    IBM Thinkpad T43 + dual display?

    I'm thinking of getting an IBM Thinkpad T43 with the ATI x300 for graphics. Does anyone know if you can run a dual display set up with this laptop? Thanks.

    nvidia firewall & file sharing

    Before installing the nvidia firewall software on my computer, file sharing within my home network works fine; I can see all the computers in my "Entire Network". When I install the nvidia firewall and set it to MEDIUM, I can no longer see the other computers except this computer. I can't even...

    MSI K8N SLI Plat. & Venice 3200+

    OK I found where the problem was: the SLI card. I took it out just to look at it and I guess when I put it back it didn't make any connections. I took out the SLI card and the computer POSTs interestingly enough. Has anyone tried running this mobo without the SLI card? MSI should've thought...

    MSI K8N SLI Plat. & Venice 3200+

    I just got the MSI SLI motherboard, a Venice 3200+, and a pair of OCZ Gold 512MB sticks. When I tried to boot up the system for the first time, it doesn't post.. the D bracket2 indicator shows that it gets stuck during memory detection. Could this problem be because I'm using a Venice instead...

    Radeon 9600XT on Via KT133A

    My computer is ~4-5 years old: Abit KT7A mobo, Athlon XP 1800, Geforce2 GTS, etc. I'm thinking about ditching my Geforce2 GTS for a 9600XT but I've heard stories about the 9600 not playing well with Via chipsets like what I have, KT133A. Has anyone had any problems with a 9600, or any other...

    Burnproof usage

    Actually it looks like my DVR108 only supports burnproof for CDs, not DVDs. Can anyone confirm this? bacillus: Yes I am using DMA.

    Burnproof usage

    I see. So I guess burnproof works without you knowing it. Is there burnproof support for DVD media?

    Burnproof usage

    Yes I have enabled burnproof before burning. And isn't the whole point of burnproof is to be able to continue your burn after a buffer underrun...?

    Burnproof usage

    I usually use Nero and a couple of times I had buffer underruns. After failing, Nero spits out the disc with an error. Whenever I try to restart the same session Nero complains that the disc is not writable. How do I tell Nero to continue from the point where the buffer underrun occured? I...

    Hi, Thanks for replying. That crimp at Radioshack doesn't seem that bad. I'll check it out. Unfortunately my local RS doesn't have it so I may have to order it online :( I finally found the webpage where I got the idea of using those connectors I want...

    name this connector!

    I'm in the process of working on a LCD mod project and I'm looking for the name of this type of connector: http://individual.utoronto.ca/nauht/temp/connector.jpg It's used for a lot of computer components and for sure you've seen them before. These connectors are used to connect your...
