Getting my hands on a Raspberry Pi for the time being is difficult as it is out of stock most of the time. Is cooling an issue on the Atom with a TDP of 7W? Lets say I use a fan on the CPU but still stick to not using a PSU, is DN2800MT such a bad option? Because one can get rid of a PSU...

I do not intent to use the SSD as a download disk. I have a separate 640GB WD disk for downloading purposes. The SSD is just to boot up asap.

I must've mentioned earlier. I am trying to make a fanless PC. So, no PSU / CPU fan.

Bumping this thread to find out as to where I can buy a PCI riser card at Hyderabad Something like this -> $17.55 - Flexible Ribbon PCI-E Riser Card for 1U/2U Rackmount Chassis - Networking I am looking for a cheaper one.

Replace the CMOS battery with a new one and try once. It will hardly cost you Rs.20. Since you are going to replace the battery, you need to setup BIOS again.

& Thank you very much for your valuable suggestions. I must admit that I did not know my oldie would consume almost as much as a ceiling fan does. I had actually given it away to my cousins but since they left it on the attic for quite sometime, I thought why don't I get it and do something...

Thank you for your responses.. will plan accordingly.. Out of curiosity.. how much did the Zotac Mag cost you?

Thank you for your response. A friend of mine was suggesting DSL or Puppy Linux to go with it (What do you say?). Anyways, as you said, Win 2k has better USB support and NTFS for large files. I remember having installed Win 2k on it before Win ME. But, I am looking forward to some flavor of...

150+ views and no reply yet.. When one is desperate, you try and find it out for yourself.. Called up a Sony Expert and found out what was feasible and what was not.. So here is how I did it.. Bought two cables from CTC (Chenoy Trade Center, Hyderabad) 1. Belkin High Speed HDMI - 10.2 Gbps...
