I had a similar issue, turned out to be a bad HDD, I don't want to assume your issue is the same, but for me it was. I repartitioned, reformatted and reinstalled the OS hoping it was software, but ran into the same issue. I Replaced the drive and never saw the issue again.

Thanks for the quick response. That solved it. While looking here & other places, it someone else mentioned issue is Media Center 64bit needs 64bit codecs. Windows media player is 32bit & the standard divx codex are 32bit. Dunno how true that is,, but your suggestion of just using Xvid...

Hello All, I am thoroughly confused, & looking for some help. When I try to play a video encoded with Divx under windows media player it plays fine. When I try to play the same file using "Windows Media Center" it says that I am missing a codec. So for now I am using Windows Media...

ive got VB.Net express & a beginner/intermediate idea of how to use it. If you Shoot me the code via PM or directly in the forums if there's room I can re-do for that. & no on the WOW thing, I am against botting on general principal & gave up on WOW long ago. This is just a personal project...

I need a program that will repeat a certain keystroke until I stop it, as if I had pressed the key over & over & over. I am not talking about a complicated macro & have used things like macro-express in the past. I really am looking for something simpler with a smaller memory footprint. I...

Im in the same boat. Ive been using Ghost for quite some time, but lately I havent been happy with it. Does trueimage have something similar to the dos or outside of Windows restore from a floppy/cd/whatever. Like ghost used to do so well? I really only want it to make image files of my...

I wonder if this has implications with regards to the people that have found ways around DRM using the hardware in/out to re-record info... Personally I pay for my music, & firmly believe artists have a right to be paid for thier work, but I hate all the DRM being shoved down our throats &...

I would suggest Shadowbane, but if you were complaining about getting ganked, then maybe this isnt such good advice.

I fell for the raid 0 trap back when the original raptors 36gb came out. After finding out that the real performance was 0 difference, I pulled one of the 36gb raptors & sold it to a friend. At least I got some of my money back. For your situation 1x 150gb would be what I recommend, simply...

Im running the G.Skill HZ set you have listed. I love it, absolutely no issues. I believe the difference in the 2 G.Skill sticks is simply a model change with the HZ being newer, but I am not 100% certian. For the corsair, one of the items you are paying for is "EPP" (an NVIDIA...

if its just the 2 wires comming out of a standard molex connector then yes, you could cut them, no problem. Then just make sure the ends are covered so they dont short agaist anything. I've never seen one like that, but I guess they make all kinds of stuff I havent seen. Regardless it...

I can tell you that my gaming clan has a member thats been trying to do this for some time with no luck. So my NO (I dont know of a good way) comes with about 6 months of frustrated trying.

The Stock HSF is not "GOOD" by any stretch of the immagination, but it is perfectly safe for your CPU Especially if you don't plan to overclock. 1. It will be louder than some of the recent aftermarket HSF units, but I doubt most people would notice the difference in actual use. 2. It...

Ok, I may be confused by what your describing, but are you saying your case fan is hardwired to your PSU? or??? In my case (Thermaltake Eureka) I Removed the case fan,, wich had a molex connector , & replaced it with another 120mm fan(without the annoying LED). The replacement fan also had a...
