Hello everyone, I am looking to set up dual monitors, and want my next purchase to be a widescreen. Currently I have a Viewsonic VP930b standard aspect ratio 19" LCD, however I have issues when things don't match properly. In these regards, I require a widescreen monitor which will have a...

Recently purchased a ASRock 939 Dual-SATA2 and an Opteron 170, and installed it all today to put it to the test. What I am experiencing is some very bizarre temperature readings from the motherboard. It tells me that the CPU is running extremely hot at around 54 degrees Celsius idle...

Hello folks, I was hoping I could get a little help from someone who has maybe had this trouble in the past. My roommate just upgraded from an ATi Radeon 9000 Pro, to a nVidia BGF Geforce 6600GT. We deinstalled all of ATis Drivers, then ran drivercleaner before inserting and installing the...

Windows 2000 Hey everybody, hoping you could help me an odd issue that cropped up recently after I stopped some services. I think the one that might have done it was logical disk manager... but I can't really be sure as I did a whole bunch in one whack. Anyways, my Windows partition is...

Bought a new floppy drive the other day for my AMDMachine (K8N Neo Platinum), and the computer recognizes it fine, it shows up and everything, but whenever I go to open it asks me to insert a floppy into drive A: Now, this is what I've done so far. Used the same FDD and cable in another...

Hey guys, just wondering if this is worth an RMA... I've noticed Knights of the Old Republic starts artifacting when my card goes above 65C. I haven't noticed any other games doing this, and I have other problems with KoTOR (it crashes periodically when loading)... Any opinions?

I've got the MSI K8N Neo Platinum (S754) but I can't figure out how to get the bloody firewall working?! Help would be appreciated. I assumed that it would be a download from nVidia's website, and although I can find mention of it there, I cannot find a suitable download for it. Thanks in...

I'm looking to upgrade an old Dell P3, does anyone know if it is possible to put DDR RAM in this computer? I get the sneaking suspicion that only SDRAM would work... but... I don't know for sure. Its from a year 2k Dell Dimension, I don't know what the motherboard is specifically though.

I stumbled across an "Iomega ditto(easy 800)" yesterday... and I'm curious as to what in hell it is? Any light someone could shed on the situation would be appreciated :D

Hey guys, just recently got a new set of Cambridge Soundworks (Creative) Megaworks 550D speakers. Unfortunately... the rear right channel seems to be dead. Its not the speaker, I've plugged the "bad" speaker into, say, the front left channel and it works, and the "good" speaker from the front...

Hi, I have the option of getting a refurbished DELL P991 or a P1110... was hoping some of you could give me some hints on how to deal with a refurb to make sure I am getting a good quality product that won't burn out once I get it home, and maybe some personal experiences with these two...

Hi everybody. I have no experience in this regards, but my office is moving, and the IT guy is quoting us an exorbitant fee to build a server for us. Here are the basic things we need to do in the office. 1) Handle roughly 4 printers so everyone in the office can print off any printer 2)...

Hey guys, I recently (about an hour ago) placed an order for the above mentioned Chaintech soundcard. Now I'm looking for a good speaker system to pair with it. I'm mostly concerned with watching movies and listening to music. Playing games... well, I'm sure the Chaintech will offer better...

I am seriously looking into turning my PC that I use for gaming (A64 3000+ X800 Pro, 1GB DRR400, nForce3 250gb) into a mild HTPC. I have a 19" CRT (Not sure if that matters) and I would like to be able to watch TV, record TV, and all that good stuff. I was browsing through these forums, and...

I know you're all going to recommend that Mitsubishi one.. whatever it is, but it really isn't an option for me. Ok? Now, with that out of the way :D Should I choose the Samsung 955DF or the Viewsonic P95F+ ?? Thanks in advance!
