This is a significant update to my December 27 posting, adding new information and summarizing results. Here's the email I sent to Antec Support at the request of Antec in The Netherlands after my 2nd Antec Neo HE 430 failed to power my system: System : P150 case with the standard Antec Neo HE 430 P...

I forgot to mention that the manual is clear about this. See item 4 on page 5 under "Connecting the front I/O"

I can't find a speaker and a speaker cable in my Antec P150. Can someone please confirm that there should be a speaker and where it normally can be found? Is it possible the cable is hidden somewhere?

System: P150 case with the standard Antec Neo HE 430 PSU, ASUS-VM-CSM board, AMD X2 3800, 2*1Gb Kingston memory, 3*Samsung SP2004C drives. Other than a DVD writer there are no additional components such as graphics boards, etc. Behavior: the system will not start up with more than one disk drive con...

Thanks Jaganath, you pointed me in the right direction. There's definitely a problem with the PSU [Antec NEO 430HE]. I've called Antec in Rotterdam and they're going to send me an updated version. I'll let everyone know what the outcome is in the PSU forum.

I have the same requirement and are planning to order a BenQ DW1640 which gets top reviews and is supposed to be very quiet during DVD playback. I'm looking to build a Windows Media Centre box for the front room, mainly because it excites me as a big nerd :) I'll be looking to put together a powerfu...

Thanks stromgald & sgent. The rationale for my disk config is to use 2 disks in a RAID 1 array for security and use the 3rd disk as additional unsecure storage. I don't think my videocapture needs warrant a RAID 0 config. I've done video capture a few times, and IMO I don't think RAID is really nece...

I'm about to order parts for my 1st ever home grown PC and I'd appreciate any insights you can provide. This is intended to be a general purpose PC which ALSO should be suitable for: - analog & digital video capture - PVR The system is NOT intended for gaming. Using knowledge from this forum and the...
