    PS2 and 9800Pro ?

    I have a 9800Pro and I was wondering if I could use this to connect my PS2 to my computer and play on my monitor. The 9800pro has a S-Video cable outlet so I'm wondering if I may need a specific program or something to run the PS2 onto my monitor. Anyone have any ideas?

    building comp- help please!

    I suggest the Kingwin Case KT-424. I just bought one and I really like it. It's very very similar to the Lian Li one you looked at, but it's like $30 cheaper and has a bunch of extra stuff.

    Orange cathodes?

    Does anyone know where they sell the orange cold cathode lights? I have 2 orange LED fans and would like a cathode light to go with it but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Do they even exist? The closest thing I've been able to find are the LED lazer lights... Thanks in advance.

    computer crash?

    I have just opened up my case to check my installation, and noticed that my heatsink is so large that it actually sits up on top of the part of the CPU input device of the motherboard. So the heatsink is at an angle, not completely flat on my CPU, could this be the problem? If so, is there some...

    I did not get chance to do what you suggested, but my computer did crash again and this time it was simply when I was surfing.
