So you think I can just change it in BIOS to RAID from IDE..

well since the drive is in IDE mode - because the BIOS only has IDE and RAID no AHCI am I safe to assume it doesnt have TRIM support.

No TRIM or anything like that is working currently.. I don't think anyway

I still use artic silver.

So far not a problem but I have some concerns. I recently upgraded a OS drive in my old gaming rig and gave it to my wife. Now I have realized that the mother board I have MSI P6N SLI Platinum LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard – does not support AHCI. I am worried about performanc...

If I could only find a job playing BF3...

odd I see the OWS as a silly movement with no real "win" available. It doesn’t deserve coverage but seeing as the media is in bed with democrats it covers it like crazy like its as big as the free rights moment.

yeah with $7 and free shipping its cheaper for that then the shipping to RMA the board

In that tweak me program I can't get the check boxes to stay checked. Everytime I go back in they are not checked.

AHCI I could tell right away the system is even faster once that was enabled.

The federal reserve I think is at the root of the problem. Inflation is the key problem not the "1%" ... Government backed student loans is causing collage cost to grow out of control. When everyone can get student loans schools can just keep jacking up price.

yeah, I do need to get AHCI enabled. thanks again...

Turns out it is the onboard NIC, I was able to play all weekend with no problems with the USB ethernet adaptor.

I use logmein, but I still need to set it up on this PC. ok one of the drivers you linked Intel RST drivers gave me an errro meggage that the PC doesnt meet the minimum requirements for teh software. ok all the other drivers are installed - here goes nothing. **single player is fine.. I was hope ful...

yeah I been noticing those auto links- i figured it was from the forums to generate some ad money or something.

thanks major - i'll give all that jazz a try - I did update the bios to the newest but thats about it as far as whats on your list. dang wish I set up remote access. this is killing me waitng. So this is going to sound dumb but I dont see any installer in the realtec driver package. I just need to u...

I just built the rig last weekend and go the drivers off MSI site. - Something that was odd was that Windows 7 didnt have a generic driver that worked for the nic.

I will try single player mode and see if I get the same problems.

when I get home from work today I will see if skyrim does the same thing but I need to install it first. I am also going to scrub the drivers and start from scratch on those. second I'll try my 5770 card and see if the same thing happens.. any chance it could be the OCZ SSD drive? not sure how but s...

that video is with the original BIOS - I get the same thing regaurdless of what BIOS is selected.

here is a viedo of whats happening - FRAPS looks to stay at 60FPS so I dont know what is causing this stuttering - I even set the graphics to medium as you can tell by the video. I took this video about 5 minutes after a cold boot. here is my new rig Intel Core i5-2500 MSI P67A-C43 (B3) LGA 1155 Int...

I dont want to hi-jack your thread but basically when I try to install the drivers they say compatible device not found aborting install. or something like that. good to know about the hard drive power - if I run into any issues. I have a SSD, 1TB drive and dvd drive on the same SATA power. so far n...

well I can say you cable management is fantastic – I just built a new rig last weekend with many of the same parts as you and it’s a damn rats nest.. the 6 fans I have don’t have the nice mesh so it looks horrible. I am having problems getting the sound card working at all. NZXT Tempest Mid Tower Ga...
