Just to let you guys know

Fusion
Just a little warning I went out and bought a Diamond MX400 What a joke! The card only has the option to either run speakers, or run headphones. . . . you can't have both plugged in at the same time! I honestly laughed my head off when I read that in the installation book.

TweakUI final version

ThC 129
To my surprise when I went to open up tweakUI today I says the pre-release version of this software has expired. Anyone have a link to the final version. Or something that works just as well as tweakUI.

Black screen on bootup with NVidia > 3.66

dennisj
It seems the problem is the AGP driver for the MoBo chipset. ALI said they will post a working driver soon on their HP. My MoBo is the FA-503+ from FIC with a VIA chipset, so I've written them an e-mail asking for a new AGP driver but didn't get an answer yet.

UDMA66 and a wd13 gig

DarkOne
I have a bp6 and 2 ultra dma 66 drives, a wd 13 gig and a maxtor 27. When I put the 27gig on the 66 controller everything works fine, win2k and 98 will boot. If I then put the 13 on 98 will boot but 2k will not, it gets about half way done on the loading screen and just dies.

Win2k, SuperMicro SCD, Standby Mode = NOPE!!

Reidyn
Any of you guys have SuperMicro SCD motherboards, or other variations with the same problem I'm having? We have two identical P-III systems with similar behavior, making defects unlikely. Trying to go into Standby mode gives a message The driver for <xxxx> is preventing the machine from going into standby.
