over Royal Mail given the choice).

Usually use ebuyer though. The best deal was when I ordered the bits for my PC using Google Checkout - £10 off each item

yeh right... ARE YOU JOKING?!?!?!?!?1 So i could have taken around...£100 of my whole PC..?

Quote from dadge :

harjun, fair play to you for giving someone a license, but you can't throw it in the guys face when ever he has an opinion. you give the thing away, it's not yours any more. get over that and move on.

lol...technically it is mine...because it has my credit card stuff on it etc. etc....i could just say it was stolen or something and proove it to them...it was just a joke anyway.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

Sorry...

Harjuns Mum.

Minor typo, the keys are like right beside each other!

my mum DIDNT! OK!!!!

Quote from Stang70Fastback :

He meant payed for by HARJUN...

...who was paid by HARJUN's DAD.

NO MY DAD DIDN@T PAY FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote from garph :

p.s. If I see you posting within a week or 2 of having a DFP saying it's rubbish because you're slower with it I'm going to hurt you.

Quote from mcintyrej :

The new Frex wheel coming out has FFB much faster than the G25, 1080 degrees of rotation and far superior build quality. When you get your DFP the first thing that you will notice is the noise, the Frex wheel is practically silent.

yes, also, is there anyway to stop the noise? I'm also going to be using my other pedals from my old wheel as a clutch

Quote from ajp71 :

That's why I don't do essay subjects, or coursework (except DT) and
no long answers



Don't you mean payed for by HARJUN's DAD?

as a matter of fact no i don't mean payed for by HARJUN's DAD

Quote from Jakg :

Build Quality, feel etc.

but comeon...an other £1000 for a bit of leather or something on it? i am not fussed literally driving with a curved piece of wood which gives you splinters...as long as it has some really really fast FFB...

Also, the DFP force feedback seems quite slow on the videos...My DFP is coming on THursday, when the eCheque clears, and then i'll see for real, my £15 Logitech Vibration, against the £70 DFP...

thats a good idea

But whats good about a wheel if it doesn't have force feedback?

Quote from mcintyrej :

You gave him a license? *confused*.

i gave him a brand new account called Irish Man...which is mine, payed for £24, by ME...

Quote from dropin_biking :

Uh...okay...but why?
~Bryan~

because i don't like your attitude...

It was just a joke, i was annoyed that i give you a licence, and you tell me to take my sig away.

Quote from DieKolkrabe :

Yet Harjun...Yet

Need to re-edit it :P

Agh! I got the 'you need to wait 60 seconds between posts. Dustin!

CR/DK

Nice to see people got annoyed at me for having that sig...and they seem happy for you to have it.

Quote from Stang70Fastback :

Yea, AM2 is what most run if they have an AMD processor... I'd focus on those at the moment.

ok...i just looked at OCUK..and they have a great site..everything in alphabetical order, etc. very good indeed, ill use that for now...

do the AMD cpus have two types of sockets..AM2 and 939?
