Finally got new tweakable machine after 3 years of Dell uniformity and after changing OEM OS (Powerspec/SiS) and freshly installing XP Pro , one device after the other is having configuration problems. Keyboard and Mouse (Logitech MX700) is especially annoying, but I also sport two AGP Adapters, 4 monitors, a bunch of dubs when checking for hidden devices, a 1394 Firewire card that CAN'T BE UNINSTALLED (device is no longer there but XP keeps asking for driver)......it's real frustrating. Paid $60 for a Bios upgrade just to find out it only works from a floppy. Hopefully experts around here have some hints. I've been googling for 5 weeks , lurked in many forums and am now contemplating yet another clean install. Or buy a bigger Power supply, or try SATA...or maybe a Mac???? I also moved soundcard, changed every Bios option and played with jumpers. Temp folder (Local) is littered with partial installs and box runs hot. I could post reams of Sandra, Everest or HJT if needed. Other then that, plug and pay is great!
