Anyone have any experience using this Geil Ultra Platinum PC4000/DDR500

When I purchased  my motherboard i did so from Mwave as an bundle package, AMD 64 3000+/MSI Neo4 NF4/SLi/ and basically I choose the only ram they offered cause I wanted them to test everything  out before sending it off to me and yeah I was trying to save some money too, stupid me....now I'm buying the memmory I should have and I have 2 sticks I paid for unecessarily and Ill be lucky to recoupe 75% of what I paid for them, the ram I bought with this bundle package was just the plain vanilla Crucial pc3200/ddr400, cl3....actually I was surprized because I was able to get the fsb to 220mhz before it satrted logging errors, this effectively clocked my cpu from stock 1808mhz to 1998mhz, anyway after a suggestion from one of the Msi forum mods here, I went shopping for some pc4000, in a couple of days I will get it, who of you out there run the same ram in a similar system? and what performance( i.e. 260mhz fsb) from your experience can I expect to get from it , my rigs specs are in my sig btw and thanks for any input

Take a look at this list of RAM types and chips used - Memory Database
The AMD64 memory controller seems to like Samsung TCCD / TCCx and some do not like Hynix (which is used in the GeIL Ultra Platinum PC4000).  Winbond generally needs higher vdimm voltage which the Neo boards are not good at (mine is max 2.85v).

  • Question:  Do I need to run and anti virus program with MAC OSX Lion? Have heard different opinions! If so what would you recommend? Was looking at Sophos. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks

    Do I need to run and anti virus program with MAC OSX Lion? Have heard different opinions!
    You will continue to hear different opinions here, where thoughts range everywhere between "anti-virus software is the evil spawn of Satan" to "anyone not running anti-virus software is a fool."
    Truth is, this is still a very personal decision on a Mac. Depending on circumstances, it is still very easily possible to stay safe without using anti-virus software, but circumstances and personal preferences vary widely. Besides which, anti-virus software cannot even remotely provide you a guarantee of protection!
    To learn how to stay safe (with or without anti-virus software), and how to decide whether to use anti-virus software, see my Mac Malware Guide.

  • I have paid and downloaded LION and want to update my IMAC, can i just run install and it keep photos settings etc from Snow Leopard or is a full reinstall with wiped hard drive, anyone have any experience of this and do i need to run a backup beforehand?

    Always backup your important data before upgrading to a new Mac OS X.
    Lion doesn't erase the drive but better to be safe than sorry.
    And run Disk Utility  (Applications/Utilities). Verify and if necessary repair the startup disk before upgrading.

    I am trying open 'mv' files.  I found a program called Flip4mac MWV Player Pro.  Does anyone have experience with this or is there a different way to open these type of files?

    It works quite well, but is only useful for playing .wmv files such as those made on older PCs. MPlayer 1.0 rc2 is a free utility that should also play .wmv files.

    Hi,
    I have the Norco DS-500 and the FirmTek SeriTek/5PM. In my use, the SeriTek/5PM is quieter and provides a much cooler environment for the hard disks. Occasionally, I will hear the Norco rattle while the SeriTek/5PM is built like a tank and never has this issue.
    The SeriTek/5PM is the only 5PM on the market with user selectable fan controls. In addition, the advanced cooling system allows it to keep the warmest running hard disks cool. I would much rather have the SeriTek/5PM than any other 4 or 5-bay port multiplier enclosure on the market. It is quiet, cool and built to last.

  • TS3048 My Bluetooth keyboard is working partially. Mainly the Q W E R T and caps lock keys are not. Anyone have any experience with this ??

    Hi people. I am getting increasingly frustrated with this. I do not understand why only a certain few keys in a certain spot have stopped working.
    Anyone out there encountered similar problems to mine ??

    Hello danieloysius,
    I would be concerned too some of the keys on my keyboard were not working.  I found an article that can assist with troubleshooting issues with your keyboard.  I recommend following the steps under the section titled, "Some keys don't work as expected" in the following article:

    Hi,
    Did you find a way to solve your problem ? We have exactly the same for one application and we are using the same version of HFM : 11.1.2.1.
    This problem is only about webforms. We can correctly input data through Data Grids or Client 32.
    Thank you in advance for your answer.

