1: I was on about compared to others. 4+ hours would be what I'm looking for. And laptops tend to match netbooks or beat them due to having...
Right, soon I will be looking to (someone save me) buy a laptop ready for the last year of school and for Uni. I am looking to spend around...
Nope, that driver doesn't work. I've temporarily chucked in a Yahama sound card, but it isn't low-profile so it's not an ideal solution.
I looked for the ICH5 rather than the AC97, but let's see if that'll work.
As above, does anyone know of a good link to Win98 drivers for the Intel ICH5 AC97 audio controller?
OCZ also make very good PSUs - I have one in my machine and it's rock solid.
I've sliced my thumb open on a drive bay blanking plate...
That was on my old CIT 450W PSU as well, which is really odd. :D
As long as you don't attempt to massively stress your system, a temporary 300W PSU should run that Scaleo P without too many issues.
Are there any other SATA PSUs of 300W or so that you can borrow?
Yes, a dud PSU can easily cause freezing, and Windows issues - my Inspiron's Bestec unit caused several.
Still have no idea if that sound card works - it doesn't appear to have Win2K drivers (or at least, not proper ones). My new ASUS card is in and...
The computer now runs fine - the new motherboard is perfect and it was indeed a motherboard fault, as the CPU is now happily working in my other...
How about this for a 5V voltage?
Just an update - I've ordered a replacement motherboard for the machine. Having disassembled the previous power supply and attempted to rotate the...
I'll report back if I can get the Soundblaster to work in another one of my machines.
I've given up on the sound card and have ordered an Asus Xonar as a replacement. I didn't try it in another PCI port, but oh well.
Soly Tech do appear to be a very low quality PSU brand from my quick research (says he with an equally low-end PSU brand in action), so there may...
Not at present, I will swap it into the other PCI slot on the board.
All the chipset drivers are installed.
