Recommended Use For Asus GPU NOS?
Aug 30, 2012
I have a M4A785-M asus Motherboard, a few months ago I sadly had to get rid of my Graphics card due to some IRL reasons, and I am left with the stock internal motherboard graphics, which aren't that bad for integrated. ATI Radeon HD 4200 256MB integrated graphics.Well, as you can tell by the crappy internal card, it is hard for me to play games, Minecraft, TF2, GTA Series (including 4) COD Portal 1 & 2 etc.So after a while I just accepted it, and became addicted to Minecraft.But recently I came across some BIOS issues, the in otherboard drivers crashed, fixed the issue with the Crash Free BIOS3 included with the motherboard, and realised that there were some extra drivers that I didn't have. It came with the turbo key, some extra software for light overclocking of the CPU, and a graphics overclocker.Me not being a common overclocker myself, I have no idea what I'm doing, my CPU is fine, I can live with what I have.. But I would like to know how to work the GPU NOS.So I can get back to gaming, the computer can barely run GTA4 with 12FPS on minimum settings. Really cheezy looking.

I just purchased a OCZ Vertex 2 120 GB and was wondering what is the recommended setup for an SSD? I currently have a WD Raptor 300 GB, a older WD 150 GB hard drive and I am using Windows 7 64 bit. Is it recommended to use the SSD just for the Operating System or can you use it for all of your programs?

I have ordered a new computer with 2TB SATA disk. The first step I must do is to partition a disk.As far as I have been reading tutorials on this site it is recommended to separate Windows/ programs and Documents into separate partitions. So I am going to create C- partition for Windows and Program Files of about 100MB.What about the other partitions. Is it worth to create separate partitions for say for "Images", "Documents", "Development Projects". Or is it better to put all this stuff into one partition? Advantage of multiple partitions, as I see, would be more flexibility for backup/recovery. From the other side, disadvantage of multiple partitions would be not optimal usage of disk space.

FYI: whenever I download games, applications and multimedia, I store it or install it in D: leaving C: with enough space as much as possible thinking that it's good if C: is not loaded with programs and files since OS is stored there.

I'm from the old school days of using only spybot s&d and ad-aware but knowing times change and all, looking to get more current and clean my PC back up in the process. In doing a little research I'm using these programs and would like some further recommendations. What do you use? What would you recommend?
1. Spybot (better alt ?)
2. Ad Aware ( better alternatives perhaps?)
3. Tuneup Utilities
4. Malware Bytes
5. Diskeeper

As far as I know the 64 bit version uses more memory than than the 32 bit version, also the programs on that version use more memory than on the 32 counterpart.It is also my understanding that the difference is about 40%-50% of more memory intake.So, if the 32 bit version can use up to 3.25-3.75 GB RAM out of 4GB, and the 64 bit version uses effectively equivalent of about 2 GB out of 4, then why is this version recommended for anything less than 8GB?

I have a Dell E197FP Monitor I hooked up to my new Windows 7 box. Windows won't give me a resolution over 1280 x 1024, even though I was running at a higher resolution on my XP system before. I know Win 7 supports higher resolutions, because it gave me higher options when hooked to a CRT monitor I used first.

I've got a windows 7 x64 machine and I need to migrate it to another hard disk. Currently its running on an old 160GB IDE (i know....) and I want to migrate the install to a pair of 500GB WD SATA2 drives.I know how to mirror the disks, but I need to find a way to migrate without a re-install. It's a long time since I did anything like this on windows (It's so easy on other OSs).I'd like to partition the new disk (say, 40GB) and migrate the current system to that. Then add the second disk and mirror it, create the second partition etc. So...what are the recommended ways to migrate a system to a new disk?

I want to repartition my HDD which has a capacity of approximately 80 GB, but it is shown as 74.5 GB in windows disk management app. I have split the hard drive into 3 partitions of equal size each of 24.8 GB and installed windows 7 ultimate (32-bit) on one partition, and the other two are for my data (including documents, music, videos, pictures etc.). In my opinion, 24.8 GB partition is not enough for Windows 7 because it is the only OS that I use and as I install updates and service packs etc, it fills up gradually and leaving only a few GBs of free space left on the Win 7 partition.

I have just recently acquired a flash-drive and have been curious as to how to encrypt some files on it. The key word being some.It's a large drive (8GB), and will be used for many different things. I want an area on the drive to be used to transport/hold personal documents which I wish to have encrypted.I have tried software like TrueCrypt which decided to use the whole drive, and didn't seem to work properly anyway (?)I want something that acts like a 'safe', I double click it, I enter a password, I access the files.I need the software to run strictly from the stick, without the need for Admin' Privileges and for it to work on most operating systems (2000 and newer)... I understand I could use old fashioned password protected/encrypted .zip's.... but I don't know if Windows can natively read these without the need of say 7zip or WinZip.

Yesterday (11/02/12) Windows notified that there were a couple of critical updates available for installation. Always keen to keep my spec up-to-date I proceeded to install them. I'm afraid I don't know the details of the updates. As I did a System Restore (see below) they have been removed from the list of Installed Updates.After automatic installing and re-starting the first thing I noticed was that the screen resolution had been changed. Fixed that through control panel. More importantly I discovered that the following had occurred: I could not get any sound. Could not get streaming video. Flash crashed every time Certain links within Control Panel would not function Investigating (1) above, Device Manager reported that the hardware was functioning correctly. In attempting to resolve this via Control Panel/Appearance & Personalization/Personalization I noticed that the Sounds link indicated No sounds and I could not click through from the link (see below) to change anything (this happens with a few other Control Panel options).
I can find no way of reaching the sound properties. All links are non-functioning.For (2) I uninstalled Flash Player using the Flash uninstaller, cleared out the registry of any remaining entries for it (yes there were still a couple) and re-installed it (v11.1.102.55) and re-started PC. On first re-install I had no success but tried same process again and did get it to stream video (no sound). However when I started PC today we are back to the same problem.I have also cleaned registry with no improvement.Having drawn a blank with these two problems I then did a system restore to the point where the Windows updates occurred. This has not changed anything so I am really stuck as to know what if anything I can do. The system and applications generally are working fine. Networking and Internet connection is fine. As the machine came pre-loaded with Win 7 I do not have a Windows Disk.

I don't want anything too crazy, just something I can take with me on my IT jobs...
I've narrowed it down to these two...
AMD - Asus X5 Laptop - Laptops at Ebuyer
and
Intel - Asus X5DIJ Laptop - Laptops at Ebuyer
The main differences from what I can see is. The Intel has the extra gig of RAM but the AMD has the better graphics chip.
I do not know how the CPU's compare.
I would be ever so grateful for some good advice.

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.
Anyone know why it's not detecting my PCI cards.
Intel i7 920
Asus P6T
Kingston 3x2GB DDR 1333 Mhz
Creative Audigy 2ZS
Linksys WMP54G Wireless card
Windows 7 x64

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:
P5N-D
8 gb Ram
250 gb WD HDD
MSI 260GTX
If I left anything out just ask.

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.

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.

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!
