i have a agp x4 card in my pc( a ge-force 4 mmx 128mb) and obviously i am going to upgrade it as i have vista on that system dual booted with xp
i have checked the motherboard specs and it states it can only take max x4 agp
can i use a x8 agp card on a system with a max x4 compatability but then i will only get x4 agp power
in other words will a x8 agp card just revert to x4 when put in a machine with x4 specs

I have 2x 120mm and 2x 90mm spots that are all filled now. I want to replace them all with red LED fans instead of the current blue LED fans. The 120mm's will be replaced with Silenx iXtrme pro fans. I can only find 92mm versions of red led fans that are at acceptable noise levels. Will they fit in the same spots as the 90's i have in now?

have recently registered and logged in for I am a new member. I wanted to download a driver for my DVD-writer, but it doesn't seem to work. The type of driver is mentioned above in the topic descriptin (read: NEC ND-2500A[size=5]) and I DO reach the download-page which actually says:

Nec ND-2500A firmware 1.09a
Firmware / Nec OS: Win All
Downloads: 1,376
Date: August 15th, 2005 15:07

Then I click on the link and I'm given yet another page. Right now I can choose download (a small link to the right) which just totally throws me off-guard on another internet page that doesn't seem to mention my driver. Or I can click on "Add to download basket" but then I get to see what's inside my basket and there's nothing?

The drive is a Sony DRX-810UL DVD/CD rewritable drive which is connected to my computer by ILink firewire (6-pin to 4-pin.) It recognizes the device, but doesn't install. When I check it out in the device manager, it says that "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" I'm running Windows XP operating system on my IBM Thinkpad R52. I've tried updating the drivers, but the Windows updater couldn't find anything. Please help!
