way to go Paul.

both of your rigs up, RAMMIE back with us for a bit, and my i7 back at full force. Oh boy, I can't wait till this time tomorrow to see our scores

I gotta tell ya, both of these boards are sweet. First EVGA board I've owned since the 680i days, and I think DFI is back strong. Both rigs are going to make for awesome crunchers.

Good to hear Paul, really glad man :toast:

Keep us posted on how they perform, I'll keep an eye on your numbers myself

Just use VNC to connect to it. I use to use KVM but i've moved on to Ultra VNC to monitor/connect via remote desktop. Give it a try, it's easy to use and connect to by ip or host name.

It's hard to teach this dog new tricks. How about a link to your recommended VNC.

I never had any luck getting a usb mouse and a ps2 mouse ports to work on a kvm, When I accidentally bought a mb that needed a ps2 mouse....I just bought another mouse.....keyboard and video worked OK.

In my Google searches I noticed some warnings about adapters and KVMs. I don't have room for another keyboard but maybe just a USB mouse and the KVM keyboard might work temporarily.

I was only going to use this motherboard until my next paycheck or maybe the one after that. I haven't been able to make up my mind on which motherboard to choose but I still have some time.

I haz BSOD last night... was late for work and didn't have time to restart it... sooooo points for me are down for the day... ;-( Sorry guys.

Chicken Patty · Oct 28, 2009

I found two rigs not crunching when I got home. C2D and i7. C2d no surprise, I didn't disable for the windows update to restart automatically. The i7, well same issue it's been having.

vaiopup · Oct 28, 2009

I do all updates manually and never let MS interfere----my rigs MY schedule!!!

I think my 920 is on its way out.... I got the box and invoice for it, will be calling AMD soon about it... maybe they will give me a 925 instead of a 920 in return... (925 = AM3 version of the 920)

Set Windows to auto-login even if there is a password
Start-->Run-->"control userpasswords2" (no quotes)
I have done this on all of my rigs so that way when they reboot at 1AM for WindowsUpdates I don't loose crunching time

Make sure boinc is set to always run

p_o_s_pc · Oct 28, 2009

CP what problems have you been having with the i7?

RAMMIE · Oct 29, 2009

Chicken Patty said:

If you install Boinc as a service it runs at windows boot.Can sit at log tn screen forever and crunch.

It's called protective mode in 6. versions.

even since I put the megashadow I have BSOD's and just lock ups and all sorts of crazy stuff. Stock cooler it doesn't happen.

CP have you tried sitting it on the cardboard box and testing it that way?

Chicken Patty · Oct 29, 2009

im doing that right now, going to run linx and see.

although sometimes a clock is stable, sometimes it ain't. So I don't know. seems like something else is causing the bsod, not the clock speed. Sometimes it happens at default too.

[Ion] · Oct 29, 2009

I assume your memory is stable? (Memtest)
It may be a problem with the motherboard

(It's starting to sound more and more like it to me)
