    WTB/WTTF: Old shareware / demo / gaming magazine discs

    Hey folks. I collect old game magazine CDs / DVDs, demo discs, sampler discs, that sorta thing, and I figured I might as well ask if anyone here has some they'd like to part with - preferably for cheap, or in exchange for other items. I mostly do this to document various builds, patches, or...

    FT: iOmega Clik! PCMCIA cards

    This is kind of an odd thing to offer, so... I was cleaning my house and I stumbled upon these two iOmega Clik PCMCIA card readers. They come with a carrying case and software, but they are completely untested (since I don't have any computer with a PCMCIA slot.) Since I can't test these, I...

    Does Adobe still allow license transfers for discontinued products?

    I've been clearing out my home and I recently found that I had an old, apparently sealed copy of an Adobe product in storage. I tried looking it up on eBay, but the UPC doesn't return any hits, however searching for it on Google does bring up listings. I want to sell it, but I think it would be...

    Issue with old hard drive not being detected by Windows 10 [Edit: Fixed, sorta]

    I was going through my storage when I found an older WD6401AALS hard drive I was using years ago. I popped it in a SATA dock and Windows 10 wouldn't recognize it, disk management said the drive was "dynamic invalid", and it won't let me access it. Most of the software that said it could recover...

    WTB/TF: Hauppauge AV Cable (DIN for HD PVR Rocket)

    https://hauppauge.com/pages/webstore2/webstore_av_cable_din.html Anyone have one of these around? I wanted to buy one from them directly but the shipping and tax makes it a bit expensive. I figured I'd see if someone has a spare here before buying it from them. Lemme know. Thanks!

    FT: Adobe Acrobat X and 9 Standard w/box and license transfer for an unlocked phone

    I had a few Adobe software packages in storage, but I didn't know if they were legitimate, so I registered them to my account and asked Adobe customer service for help.

    Anyone know if there's firmware updates for WD20EARX drives?

    I picked up a set of 2 TB WD Green drives (wd20earx-00pasb0) recently from a local liquidator - they were manufactured in 2011 and all have under 330 hours total use time, so I want to use them for data storage. A friend told me that these drives need to have their firmware updated, but I can't...

    For trade: New Adobe Acrobat 9 + X Standard (or license transfer)

    A couple of weeks ago I posted this thread asking for info on whether or not two sealed Adobe Acrobat 9 / Acrobat X software suites were legitimate. Sadly, I didn't get an answer - and Adobe doesn't seem to have a way to contact them to ask about those specific products. They only seem...

    Anyone know much about Adobe's COA stickers? Are these legit?

    I recently stumbled upon this Acrobat 9 package while doing some purchases at a flea market / swap meet / car boot sale that sets up near my house. I've also had this Acrobat X package in storage for some time. I'm well aware that there are a lot of counterfeit copies of Adobe software out...

    FT: Asus Zenfone 2 with lots of issues for a decent budget phone

    A buddy of mine bought this phone about a year and a half ago, but the screen developed an issue - about 80% of it just froze up at random, moving it around so the screen flipped made it work half the time, so he bought a new one and just put this one in storage. Since he found out my current...

    Copying files without changing file dates possible? (Windows 7)

    I recently reinstalled Windows, but not before making a backup of the entire hard drive, and now that I've got the system more or less working fine I want to copy the documents I have on my old drive. Problem is, using Windows file copy modifies the file creation dates - and I really don't want...

    Does the Windows 7 Downgrader tool still work?

    I recently got a legit copy of Windows 7 Pro, which I plan to use to downgrade my current Windows 7 Ultimate install. While there's nothing wrong with Ultimate, it has a ton of features I don't need, and the only thing I need Pro for is Windows XP mode. I was wondering if anyone has had any...

    Help a newbie out with understanding these SMART values? And upgrading!

    I'm pretty dumb and I'm not entirely sure if these are good values for my hard drives. SmartCTL says they are, but I want to be sure since I'm thinking of upgrading my SSD and at least one of my storage drives, and aren't entirely certain I'll choose the right ones to retire (or move to...

    Question about Dell OEM and the Windows 7 to 10 upgrade

    Well, hoping I can get some help here. A buddy of mine just bought a used, but functional, Dell Vostro 260 Tower. The thing has apparently been upgraded to Windows 10, but the machine originally shipped with 7 installed. I figured, if the thing had a license / OEM sticker on it, I would be able...

    Is this a legitimate Windows 7?

    A friend of mine in Mexico has been stuck using a pirated version of Windows XP for many years, and we've been looking for a deal on a legal, non-OEM copy of Windows 7 so he could at least try to have a more modern OS on his system. (The Windows 10 upgrade offer doesn't hurt, either!) I found...

    Anyone know how to redeem XFX Radeon Rewards?

    I purchased an XFX Radeon R9 270 (R9-270A-CNFC) card last weekend. According to XFX's product page, the card qualifies for Silver Radeon Rewards. I didn't get a card with my purchase at TigerDirect. So I spoke with someone there through chat, and they told me I should contact XFX... After...

    My WD Black runs at 56c - is this too warm?

    How hot can the WD Black drives get? I have one I bought in September 2009 (a WD6401AALS 640GB) which currently goes up to 54c when doing its thing - it runs hotter than the other drives in my system, but I have no idea if that's supposed to be normal. I was thinking of replacing it with another...

    Is Shadowplay worth using with an i7-3770?

    I'm currently building a new rig, and it will very likely have an i7-3770 CPU on it (I've almost finished a deal here for one.) I'm trying to choose a video card and I'm unsure if I should go with a GeForce GTX 750 ti or a Radeon R7 265 - see, I like to record game videos, and I've heard that...
