    Recovering data from a damage hard drive

    Interesting about the copying the disk image to another drive. I got the hard drive room to do it. I was wondering what applications would I use for this? Also, a spare sata cable is arriving today so I should be able to work on this during the weekend. Thanks for the advice!

    Recovering data from a damage hard drive

    So, I have a hard drive that is failing. It was in a laptop, and I would be running windows and the computer would completely stop responding and freeze. The hard drive indicator light would cut out. The only option at that point was to cut the power. There are photos from traveling on the drive...

    Radeon HD 7950 Owner's Thread

    I am considering getting this card, and I was wondering about the 6+8 pcie power plugs. Is it a case that all new ones purchased are built with this, or is it more of a crap shoot?

    Laptop Stops Responding

    So, I own a lenovo thinkpad t60 that is a bit old. It still works well enough, except I am having hard drive issues. It is also out of warranty. Anyway, I dropped it about a foot in January, and was having issues where the laptop would stop responding. I would be using the internet, etc, and...

    Deus Ex: Human Revolution

    I'm running the game on my system labeled here. It is running better for me than Farcry 2 and Dragon Age Origins. Honestly, I am quite surprised at how well it runs. I'm not sure what fps I am getting, but it looks smoother than other stuff. Its mostly in big outdoor areas that performance lags...

    Deus Ex: Human Revolution

    I used a stun gun and hit him in the face repeatedly with a pistol. He ended up killing himself by throwing grenades on a gas tank he was next to.

    Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 75% Off on Steam

    I got a quick question. When I did my play through, a ton of the voices sounded like they were echoing. I think LaCroix had it the worst. Is that intentional, or was it a bug? It didn't seem to cause crashing, it was just kind of strange to me.

    Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 75% Off on Steam

    I loved this game. I got during a steam Halloween sale a few years ago. It's tons of fun, but you can definitely see the where the developers rushed stuff. Earlier missions were more objective/social based, and the end missions started becoming tedious with a lot of combat. Plus the bugs.

    League of Legends - F2P MOBA (like DOTA) part 2

    Leona buffs sound good. I got her but havent used her much. Her kit is fun, but it felt like she needed a little more damage to be a bigger threat and get focused more. Plus once she uses her skills, she doesn't have much to do.

    Quick ram question

    I'm running the 64 bit version of windows 7, so addressability isnt an issue. I'm mostly curious about mixing single channel and dual channel, and if the performance benefits of 3 vs 5 gb. I'd like to upgrade the system a bit, and this pretty much the last thing I can do without replacing a ton...

    Quick ram question

    On my desktop, I had 2 gb of ram. One of the sticks went bad, and now I need more memory. I got a 1gb stick in it now, so I am debating between getting another 2gb kit or a 4gb kit, leaving me with 3 or 5 gb of ram. Would I be able to run two sticks in dual channel, and other just on its own...
