I have an employee who password protected his Personal Folder (.pst) in outlook and now when I try to restore it for him it keeps asking for a password, which he claims he never put in and has no idea of what the password could be. Is there anyway to override the password feature and restore...

If anyone could give me some sort of a clue on this topic it would help! I tried to install media player 10 and keep getting and error that installation could not complete. Then I go to Media Player 10 and it won't let me view the library at all. It sort of locks up on me. I tried to...

Definitely go with the 6600 GT. I have been playing half-life 2 pretty much flawlessy with the settings almost cranked up. It is an inexpensive card that you can't go wrong with!

Value select and Now I think it is fixed. I switched the RAM sticks and now it works great! I played Half-Life 2 for 3 hours with no crashes or anything. I am guessing the RAM was in the wrong slots or something, but people say it doesn't matter so I am kind of confused. Thanks for all of...

My temps are usually around 44 degrees Celcius. I have lots o fans in the case and it stays pretty cool. I am still working on the air flow but I am sure it isn't bad. I know that I sound like an idiot with this question, but this is the first time I have worked with Dual Channel RAM...

I would buy at least a PS with 420w with the 6800 GT in there. With everything that you are running you could fry a 350w. I have heard of it happening before.

Whoops I mean Thermaltake!

Nope, I got a 420W ANTEC PS. It is more then enough power for the system.

Where's a good place to get one of those? I have checked download.com and others, but I want to make sure I get a good one.

I know i sound like a newbie with computers, but I have never run a memtest. How do you do it?
