With 2gb sticks of kingmax ddr400, vista32 seemed (*) to work fine.  Added a
3rd stick of kingmax about a month later when we also upgraded an intel
d865perl mombo.
Memory was posted at 2.6gb not 3gb with 512mb agp aperture.  System reset

Just one short question: The ASUS CPU compatibility list says the M2N-E
SLI works with the 5200+ and the 6000+. Is this list simply not up to
date or does that definitely exclude the 5400+ and the 5600+? Anybody
got the 5600+ running with this board?

I have an ASUS AM2 board (SB600) and I am trying to get my system to boot
with Vista x64 under RAID 10
I have 4xRaptors and can get the system running flawlessly using Vista
(32-bit) and RAID 10.

I have a problem with the M2N32 recognizing both drives when both are
installed.
I have a Maxtore PATA istalled on the IDE primary port as a master.
I have a Seagate SATA installed on SATA1.

I've got a couple of Radeon 7000's that do what I need done -
which isn't much - except that they have one digital and one
analog output.   My last CRT monitor finally went to monitor
heaven... so they're all LCD now and 100% digital would add some

Is a motherboard/bios Battery reading of "4.08 Volts" normal, low,
high??
It does not fluctuate up or down, EVER either.
It reads this in BIOS screen and in various xp-based software.

Is it a good idea to run cool&quiet WITH Q-fan enabled?
Should I just use cool&Quiet alone?
Which gives the best temp lowering?

Hi All, Putting together a new system and am at a loss trying to
figure out My antec Sonata PSU 450 wiring. The PSU has two wires on
one  connector with color coded black and blue.the connector base has
three female slots as well.

I've got an Asus P5W-DH-Motherboard.
Is it possible to tell the PC to boot at a specific time via "Wake on RTC"  
without entering the BIOS? I am thinking about a utility for WinXP that  
should be able to let me adjust the setting for "Wake on RTC" from within  

Symptom:
    I have to wait at least a minute before pressing the "on"
button switches the PC on. Before the minute or so is up pressing the
button does nothing at all.

Hope that there is someone out there that can give me some advice. Just
finished a 2nd build of a system after RMA'ing the first board and have a
feeling that the power supply I removed from my old system may not be good
enough for the new build.

(Sorry for the x-posting, but since it could be either the
motherboard, the sound driver, or some setting in W2003...)
I've done the following on an W2003 Server Standard SP1, but I still
get no sound whatsoever:

I have the following USB devices:  wireless mouse, scanner, Canon printer
and Samsung laser printer.
If I plug the Canon printer into one of the aux USB910 (not sure which one)
USB ports the machine will not boot past the Asus logo screen.  If I remove

Other than being connected to a PC with an Asus motherboard this
subject is quite off topic but this is a group I read regularly and
posters generally actually have a clue.
I'm considering getting an UPS but I have an issue I want to make

 I've been trying to find out what I can upgrade my (now aging)
desktop to - in the interests of saving a bit of cash for my next
upgrade and being a bit greener by avoiding the power cost of creating
new boxes, memory, etc.
