    Best software to clone SSD or HDD

    I think you misread me. While all of those cloned my SSD, none of them could make it bootable. This wasn't an issue with the controller yet. Once I used Macrium to fix my boot issues, which Diskpart and bootrec /fixmbr etc. also failed to do, then Windows booted. I then decided I wanted...

    Best software to clone SSD or HDD

    I removed the Vertex Turbo, but did not switch the Intel port. In either case, Macrium Reflect Pro is a winner! I used its included WinPE booter loaded onto a USB stick. In it, it has a Startup Fixer kind of like windows but much more effective, obviously. I've tried manually doing all the...

    Best software to clone SSD or HDD

    I've tried every option listed here except for the ones mentioned in Macrium post. Are they supposed to be [H]ardcore or something? Downloading my free trial now. Heres to hoping it works! Been at this for a few days. System: Going from 60GB Vertex Turbo to 240GB Intel 520 Things failed...

    WTB: 5870 Waterblock

    Hey guys, I know it's a bit of a long shot but long story short I need to cool an old card of mine. I'm looking for any 5870 waterblock, nobody seems to stock these anymore. Let me know, PM is best! Thanks! Reference design XSPC or EK preferred. No universal solutions please.

    5870 Fix

    I know, but all the posts and other related info lead me to believe I got a bad/dying graphics card. That or ATi had really shitty drivers. It would have saved a lot of aggravation if I had just figured my Patriot stick died on me. Really odd symptoms. Typically the system would only crash when...

    5870 Fix

    Hi All! Just wanted to post this here in case anyone else is having the same troubles I did. I was getting a LOT of BSOD with my 5870 drivers apparently to blame. Seemingly random bsod too. Whether it was 1+hour of BFBC2, or hanging out on the desktop at idle, with growing frequency. I...

    Why are Arcade and Pinball machines so prone to failure?

    i feel like arcades always just end up closing down anyway, so they don't bother. not even the gameworks could survive.

    i7 930 @ MC are good for OC?

    I have an A125. it takes a few more clicks of vcore, but I've had it up to 4.5ghz using evga e-leet. probably room for more. for the voltage, it doesn't run that hot. I'm @ 1.4v for regular / gaming /movie encoding use, but my watercooled temps are comparable to most others I've seen using...

    Acer X223WDbd 22" @ Staples $129.99 ($114 shipped after $25off100)

    how longs this deal going to last? maybe pick up 2 for a cheap crossfire setup. I've heard love/hate stories and hate to sink a bunch of money into quality monitors to find i hate it.
