Bump for you

You can't unlock any intel chips. Unless you mean raise the FSB. I'm willing to bet it's a 533FSB, and a 20x multi, like my old Northwood. I use a program called CPUFSB, it's really handy! :D

Very interesting!

I was thinking about getting a copy of my BIOS, and opening it up, editing, saving, and flashing. There's gotta be a program or something. Who knows. If the community and I can figure out how to do it, we'll keep ya updated! :)

Well basically I want to make MY desktop more personal. I want to change the Manufacturer, and Model, to something. Haven't decided yet. Anyhoo, I think it's BIOS related, because I used Tune Up Utilities to change it, and Windows recognizes it (Right click My Computer, Properties) I know...

You won't need antivirus software for Linux. There are pretty much no viruses for it, and actually getting one is rare. My download box has Ubuntu, and I don't use a A/V.. No problems yet :)

It'll run Linux. I had linux work on a Pentium 2 350MHz, and 256MB RAM. (Ubuntu)

I never thought of that one. :toast:

:X I think I am gonna tell him to get an anti virus software! :toast: 'aye, thanks! Panchoman, I don't really like ShowMyPC... personal thing... connecting is helpful when he can't figure out how to do something (extract a zipped folder, extract files into Windows directory, etc...)

Could be the hard drive. When did you buy it? Maybe you could try to RMA it. Good luck man!

Well I use TeamViewer to have my PC connected to, and when I connect to other people's PC. Basically, I was wondering if I could get viruses from this? I have strange feelings connecting to my friends comp, and I don't know if I should continue doing so... Thanks

Haha, so true! It would be nice if I could get one in my laptop (too bad it's IDE though).. Could you imagine how much better battery life would be? And how much better it would perform!?

And there is no price yet? :(

Mad props to MSI! This idea is freaking awesome!

I'd get a laptop, they're much more convenient, and the energy bill doesn't get as affected :p
