This isnt because my router is slow but because wireless is just slow anyway. I can only assume that this was largely due to the very poor wireless connection. When i scanned the folders it took hours (which was to be expected) after all that was done, which was very late last night i went to goto my music but it took around 15mins for the albums to show. I have over 1k albums on my server and literally 1000's of movies.
Well i managed to install MP1.1 and also Xfactor skin, Moving pictures, My TVseries & SAFF etc.Īll working fine appart from the fact that I think the wireless is far to slow for this use. I look forward to any replies as i do hope to get this beautifull little box clocked and MP on there tonight. Does that mean i still need to install TV server but just not use it? I noticed in the early posts that someone had stuttering and it was to do with the MP heartbeat. I am not using the TV side of MP on the Asrock as I will just use the TV tuner in the TV itself. The other thing I have a question about is this: I will stress test it before putting MP on it to make sure it is steady.
Is the overclocking done in the software from asrock or is it in Bios? Thought I would with this unit though as it runs at 1.6Ghz. Are there any settings that i should try as i have never overclocked a machine as i dont normally like to run things hot and stress them etc. One thing i am thinking about doing is to overclock the unit.
Thanks for the tips on getting the latest drivers Managed to install win7 圆4 and set the unit up with all the latest drivers. I have told her that i need to put a network cable in for it to hook it upto the gigabit network. I am looking into fitting the Asrock into the house setup as the misses ALWAYS complains that when we are watching a film late that she cant just go upstairs and watch it in bed lol. The main reason for win7 is eventually i hope to transfer my tuners to the server and win7 seems a lot better for awaking from sleep for me.
Will probably put Win7 on the Asrock too. Not running WHS as i am just not used to it.
The server is running windows7 圆4 and flexraid to backup everything. The processor i really wanted i couldnt get anywhere so it got to the point where i just said SOD IT lol. The other reason that i went for the system i did was availability at the time i built it. I dont have any tuners in the Server as they are in the one in the front room, no time to fiddle. The Asrock ion will be in my bedroom as i have a good HTPC in the front room with a high spec for pc gaming etc. No big reason other than i do tend to rotate hardware around my house and it will probably end up in my workstation at some point.
