    OneNote help needed

    Hmm that would probably work OK. I guess I was hunting too hard for a way to enter the notes directly when there is a simple alternative

    OneNote help needed

    I am still learning how to use OneNote, I got the trial on my new notebook and ended up getting a full version of Office 2007. So far it is a great program for college, except for one problem. My notes for my programming class get all messed up because of the autocorrect options. Java doesn't...

    Notebook battery life with different OS

    I finally got tired of debating over budget laptops and purchased this one . I didn't require a powerful machine, my desktop handles that role, just something portable to take to campus for basic usage, and this one had good features for the money. I have been pretty happy with it for the most...

    *** Official Gigabyte P965-DS3 Thread ***

    Same here, it doesn't matter what I set the IRQ to in BIOS, windows ignores it and puts the card on IRQ 18 anyhow. I can try any open IRQ and get the same result, Xfi on IRQ 18.

    Retail copy of MS Operating systems (vista) not transferable?

    Hmm if this doesn't change I won't spend a penny on Vista until there is a workaround, what a bunch of BS. I change a major part of my system at least every 3 months, and reinstall my OS even more frequently. If I can't get it free through the university I won't be getting it at all, I'm not...

    I just tried Windows Vista for first time.

    Seems like things should be straightened out good enough by June when the trial license wears off ;) I have been an early adopter too often and paid for it in frustration, but I doubt it is gonna stop me from getting Vista. However, the looming DRM crap also makes it appear likely that I will...

    I <3 my MX1000, awesome mouse. I will never, ever understand how people can put up with a wired mouse after using a good wireless mouse, its like going back to 56k from broadband

    Short mounting depth DVD drive?

    I'm looking for the shortest mounting depth DVD drive that I can find, I believe the Pioneer drive I have is around 180mm, which is way too long. My top-mounted triple 120mm radiator causes me to lose the top two drive bays. If I can find one short enough I will be able to reclaim at least one...

    Think this is a mobo issue...

    I had a ton of problems getting my SATA drives to be recognized in Windows also. I ended up slipstreaming all the ULI drivers into a fresh XP install disk. I also had to change my 2 drives to port 1 and port 3 to run normal (not in RAID). 1 & 2 work fine in RAID. This board shouldn't require...

    Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe anyone have one

    :disgust: I am having a horrible time getting this board set up. I figured I could try this board while my DFI Expert is going through the RMA process, but I can't even get it stable to install XP. This board just seems rushed to market and unfinished. I could run prime stable at 2.85 with...
