ok i bought a new 2800+ processor last night to go into my new systen i am building, the old system was abit an7 motherboard amd duron 1600mhz ati radeon 9800xt and the fan is a volcano something or other which kept the duron at a steady 35 degrees. so anyway i swapped out the 1600 duron and put in the 2800+ using the same cooling device which is rated upto a 3200+ and straight away the temperature warning buzzer came on so i cut the power, checked everything again yep all correct, i have some of that spray that cools stuff to minus 50 degrees to detect cooling problems so i sprayed some of that in and i could get the system to boot, i looked into the bios on voltage monitoring and the processor is getting 2v throught it and was running at 11 degrees. so i reset all the cmos to default and tried again but no luck still the same problem, thinkinkg it could be a faulty power supply i swapped out the old one for a spare one which is brand new out of my other system and still the problem. so guys what do you think it is the board or the processor, i have not tested the 1600 duron back in the board but i will and let you guys know. please help

ok i have had this server laying around for a while, i have just upgraded it and am now looking for the best OS and software to use on it. Dell Precision 410 Workstation Dual intel Pentium 3 700Mhz 256mb SDRAM (Planned upgrade to 512 or more) 2 30GB HD's (Planned Raid 1) basically i have the server i am looking for a file server which will also authenticate users onto my network of xp professional and 2000 professional machines. so i only have to update one user database. the more advanced features of active directory dont really apeal to me, i wanted to use NT4 server but it is being no long supported so am considering linux and i am asking if it can do what i want with little modification, also remote administration is a big requirement since i plan to hide the server away.

just burn to a dvd, chances are if the computer doesnt have a dvd rom drive atleast it wont run the software your trying to install, also you could use a network install.

the best firewall is a physical device if you doubt this you obviously need to readup on it.

i will try and get some pics up later

no but i intend to use it in the future when the documentation has been made clearer.

because the stock speed doesnt mean much to me, weird you say but if i can overclock the 2800+ to 2.4ghz stable yet i could overclock a mobile 2600+ to 2.7ghz then what is the point in stock speed to me it is just a sticker on the box similar to the overclocking voids warrenty one. whatever chip i get will be overclocked to the maximum.

i am currently undecided between a 2600+ Mobile Chip and a 2800+ Desktop chip which would overclock better?

looks great mate maybe you could release your final exe for others to use?

media centre and tablet edition are based on xp pro so expect the same files, if you dont know what your playing with should you really be playing with it?

under nt4 there was a utility called delguest which actually deleted the guest account, it didnt work under win2k thou however i have successfully used it under winxp by using compatability mode for nt4. search for delguest am sure you will find some more info on it.

yeah i copied the microsoft link as soon as it was released for you guys
