    Can WCUPID be wrong?

    I am not sure what that is. I don't see an option for it in the BIOS.

    Can WCUPID be wrong?

    I just picked up a second PC for my family. I though I would get a HP MM PC. Anyway, it's supposed to be a Athlon64 3700+. WCUPID shows it as a 3800+. However, I can run WCUPID and get it to show it's 5x200 for 1000MHz one time, and then the next time it shows at 12X200 for 2400 the next...

    Simple 939 question and the X2

    I am sure this answer is simple, but I couldn't find what I was looking for with a search. Since the Athlon 64 X2 is a 939 socket, will it work with motherboards for the regular Athlon 64, 939s? I haven't been keeping up to date and want to upgrade from my XP2600. I basically want to by a...

    Internet Explorer Help Please!!

    I don?t know what has happened to my Internet Explorer. When I used to click a link, I would get another window to open up of the same size. Now when I click a link, I get a tiny 1 inch menu bar. Just shrink a window to its smallest size with the mouse, and that?s what I get. This doesn?t...

    Do we trust Nvidia to make Half-Life 2 run and look good?

    "The only thing I "trust" corporations to do is try to part me from my hard earned bank, consequently, I have no intention of giving my money to any of them prematurely. " That's where I am coming from.

    Do we trust Nvidia to make Half-Life 2 run and look good?

    I am thinking of uprading to the EVga 5900SE from my Visiontek 4400TI. My only concern is support for DX9 PS2.0 FP. I am debating between the 5900 SE and a used 9700 Pro. The 5900 looks to be the killer deal. I am just worried about the quality support of DX9 functions in the NVidia FX...

    Alternatives to Dazzle DVC 80

    I am just looking for a simple tool to tranfer my analog camcorder movies to MPEG or AVI. I notice Dazzle only does movies at 320x240. Are there any other comparable products out there that are as reasonably priced as Dazzle? Thanks.

    What format do songs need to be in to play on a non-MP3 CD player?

    I am trying to burn A CD of my favorite songs from all my CDs. However, my car CD player only plays whatever format normal songs are in. What format is that? I don't want to burn a full CD, I just want to copy my selected songs onto a CD-R, put them into any CD player and have them play...

    Money being equal, a 9600 Pro or TI 4400?

    Yes, that would be the 9600 Pro at Compusa. I only do FSAA once in a while. I did run Motocross Madness 2 on 4X by accident which looked great. Other than that, I don't run it much. It slowed UT 2003 and Unreal 2 way down so I turned it off.
