    MOBO Help Needed for INTEL BOARD, re: Voltage Change for CPU

    It probably set the voltage automaticly. My GVC/BCM GT6934 does that.

    My computer turn on and off after shut down.

    if it turns on & off every minute for 30 seconds. Then you have no problems. Since it can't turn on or off in 30 seconds! Could you try to tell us again what the problem is!

    Games keep minimizing

    So no patches? Did you check to see if something was trying to maximize itself or starting? Maybe an internet connection?

    ASUS CD-RW hangs. :o

    Is the CD burner on the same cable as the hard drive? If so try putting it on another cable.

    Voodoo 2 + ATi Xpert @ Play 98

    You didn't give much info. But mr being gracefull and all... :-) I think it's a bug in the ATI drivers. I heard of something (I think in the Q3 demo instrctions) about it. See if there is a updated driver for your ATI. Also do you by any chance have a set of speakers, subwoofer, modem...

    Games keep minimizing

    Have you checked for patches? You might also check to see if you have some sort of program that would be starting or refreshing every once in a while.

    The Future of PC's

    OK I just read a forum here talking about cd-rw's vs. cd-r's. It made some mention of DVD drives. What is do you think is going to replace them! I've heard of some new disks that can easily store 90Gbs to a CD sized disk! It's some amazing stuff! Will they make hard drives that...

    Celeron vs. AMD

    The AMD has really fast but inexpensive chips! An AMD Duron 800Mhz only costs $119! The most expensive AMD chip I know of is the Thunder bird 1.1Ghz @ $399 (the 1Ghz is only $300 :-) ). And yes the GeForce 2mx would blow by that Intell graphics nightmare!

    Lost my sound

    I'm guessing you Compaq might have an onboard sound card. If so you might check in the bios. Make sure it's turned on. If that's not the case. Were their any symptoms before it stoped working? Like stuttering, somtimes working when you boot up, somtimes not? That info would be helpfull...
