890FX-GD70 - How so I set AHCI in BIOS?

I cant find where to set AHCI in the BIOS.
I found something to set RAID to AHCI but I am not using RAID.
All my drives are JBOD.
Can anyone help me out?

Quote
I read in one review that AHCI on this motherboard is pretty bad.
Reviewer recommends just using regular SATA
Well I wouldn't say it was 'bad' but certainly if you're just using a single SATA hard disk, there isn't really much to gain from using AHCI mode anyway.
If you need more assistance, please read the >>Posting Guide<< and provide system specs.

Memory Problem on 790fx-gd70 - how to access DDR Voltage in BIOS?

I have been getting memory related problems on a 6 month old system. I could only boot from one stick of RAM (Corsair TW3X4G1333C9A) but even then system was not stable for gameplay or stability test though this stick did pass overnight memtest. I returned the board, cpu and memory for them to test. They diagnosed faulty RAM and replaced. Well it worked OK for 24 hours then I started getting BSOD "PFN_List_Corrupt" and "Memory_Management" crashes.
I tested the new sticks and one fails memtest after a few seconds with 2378 errors and the other, although it passes memtest with 20 passes, crashes out straight away on Prime95 Blend Test (i.e. the one that stresses RAM).
They suggested I enter DDR Voltage manually rather than relying on Auto but no matter what I seem to enable this option is greyed out. Does anyone know which settings need changing from defaults so I can get at the voltage section?
I have tried swapping around the dimms but they are all the same regardless so not a slot problem. Now of course, I don't see it as a RAM problem either unless I am the unluckiest person to keep getting bad sticks. So now I think maybe something on the board or CPU is causing damage to the RAM or at least causing it to mis-report. Could a fault in the memory controller be doing this and if so how can I test for this?
At my wit's end here. Hope someone has some ideas - either on how to access DDR Voltage in the BIOS or get to the cause of my problem.
Many thanks.

OK thanks for explaining a bit more . This power unit did get some very good reviews in the sub $100 from many sites and from these I thought it would suit my needs. I have arranged to try a friend's 650w next week.
I think I am maybe not being clear. I have had the system running OK for six months. I had had no need to test the ram and didn't bother with stability tests at that stage. I am not a gamer and use my machine more for video and graphics work. One thing I did notice from the start was the couple of games I do have on (Call of Duty and Fallout3) would give occasional freezes. I put it down to my now rather old hot GPU which I would get around to replacing in due course.
Now the real problems started recently when I got round to replacing the stock cooler with a Titan Fenrir. Trouble with this is it overhangs Dimm1 but in moving around the memory sticks I seem to have opened a real can of worms. I could only get it to boot from one of the sticks. This stick passed memtest but would crash out of prime95 and games would freeze within a couple of minutes.
Now, the retailers here in the UK told me to send back board, cpu and RAM. They tested all 3 but they only replaced the memory and as you can see from my first post the memory related problems have continued. The memory by the way is in Corsair's list as "100% tested compatibility". Is it possible that something about the CPU/Board that is damaging the RAM? If a stick is failing memtest (it failed another test too called Windiag) is that definitive? It is bad for sure or board/cpu misreporting? Am I right in thinking memtest86 does cannot distinguish faulty RAM from faulty memory controller? Is there a test I can do to check if the CPU alone is faulty?
I don't know if this means anything to you guys but when I ran the prime95 (Blend) recently with both sticks in it failed straight away on 2 cores but went on running on the other 2.
One of my other frustrations is I don't know anyone else with am3 board or memory so swap things around.
Any suggestions for pinning this down would be much appreciated. Just don't assume my knowledge is as great as yours . But I do learn. I never knew v x a=w for example. And I now know how to change DDR Voltage in the BIOS - I had been expecting a sub-menu where Auto was greyed out and in fact it was just sitting there waiting for me to press + and -. Very embarassing that I spent hours trying to change this when the instructions on what to do were right there in the help column!

System locks up under heavy load 890fx-gd70 T1055

So i just upgraded from 790fx-gd70 x4 620, to my new 890fx-gd70 x6 t1055. same mushkin ram 996657 - 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800 7-7-7-20 Blackline. never had any stabilty issues with my 790fx. Now i cant get the thing to run much at all. in order to get system to boot up windows 7 i had to manualy set voltage to ram up to 1.9 then it would let me install win 7. When i run a stabilty test or put heavy load on the system it just locks up. everything in bios is set to auto exept Dram voltage. help?
video card is a ati 5770 and power is a Tuniq Ripper PSU-RIP1000W-BK.
i THINK it has to do with voltage for cpu or NB but dont know where to begin.
also cpu doesnt get hotter then 35c i using a 120mm Rifle CPU Cooler. under no/low load it is stuck at a cool 17c. my case is a NZXT TEMPEST EVO. so dont think heat is a issue.

put just 1 stick of ram in dimm #3 slot and it seems to be working fine under stability test so far. gonna run it for a while and see how that works out. windows still wont load unless i manually set voltage on ram to 1.8 or higher.

890FX-GD70 questions.

Hi, I would like to ask 2 question.
first is, i am using a 1055T x6, but under cpu-z and control center my core is only 800mhz with x4 multiplier.. Is there a way to lock it @ 2800mhz ? Is that normal? I never use AMD before, my intel seem always stick to the core level to me.
secondly, I would like to ask is there anyway to turn up my ram? I am only seeing PC3-10700 @ 667 mhz I would like to see 1600 since i am using corsair dominator 2x2gb 1600 cl 9-9-9-24.
I don't really understand computer, please go easy on me. I have done some reading. Also Do MSI board come with a IDE line? The guy that did my assemble...didn't include one, so i have to pull it from a broken IBM computer (really old one too) Are those IDE cable fine? (only use for my old optical drive)
thank you.

