    Ok to take off my undercarriage plastic cover?

    Old topic but yeah, I was thinking on doing the same. It's easier to perform some service, especially on car models where oil filter is hidden way beneath it all, typically on V engines. Some say aerodynamics are compromised badly from removing the splash tray, but just as many people say this...

    Best way to chase down an exhaust leak?

    Eric The Car Guy suggested blocking the pipe with a rag ( ) but I'm afraid by doing so I could hurt my engine. What do you guys think? Skickat från min ONEPLUS A5010 via Tapatalk

    FLAC or ALAC

    FLAC, as a matter of principle. Simply put, I don't like Apple stuff.

    Graphics cards with fans that spins only when needed!

    Hi guys! Since I seldom play games, and mostly use my desktop for regular office stuff, web browsing, and also as HTPC, I've always bought entry-level graphics cards not because of their cheap price tag but just because they are the only one that are 100% (fan-less) silent. I've always been...

    Any difference between Linksys E4200 V1 and V2

    Not the most recent thread, I know. However, if someone is wondering between these two and spots this thread I think one notable difference should be mentioned; v1 is Broadcom-based and can be flashed with Tomato or DD-WRT, whereas v2 is Marvell-based, which (this far) is not supported by any...

    Old SB Audigy vs Onboard Audio

    Wow! The vague buzz/noise suddenly disappeared simply as I muted "Line-In". Strange, huh? My integrated VIA audio controller doesn't produce such artifacts even though all "levers" are activated and on max. Although, what's the meaning of having a Line-In lever on the "Output" side of...

    Old SB Audigy vs Onboard Audio

    Thanks for your heads-up Scholzpdx! :) The SB Audigy card is now smoothly installed on a PCI slot, and its working really nice. Only thing that bugs me (just a little a bit) is some sort of static noise that I've come across. If I plug my earphones into the integrated audio chip and pull all...

    Old SB Audigy vs Onboard Audio

    Guys. First off, let my say that I'm really pleased by the fact that this topic was brought up to begin with. Now, after a couple of month without new entries, I take the liberty of bumping this thread with my own experience slash situation. Here's my deal. I have a motherboard with an...

    Vista: Disabling "Restart your computer to finish installing important updates"

    Still no new solution on this one, to get rid of the annoying reminder? Windows 7 is where the situation is currently at.
