Re: Take a look at my specs, please...
Well put it together on Saturday, all seemed ok - however, had no end of problems with the sata drive - sometimes the controller would see it sometimes it wouldn't, could only format 137 gb of the drive using a seagate disc, windows just fell over when trying to do anything with it, when it wasn't losing the disc.
Ran a seagate diagnostic tool on the drive, it says there is something wrong with it, and that I should return it.
Called scan and arranged to send it back... going to go to pcworld and get a big ide drive, so i can use my system as I don't want to wait for 2 weeks - once they decide whether or not the drive is faulty, I'll decide if I want a new one or not....
Funny how it works out - of all the bits I thought I was going to have problems with, the hard drive wasn't one of them.. oh well...
Incidentally, the bios says my memory is running at 200Mhz, dual channel - is that right? or should it be higher?
