Please Help - Gigabyte 815 MoBo and Win2000 problem

Chaz
A friend of mine has the Gigabyte 815. I think it is the GA-6OXM7E(-1) model. Whenever we have tried to install Win 2000 Pro all is fine. As soon as it starts multi tasking or straining a little, the mouse stop responding, then basically responds in the reverse direction.

RAID Vs Stand alone HD's?

BladeRunner
Question for y'all. RAID seems to be popping up everywhere in workstation PC's. It seems to be there for the performance gain rather than for data integrity. So, lets say you have 2x IBM ATA100, 7200rpm HD's.

looking for 10/100 Hub

INFERNO2000
Not Win2k specific, but I'm looking for a hub (8 ports) that has both the RJ45 connectors + the power plug on the same side. . . not worried about LEDs or switches. . . just something I can mount in my case(hence the need for the power plug and ports to be on the same side).

Cable Modems, Network & Win2K

DeadCats
Cable company just called, cable modems are being installed. We have Wednesday afternoon next week. I explained to the guy what we want, and he tells me it would end up a lot cheaper if we supplied some of the parts instead renting them from RoadRunner.
