    My primary display is a Sharp Aquos 32" 1080p, and I'm using a Dell 2407 as my secondary. The issue is while the Sharp does 1920x1080, the Dell will only let me choose 1680x1050 as highest. Before I used the Dell as my primary monitor and it did 1920x1200 fine, I was also using a 17" monitor...

    Good Benchmarks?

    The only benchmark I know how to run is 3dmark2003. I was wondering if there is a webpage where Anandtech explains how you can run the benchmarks that they run for their reviews on your own machine. I.e. If I download Unreal2k3 or Serious Sam2 demo, how do I run a benchmark so that I can...

    ATI RADEON 9700 PRO "Game Gamma"

    Can anyone tell me how this works? I adjust it and it does nothing at all for games...no change in the brightness. I ask because my monitor is really dark and the darkness can be a problem in certain games.

    Does the A7V266 support Barton CPUs?

    Hello, I was wondering if the Asus A7V266 motherboard will support a Barton CPU. If not, then what is the highest CPU it will support. Also, If I get a Barton CPU, should I go for the KT400 Chipset or KT333?

    Windows 98 doesn't recognize my hard drive!

    Hi, I have an Asus A7V266-E motherboard, on IDE1 I have a maxtor 20GB hard drive on Master, with an 80GB hard drive on Slave. The Bios recognizes both, but Windows only sees the 20GB drive. On IDE2 I have a CD-R and DVD-Rom. Does anybody have any ideas?
