CPU/mobo for NT 4.0

Bughandle
Hi, i am looking for a rockstable motherboard/cpu combo for 19 industrial case. It should be extendable to 1-2 GB RAM and ATA5 Harddisks. CPU speed needn't be top, 1. 7 - 2. 5 Ghz should be fine. RAID 1 onboard would be important.

Spare my port 1433/4, would you?

tylau
Since the SQL Slammer runs rampant on the net, I received so many request on those ports from unknown servers that I have never visited; I am in acknowledge of such because I haev blocked the captioned ports in my firewall, but request still comes in and stolen my bandwidth; seems no fix for these culprits?

Slow boot with Promise RAID TX2000

Vasco
I have a RAID controller from Promise (TX2000). When I boot the system it says scanning IDE drives. . . . . . . This takes over 20 seconds before switching to the RAID controller and boot up. Is there a way to make the boot-up-process faster? In the BIOS I chose SCSI as first boot device.

Logon prompt disappears, Win2K follows suit :(

Ron_Jeremy
I started my pc, & walked away from it. 'Bout 20 mins later, I returned to logon. Anyway, when I pressed ctrl-alt-del to logon to Win2K Pro, nothing happened. The logon prompt thingy just disappeared, & there was only the blue colour of the desktop screen (not BSOD).

ISA audio card hangs boot process

videobruce
I have a Crystal ISA audio card that I have tried in both ISA slots and it hangs the boot process. I believe I have used the card elsewhere and it worked, but I'm not sure. Do I assume it is bad? Computer boots fine without it.

Asus V7100DC: which drivers, which order?

videobruce
I'm running Win 2000 w/sp3 installed on a VIA KT133 MB. I have looked at the FAQ's which didn't help. I have read the manual which only confused the issue more. There are the V31. 40 program/driver, the WDM capture driver V1.

saving my pennys

jimf43
Ok, I can't take it any more. . . . Almost every day I find myself answering all the BS problems with with ATI Radions. . . And, then it's not much better with Nvida and Gforce which may have better 3d drivers, but, can't give you a good 2d picture.

Ripping causes DVD-ROM to crash???

Int@rim
Can anybody tell me something about the procedures that happen during Audio- and DVD-Ripping? Is Ripping likely to damage a DVD-Drive or is the loss of three of my DVD-Drives in just 11 months purely accidental? What the f*** actually does DVDx 2.

Wireless Optical Blue mouse not working

timeout
Got one of these mice last weekend and installed it without any problems. Now it won't work: the cursor won't move as a move the mouse around. The red optical bit on the bottom is on and the green light on the base station is also on.

I have an older model Logitech Digital Extreme WingMan joystick. I bought it about 4 years ago when I was running Windows 98 on a Gateway. I now have a Dell that uses USB ports to connect my hardware.