    To enable the form to be signed in Reader you will need to open the form in Acrobat; goto Advanced>Enable Usage Rights and then save this copy of the form for sending out to the users.
    The user should then be able to edit and digitally sign the form. They can then email the signed/saved pdf as a browsed for attachment or via the email icon in the toolbar. Note - if you have created an email submit button on the form, then unless they have Acrobat they could only return an xml file.
    The other way to do this however is to create a dataset by 'distributing' the form. This time the Email Return button will send back a full version of the form. During the distribution setup you will have the option to email the form directly or to save it and send it later,so you can send to users as and when or even post it to a website or intranet.
    When you receive and open the returned form it will ask whether you want to add it to the predetermined dataset (or if you want to categorise the returns into geographical areas for example, you could create new additional datasets at this point). If the form is data heavy however, the dataset will become very large and unwieldy pretty quickly, but you can export the data from it (including signatures) in xml format and import this into an Excel spreadsheet.
    To simplify the Excel xml import process I'd recommend you carefully structure your form in the hierarchy (LiveCycle) into the order you would want the data items to appear in your spreadsheet and switch off those data items that you will not need by setting the default binding for the irrelevant fields to "None".
    Clear as mud? Hope this helps.

  • Ok so I use an hdmi connector on my iPhone 4S to watch netflix. But after I updated to iOS 7 it will not work my tv doesn't receive a signal. Does anyone have any insure to this please help .!.!.

    Ok so I use an hdmi connector on my iPhone 4S to watch netflix. But after I updated to iOS 7 it will not work my tv doesn't receive a signal. Does anyone have any insure to this please help .!.!.

    The 8 pin Lightning connector can only output 720p and lacks all iPod Out functionality unlike the full iPod Out functionality and 1080p that the 30 pin connector has and I suspect that they are coding iOS 7 specifically for the new devices which have severely reduced abilities and perhaps skipping adding the code needed for 30 pin devices to use their functionality with HDMI, etc.

  • Hi, I'm moving my site from MobileMe to Filezilla and there is apparently a coding error on iWeb that means when I try to get onto my site there's no access online and it says there are too many redirects. Anyone have any idea what this might be?

    Hi, I'm moving my site from MobileMe to Filezilla and there is apparently a coding error on iWeb that means when I try to get onto my site there's no access online and it says there are too many redirects. Anyone have any idea what this might be?

    Well, firstly Filezilla is not a hosting company but an ftp client that helps you upload your site to your new server. You need to purchase a new hosting account first though.
    If you have iWeb 09 then you can publish directly to your new host and you select the publish to ftp option and not MobileMe - MobileMe won't be here after tomorrow.
    You can also publish to a local folder if want to and use Filezilla to upload your site to your server.
    You don't need re-directs as MobileMe won't be here so you need to cancel and delete your domain name from your MobileMe account and then cancel any domain name forwarding that you have at your domain name registrar - that is what the redirects are about.
    Firstly ensure that you have your new hostings account - Filezilla is not a host, rather an ftp client that you use to upload your site.

  • I've preordered my iPhone 5 from apple and tried to get a sim from o2, they said I couldn't preorder. Does anyone have any information about this?

    I've preordered my iPhone 5 from apple and tried to get a sim from o2, they said I couldn't preorder. Does anyone have any information about this?

    Ethmoid,
    Generally buying on contract or buying outright from apple with a separate sim from a provider is little difference in cost.
    Work out the total cost over 24 months for the phone+monthly tarrif and you will see.
    Also the contracts where the phone is cheapest but have a higher monthly cost tend to be the ones that cost you move over a 24 month period.
    For example;
    Using O2 UK as an example (other carriers are very similar). For the iPhone 5 64GB;
    From Apple £699, plus O2 On & On £20 per month is £1179
    From O2, Phone £249, per month, £41. Total over 24 months is £1,233
    From O2, Phone £169, per month, £46. Total over 24 months is £1,273
    From O2, Phone £69.99, per month, £63. Total over 24 months is £1,581  <Cheapest phone, most expensive
    *These all use the same tarrif of unlimited talk,texts and 1GB data. The only difference is how much you want to pay upfront for the phone*
    Also worth noting is buying the phone from apple and the O2 tarrif is only a 12 month tarrif so you're not locked in for 24 months.
    As you can see, the cheaper the phone, the more the overall amount you pay.
