    Best Military Movie

    Where's "Das Boot"? Pretty good naval war movie from the German perspective. Full Metal Jacket is one of my favorites.

    Infinite cycle of rebooting..

    Well, one thing I've noticed is the little code on the motherboard when you boot up. It freezes on 52, which in the manual says is the Mem Test.

    Infinite cycle of rebooting..

    Alright, all of a sudden the computer is in a repeating cycle of rebooting. My brother was playing Oblivion and then he tells me that the computer just rebooted. It reboots. I turn it off for about 30 secs and it worked for another 16 minutes. Then it rebooted and now it goes into a cycle...

    Age old question: CRT or LCD?

    Would a 20" widescreen 2005FPW or 19" P95f+ CRT be better for gaming? IMO, the LCD seems to have more clear, crisp, quality picture using DVI versus the analog CRT.
