P6N SLI. Will G.Skill memory work with this board?

I have been an exclusive Asus MoBo user over the few years that I've been building my own rigs. Tom's Hardware has a good write-up on MSI boards and it caught my attention and interest, especially after comparing features versus cost as well as positive user reviews.
I'm wanting to build the next system around a Core 2 Duo and eventually include all that would be necessary for an efficient HD-DVD/BlueRay system.
After much comparing I've decided enthusiastically that I want a P6N SLI board. My current system is based on an Asus P5ND2-SLI board sporting a P4 630 CPU and 2 Raptors in RAID 0 configuration. It provides imagery via an EVGA 7800GT CO card. My last minute concern comes from narrow memory compatibility according to the MSI memory guide. This concerns me because my current system uses DDR2 memory and I just recently invested in two 1GB DDR2 667 G.Skill modules for it which I have yet to receive.
My enthusiasm for an MSI board...the one I want...was bolstered by the idea that I thought I could use these new memory modules in it. Not seeing G.Skill in the MSI memory list has dampened my enthusiasm.
If anyone knows if G.Skill will work in this MSI board I'd appreciate the renewal of excitement. Otherwill I'll just spent $20 more for an Asus board.
Thank you

F2-5300CL5S-1GBNJ
This is the particular model number of the modules I bought. Thanks for your help.

Just a few days ago there was a Test-Report on the P6N SLI on the German MSI Forum.
http://www.msi-forum.de/thread.php?threadid=29899
These were the Modules that were used throughout the test:
G.Skill DIMM Kit 2048MB PC2-6400U CL4-4-4-12 (DDR2-800) (F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ)
I am not sure of the specific kind of G.Skill modules you ordered. Here is an overview if all modules with exact model-IDs:

If you know the exact kind of the RAM-sticks you already purchased you can also have a look here:
http://www.gskill.com/gstechforum/
The thing is that it is not only a question of if G.Skill modules are supported or not but also a question of which specific model you are planning to install.

For everyone having memory problems with this board

I have been working on my memory problems with this board. Memtest failed every pass yet memory was fine and board was fine. Was using Kingstone Value Ram

set preformance to fast
set memory to
2.5
4
4
8
Set voltage to 2.7 if that does not work go to 2.75
now working great no more blue screens or os getting corupt it seems to run like a charm
Thanks to the people who have posted sefull iformation even know you have to dig deep to find it.

i was having mem problems with this board. But i set up bios v2.2 - ram voltage 2.75 - performance mode: slow and ram timing by SPD.
Seems to work great for me but my video card is messed up so my comp dies every ones in a while.

Will the digitial adapter work with this ca

I'm currently using the on-board Motherboard sound card because it has an SPDIF output (digital coax) that I can send to both the local receiver, and the receiver in my theater. I have the onboard card set to send both analog and digital audio out via that spdif so I can play mp3's or games, or movies I have saved on the computer in the theater.
My dilema is that using onboard soundcards often turn up problems with video games. Choppy games, and crashes can occur due to the poorly designed motherboard drivers for the onboard soundcard, even when using the most up to date audio drivers.
I have one of the original Sound Blaster LIVE! cards model CT4830. It has a yellow port that looks like a standard mini /8th inch audio jack (like the others). It has the exact same depth as the other 4 ports on the card, and looking at the solder points, it appears that it has less solder points on it than the other connectors.
So here's the questions:
. Can I use this card and use a RCA to /8th mini connector adapter to get Digital Coax out of this card, or does it require some special adapter cable?
2. If I can use the above adapter and make it work for digital coax, can I send ALL audio to that port, including analog audio, or will it only pass digital audio to it and not convert analog to digital?
3. The internal ports you can connect to on this card are: TAD, CD_IN, and AUX_IN. There isn't a port on CD_SPDIF. Due to that factor, if both of the above questions are yes, will this unit process digital audio (such as DTS or AC3) through the IDE channel and into this card from the CD/DVD player that's onboard, so that this card will send the DTS feed to my receiver, or will some additional tweaks be nessecary to make that happen?

Will the Cinema Display work with an older MacBook Air?

My wife has an older MacBook Air (circa late 2009) with one USB 2.0 port and one Mini Display port. Will the Cinema display work with this model Air?

It looks to me like the cinema display is a DVI connection. If you have a MiniDisplay port to DVI adapter that connected the MBpro to the display then you have everything you need. (plus a DVI cable). The MDP adapter plugs into the Thunderbolt port of the MBair.

You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
         you will be running a fresh install of OS X. You can now begin the update process
         by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
         installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Will my ipod classic work with windows 8

Will the Linksys WRT160N work with windows vista at all?

