Hah nevermind I freaked out. I forgot I unplugged the 4 pin 12V to install that monster 8800 and I didnt plug it back in. And the power supply wasnt all the way into the motherboard :( Up and running now :)

I was just confused...I didnt need the adapters once I actually took the time to find the PCIe connectors from my power supply. Thanks though :)

Hello, I just got done building my new computer. Short story is, I turned it on, the computer turns on, the monitor does not. If I unplug the monitor, I get the "No signal" error on the monitor, and if I plug it back in it goes away. But I get no startup video or anything. I have an...

Its me again ;) Im looking at the 8800GTX here. On the card it places to hook 6-pin connectors. With the vid card came 2 wires, each with 6 pin connectors on one end, and then splits into 2 power supply connectors (each). I have to plug it into my power supply 4 times? Or something I do not...

I should have made both questions one thread but I forgot this one. I just bought Corsair DDR2 PC6400C4 CL4-4-4-12 800Mhz. My question involves Dual Channel DDR2. Im mostly not sure what it is :) I have 2 sticks (1 gig each), and the manual says something about making sure both sticks are in...

Greetings, Im home for break and trying to use my parents computer, and I brought my hard drive with me (dont ask!). Anyways, Im trying to put my HD in my parents computer, but I cannot get it to work. I have both HDs on the primary IDE channel. I have both HD jumpers set as "cable...

Hmm :/ Perhaps il try to find a shorter PSU, I would hate to remove a fan.

Does anyone have the Antec P180: http://shop1.outpost.com/product/4843800 With the PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610W EPS12V Power Supply: http://shop1.outpost.com/product/4978821 I wanted to ensure that not only the power supply fit fine, but the cords were long enough. If not, a...

I've been using a thumb trackball mouse myself for a rather long time.

Was wondering if someone had the Antec Performance I P180 case and had any issues with getting the 8800GTX card to fit properly?

Well I have room for speakers in the front and behind me. I dont have room on the sides, at least not directly. I can go about 45 degrees to the side. The speakers are relatively cheap, and im pretty big on good sound. Ive been considering moving my computer desk to take advantage of the...

Hello, I had a thread where I planned on building a new machine. I have a couple more quick questions. I plan on purchasing the 8800GTX/GTS (not sure what the diff is off the top of my head). Anywho, I originally planned on going for the following for a mobo: EVGA NVIDIA® nForce? 680i...
