Could BIOS setting cause BSOD? by rll
Ever since I had Best Buy do some upgrading of my Vista Ultimate computer, it has crashed almost daily, sometimes twice a day. The crashes occur regardless of whether the computer is in use or not. The result is a blue screen with the message Power State Driver Failure. That is the only part of the text I am able to read before the computer shuts down and restarts. One of the things Best Buy...

CP2101 USB to UART Controller Driver by Rhomium
Anyone know where to get a CP2101 USB to UART Controller driver for Vista? I went to Si Labs and used the one for Windows Server 2003 and that moved it to a different location in Device Manager and changed the name to CP2101 USB Controller and says it can't start the device (Code 10). Thanks, Pfaff

CPU and Ram allocations by Miles Emerson
I have recently built a system using the ABIT Fatal1ty F-I90HD motherboard with an Intel LGA 775 2.4 GHz, 1066FSB processor. My system keeps rebooting randomly or freezing. What I have noticed is that my RAM is not utilized above 50% (I have 2GB) while my processor is running at 80 to 95% capacity right before a reboot. Question: is it possible to set the system (via Vista) to use more RAM...

CPU busy by PhilTheGap[_2_]
Hi, my CPU is 100% used by hardware interrupts just after the set up of Vista. The drivers are all running. Vista has been updated. What is the simple way to discover the culprit ? I can start by unplug everything but what can I do if to see if the processor (AMD 64 3800+) is responsible ? Best regards

CPU cooler/temps? by 03hdfatboy[_10_]
What CPU cooler are you using and what are your temps? I'm using a Vigor gaming 92mm Monsoon II and I've been happy with it for over a year but here lately my temps have been above "my" normal. :confused: I've checked my fan speed and all that, so I'm kinda wondering if it might be going bad. I know how that sounds but mine is a Thermal Electric so it's not just a heatsink and fan combo. Idle...

CPU Fan problem by machinest
Hey guys, ive just installed a new heatsink and CPU fan to replace the standard one on an Intel Q9400. The CPU fan works fine I can see it spin and adjust the fan speed from a panel that comes with it but for some reason when I boot up my computer it tells me CPU fan error and press F1 to continue. I assume because the fan is still working this is not a problem but should I be worried?

CPU Fans and heatsinks by Red Dog
I have heard that the stock fan and heatsink that come with Intel cpu's is not a very good setup. Can someone recommend a good setup for a Core2Quad Q6600 to go on a Asus P5E3 Deluxe motherboard? I would like something close to the original setup, but of better quality.

CPU heatsink fan by RickyBobby[_2_]
I like to build computers as a hobby and have been doing it for some years now. I have some family and I have generally handed down my year old computers to them so that I would have a reason to build me a new one. When I am done building one I look at the hardware monitor stuff in the BIOS and like the CPU temp to be below 120 F. Not that I think that it matters all that much but 120 is...

CPU size by Carl G
Hi Guys and gals Got a question for ya. I build my own computers but I am not a computer builder. Always use Intel CPU. Question = If I have a Intel P4 3.2 Ghz CPU , what size in an AMD would I need to be the same in size or performance. I am trying to figure out how fast a AMD semperon 3400 is in comparison to an Intel CPU. Hope I asked that right.
