I've used Newegg for a few thousand in purchases and haven't had a problem with the service... yet. They're the first to get my recommendation. Next on my list is Mwave. They may be a little more expensive, but their service is good and their shipping is very quick.

Please tell me where to get this wonder-patch. I've used George's (was that his name) PCI latency patch, but I haven't seen anything official. The problem is still quite noticeable for me as I have a RAID 0 array on a PCI controller. As I understood it, the flaw affected the entire PCI bus...

I won't buy one at the current price. Once the price goes down a little, I'd buy it just for Halo. I've had SO much fun playing that on a friend's.

Well, in light of this finding, I just busted out HDTach and Sandra - both were bad. Sandra scored my RAID array (using PCI Promise FastTrak100 controller) 10000 points below their standard for an ATA100 RAID 0 array. HDTach's graph spiked all over the damn place. Will they be able to fix...

Ha! Hardly, but I wish. It's gonna be a Christmas present. I've started doing a lot more work on my computer and I think an LCD would work a lot better than the Sony for office apps. It'd be great if I could do ll my gaming on it, too. I guess it has to scale down to 1024x768, but how well...

I've got an urge to buy an LCD. I have a Sony G400 that has to go in for repairs, so a nice 17.4" LCD would do good as a replacement while the Sony's gone. I really have no desire to carry the G400 to college with me next year, either... I was looking around and saw several good reviews of...

What's the best blade to use with a jigsaw? I bought a fine tooth blade that was intended for use on thick metals and hacked an old case up for practice. I don't like the way it cut. It takes forever and it's kinda messy. Curves were really hard to cut, too. I want a window, but I don't...

Definitely go with seperates. The IDQs are awesome, but a little pricey. I went with the DEI Neodymium's, and I couldn't be happier.

I set Windows 98 to shut off the monitor after 15 mins.

Any more ideas? :confused: Please?

I have the most recent driver for the G400. Before, I was using an ADI MicroScan 6p (also with the correct drivers), and the computer did the same thing. I've also tried several 15" monitors I have laying around. It's not the monitor, but thanks anyway. :(

HELP! I'd like to leave my computer on most of the time, but I can't. I've got it set to turn off the monitor after 15 mins of inactivity. Every time I try to wake it up, it freezes. The monitor will come back on, but it only displays random vertical lines. Where should I start to fix this...
