I'm looking to sell my current crossfire setup. Never been used to mine coins the only thing I've done was unlock the shaders on both cards. MSI Twin Frozr III and a Powercolor, both shader unlocked and work perfectly in crossfire. I have the box for the MSI card but not the Powercolor if it...
Hey guys, I've been searching this forum recently because my fiancee needs a new laptop. She's currently got a 5 year old 15" Acer Aspire single core with Vista x86 on it and it's literally falling apart.
I have $685 in amazon gift cards and want to use those to purchase a new laptop. I've...

Q6600
Looking to get a 45nm chip and get rid of my Q6600.
The prices are similar, I might have to throw in some cash. PM me if you have one.
Just thought I'd add that nothing is wrong with this chip. No lapping or anything has been done to it, it's life has been lived underneath my fusion waterblock.
I'm just curious but I've got a raptor and two terabyte drives. If I want to reinstall windows I usually unplug my two TB's because otherwise windows installs part of itself on one of them.
Is there a way to install windows without unplugging my two TB drives?
I've got a D-Link DGL-4300 and lately it's been dropping the internet/network connection every few days, I have to reset the router and then it's fine again.
It happened after comcast doubled it's speed and went to the DOCSIS 3.0. I don't know WHY it's doing it.
I'm out of ideas now...
Hello all, so I installed Vista x64 on my 1TB HDD while my raptor was in for RMA. Now that the raptors back in with windows on it there are some leftover windows files on the TB that I can't delete.
Program Files, Program Files (x86) and Windows are the three folders left on the drive now...
Hey guys thanks for stopping in to read this thread. I came back to my computer this morning to find it at that all familiar black screen with disk boot failure at the bottom.
So then I started doing the usual, slammed the vista dvd in and tried the start up repair, it does something then...
Hey guys, here's the story:
So I was using my computer this morning before class and I went off to class and came home later with it at that BSOD, UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME.
Now I knew this meant either the boot record or file was screwed up and or the hdd was failing or dead.
However...
Alright so I need to disable access to the task manager, how difficult is this to do? Can I restrict it through Vista or do I need a program like 1st security agent?
So I've been watching my sidebar recently after seeing my ram useage over 65%. My sidebar's been using excessive memory and I don't know if it's normal or not.
I'm aware of how Vista "uses" your memory now instead of just letting it sit there like Xp did and all that.
Anyway, If I close...
I have just the card only, nothing else. Will come shipped in bubble wrap, works great. I bought it for an experiment and it didn't work so live and learn.

Alright so I am or was having similar problems as cerebrex in his thread about Vista problems.
I was on my computer the other night when odd things started happening. Such as when I opened Foobar it said that foo_columns.dll had been removed, which I never did so I go to the folder and the...
Alright so I have the crysis single player installed and it was running perfectly yesterday.
Now I've got a new problem, whenever I move the mouse the game stutters.
If I move the mouse around constantly like in a circle the game will just freeze up until I stop, then it resumes normally...
Okay I've been running Vista Ultimate x64 since it was released on the same box and just the other day for no reason at all a little bubble popped up saying I need to re-activate windows. Well that would be great if I actually changed some hardware or something, but I didn't.
If I try and...
I have a friend who's going to purchase the D-Link DWA-552 adapter and DIR-655 Xtreme N router.
He's got Vista and I was wondering how well these parts worked with it? On D-Links site they have "BETA Vista" drivers but that's it, it doesn't say if they're for 32 bit or 64 bit.
Any...

I noticed that if you have multiple games installed from the same creator, only one will show up in the start menu.
For example, I have stalker and supreme commander installed and they're both from THQ, I can only see stalker in the start menu....
My friend was the one who pointed this...
I'm thinking of building an intel system and my RAM of choice was this stuff
or maybe this kit
How does that look? DDR2-800, that's what I require. Is there any other 2x2GB kits that I should be considering or does this one look good?
How much over stock rating do 4GB kits overclock? I know...

I've been a long time AMD fan and am just now fiddling with Intel's. One thing I really like about AMD overclocking atm is that you can use clockgen and overclock in windows to find instability, rather than rebooting for every few MHz up you want to go.
So my question is, is there a...
Alright so I've been a long time AMD fan and Intel's procs have been dominating for a while, so now I'm curious about how one of there systems would perform.
So here it is:
Motherboard
Processor
RAM
Total without shipping = $693
This just requires a new motherboard, CPU and RAM. I would...
Alright, I know this is an easy one and I've remedied the situation before by unplugging all HDDs except the one I was installing on.
So I've got my 150GB raptor with two partitions, and 2x320 Seagates, all SATA.
Formatted and partitioned the raptor then installed Vista, when I rebooted and...
So my friend's got this setup with some G.Skill PC2-5300 memory.
I've been over there overclocking it and I just can't seem to get my head around the divider system that Intel uses! :/
I'm from the AMD camp and have a solid knowledge of how they overclock and work, so I know of dividers...
So I'm overclocking an e6400 here and I'm just pushing the FSB up right now. I was wondering if there was significant performance hit just leaving the DDR-2 667 memory at stock.
Would there be a huge benefit by overclocking it? Sorry for the simple question.
So I've been searching and searching through all these boards and it came down to the Intel Bad Axe 2 or the Abit AW9D-MAX.
It seems the BX2 is the better board so I'm going with it.
My question is, I'm going to be pairing it with an E4300 Allendale CPU which has the 9x multiplier and...
Ok so I didn't expect this kind of performance out of my PC from this game until I tried the demo.
For the record I love this game and I'm buying it when it releases in the U.S. tomorrow.
My specs are in my sig but the relevant ones are:
Opteron 165 @ 2.8GHz
2GB G.Skill HZ PC4000

Alright so my copy of Vista is going to be here in a couple days. My windows drive right now is a 150GB raptor.
I've got it split into two partitions, 50GB for windows and 100GB for games.
With Vista I was thinking of changing this to 75GB windows 75GB games.
Now I know how to do...
Right now I have a Creative soundblaster audigy 2 zs, you all know the card.
I've heard that MS has disabled directsound in vista, does that mean that my sound card is now useless if I installed vista?
What's going to work and what's not going to work.
Somebody explain the situation to me...
I remeber reading that Vista was made to have a little restarts as possible. So that it would only restart if it really needed to for critical updates and such.
Is this true? Do you have to restart after installing drivers, how about normal applications?
Do you have to restart as much as...
First off, the more important question:
In my rig right now I have one 150GB raptor that holds windows/apps/games, and two 320GB seagates with music/pics and other media. All of them are currently formatted to the current windows XP file system NTFS. When I buy vista I'll format my raptor and...
So I'm going to be getting a laptop soon and I have a lot of media that I want stored on an external drive so it doesn't eat up the laptop's HDD.
I'd like a small like 2.5" external HDD that I could carry along in a laptop case and that's at least 80GB's. I'd prefer over 100GB but we'll see...
So I've been wondering this, do I need 2GB's of memory in a macbook? or would I be good with one.
Do you guys think 2GB's is too much for a laptop? I'm not going to be doing any hardcore apps or anything. Does 2GB take more battery life? Could I upgrade to 2GB's later on?
Ok so is it just me or do your "wingmen" in this game ALWAYS get in your way!?!
I HATE them, all the time whenever I take a turn they're always in font of me and they take the turn a LOT slower than you forcing you to slam into the back of them or turn into a wall.
then you have to listen...
