Stand By Mode and other questions.

Avalanche
Hi. Last week I built my first Athlon system. I love it so far, but I have a couple questions. When I put it into Stand By Mode it seems to only stay in Stand By for around 15 minutes. Then the monitor turns back on and I'm prompted to enter my password, at which point I return to windows.

sapiens74
Just got a used laptop, with a Pentium 3 800 and 128 MB of Ram. I installed WIndows 2000 with service pack 2 and all the updated video drivers, but when I try to install any PCMCIA network card it will not let me use it, even if I force it, it has a problem with the card.

SBLive + Volume problems

weerin
Well, I am running winXP corporate ed however I have quite a large problem. The amount of volume which the system is producing, is basically none. It is so quiet that even on maximum settings, it is not even 20% as loud as it is in Win2000, and I had the settings all on 25% there.

Logitech Mouseware not working

FunnyMuffin
I use RC2 and am unable to get Mouseware to install. I does not give me an error, but it seems like Windows keeps using its own driver (date 1-7-200). I have downloaded the latest Mouseware for Win2k, with no luck.

Upgrading to SMP

FrogMaster
Good morning everybody! I am planning to move my main box from an ASUS CUV4X to an ABIT VP6. My question is : will it be possible to change kernel from mono to bi-processor through the system properties - changing driver -? I did this in the past without any prob with BP6 boards.

Need cheap CD Burner...suggestions

Brian Frank
Well my usb burner crapped out and I need a cheap replacement. When I say cheap I mean in price, not in quality. Something under $100 is my target. I don't need it to be superfast either, as I use it for mostly data, so 8x is fine.

VIA VT8233 Southbridge, any problems under win2k/XP?

thecheese
Has anyone yet experienced any of the same data corruption/Sblive/ATA100 performance issues that plagued the KT133A/686B chipset combo boards with the newer KT266/VT8233 Chipsets? I am particularly interested in hearing from users of the Asus A7V266 board.
