    Analyzing Dell SMBIOS thermal control...

    A little primer to the problem that is driving me nuts. The Dell Inspiron 9100/XPS laptops have a problem with the thermal controller, called the SMBIOS. The problem is that the GPU fan suddenly spins at full speed and the GPU throttles back. Hitting the key combination, (Function)FN+Z...

    2005FPW vs. 2405FPW - 2005FPW wins.

    I wish I could afford a Dell 2405FPW. *drools* I already have my 15.4" laptop at 1920x1200.

    Simple Laptop Dual Monitor Support?

    I figured out a solution. ATI's control panel actually has a decent profile manager. Not automatic, but I only have to press one of the two hotkeys I assigned to switch from laptop mode to desktop mode. It took a little work to get everything just right, but works every time after the profile...

    Simple Laptop Dual Monitor Support?

    I only need one monitor at a time. ;) The other problem I encountered is if I close the laptop, the CRT becomes the primary monitor.

    Simple Laptop Dual Monitor Support?

    My laptop, Dell Inspiron XPS, always runs the LCD at 1920x1200.(8:5 aspect) This is fine. I'm planning on ditching my desktop and using my CRT as a monitor for my laptop in mirror mode. When I plug it in though, I can't set it higher than 1280x1024. I did manage to get PowerStrip to force...

    Adding files to Windows XP install CD(Sil3114 SATA RAID drivers)

    Anyone know how to add files into the Windows XP installation CD? I know you can do that with SP1a/SP2. The problem is that the installer *REQUIRES* the Sil3114 SATA drivers to be installed from the obselete floppy drive. I don't have a working floppy drive. Is it possible to put the Sil3114...

    FS/T: Slimline socket 370 "Single Board Computer" (almost as small as mini-ITX)

    Mini-ITX actually. I already have a PSU compatible with EPIA boards, but I thought this might be worth the shot if I didn't find an EPIA. ;)

    Need a general/photo printer for Christmas gift!

    Alright, I have one of those great dads that loves electronics. I want to buy him a nice printer for Christmas. (Yes, I know its a little late...) He is a business man, so he likes to print out documents in full color. I'm looking for a printer that does fast black printing, acceptable...
