I want to get bitlocker working using TPM but don't know how to work out if my motherboard has it.
The mobo is an Asus Rampage 2 gene. I can't see anything about it in bios, or on their website.
Do all mobo's have this nowdays? Or is it only laptop motherboards?
Ps I can't check at this point using win7 itself because I've only got win7 professional installed and have to go change it to ultimate or enterprise so it has bitlocker (I think). I can't see it listed under devices/security, altho I don't know if this is because of the version of win7 or because the mobo doesn't have TPM.
In the past 2 days I have been unable to get my onboard audio working. I tried reinstalling windows on another drive and still no success. It shows all of the ports as disconnected except for the Digital Audio out.I tried updating the BIOS to the new .CAP format but with no success. Not sure what test to make to see if the sound chip went bad. Ideas?
I have an Intel Pentium Windows 7 laptop (see my full system information in the link below), I can get a new graphics chip for it!! I need it to play Sims 3 and I have spent so much time and money on it! A guy told me I need a new graphics chip: "the processor is 2.0GHz when the game requires 2.6GHz on a computer running an integrated graphics chip" I have updated my driver now to 2012, that's the only improvement since his comment....
My one RAM chip just stop functioning (some RAM parity error?). Now i have only 1 GB RAM(ddr2 pc2 6400/5300) in one slot and another slot is empty. I wanted to know if i could install another RAM chip in this slot (of probably higher MHz frequency or of ddr3 type) while maintaining compatibility with the existing one.
I just wanted to post up my results for OCing the new Athlon II X4 620 chip. I purchased it last week from NewEgg.com and received my cooler a couple of days ago. I took some time today to play with it a bit to see what I could squeeze out of it ...
Athlon II X4 620
Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 7 Rev. 2 cooler
Bus : 270MHz
Multiplier : x13
HT/NB Multiplier : x8 (default is 10)
HT/NB MHz : 2160MHz
Memory : 900MHz (x3.33)
CPU : 3.510MHz
CoreV : 1.45v
Overall I am very happy given I only took about an hour to tweak things in the BIOS. The stock speed is 2.6GHz, and I plan to get it to 3.6GHz when I have more time on Sunday.
I wanna play Chip's Challenge. I tried running it on Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit but here's what it says "The version of this file is not compatible with the Windows your running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need a x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of this program, then contact the software publisher.
I'm looking to get a new motherboard so I can SLI some graphics cards but I was wondering.I bought a copy of Windows 7 OEM. I have a ASUS P8H77-V LGA. I am looking to get this motherboard to replace it.I still have the disc for the Windows. My question is if I change the motherboards will I have to do another install? and if I do no biggy but would I not be able to install it with it being a OEM copy? Or could I and not register it? or how does all that work?
After upgrading my mothers pc from vista to windows 7 I have ended 8up with a very sluggish machine, the CPU graph is touching 100% all the time. I had to slow the RAM down to 667 to get 2gb extra to work.
The problem I'm having loading them is the video card. The only resolution is 640x480. I've tried to see if windows update would find the driver but it doesn't. So dose anyone know if a xp driver would work or anything else. It would really save are school lots of money if I can find out how to fix this problem.
I just put together an i7 rig today with the Asus P6T motherboard. I'm having a problem with it detecting any of my PCI cards though. I installed the latest drivers for Windows 7 from the Asus site. It claims the driver installed and reboots, but then it doesn't start auto-detecting my PCI cards. Therefore I can't install my sound card or wireless card.
I am trying to install Windows 7 on my pc (fresh install) I have the Asus P5N-D Mobo. When Windows 7 gets to the screen to select the drive to install it on, it's blank. I have tried the P5N-D driver disk. Have tried Vista and XP driver's but nothing seems to work. Is there any other reason why Windows 7 can't see my 250 gb hard drive? System specs below:
Just upgraded to windows 7. The only problem is that Windows blocks the drivers needed for my TV Tuner. A (ASUS PVR-416, Hauppauge Conexant 2388x (BlackBird))
I rolled back the drivers and they sort of work . They are not blokced but the picture is normal for about 30 seconds before going blocky and pixelated.
I believe this to be a driver issue, but can not find the right drivers anywhere, This Tv tuner came out my old HP computer. I have been to the HP web site and have used their drivers. They are all the drivers i have. The ones the get blocked or give me a bad picture.
I have contacted Hauppauge and ASUS and no reply yet from either.
Any Help would be great. I am a college student so I use my computer as my tv and do not have the funds to purchase a new tv tuner card.
I have an Asus K8N-VM motherboard with AMD Sempron 300+. Win7 will not recognize the sound card, and I cannot install the drivers that I use with WinXP.
So I am using the Asus M2A-Vm motherboard. Now, the board says it is ready for Vista and since people are saying that Windows 7 is pretty much backwards compatible, I thought I'd give it a try. I went from XP to Windows 7. The installation went fine, other than the long boot time(I'm assuming it's from BIOS or drivers).
Here's my problem. When I try to install the drivers the setup will start like normal but then say "Your OS is not supported".Bummer. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with this board or know of a fix. I'm going to try to update the BIOS and see if that will fix anything since it hasen't been updated since '07.
edit: Because of this issue I've also not been able to install drivers for my GPU which is a nVidia 8600GT.
So, I have recently installed Windows 7 and am having problems not connecting to the wireless Internet in the house that I was able to connect to before. I have looked around for answers and haven't really got any real answers.
Thought I'd share a little bit of info I picked up while settings up Seven on my new rig.
Found that the driver CD that comes with the motherboard doesn't work off the bat. Auto-play doesn't like Seven for whatever reason, so what I ended up doing was browsing the CD and running the setup executable in compatibility mode for Vista, worked like a charm. Called ASUS to find out if they had any beta Seven drivers and turns out they more than likely will not be releasing anything until after Seven goes RTM. The only issue I still have is a list of System Interrupt Controllers as unknown devices in device manager. Aside from that, everything works great so far!
