Hello all.. Someone please help so i know that im not going completely crazy.... I just got a new M4A78T-E motherboard from Asus I went to their website http://support.asus.com/download I choose Motherboard Socket-AM3 (Be careful and DO NOT choose SISOCKET-AM3) M4A78T-E WinXP Then i go to chipset and try to download the 300 meg AMD Chipset Program Driver WHQL V5.10.1000.8 (Package Version 8.561) for Windows 32/64bit XP. If i choose Global i get 10 kilobytes/sec and it craps out around 30 meg If i choose China i get 50 Kilobytes/sec and it craps out around 180 megs Ive done this multiple times multiple days and the results are the same and i can not download the entire drivers....

Someone Please help me im about to return a perfectly good motherboard because i cant download drivers that is pretty stupid... Thanks in Advance Eddie

Hello all QUESTION Currently these networks are 100% separate but i want to share the DSL Modem between the 2 networks... INFORMATION Network # 1 DSL Modem Linksys Router <-- using the Tomato Firmware Windows 2K3 Server and 10 WinXP Pro clients Network #2 NO DSL Modem Linksys Router <-- using the Tomato Firmware Windows 2K3 Server and 10 WinXP Pro clients The only way i can join the 2 networks together is wirelessly I DO NOT care if i have to buy a 3rd Linksys Router POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS I have been researching on the best way in which to share the internet across both networks without the 2 networks being able to see each other and these are my results 1) Some recommended using different ip's 2) Some recommended using different subnets 3) Some recommended using a switch between the the DSL Modem and the Routers 4) Some recommended DSL --> Router --> 2 Different Switches and i have to "BREAK" the ports or something about vlans etc..... So what do you guys think? Thanks in Advance Eddie

Thanks for the reply guys.. and btw i have had no probs with SP3 on my laptop i think it runs great.... i hope i have the same experience with my desktop.. Eddie

Is there anyone out there that can confirm whether or not you supposed to plug in the CD key AFTER you install windows XP Pro SP3 or do you still plug in the CD key during the Winxp pro setup... Thanks in Advance Eddie

Thank you for the reply... but i did read the FAQ i just didnt mention what computer i used to do the slipstream I used a Win XP Pro SP2 computer to slipstream SP3 onto a gold Win XP Pro.... And just for the record everything works fine.. i was just under the assumption that it would ask me for my CD Key AFTER the install not BEFORE... am i assuming something incorrect or did i not do something correctly... Thanks in Advance Eddie

Hello all i slipstreamed SP3 with a gold version of XP Pro using nlite 1.4.5 FINAL and everything works fine.... my only question is i thought a new feature of SP3 was that it would ask you for the CD key after you finish installing XP not during installation.... http://download.microsoft.com/download/6/8...%20Pack%203.pdf Is there something that i didn't do correctly? Thanks in Advance Eddie

First, i would like to thank all of you for replying to my question. Second, I agree that all of you are correct What i didnt mention is that i do backup the things of utmost importance like documents, music, picutures, etc... BUT The thing is that i have over 40 full length 8 GIG DVD movies that i bought and i like to copy them to my Home Theater PC along with all the video that is recorded onto it from the TV. It would be way to costly (Double) to be keeping backups of all of this on another HD so i would just like to know if there was a program that could kinda like tell me if something is going wrong and maybe fix it... and yes i am aware of S.M.A.R.T but i am just looking around for other possible alternatives. Thanks in Advance Eddie

Hello all, I am currently starting to amass a bunch of important data on my hard drive and was thinking if there was a proactive way in which i can maintain the integrity of my data. I was searching around and found a program which claims to do such a thing and more such as retrieve data and fix (certain types) of broken hard drives http://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm I watched some of the videos and read some of the reviews and i must say i am very impressed with it I was going to purchase it but i thought it best to ask if 1) Anyone has ever heard of the program and/or 2) Does anyone have any recommendations on a similar program Thanks in Advance Eddie
