C:Amie, might I ask your assistance with KB hotfix installation?

Could the capacitor be defective? Well, that is almost impossible but who knows?


I caught another dead hang with HDD led on. I am now eager to set up USB debugging. How much magic does USB2.0 debug cable which is mentioned on MSDN contain? Can I make it myself?

woohoo

What is revision of this EHCI controller? Where can I know it?

It will be on the chip head or try the Mainboard tab on CPU-Z

Thanks! Woohoo, it's rev2.

However, system seems to be stable after switching to IDE mode.

IDE mode That will hurt performance, significantly. AHCI has a lot more features.

I do not feel that.

Also, to my surprise, Windows 7 hibernates with 8 GB of ram. It is not available through any menu but I can bind it to a power button.

Why wouldn't it hibernate? You just need enough disk space to byte swap into.

>Why wouldn't it hibernate?

I thought the same when I was using XP x64 which was not able to do that.

Oh, I found it in the menu.

XP's (server 2003) kernel wasn't really designed for power management tasks. Hibernation changed a lot between XP and Vista too. I can empathise that you were having issues under XP x64.

Using Visual Studio without plugins is a pain. Intellisense is fragile and I cannot even go "Back" to the position before search began, I cannot cycle through tabs in constant order.

Dammit.

Why are you unable to use plugins?

Express.

Ah. I hadn't realised.
