~400-600 mb

I did try to reinstall win2003 on my desktop computer, which is a 3500+ AMD with 1 gbyte RAM, with the exact same issue. My 3500+ computer even has 8 built in SATA connectors and i tried spreading the drives over those and no diffrence. Good write speeds for about 5 seconds, then everything...

My computer setup: AMD XP1600 Socket A Abit KG-7 768 MB ram 1x120gb IDE 4x320gb SATA PCI SiI3114 Sata Controler Windows 2003 The problem: I have the 4x320gb disks set up in a windows 2003 software raid-5 setup, which is extremely slow. It starts off at ~20mbyte/sec and after about...

Me and 2 of my friends are having this problem, we all live in europe and use PAL-B system here.. I'm using latest Omega drivers for my radeon and the other two are using factory default drivers... None of us can set the tv signal to composite or SVHS manually, which is usually possible on...

btw i wanna make one thing clear.. this laptop does not have a cover like any other laptop i've ever seen. It's not plastic, and it feels a bit "furry" to be honest :) That's why i'm asking specificly :)

I love every aspect of my new T42 except the cover. I like the finish and everything but it's so easy to get fingerprints or something on it and they are damn hard to get off! anyone know how i can clean it? I think it's made out of magnesium/titanium or somehting like that just a wet cloth...

Well i had the same thing happen to me, on a HP laptop.. new LCD would cost me $1200 (i live in iceland).. after a few weeks of not using it at all i came up with a brilliant idea.. i have a 29" tv in my room and i hooked my laptop to it via tv out and bought a used IR keyboard with a built in...

heh i JUST found that :) thanks though

Ok i just got a brand new IBM Thinkpad T42.. Specs: 1.7 ghz dothan 512mb ddr ram 64mb Radeon 9600 15" 1400*1050 monitor etc.. :o Anyway, i have some questions regarding it.. 1) When i play doom 3 (only game i've installed so far but i imagine it's the same for all games) at resolution less...

I will be in about 2 hours! going to pick up my new T42 now :> 1,7 ghz dothan radeon 9600 64mb 512mb ram 15" monitor can't wait :> allthough i wasn't really expecting to be able to run d3 on it, but it would be an added bonus, for sure!

Anyone have a link to a comparision of these 3 types or something similar? or knows first hand?

i play SWG and i can tell you that it's REALLY, and i mean REALLY memory intensive, upgraidng to 1gb will improve it ALOT

heh.. never mind i just found out that the T line has 9600 graphics, i always went for the R in the customizer because it says "The new ThinkPad R51 is available with outstanding 3D graphics performance" under it.. kind of misleading

I'm getting a laptop in July, and i've narrowed it down to 2 choices.. Dell and IBM This is because i don't live in the USA but i'm buying it off the internet and shipping it to my friend that lives in the US who is coming to visit me in August. So i'll need international warranty that both...

Ok, i don't know what these cars cost in the US/UK but i live in iceland and the pricing here counts hehe.. Here, these 2 cards costs roughly the same and the 9800pro costs almost 2x more And i'm looking to upgrade my GF4 TI4200 and i think this jump will be large enough to notice (i play Star...
