    Ok So I bought a new DVD drive as the previous one was driving me nuts with its problems.

     

    What I want to do now is use the old DVD drive in my old Xbox as the drive of that one is broken. I am following this tutorial

     

    http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/swap-dvd.php

     

    I have everything under control except step 2 ie how to set the DVD drive to slave mode? Cant quite find a good explanation via google either. Any ideas?

     

     

    put the jumper into the middle pins,that will change the drive into slave mode.

    Athek spells out my thoughts

    as for the mobo - i would suggest the ASUS p5q deluxe , brilliant mobo, managed to get e8600 to 4950mhz.. couldnt touch 5ghz! :P , the damned ram wouldnt go further and i didnt wanna increase the voltage.

    running 4.4 Ghz 24/7.

    on another machine, the vanilla p5q with the e2180 is @ 3.5Ghz 24/7.

    Guys, I wanted to know whether The Sennheiser RS130 Headphones are good. Reviews everywhere state they're pretty darn good. I'm not a hardcore audiophile, decently great sound is what I'm looking for, without the cables

     

     

    Their range of headphones are favored by many of the worlds' leading DJs.

     

    and u expect what?

    Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 (ddr2)

    Gigabyte GA-X48T-DQ6 (ddr2+ddr3)

    MSI X48C Platinum (ddr2+ddr3)
