May be a stretch for your Motherboard but most of the higher end Asus and Abit boards will give you an option in the BIOS to select CDROM drive...
You can probably copy the Media Center portion of that DVD to your hard drive in an ISO format and then burn a bootable CD from the ISO. ;)
Most MoBo's with on-board sound have provisions for changing the function of various audio ports (plug holes) depending upon your intended use...
Matt - you're in trouble if these are available in different colors too. :rolleyes:
Outside shot but your not going to like it if this is the problem. Remove the case cover and then the front panel (push tabs on either side...
Thank you. I appreciate your follow-up. Willing to bet you'd encounter the same SIMS2 problem with your new processor if it were improperly set at...
Me too and I'd still profess that this is not a 1100 MHz processor. Noted with interest this weekend that three new builds all showed 11x100 in...
r.leale - This is pretty common and its one of the reasons 2500+ Bartons are so popular. In some (most) cases, one will have to bump the core...

Nothing against externals but you may also want to investigate removable drive bays which will permit you to slide drives in & out whenever it...
Back home after 3 weeks. Now to Idle Mind's dilemma - it was my assumption that this was a Palamino based upon original memory and age of machine....
Reset Boot order in Bios when you put those IDE's in so that it boots from your new machine's system drive, not the questionable IDE drives you...
Mattman to the rescue - thanks. Always seen steppings as 5 letters on die but glad to learn of something new and different. And, if Idlemind has...
Unfortunately, I sure can't figure anything out from that - stepping should be a 5 letter code and model should be something other than one...
OK, I thought you were trying to access them from old machine with a new PSU. Do you have an operating system installed that is running...
Sounds like Murphy's Law has arrived at Space Station #5. For starters, can you see the drives in your BIOS and if not, have you tried to...
