    Alternative to the LP2475w?

    Hey guys, I'm thinking of purchasing a new 24" WS LCD and was wondering if anyone could offer their advice for my needs. I'm looking to replace my first gen 20" WS monitor, the Dell 2005FPW. It's a 2005 S-IPS panel with poor ghosting (~12-16ms response), and horrible color accuracy (reds and...

    Problem with clicking on external links in IE & Firefox

    UPDATE! The culprit of my problem, and apparently various others, lies in Creative's SoundBlaster drivers! Apparently the file "DLLML.EXE," which runs at startup causes the leaks. Read more here! http://forums.creative.com/cre..._date_ascending&page=6

    Problem with clicking on external links in IE & Firefox

    Tried to no avail. I've also tried a Windows Repair and that didn't do the trick. WTH?!

    Problem with clicking on external links in IE & Firefox

    It seems that recently I've been having trouble clicking on external links with Firefox 2.0.0.11 and Internet Explorer 6. Basically meaning, whenever I go to click on a link in AIM, Xfire, or opening up a *.htm file on my HDD, whether Firefox or IE is my default browser, either will take...

    Why do Nvidia custom resolutions not work?

    Hi Sirjonk, I'm stuck too as I've just upgraded from a 7800GT to an 8800GT and PowerStrip is no longer an option (the 8 series is not supported for some strange reason). So I figure this is my last and only alternative. I'm using the newest ForceWare drivers 169.21 and do not see "Manage...

    Gigabyte GA-DS3L BIOS settings for newbies

    jjz, thanks for the tip! As I suspected, the RAM's timings were 5-5-5-15. I have sinced changed them to what I *THOUGHT* was the stock speed of 4-4-4-12. Ran mem test up to 900% (over an hour) and zero errors. So far so good!

    Gigabyte GA-DS3L BIOS settings for newbies

    Hey there. Got everything installed the other night and runs smooth! CPU & Sys Idle around 31-35 C w/ everything on stock. Only thing I'm not seeing in BIOS (version F5) are the specific memory timings (CAS Latency Time 5 DRAM RAS# to CAS# 5, etc.). And under CPU-Z, it doesn't list any info...

    Gigabyte GA-DS3L BIOS settings for newbies

    Thanks for the reply, guys. EvixKeth, hopefully you are right! That would save me a headache, or 2 lol! So what specific steps did you take once BIOS booted up? Did you mess w/ your RAM timings as Regalk speaks of? Or did you already move onto formatting your HDD's, then installing your OS...

    Gigabyte GA-DS3L BIOS settings for newbies

    Hey Regalk, thanks for posting this! Wow, talk about perfect timing! I just purchased a completely new Intel build w/ this MoBo as the centerpiece, which should be arriving any day now. I've only fiddled around through BIOS in the past making simple settings changes, and have never built a...

    New IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0 w/IntelliPoint 6.0

    Hey Nocturnal, as I replied to you on the gotfrag hardware forums, and to those who might also be experiencing problems, the solution is simple: just go into your CTL+ALT+DEL panel, go to "Processes," click on "ipoint.exe" and "End Process." To disable it from starting up ever again w/ Windows...

    Windows XP and hard-drives greater than 127GB

    Hey ScrewFace, I'm stuck in the same boat (WD2000JB) and see that Windows recognizes the remaining space as unallocated. Which fix on the website did you download? And lastly, did you have to reformat the drive?
