Have you tried running Windows Update and installing the driver again? Maybe try that, then running the installer for an official driver afterwards, and see if that works. I've had something sort of similar to this happen to me (i.e. my video card not being detected) and the solution ended up...

You know, when I looked at this, the first thing I thought was "man, this is great but it could be so much better with Windows Server Standard 2008", and then Newegg delivered for the low low price of $633. I am truly impressed.

Okay, I'll take it back then. I just wanted to see if maybe I forgot something diagnostically.

Anyone? :(

Hi guys! I'll try to give as clear an explanation as possible, but feel free to ask for clarification if needed :) I picked up a used DW1640. Physically, the drive looks great. Very little cosmetic flaw whatsoever. So, it doesn't appear as though it was physically abused. The problem is that...

Does anyone know how long this deal is set to last? Also, how long it'll stick at 29.99 regular price?

I decided I'll probably hold out for the 2209WA. Hopefully will be able to find a decent deal on it.

Well, it looks like it's the same panel as the Dell 2407WFP? Or am I wrong about that? Maybe at least similarish? Those seem to be OK for gaming but I don't know. I am tempted but just not sure on this one.

How good is this thing for gaming versus, say, the old LP2065 (which can be found on refurb also) or the Dell 2209WA? I'm tempted to get this monitor but I'm wondering how versatile it is. Prad's review seems to indicate some ghosting or something that the 2065 and 2209WA don't experience...

anyone? Only a few hours left >.<

I'm sort of on the fence about this. I have a Q9450 / Asus P5Q Deluxe based system at the moment running at 3.2GHz with a GTX 275. Kind of wondering what sort of performance increase I'd get with this config, assuming I overclocked the 860 to 3.2GHz as well or whatever is practicable...

Just in case someone is watching this thread and hasn't seen this other thread yet: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1472740 - L4D2 / $29.99 @ Amazon Lightning Deal Edit - Nevermind, sold out >.<

HD4890 or GTX275.

Depends on resolution. As you can see it's running 40MHz higher on the clock, and I imagine there may be some gap in the shaders too. The memory is also running 100MHz ("200MHz") faster as well. You can probably just overclock the SC up to those speeds, though, and in an SLI configuration I'm...

The XFX is faster, but it probably won't matter much in SLI. Here's a guide for setting up custom auto-fan control in Rivatuner: http://www.guru3d.com/article/rivatuner-20-fan-speed--overclock-guide/
