Hey everyone. I'm having trouble connecting to the internet on my notebook. I have an Intl PRO/Wireless 2200BG NIC. I can connect to my school's wireless network. However, I can never get to the point where I can actually logon through the Cisco VPN version 4.0.4 (B). I keep getting the...

I have an old Enermax that makes rattling noises that I just replaced over the summer. I'll try it when I get my replacement parts from Newegg. Can Newegg send replacements of CPU's beyond their 7 day return window for CPUs? I mean, will they honor a replacement, if say I send back my PSU for...

Hey guys, I have had the same problem twice. I thought I may have gotten a little sloppy with the Arctic Silver 5 on a 2500+... twice. If it is the PSU that is the problem, does that mean that the PSU is defective? or does it mean it isn't supported by the board? I tried to put together...

Is that with Arctic Silver? I think I have a stash of AS2 somewhere.

Hi guys I'm planning on purchasing an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe with an AMD Athlon XP 2500+ and I don't plan to overclock. What kind of memory shoud I get to get the most out of the system? Should I buy 2 DIMM's? Or a single stick? How about PC3200 over PC2700? Meatbomb

Has anyone tried a GC68 on a 2500+ non o/c? I'm thinking of upgrading from my Duron 1.3 and old ECS K7S5A to something better but I don't really want to spend a fortune on a new HSF. meatbomb

Ah 5:4. It all makes sense now. Thanks! So these wallpapers made for 1024x768 would be scaled properly on this LCD at 1280x1024?

Hey guys Which resolution should I use for games? 1280x1024 makes sense for the desktop, but for games, does it stretch out the image? Or should I play games on 1280x960? I have an NEC MultiSync LCD1760NX by the way with a native res of 1280x1024. Thanks!

Hey all, I'm quite confused with all these DVI cables. I just got an NEC MultiSync LCD1760NX and I want to get a DVI cable for it. Supposedly it only supports DVI-D. Thus, which should I get, a Single Link DVI-D cable or a Dual Link DVI-D cable? Belkin's website says the Dual Link is for...

Hey guys, thanks for the info. I'm looking at an Asus V8420S on Newegg for $145 with 3.3ns memory and the V9280TD for $149, Gainward's 650-8X XPs (both the non-golden sample and the golden sample, $132 and $148 respectively). So from what I have read, the AGP 8x is, at this point in time...

Hey guys, I'm planning on upgrading my video card... an old ASUS GeForce 256 w/ 32MB SDR. Which card (TI4200, TI4800SE, or Radeon 9600, or Radeon 9600 Pro) has the biggest bang for around 150 bucks? I'm particularly running Raven Shield on a GeForce 256 and at this point anything will be a...

Is it possible to use the Asus Live Capture software with another video card from a different company, namely a Gainward GeForce2 Ti/500 XP? Thanks.

Hi I was wondering if an onboard LAN, such as the onboard 10/100 on the ECS K7S5A, could render my 3Com 3C905B-TX obsolete. Which would have the lowest CPU usage and best performance? If my 3Com is still better, should I disable the onboard LAN and use my PCI card? Thanks
