Hello?!?!?!?!??!

wow people, any suggestions at all?

Doesn't anybody care?

well its drastic, but if the problem is really what you suspect it is, and there is an actual problem with the HD hardware, then there really is not much to do other than either sending it to a data recovery center, or fixing it yourself, the best thing I can throw out there with my current...

I have roughly 200-250 $ to spend on storage for my computer, what would be the best combination; one good SSD or 2 or more hard drives, I do not plan to use a dedicated RAID card.

ok, no dice on disabling the onboard sound, all settings on the MOBO are nominal, any other suggestions? is it possible that my GPU is affecting sound card? because i was listening to the error beeps and one of the codes supposedly means that there is a problem with the GPU, keep in mind though...

I would get this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150316 none of those games are too bad, except maybe if you are running FSX, which can eat up resources in a hurry. Anyway, the 9800 is not unbearably more expensive, but would give you far superior performance, any...

no, no it will still POST without the card in it, ill try that suggestion, thanks for going to the trouble to look that up for me =)

again, please read my first post, I own an xw8000, the computer will not even get to the bios if the card is in, however the leds on my keyboard will still light up... I will try to disable onboard sound though, in the meantime... any more suggestions people?

did you read my last post? I told you that it worked in my other computer, I have already RMA'd once. anyone here know anything about hp workstations?

2 gtx 295s, no doubt, the gtx 285 core would have to be more than 30% faster than the cores in the GTX 295, also the two GTX 295s would equal a greater total frame buffer amount. the gtx 285s would run out of frame buffer first if the resolution and AA was pushed too hard. btw, the link you...

you could just plug each cable into a splitter, thats what i am doing with my quad speaker setup

perhaps it is just incompatable with my chipset?

it works in another comp, POST is POWER ON SELF TEST very low level, it's when the BIOS initializes all the hardware, it occurs before the operating system boots

I got a new sound card recently, an x-fi xtreme gamer. When replacing my current card in my system (sound blaster live-24 bit) with the new card, the computer will fail to POST, i have tried all PCI slots, I am using an hp xw8000 workstation with: 2 gig ram 2 3 Ghz processors 320 gig HD 880...

i suppose your probobly right, but its the convenience you pay for, as well as the labor. I did some more research on high end systems and 5k-6k for a top of the line system seems pretty good, considering that i found one from digital storm that was like 8K =0, of course it could have been...

so i was doing some research on the new GTX 295 and decided to check the ebay listings, i ended up pretty depressed b/c they were still going for 500 bucks even on ebay...oh well:(:( any way but i found this...

yes, both up and running, lol

yes both should be setup as far as i know, i have tried to have the settings be as close to those of the desktops as possible

the cheap SSD are really bad at performance, and the high performance ones require you to donate a kidney. just google it for tons of information. two velocirapters in raid 0 are faster than any ssd. And two 15k drives in raid 0 would make your SSD look like a floppy, of course this isnt...
