    E-mail him with your Mobo and maybe he'll include it with an upcoming release.
    Not to pick on the pig in a poke again, but does Cincy even remember what a world series is? let alone the actual trophy or the ring? Ask your local cable company to pick up WSBK out of Boston around the first of April and you'll see the REDSOX being awarded their World Series Rings.

    Core Temp is a simple little progie isn't it? ;)

    My little "pig in a poke" is loading windows right now!! I couldn't stand it, I pulled my gpu out of the CM-690 and stuck it in the Gigabyte 3D-Aurora.... I need to get another gpu so here goes the search again. lol. I may have to name all these different builds like sammyboy has. :p NOT....

    Wish me luck on the install. ;)

    I'll post some pix later on the build and some of different progies like cpu-Z and some temp monitoring software. :D

    cincyrob,
    Let me see! How many World Championships have the Yankees won?? I believe it was 39! LOL!! I lived in Northern NJ as a kid. What a great place for a kid who loved baseball to grow up. You could go to Ebbet's field in brooklyn for the Dodgers, The Polo grounds in Manhattan for the Giants and Yankee Stadium in the Bronx for the Yankees. Bus fare to the city was 13 cents and a nickel for the subway. Imagine an 8 year old kid doing that these days? LOL!! The parents would be locked up for Child Endangerment, and the kid put in a foster home! Sad sign of the times!

    Best Regards,
    Russ

    BlivetNC: Heh, kinda figured.
    Theone: Now that's one I can relate to. The places my dad used to go by himself many years younger than I am now, do it these days and you'd get mugged, stabbed, abducted or all three...
    Sounding like a bit of an old man here (pardon the expression) but modern society has gone down the pan.

    What is it with you and hard drives lol

    As far as I know theres nothing to it but plugging it in. On both my machines that have SATA thats all Ive ever had to do. Try a different cable or socket on the board as either could be faulty.

    well its the 3rd different cable and i have tried all the sockets i have for sata even Esata.

    i have an adapter that lets you from IDE to sata. just plugs into the back of the HDD then has the cable for sata.this is the second one i have tried still not seen any where...

    yea the hdd is good its the one im useing on the PCI-E x1 slot.card controler. works fine on there. but when i use this adapter it wont work in any sata slot. it has a led on it showing it has power so its getting juice to it...

    i hope its just that the sata slot wont recognize these adapters but will see a true sata drive when i go to get one down the road...

    rob I'm a little new to this too and hopefully Russ or someone smarter than me will add some insight. lol. BUT you should be able to go into the BIOS and adjust it to "see" your SATA drives as IDE (controller) or something like that. Sorry at work and don't have my BIOS handy. ;)
