hmm, so what should I do then? Use no security at all? I think I've got it working again to where I don't have to broadcast the SSID. If I don't broadcast it, and don't tell anyone what it is - could someone still find it and connect?

Recently I purchased a Lynksys Wireless B Broadband Router (BEFW11S4) and matching Lynksys 'B' PCMCIA card for my laptop. When I first hooked the network a week or so ago everything worked like a charm - the laptop saw my network and all was good. This evening I was unable to see the network...

I bought this two weeks ago for my PC and it's great. That is not to say that the Seagate isn't a good drive as well, but I can say the WD is for sure.

Thanks, I never even noticed the networking forum before - my apologies. So, is this what you are referring to? http://www.linksys.com/support/display.asp?biggie=big_befw11s4v2.jpg&prid=415&scid= That looks like a router that would do both cat5 for my desktops and wireless for my laptop. I'm...

I'm thinking of picking up a low end laptop purely for surfing the web around the house, and if I do I would like this to be setup on a wireless network. This would be the only system that uses wireless and I do not wish to change my current cat5 setup for my other two PC's. So my question is...

I fixed the CPU problem! (About to test battlefield now.) After hours of looking, and right after I posted this, I began to search Google for "CPU Usage Too High". I found some random post from a guy who had some type of USB reader installed, removing it fixed his issue. I removed my USB...

I'm running houscall now just to be sure. What else could be wrong here? Is it possible that the CPU is bad? (but still working?)

System Idle Process 55-71% System Process 25-45% Performance shows 45-61% CPU Usage I don not see how it could be possible to have a virus here as I just installed the IDE drive on it's own a half hour ago, only used windows update and installed battlefield vietnam. (and the cat drivers) :(

I'm having a hell of a weekend. Just built my new PC and it is running just as bad as my old one. Currently I have the following: 3.2C P4 1 Gig Dual Channel Memory (2 512 sticks) Windows XP Pro Asus P4c800 E Delux MB 200gig SATA WD HD 9800 Pro (running latest cats) So, I install all of this...

that fixed it, thanks

I have two identical 512mb sticks running in what I believe to be Dual Channel mode. When I boot up my pc I get a message that states: Dual Channel Memory running in Linear Mode. Is that correct?

*bump Has anyone heard of this conflict before?

Hi guys, I built my new PC this evening and for the most part things went pretty well. I bought an Audigy 2 card that appears to be a dud though - I put it in two different machines and the PCs would not boot with the card installed. Odd. Anyhow, my question is regarding a conflict that I...

3.2C P4 WD 200gig HD 1 Gig Dual Channel Memory 9800 Pro Audigy 2 Asus P4C800E MB 435W PS DVD Drive CDRW Windows XP Thermaltech Case Well, I bought the above for $1920 tonight. Guess I'll spend the next 10 hrs putting it all together /sigh. Thanks for the feedback. Floppy Drive

Running @ 1280x1024, settings to HIGH (not HIGHEST). I don't wanna turn off the eye candy, that's why I play these games. :) Well I'm glad to hear the P5 is not right around the corner like I thought, it makes me feel better about upgrading.
