Is Intel Cheating ?

webadmin@intel.com — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 11:37:16 GMT

Intel XEON processsor is not processing faster than AMD Phenom.

I Have purchased Intel entry level Workstation for graphic rendering purpose. By discussion with Intel Personel as he suggested Intel Xeon 5410 2.33GHz 8MB. I purchased it with motherbord and chasis both are Genuine Intel Products.

Same Time I Purchased AMD Phenom Black edition. AMD Phenom X4 9950 2.2 GHz.

While working i rendered same file with same settings on both machines. As a Result AMD Processor Machine is working minimum 60% Faster than Intel workstation. I got shocked. Because I have purchased Intel Workstation @ Rs125000/- and AMD Machine @ Rs 54000/-.

I am blaming intel that their processor is showing 2.33 GHz but it is not working practically eaven at half speed.

My friends I have wasted my white mony. Think twice before you waste.

.inf driver package for NetworkAdapters

webadmin@intel.com — Mon, 18 May 2009 11:38:24 GMT

Hi all,

i need to integrate all driver informations for Intel Network Cards (Server adapters) into

our PreBoot environment (WinPE2.1, VistaSP1/Server2008 Kernel).

Is there any package to download which covers all (.inf and .dll) driverinformation of all

intel network adapters (AMD64 / X86) or do i have to download all packages and extract by hand ?

regards, Bernd

G45 Dual Display

webadmin@intel.com — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 00:17:45 GMT

Hoping for a little help...

I puchased a Dell studio with the G45 chipset with Blu-Ray and HDMI/SPIDF in January and was able to ouput to my monitor and HDTV at the same time. I had the monitor connected with the standard monitor output and the HDTV with the HDMI out. I was then able to output to both displays while configuring my video source (Netflix download for example) and then switch to single out(HDTV) while watching the movie and then back to the monitor when the movie was over. Things were pretty sweet.

At some point I updated the drivers from what was provided by Dell's initial install (from Intel's site) and now I have lost the ability to do the dual display. Now if I turn on my HDTV the monitor says "Frequency out of range" and the signal is not sent to my HDTV so I am stuck with no signal until I unplug the monitor cable from the back of the PC. I just updated the driver again with the latest Intel driver but I am still unable to use the Dual Display. Is there something that I can configure so that I don't have this issue? It seems very buggy...and is certaintly very wife unfriendly.

I appreciate any assistance!
