If you answer that'd be great
ok i bought this mainboard p5wd2 like a month ago from newegg with all these components and built a system! (check out from my sig)
My Questions;
0. Using the 0512 bios
1. Since 830's stock heatsink fan suck big time, what should I buy to get it run at your speed (4200mhz) ?
(please give me specific web sites and products)
2. my one and only ide hard drive(not sata) is connected to one of the red connector and works fine, but when i connect the dvdrw to the blue connector it doesn't work in the windows xp, please note that the dvdrw drive works in the post (meaning it can boot any bootable cd, i even installed the windows xp while it was connected to the blue port) but for some reason it doesn't read any cds dvds in windows.
so you think something is wrong with the connector or what
(i tried 4 different drives alll the same thing, drives doesn't work in windows environemt, but work in the post, what do you make of that?)
can something wrong with the controller it doesn't make sense coz why is it work in the post then, i installed the XP!
(don't tell me the install chipset drivers i have them latest installed intel-inf-7.2.1.1006)
3. how do i install the linux? (all linux versions cant see my hard drive) what to do any ideas?
4. that installing a third party driver while installing a OS, is annoying why why why is that?
