NoX Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 nope, di ako familiar sa mandrake kung meron silang distro specific way of setting up a mail server. fyi, available ang Redhat Enterprise (and suse enterprise ata) sa greenhills. at least it was a few months ago. Quote Link to comment

jack_bauer Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Video recording... buy a VIVO (video-in video-out) video card. Your only problem is the ina nd out ports in these cards are all S-Video. Overclocking.... I wouldn't recommend it at all. Just the extra cost for cooling and possible instability would rather make me just upgrade to the next highest CPU. Ganon din naman eh. Besides, the bottleneck in modern PCs isn't with the processor anymore. Overpowered na nga mga PC ngayon eh. Quote Link to comment
NoX Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 you should also try slackware. it's the best _out of the box_ distribution i've tried so far. the only package you have to seriously worry about is the proxy server (i haven't fooled around with this too); apache and sendmail are already installed by default and yesterday i started the sendmail daemon (just for fun) without changing any configuration from the default installation and i was able to send an email right away. it's lightweight, without any hacks like redhat. granted that it lacks in some graphical interface for system configurations, it's still quite easy to use and configure through the console. you just have to read, read, and read; but that's what you should be doing since you're acting as a system administrator anyway. you should also try some other distribution, a lot of users/sysads are also going for debian.

menime Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 mayorsam & menime I know its somewhat late but thanks for your help.One last question. Based on your respective replies it seems that overclocking involves adjusting the values in the BIOS. Is my impression correct or is there more to it.... Yup, you have to adjust the Front side bus frequency in your bios in order to overclock your proc. I agree with mayorsam that there are certain risk in pushing your system beyond it's recomended limit. By increasing the frontside bus frequency of your motherboard, you overclock not only your processor but also your ram, agp, and every pci component in your in system. Like mayor sam i was able to overclock my 2.6ghz intel to 3ghz plus and it ran very stable, but there was a really disturbing side effect. By overclocking my processor, my pc's memory subsystem lost a lot of memory bandwidth from a score of 4850 it went down to around 4150 (by the way i used sandra to measure the benchmark).Not that 4150 is a bad score in fact it still is very good benchmark, but the point is I was pushing my ram too much. Believe me that if you overclock, your ram would be the first thing to get busted, My previous system was a p3 600mhz, It wouldn't play modern games anymore because the minimum system requirement is around 800mhz p3's. So it tried to overclock it. It worked for about an hour but after that it crashed then my system become very unstable even after i reconfigured my system to to its original clock speed. I found out that one my 256 sdram was busted, I knew that it was because of the overclock. Actually processors are sturdy enough to endure more heat, so it would be able handle faster than what is specified, The reason to this is that manufacturers often underclock cpu speed rating to accomodate all market segments. for example 10 units of p4s are produced using the same silicon wafers...they would test the batch to verify what speed rating the processors are capalbe of. Often processors from the same batch would yield the same speed ratings. Lets say all this processor passed as 3.2 ghz pentium 4. Intel wont rate all thsese processors as 3.2ghz they will first look if they have stock defficiency of other pentium 4's. Lets say that there is a huge stock defficiency of pentium 4 2.6 ghz, then some of these processors would be rated at 2.6 in order to fill in the void.If someone gets this cpu's... he actually has 3.2ghz pentium locked as a 2.6ghz, These CPU's are the ones that are really pretty easy to overclock. Most of the time this is the case... specially for pentium 4's But again if you plan to overclock you got to have, sturdy rams, dont worry about your proc they oftentimes overclock easy.

Lilyblue Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 thanks for the reply .... well we have a tv naman the thing is ayaw nya ng 2 pa ung monitor he wanted it sana na nasa pc na din.... how this capture card works... do u think i need it to make it work?? before kasi ung webcam naka plug sa tv then may converter lang then nilipat namin sa isang channel sa cable. but now un he wanted it sana na wala na ung tv sa pc na lang lahat. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
el tororista Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Hello, I'm currently experiencing problem with my PC (clone). Previosly, when I'm playing games like Rise to Nations, my monitor will suddenly display garbage data (green and red lines). I tried a lot of things to remedy this. I already tried re-formatting my PC but still no dice. I also replaced the video card (same specs) but still I encounter the same problem. I also tried updating my drivers. The spec of PC are the following: memory: 512MBcpu: P4 2.66motherboard: ecs8xvideocard: nvdia fx 5600 ultrahard drive: 40gb Can anybody help me with this problem. Thanks Quote Link to comment

orthodoc Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 I bought a clone pc yesterday P4. They placed win98 command com on the hd. I then installed win xp professional. It always ask which OS will it use everytime i turn it on. Can I remove the win 98 without formatting? Thanks! Quote Link to comment
roxysnonie Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 (edited) I bought a clone pc yesterday P4. They placed win98 command com on the hd. I then installed win xp professional. It always ask which OS will it use everytime i turn it on. Can I remove the win 98 without formatting? Thanks! nope, now that the pc has two os in its hdd, it will always ask which os you would run at start up... had that incident when i reinstalled win xp pro on a pc, forgetting to reformat, the pc then had two win xp's in it, the old xp home and the pro installed. since your pc's new, do a reformat, divide your hdd in to two or three if its really huge then install your os on the least amount...

silverchariot Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 mga gurus.... Tulong..., meron ba kayong pang repair ng boot sector/FAT ng hardisk. Kasi yung laptop (IBM tHINKPAD) ng utol ko, nababasa nya yung laman ng hardisk pero once mag - invoke ka ng any write commands (whether copy/delete/etc), nag-eeror ("Unable to write to disk").. Try ko na mga procedures na ito: 1. Fdisk/Format - kaso format failed dahil hindi makapagwrite sa hard-disk2. Bios reset - ganun pa din3. Scandisk - walang error pag normal scan, pero once i-try mo yung surface scan, parang naghahang help, ala kasi akong budget for hard disk right now Quote Link to comment
