    Help reinstalling MAC Mini Server

    Thanks guys....I think I will give the remote disk a try from my other MAC which has a disc drive. I was able to find out the ip on the MAC mini server via the server admin tools I installed on my other MAC. It had a fixed ip address assigned to it (thus I wasn't able to see from my router as...

    Help reinstalling MAC Mini Server

    Have a customer who had one of his partner's try to setup their new MAC mini server. He assigned it a fixed IP address (which we don't konw) and set a password on it (which he forgot). It does not have a DVD drive built into it. So my question is how can I reinstall Snow Leopard server on it...

    ARMA 2 and/or Operation Arrowhead?

    You can get Combined Assault that has content and missions from both. Watch for deals on Steam...they had a great deal a week or so ago. This game has a great mod and add on community. Check out these sites: http://www.armaholic.com/index.php http://www.armedassault.info/

    LCD repair? Anybody know?

    I was just doing some research the other day for a 19" and a 15" monitor I am looking to repair. Both have the same problem your monitor is having...turning it on I get a picture for a second, then the picture goes blank (even though the power light is still green). The site I found...

    Is it worth upgrading 9600GTS to GTS 250

    Thanks guys...you provide great input and debate as usual. It sounds like it may be worth forking out for the 5770 and get the extra boost from that. The 5770 supports DirectX 11 as well right? Just when I thought I found a good deal too...$90 no rebate, free shipping the this ECS GTS 250 1GB...

    Is it worth upgrading 9600GTS to GTS 250

    I currently have a GeForce 9600GSO (fixed, not 9600GTS) 384mb and am considering upgrading to GeForce GTS 250 1GB card. My budget is around $100. Do you guys think it is worth the upgrade, will I notice much of a performance upgrade in games like COD-MW2 or BFBC2? Or am I better off holding...

    Firefox is a bloated piece of trash

    Wow...I use FF 3.6 w/ ad-block and a few other plug-ins and it is very fast for me. Since upgrading to 3.6 I have not had any flash video choppiness either. And this is with it running on three different systems...I get the same performance. P4 w/ 2GB Ram AMD X2 2.1Ghz w/ 4GB RAM AMD X4 2.6Ghz...

    Video Conversion

    Actually I use a free program called Super. Encoding is fairly quick with it. http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html. Their website is a little wonky though and sometimes I have trouble finding the download link.

    OFP2 out this week

    Hey novastori. Thanks for the update. Any report on graphics look and feel and any lag? I just got notice that my shipment from Amazon on it is delayed another week. Looks like I am going to cancel it and get it off Steam.

    OFP2 out this week

    I am going to reserve my judgment until I play the game (pre-ordered from Amazon...still haven't shipped yet...little upset about that). However I will say I was (and still am) a huge fan of the original OFP and the add-on community is incredible. Add-ons still being made for the original game...
