    Recommendation for an 80-100gb SSD for a mobo w/ SATA I (1.5gb/s)

    My motherboard's old (still rocking the AGP video card) and only has SATA I. I'd like to upgrade to an SSD and only need something in the 80-100gb range. So obviously I don't need the latest and greatest SSD, but something cost efficient bearing in mind that I won't be able to take advantage of...

    How does Win 7 handle putting multiple HDDs to sleep?

    I don't have multiple hard drives available to test this myself, otherwise I would. :) I'm using Win 7 on my Thinkpad. I'd like to get an SSD to use as the main drive, simply because it would be silent. I'm currently using a 500gb 7200 Hitachi as my sole drive. It's fast and relatively...

    [Win 7] Isn't Aero suppose to disable itself when 3D content comes on screen?

    *I am using the RC, so I'm curious to hear your reports of whether this is different in the RTM or not: I was just fooling around with TrackMania Nations, benching the video in full screen vs. in a window. It runs fine full screen, smooth and whatnot, got 32 fps. Then running at the same...

    NICs are showing up under "Unknown" and not "Network Adapaters'" in device manager

    I cannot get the wired ethernet or wireless working at all on this laptop. Under the Device Manager, the Broadcom 440x 10/100 NIC and the Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG are both under "Unknown Devices". There is no "Network Adapters" like there should be. While it looks like both drivers are...

    Can anyone identify this 1gb stick of "DDR" ram?

    I ordered what was described as two new sticks of Kingston PC3200 KVR400/1GR ram from eBay. One stick looked just like any other stick of DDR ram I've ever seen, while the other stick has little square ram chips (like a vga card has) instead of the usual rectangle squares (there are eight chips...

    PRICES ADJUSTED Hello, first time forum seller here (so you can bet I'm going to do my best to impress). I wanted to try this out instead of eBay and getting hit with all the seller fees that one incurs there. I have 100% eBay from both buying and selling and you can look me up under nfo_1...

    Networking in a dorm

    My school has two ethernet jacks in the rooms, one for each person. We decided to just put a wireless router into one of the jacks instead and have wireless for our laptops. The thing is, this prevents us from seeing the other computers on our floor's network that are plugged directly into the...

    Lost my temps in Speedfan after upgrading to 2 monitors

    A bit of a weird problem... my 6800 displayed its temperatures (ambient and core) in SpeedFan 4.28 when I had a single monitor, but since plugging in my second monitor SpeedFan no longer recognizes the temp sensors. I didn't change anything in SpeedFan, it's just a case of "it was there before...

    Touch up this photo, remove the background, make a wallpaper?

    I had this over in the Digital Artwork forum but meant for it to go here. Things seem slow in both places, but hopefully someone can work some magic for me. Here's the original pic, it's cropped and sized to about 1280*1024. I'd like to make it my desktop wallpaper. I'd like the...

    Will increasing bandwidth help Vonage VoIP (sometimes faint, echoes, fuzzy)

    Currently have Charter at 384kbps down/128 kbps up, two computers on the network both using the internet, and Vonage VoIP for the phone, all running through a Linksys RT31P2 router. Would spending the extra $8/month it would cost to upgrade to 3MB down/256K up help the Vonage problem? Does...

    nForce 2 integrated NIC drops signal w/ heavy load, PCI recommendations?

    Whenever I have a lot of programs open that use the internet, I lose my internet connection. For instance, I have AIM open, then I open XFire and Steam. I load a game of Counter-Strike: Source, and always, always, I get a message anywhere from 5-20 minutes later saying I've been disconnected...

    XFX is selling the 6800NU with 6 vertex shaders

    I use to have a Xfx 6800 NU PV-T40K-NDD7 from newegg. Something went wrong with it and I had to RMA it. Then newegg said they no longer had the PV-T40K-NDD7 so they refunded my money. I got that card for $164! Now newegg just has the PV-T40K-NDD3 going for $179. That made me kind of mad...

    Direct 3D problem with 3DMarks, DXDiag, etc...

    I'm getting a really weird problem. I didn't use to get it, but for some reason I am now. I have a 6800NU. My highest '05 score is 3784. But when I just tried to run it again, I get the following error: I get the first one right after I click "Run 3DMark", or right after the blue...

    9600 Pro will ocassionally turn objects black in CS:S

    Every now and then when I'm playing some CS:S, obects like boxes and trees, poles, etc will turn pure black instead of the nice, textured, brown or whatever colored objects they're suppose to be. I haven't tried any other games, though. I'm pretty sure it's not the card overheating, it's a...

    Right now I have just a normal, desktop, locked 2500+ Barton. I run it at default speeds, 1.8 ghz, 333 fsb, but I have the voltage dropped to 1.35v from the stock 1.65. I have the SI-97 on top of it with AS Ceramique and a Nexus 120mm fan blowing down on it at 7v. I idle around 38-40C and at...

    128bit vs. 256bit, and 128mb vs. 256mb

    I was wondering what the benefits of each are going to be in todays games. If I can't get my 9600xt RMA'd, it looks like I'll be upgrading. I've been looking at 9800's and evga's 6600gt. But I can't really compare and contrast cards with knowing what 256bit is going to give over 128bit, and...

    Need some Sony SDM-S74 & BenQ FP931 info

    I'm pretty interested in these two monitors. Both have DVI, the Sony is 17" while the BenQ is 19". Both are a rated 16ms. The BenQ is rated at only 16.2 million colors, and reading the review at anandtech it didn't give these 6-bit panels a very favorable review. The Sony S74 is harder...

    Zippy El-715, change color from blue to red?

    Kind of case modding, I guess. I have a Zippy El-715 in black instead of silver. The blue is great, but I'd really like to make it red. The blue in the keyboard comes from the same thing that makes your watch glow indigo blue. Initially I thought maybe I could take the blue layer out and...

    Best way to get RED case lighting?

    I have a black Antec case that'd I like to one day cut a window into and add interior lighting. I want red lighting though, not pink. I have some CCFL's that are suppose to be red, but of course, they're pink. Would red LED's work better to light it up? I wouldn't think it would look as...
