I have lost two CD-ROMS over about the last year and a half to the same problem. The CD ROM will stop recognizing CD's when a CD is inserted. I just keep getting an INSERT CD message even when a CD is in the drive. The latest drive was an ACER. The other drive was some off-brand, don't remember...

OK. Picked up an Albatron motherboard. Intel 845PE chipset. Installed it using a GEFORCE2-MX AGP video card. System will not power up with the card in the AGP slot. When I remove the card, system powers up. Motherboard manual says I need a 1.5v AGP card and the motherboard is protected against...

egghead.com has some good deals on monitors. I really like their flat rate shipping of $6.95! dark_sith

Yep. Well, if you go by the product number listed on mixpc's site, 032-A4-NV15-01, and cross reference it on evga.com's site, it's a GTS. So your right, a decent price, but I could get the MSI geforce2 GTS from newegg for 128.00 (Free shipping). And with shipping, the card at mixpc comes to...

Also, I have been told that the MX will not really take full advantage my 1 ghz system in gamming. I have been told if I can't get at least a Geforce2 GTS or PRO and I'm going with the MX, that I might as well just get an AMD Duron. So now I'm a little confused. I really want to go with at least...

nobody has an evga huh? ok... forget the brand name... since they are offering a Geforce2 PRO card for that price, seems like a real good deal. The benchmarks I've seen here on AnandTech on the PRO vs. the MX are pretty decent. An MX runs about $80-90. Will I get a pretty good boost in...

eVGA Geforce2 Pro w/TV out 32MB DDR mixpc.com has this card at $129. I am building a new system and was going to go with a Geforce2 MX card, but stumbled across this. The price is good, but is the card? Anybody use evga cards? Looks like they are pretty generic, but just wondering if someone...

I too am looking at the Geforce2 MX card. I am in the process of putting together a 1 ghz Athlon system. I have been told that the MX will not really take full advantage my 1 ghz system in gamming.... but I can't afford a Geforce2 GTS. I have been told if I can't get at least a Geforce2 GTS and...

Hello. I recently built a system using a Shuttle AK12 with the VIA KT133 chipset. I also have a Soundblaster LIVE value. This has been very frustrating. When trying to load games with the Soundblaster LIVE the computer would freeze, or reboot during the install process. Finally got a couple of...
