the nForce PC (Socket 939) is the only PC i've used for the Ceton. i watch TV on the it. and with my old TV card i could multitask too... the past three years i've wanted a Ceton. (with the ceton and HD TV the 2 GB of RAM gets used up too fast.)
i do everything else on my LGA1366- including this now, mostly gaming. And all with a virtual KM switch that ROCKS! Microsoft even started offering one for free. but for running two or more PCs with a single KM, a virtual KM BLOWS away all physical KVMs. it even works on MAC too. And i almost forgot it works over Wi-Fi. i have the same setup as:

(haha get it?) the same setup.
sry to ramble off topic so much; but u can see the power of ANY 2nd computer combined with a very good one now.
IT ROCKS!
Back to the original topic(s):
I did try the Ceton out on my LGA1366. But just to see if (diagnose) signal strengths. (i wanted to test and or verify if they were the same on both PCs- and they were.) but just for an hour or less. and i guess i used my LGA1366 to trouble shoot the TA. It turned out that the first video card (8800GTX) was NOT fully HDCP ready like i though it was. So the LGA1366 proved the TA was AOK and as a result i had to switch from the 8800GTX video card to the HD4650 i had sitting on a shelf for contingency use.
and yes, the protected content problem was fixed on my 939. i can't wait to try Linking the PlayReady folder to another drive letter. That's why i want to get this 939 stable as can be.
As far as stability goes... at the last minuets last night i found and fixed errors on the C Drive with Scandisk. Everything seems aok again.
i can't believe i didn't run Scandisk on my C Drive untill the last minuet last night. i should have done that WEEKS ago!
o well, at least i memorized how to check Scandisk results in Log activity in the Event Viewer after Scandisk completes during start-up and ur back in Windows. (Open Event Viewer/ Expand the Windows Logs category/ Select Wininit. it should be towards the top of the list.)
now that i think of it, if i do switch to the LGA775, there should be np trying to Link PlayReady folder to another drive letter.
Edit 1: i just noticed that it sometimes, as i type, sounds like i'm using the 939 when i'm actually using the LGA1366 . But that is only because i'm using one KB (and mouse) for both PCs, simultaneously, with the SynergyKM software.