Will the Linksys WRT160N work with windows vista at all?
Some one please clear this up for me, it could be answered in the simplestterms from the English Language of course.
I've recently purchased the Linksys WRT160N however after purchase "of course"I manage to find reviews stating that the router will not work with the WindowsVista Premium, or windows Vista for that matter.
E.g.(Comments like These 'which are not my own')----------
"When I tried it with a new computer running Vista 64, it would install but the Linksys System Advisor would not. After 1 chat and 4 phone calls with support the system will still not run."
"It is a good product with XP, but if you use Vista 64 good luck. After several hours of working to get it running my patience and options have run out."
"It has taken almost a week for us to figure out that the Linksys Router, WRT160N from Best Buy does not workwith Vista Premium. I looked on-line to Linksys Website and discovered that the router, WRT160N is notsupported for Vista users. .."
E.g. (CommentContradicting to what has been said above)------
"Bought this to replace my outdated Linksys (new Vista laptop) and was blown away. Thisthing practically set itself up. It replaced the wired router and wireless routers I was using, asthe signal strength is awesome. I'm still pulling over 5meg ... "
So I guess one could see why I am confused, based on the 2 sidedcontradictions pertaining to this router actually working with windows vista ornot.
So can someone respond (preferable a Vista User) and tell me the truth as of towhat this router can an cannot do in terms of Vista? Thanks

It should work with vista without any issues if you are running any software on the computers (64 bit) from linksys it may not work but if you will connect that computer with an ethernet to the router it should work fine.

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router.
1. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?
2. Can my printer USB be plugged in and then shared between the devices?
3. Can I create a network and how?
4. What happend when a visitor logs onto my existing wireless router?
I'm new to Macs (well a returning user having started with Mac Plus!!) and not very technical. Any help / advice will be much appreciated.
Ray

The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router. I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

Iphoto will not open I am asked to check with developer that iphoto works with this version of OS x I have followed all the steps recomended and reinstalle ILife but to no avail

Iphoto will not open I am asked to check with developer that iphoto works with this version of OS x. I have Mountain Lion OS X I have followed all the steps recomended by T Devlin in a previous discussionand reinstalle ILife but to no avail

To reinstall iPhoto you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the:
HD/Library/Receipts folder (10.5 and earlier)
or from the /var/db/receipts/ folder (10.6) .
or from the /private/var/db/receipts folder (10.7 or later)
Then install iPhoto from the source it came from originally.

ThinkPad X60 Replacement Hard Drive - Will free fall sensor work with Active Protection System?

I plan to replace the OEM hard drive on my ThinkPad X60 with a Western Digital Scorpio Black drive. I found a board posting on Scott Mueller's Upgrading and Repairing Forum site that seems to indicate that APS will work with this drive. Here is my question: Is there any point in purchasing the drive with the free fall sensor option? (This is more expensive than the drive without the sensor.) Will this provide any additional protection above and beyond the Active Protection System. Will the internal free fall sensor in the drive be compatible with APS? In other words, should I buy a Scorpio Black with or without the free fall sensor?
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!
If I were buying a replacement drive, I'd get one without a sensor, but that's me.
Having seen way too many laptops that have gone through a real "free fall" I'll say that a damaged hard drive in such an event is usually the least of one's problems...
Good luck.
Cheers,
George

I bought an Airport Express from a supplier who told me I'd need at least iOS 5.4 on my iPad. My first generation iPad is apparently up to date but the iOS is only 5.1.1. Before I unpack the device I want to know whether it will work with this earlier version.

Apple says that a minimum of iOS 5.0 is required. See the support document below. Look for Requirements on the left hand side of the page about half way down.
Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 5.0 or later.

Will a WRE54G repeater work with a WRT160N router?

I'm using a WRT160N router and only getting 2 bars out of 5; fair signal. A friend has offered to sell me a WRE54G range expander. Will a G repeater work with an N router?

Yes,the WRE54G should work with WRT160N...You need to match all the wireless settings of the router to the range expander and it should work then.

Iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Will my Facebook albums remain?

I just upgraded my computer to yosemite and that includes the iPhoto application.
After opening iPhoto it says "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto." I'm worried that if I chose to upgrade I will 1. lose all my photos and 2. have my synced facebok albums taken off Facebook.
One time I moved my iPhoto library to an external hard drive and lost all my Facebook album photos so I don't want to make the same mistake.
So does anyone know if I chose to go through with this upgrade will I lose my photos in the iPhoto and the synced albums on Facebook? If I do lose photos, how do I go recover my previous iPhoto version?

Just to confirm. When I saved a copy of my iPhoto library on my external harddrive that's "backing-up" right?
Also, is there anyway on Facebook to tell which albums are synced with my iPhoto so that I know which ones will be gone if something does go wrong?
Sorry one more question Larry. I keep reading issues people are having with upgrading their iPhoto to 9.6 and the upgraded iPhoto does not recognize their library (see: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6676471). If this happens to me and I have to repair or re-install my iPhoto will my Facebook albums be affected?
Thanks for your help Larry I appreciate it