I've never noticed any performance differences with cool-n-quiet. As soon as you launch an app that needs the performance it will run at full speed. You can also create a custom power management profile in windows and set it to run a full speed. That way you don't have to disable it in the bios. You just change it to high performance when you want to benchmark or game but it really isn't necessary.

How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

unless i'm missing something, i think you got mixed up, this is easy google for walk throughs
i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups

How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

I want to set up family sharing but it won't let me because all the emails are already associated with the one iTunes account we have. I am afraid to delete because my children use that email address for text messaging. How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

Hey Wendaroski,
I am not quite sure what you mean by "my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account" but what you need for each family member is an Apple ID. Yours would be the one for your iTunes account.
If the other members of the family already have an Apple ID you can invite them to join the family group. If not they will need to create one, using their email address. This article shows how -

How do I set up IPad 2 and 2-4s IPhones with Apple?

I have a 32 GB IPad 2 and ITunes on my Windows computer and just ordered 2-16 GB 4s IPhones for my wife and myself I have 18.5 GB of data on my IPad, but only want to selectively include some of the applications and music on my IPhones. I have IOS5. Both IPhones will be loaded with appx 10 GB of data, but each will have different applications and music - all which is loaded on my IPad 2 and ITunes on my computer. How do I do this most efficiently?
1. Do I use the same Apple ID# I use now on all devices, or set up a separate one on each device?
2. If I use the same Applie ID# on all devices, should I set up a different ICloud account on each device to keep the backups separate?
3. If I download an album on my IPhone, will either (or both) 1 and 2 allow that album to be downloaded on all of my devices through ICloud?
I was advised that if I have a large music library to make sure the phones aren't set to autosync. Does this sound correct?
I'm trying to get answers to my questions lined up before they I receive them so I know how to best set them up.
Thanks everyone.

1) You can use one id. My wife and I do.
2) Not sure. Sorry. We share one.
3) Yes.
We sync via the cable. We simply select what we want to sync on each device and sync.

How do I set up multiple iMessage emails with one Apple ID?

We have one Apple ID and many family members with iPads, iPhones etc... As it stands we all receive all incoming imessages and this is impracticle moving forward.
Other than setting up multiple Apple ID's how do we set up each user with an individual iMessage address?
I understand how to do this using a phone numbers but cannot stop all users getting imessages sent to the Apple ID email address. I have tried inputting secondary email addresses but get error messages advising "account already in use".
Long story short.....Can I set up all family devices on the one apple ID but designate each member with an individual email address that precludes them from receiving iMessages sent to the "master" Apple ID address?
Phew
Thanks

To my knowledge, yes, this is impossible. Your primary iMessage account is your AppleID account, so as long as you all share the one AppleID, then all messages will appear on all iOS 5 devices using that AppleID for their iMessage account.
The only thing to do is have people set up their own iMessage ID. They can stil then set up unique "receive at" addresses, but these are really additional addresses for messages to go to, and do not get around the fact that the account itself is defined by the AppleID.
P.S. there is nothing stopping you from using the one, common AppleID for the iTunes and app store, then setting up a new one and just using that for iMessage.

How do I set upmy Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time. I can use one or the other, but not both.

how do I set up my Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time. I can use one or the other, but not both. From systems Preferences I must select one or the other. I want both to work all the time.

Hi,
I would recommend you to use 0FI_AP_4 rather using both, particularly for many reasons -
1. DS: 0FI_AP_4 replaces DataSource 0FI_AP_3 and still uses the same extraction structure. For more details refer to the OSS note 410797.
2. You can run the 0FI_AP_4 independent of any other FI datasources like 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_GL_4 or even 0FI_GL_14. For more details refer to the OSS note: 551044.
3. Map the 0FI_AP_4 to DSO: 0FIAP_O03 (or create a Z one as per your requirement).
4. Load the same to a InfoCube (0FIAP_C03).
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

How can I set up an email user as "send-only" (no mailbox for receiving)?

Can anyone tell me how I can set up an email account that can send emails but not receive emails.
Our Web application has been using a generic email address "[email protected]" in all of our PHP Web applications as the sending email account. I have this user set up in WORKGROUP ADMIN as a proper account. However the account gets tons of SPAM emails and is constantly filling up.
Also, all of the email accounts require SMTP authentication to send emails.
Is there any way to identify an account as a send only account so we can generate emails from our Web applications that cannot be replied to?
Thanks for the help
-- Jon

Doing so will cause issues. If you send out mail which to an outside server appears to be non existent, mail may be rejected and you may even be blacklisted.
You can remove the account from WGM and add a role account as an alias send to /dev/null. This will look to the outside world like an existing address, but simply be discarded on your system. You should however include a working address in your mailings for people to be able to respond.
Assuming you use local domains, edit /etc/postfix/aliases and add:
noreply: /dev/null
(you can change noreply with the sender used in your PHP apps, but I'd probably change the PHP apps to use noreply as this signals to people receiving your mails that this address is unattended).
When done, issue:
sudo postalias /etc/postfix/aliases
sudo newaliases
sudo postfix reload

In iCal how do i set an event every 3 months

In iCal how do i set an event every 3 months.

Sk8trdad,
I presume that your question relates to the Calendar App on the iPad.
You have to use the "repeat>Custom" setting on the Desktop version of iCal.

How can I set an event to repeat on a week day rather than a numerical day of each month?
