    Sony 21 stopped working

    mine did the exact same thing, would power up but no picture. Just happened one day for no reason. I called sony and they replaced it twice with refurbs which weren't to my liking and then with a brand new 21 incher, which was fine. I had to pay the shipping cost of one monitor, they paid the...

    Well guys, i finally got ut2k4

    red orchestra is probably the biggest mod, it is a "total realism" WW2 mod, there aren't any crosshairs for the guns and there is no meter for the amount of ammo u have left, you have to count your rounds.

    Should I install amd64 gentoo or the x86 gentoo?

    I have a AMD64 3200+ so I can use the AMD64 64 bit gentoo. I am worried however that this would not allow me to use ut2004 since it is 32 bit and that I would have far fewer applications to choose from and problems finding 64 bit drivers if I couldn't use any 32 bit programs. If i use the x86...

    help with XP quick launch or alternative program

    I was wondering if there was a way to have more than 3 programs in my windows XP quick launch bar. If I place more than 3 there then I have to click on a double arrow in the bar and that opens up a menu with the rest of the programs. Is there another 3rd party program that is better than the...

    Need a good little program to change 100's of bmps to jpegs all at once?

    looking for a program to take the SS I take from games, 100's of Bmps and save them all as Jpegs with the files name still the same. The less intrusive and small the program is the better. Up until now i've been doing this by hand but it is getting really tedious. Thanks!

    Random blue screens when playing games.

    I had this problem with ram that wasn't bad on a system that I wasn't overclocking and all I had to do was raise the voltage going to the ram... as I raised the voltage slowly I would get less and less blue screens until now, I never get blue screens anymore. Its at 1.8 I think.
