    DVD±RW drive stops responding

    I've got a Philips SPD2413P DVDRW drive on an MSI RS480M2 motherboard, and, for whatever reason, the drive stops responding after a short while. It will read discs fine and burn them after a reboot or after the device is disabled/enabled, but this is only a temporary fix. Has anyone ever seen...

    AIM Question

    I should have checked for a software forum. I didn't notice this one. Sorry. Is there any way to find out when you originally registered your screen name? I'm curious how old mine is.

    Kingdom Hearts 2: What is the title of the song played during the commercial?

    Trouble with Hauppauge TV-Tuner Card

    I tried all 3 with no luck. I had the same problem in every slot. I disabled all the non-essentials on the motherboard (firewire, com1, 2, and lpta ports, even secondary ide controller) and removed the sound card, but nothing has helped so far.

    What rank did you graduate high school with?

    Building a LAN Party System/PVR

    Ok, I'm heading off to college, so I'm planning to build a computer suited for a LAN party and as a PVR. Other than the LAN gaming, all my gaming will be done on another computer, so I shouldn't need too much computing power, other than the vid card. Here's what I have so far: Case/PSU...
