    Does Kingston HyperX DDR have problems running in Dual DDR Config?

    I'm running two 512MB CAS2 HyperX DDR400 sticks in an ASUS P4C800. Fabulous memory, great price, and overclockable too! BTW, my rig has a P4 2.4B (533) @ 3.06GHz (680) and the RAM is at 425 MHz (850 MHz DDR) CAS2.5. Bill

    SACD or HDCD? Which CD player to grab?

    Sony supports SACD, but HDCD might be more established? Any audiophiles out there...? Bill

    Anybody running AutoCAD 2002 with WinXP HOME?

    AutoDesk claims incompatability with HOME only. I've used it with XP Pro with no issues, but I have a client that wants 18 boxes loaded with XP home and ACAD 2002... Bill

    Anyone have any suggestions? I have 1036 Lotus files to convert and my wrist will fall off if I do that manually... Bill

    Making 3DMark99Max work in WinXP...

    Anybody successful at this? I've tried various "compatibility" modes and all I keep getting is "please install DirectX 6.1." Ideas? Bill

    where to buy thermal sensors (for mb's) and 2-pin digital audio cables?

    Did you know that on newer desktop systems you can add an IRDA module? I found the Asus version (IRM100) but am having problems locating dealers. Also, since digital inputs on sounds cards are everywhere, I wanted to know where people grab the two conductor cable that connects to those largely...

    Where can you view Scandisk results in XP?

    Isn't there some kind of log file generated? Where does XP put it and what do you need to view it? Bill

    Possible major bug in Leadtek ti-500 cards...

    I have been attempting to purchase 2 of these monsters and for the third time, I've cancelled my order. Every online reseller says the same thing, "We've sent our entire shipment of these cards back to Leadtek and they are looking into it." Also, after searching Pricewatch and zooming to any...

    Will a GF2 MX400 work in an old 440BX MB?

    How about a GF2 GTS? Anyone using these configurations? I know that they could only run in 2X rather than 4X, but that's fine with me for the time being. Bill

    Where can you get Pentium 4's with a D0 stepping?

    In looking through Intel's P4 s-spec guide, it seems clear that a P4 1.6Ghz should be able to hit 2.0+ GHz with ease. A P4 1.6 O/C'ed to 2.1 GHz with a P4T-E seems very tempting.... Bill

    windows xp

    Welp, I think that the "clean" desktop is a plus. Also, RC1 appears to be extremely stable. Bill

    How do you stream video through a router?

    So I take it that W9X can't do it. It'll have to be W2K, NT4.0, etc. Oh, the last dot quad has somewhat of an extra zero in it. Of course, when it's entered, it'll be just 50, not 050. Bill

    How do you stream video through a router?

    If the client machine is at 192.168.100.50 and the router changes it to 65.24.239.34, how do you get people to "hop" onto the stream? Where is it exactly? Both of those IP's get no results with Windows Media Encoder. Bill
