I'm trying to install open office in osx on my MBP, I got the Intel OSX version but when I try to run it it asks for X11, when I try to install that, the installer says my OSX drive already has the latest version.
What am I doing wrong?
I've recently purchased a 360 and am using it with my 19" widescreen TFT via VGA.
The TFT has a native res of 1440x900 and after trying all the different resolutions via dashboard the picture will often have lots of jaggies and sometimes display washed out colours.
Is this an issue with...
Any one had their battery replaced?
Heres the page on their site:

Looks like they are recalling certain batteries shipped between Feb and May 06 due to them being below Apple standard.
I've just sent my form off.
Well after coming home from work I noticed my PC was considerably louder than usual. In fact it was emitting what I had only read about, the noise that an x1800xt makes when the fan is at 100%.
Now my card is slightly OC'd from 600/700 to 660/750 but the strange thing was, after checking the...
I've been OC'ing this card with Ati Tool and was wondering if it wa better to set two profiles, one for 2D and one for 3D with different clock speeds or just run the card at the higher core and mem speed all the time?
I've tried overdrive in CCC but I'm not really a fan of that utility. And ATI tray tools v1.0.5.880 has overclocking disabled. Am I doing something wrong?
Just now after a restart, my PC won't boot anymore. The motherboard doesn't light up.
The power switch on the PSU lights up but when its set to on theres a loud sharp whine coming from the PSU which goes away if you switch it to off.
This has happened all of a sudden and was working fine...
Just recently my machine won't boot. The switch on the back of the PSU will light up but all that happens is that a high pitched squeal is produced by the PSU.
The mobo doesn't light up.
Tghe PC literally went from running fine, then restart and boom, won't boot.
Any ideas?
Is there a utility like add/remove programs so you can keep track of what you have installed? Or something like ccleaner that works for osx?
This is my first mac so i'm still feeling my way around.
If you load XP onto a macbook pro via bootcamp, will it be able to run all windows applications as if they were running on a PC?
In particular Visual C++?
Its going to be mainly for uni work. Preferably nice and light with a 12-14" screen. Can be bigger is its still fairly light.

Just got this game for PC after having it on PS2 and Xbox but for some reason the game runs too fast at time.
I have vsync on and the frame limiter on but at times everything will go as if in fast forward.
Anyone know why? The fps counter will say about 50-60 but the guy and everything...
Not sure if this is the right board or if the general one is better but I've been having an issue with the top 2 USB ports.
After moving my build from a Sonata 2 to a Tsunami, the top two ports don't work. I have them plugged into USB connectors 1 and 2 on the motherboard similar to where...
Well recently after moving my build from a Sonata II to a Tsunami, I've been experiencing a strange problem where I would restart the computer after it had been for a little while and it would get stuck at the POST screen, just after it detects the processor.
Normally I would have to turn off...
Well some of you may remember my thread about my then new WD2500KS which was showing erros in HDtune and also in Active SMART.
Well its decided to pack in altogether now and won't show up on boot and makes a loud clicking noise.

Not sure if this is the right board but does anyone know of a site like Newegg (as in competitive prices) that ship to Europe and in particular the UK?
So what does everyone think of it?

Dabbled a bit with the hero creator as well but to be honest there aren't too many options.

Anyone know what this means?
