Ok, I got conflicting responses; Alkemyst said "The drive should have a termination jumper" but Bacillus said "using a U160 hdd then you'll have to put an active terminator at the end of the cable as the hdd itself will not have a termination jumper! " I found this on IBM's site "Since LVD...

Thanks for the quick, consice response. I'm one step closer to being up and running.

I have recently Bought a SCSI hard drive set-up, and am now confused about SCSI termination. I have googled on it but am still wondering. Is it neccesary to ALWAYS terminate the scsi bus? I am only planning on using one drive on a single channel so do I need to buy a cable w/ 3 connectors and...

I used some vinyl dye i bought from Pep Boys, it looks great. the only problem i had was that it scratches off somewhat easier than I would like. I wound up putting an acrylic clearcoat on after to fix it.

Putting my card in the freezer wasn't quite enough, I had to the turn a can of compressed air upside down and spray the heat sink to freeze it some more. Then a careful twisting motion should do the trick.

zephyrprime, Thanks. It worked like a charm, I can't believe I didn't think of it my self.

I am trying to run an old procomm plus v2 for dos on a win98 533mhz system and I am getting a runtime error. From what I have read, there is some sort of timing dependant code that doesn't like to work with faster CPUs. I has alsofrom symantics site I have also read that a patch is available...

I think anonamizer is a proxy server. There is free proxy software available such as proxomitron, but I don't think that paticular one will run as a remote server. You should be able to find a free proxy program for both windows and linux that will do what you want.

Does anyone make an FM tuner PCI card? Not a TV/FM combo, but just an FM radio card?

DrVos I now use Arctic Alumina epoxy, the non-conductive cousin of Arctic silver, it has been working just fine for 2 months now.

I bought a can of spray on rubber liner, like the stuff in truck beds, and covered the inside of my case. It helped a some with quieting things like the hard drives and CPU fan, but the fans that are mounted to a hole in the case can still be heard.

I noticed many people were recomending the Zalman heat sinks, and I would agree but DO NOT use the epoxy that comes with it. I put this epoxy on my northbridge, gpu and ramchips, THEY ALL FELL OFF IN 2 WEEKS. Note: Yes, I have used various epoxies before.

Thanks nothingman that is the xp version of the program I am looking, for I'm sure I'll wind up using it. The new version doesn't seem to have as many variables to monitor and looks rather bloated. The 98 version was just a couple of clean line graphs that i ran at startup and docked at the...

I have been missing a little program from win98 ever since i moved to win xp pro. its called system monitor , and it's in C:windows/sysmon.exe . I know there are other monitoring programs out there but the ones i have tried juist aren't what I want. This one had line graphs for just about...
