Hey all, I purchased a 500w qtec psu, thing is it's a bit loud so I need to mod it to 7v, you can take of the fan as it just plugs in to it, so i'm guessing a capacitor along the wire to do this?, also note it is Fan speed controlled by temperature so I also need to disable that to. Pic of it here: ...

Thankyou^, it's weried when I fire up the drive as a slave and use the xp cd to create particions etc theres only one partition on the new drive that is the 127gig, why doesnt the bios see the whole 200gig?. oh and i installed s2 when it came out ive just got this drive today so had sp2 for quite so...

You need at least the service pack 1 to address more than 127GB... The first thing you have to do is to download and install the service pack 2 (service pack 1 is no more available from Microsoft). I suggest you download the complete package and burn it to a CD. This way you'll have it next time......

Hey all, Got my new segate barracuda today just installed it as master and formated it or whatever you do before you install windows xp, thing is its a 200gig drive but is showing up as 127gig how come, my mobo bios is up to date and have windows xp sp2, can anyone help?.

Getting a new 200 gig barracuda to replace my 60 gig barracuda, can I take the sea shield off the old drive and put it on the new?, is that possible or will it overheat?.

Hi all,

I've just ordered a new 200gig barracuda to replace my 60gig barracuda, I want to ghost the drive to the new drive when it comes, does this software come with the drive?, the drive is oem, or will I have to get some software to so it?.

There is a utility called TrayIt! . With it you can send any window to the system tray on the taskbar. http://www.google.com/search?q=trayit Another option is to install the F@H console as a service and monitor the progress with FahMon. FahMon is a far simpler utility than EMIII, it doesn't have al...

I would be interested in a right task bar version, the console sits below and sometimes I accidently close it, I dont want it as a service as I like checking on it, tucked away in the corner would be very helpful.

Why do a lot of people stop folding for?.

I recently purchased a SATA Seagate 7200.7 200GB for my quiet system and am very disappointed with it. When the drive is idle for about a minute, it performs an off-line scan which makes a buzzing and clicking sound that lasts for about fifteen seconds. It is extremely distracting. The sound may be...

Hey all, Currently I have a barracuda IV 60GB hard drive, this is very very quiet, the quietest drive I have ever owned, Now I need more hard drive space, so my old seagate will go into my server, what 200GB hardrive would you recomend for quietness?, I'd like to get one with 8mb buffer to, it also ...

The sig's still arnt working , any update on the subject yet?.

Thanks for the reply, yes it's very stable. just didnt want it to burn out or anything thats all. I would power up my other fan at 7v but that will just add a bit more noise and I dont want that.

Cheers.

Hey all,

Thanks for the warm welcome peteamer, happy to be here and doing a good cause.

I'm on frame 71/400 at the moment .

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome apreciated .

Fixed it, I installed the console version again, this time it put some files on the desktop and it now seems to remember where it was .

Where it says frames completed and frames remaining, well this said 20 yesterday so why did it start back at the begging today?, it's like i've lost the points . Have I wasted them?.

Heres a screenshot for better info:



Does that look ok?.
