    WINXP: Removing Intel Application Accelerator causes immediate blue screen on boot up

    Don't remove the Intel Application Accelerator after you are done re-installing? :) If you're crashing on bootup in Safe Mode, sounds like Repair the OS time to me.

    Future guns, what's after the Rail Gun in terms of projectiles?

    I'd argue this point entirely, but this is a technical forum. I couldn't disagree more and in recent warfare (Somalia, Yugoslavia and Iraq) at no point was the "amount" of our attacks questioned, but the preciseness of our attacks. We haven't even remotely been challenged in the "amount" realm...

    Future guns, what's after the Rail Gun in terms of projectiles?

    I don't know "what" we would shoot at with a rail gun, but the way warfare works today it's more about precision than actual power. Advanced laser systems seem to be the way to go which will allow us to more accurately strike targets that are in highly civilian populated areas. I think we all...

    Ok so we know the slot is getting power so that's good. I think you're looking at only the card itself, the Video cable or the monitor. If you have a second machine, see if you can test each one of the three individually until you can narrow down the problem. Good luck.

    Cat5 splitting questions, again

    Agreed, getting a hub or switch is definitely a better idea then playing with the wiring.

    Just in case it was packaged incorrectly after pre-package testing. No beep codes to me indicates that the video card still might not be seated properly, is defective or your AGP slot is bad. You're getting power everywhere else so its not PS or mobo related (other that the actual slot which...
