Too funny, I have a G3 power book that I run Linux on when I'm not using widows on the Asus. Bottom line is if your company uses windows, then you will do well with a compatible machine running the same software/OS. On the other hand, if given a choice, open source is the way to go if you don't what...

On the right hand button problem, you did not load the Power 4 gear program off the ASUS driver CD. Also, Why did you go with the 770 CPU? My 1.6@ 400 CPU is over clocked (dip switch) to 2.13 @ 533 for a lot less money than you spent on the 730 chip to achieve the same results. Really the big sellin...

You click yes, and now you will load the ...

Do you have a source for the 82.10 driver and mod inf file.

I am trying to run Half life 2, and the 82.10 is crashing at game load.

Not really ready to back step to 67.03 to allow me to play just the single game when everything else will play on the 82's.

Z71v, latest forceware driver and stable speed?

Instead of having to dance around the goggle search engine again, simple question for you guys. What is the latest info file moded Forceware driver for the machine, where do I find the driver and the mod'd info file, and what has someone pushed a stock heat thermal padded machine to, and stayed stab...
