    Front USB MOD guide

    Nice tutorial! You'd think one of these companies would MAKE something like this so you wouldn't have to mod it... yet I haven't seen anything that fits in the 3.5" bays as of yet. I bought the Antec Easy USB, which was really nice since they include a cable long enough to reach your...

    Panaflo 80mm Quiet Fans

    Did those come with molex connectors or are they just bare wire. Bare wire would be fine if you're running a fan bus but since I'm not, I'm curious. Can you even buy molex connectors if you have to wire it up yourself?

    Panaflo 80mm Quiet Fans

    man...I feel kinda ripped off. I had no idea you could get a case fan so cheap. I recently paid $10 for an OEM 80mm Sunon case fan. I do like it but I thought that was kinda spendy considering the little shop I bought it from didn't even want to give me screws for the thing and then when I...

    need your suggestions!! which printer for me???

    I was looking for the same thing. I ended up, after doing quite a bit of research, narrowing it down to the Canon S630 and the HP Photosmart 1115. The Canon is supposed to be better on ink and has seperate ink cartridges so I was certain this is the one I would go with. However, after seeing...

    Can't open sites with ? in the address

    Have you tried a mirror of your IE advanced settings with the machine that works to the one that doesn't? Seems that it should be a Javascript error or something but IE6 should have no probs with Javascript. Lemme know if you figure it out.

    fan wouldn't spin up

    I took apart my old mobo/CPU setup that my friend had built for me since I recently braved the world of DIY computer building. The board was a Baby AT Matsonic and had several small problems. I found that a jumper on the board was set for Slot 1 instead of Socket 370, which is what's on the...

    500 mhz Celeron mobo suggestions???

    Can anyone suggest a fair priced mobo for a 500 mhz Celeron. It will be going in an AT case. The mobo in this case now is a baby AT so I assume that I'll be looking for another baby AT b/c I'm not sure about the case-- I think it's unbranded. It has a 250W PSU if that makes any difference...

    My GF3 is making noises [UPDATE: Found source. Still need help]

    Sounds to me like you have the same exact problem that I had with the chipset fan on my mobo. See my site @ flywheel.cjb.net for my info on my situation. If you do end up replacing the fan and there's a heat sink under it on your card, the fan replacement should be rather simple. Make sure...

    Need advice on modification of USB Plug to fit Header on AK31A

    did you get it to work? I'm getting ready to do the same exact thing and was looking at buying something like this but I was afraid the connectors wouldn't match up to the mobo headers. What kind of USB front panel did you end up getting?

    Best digital camera's under $500 - your opinion..

    I've done a lot of research on this...and it seems to me that either the Olympus 3040 or the Kodak 3900 are about the best cameras in that price range if you want a 3.1 megapixel. I've read a lot of good things about Canon's new G2, I think is the model...but it's pretty spendy. The Kodak is...
