I did update the Ati catalyst drivers regularly. last update was two months ago. Never tested usb transfer speed until recently. Maybe, I should update it again to see if newer driver makes any difference. What bio setting can possibly affect the USB transfer speed?

Appearantly, many people complaint about SB600's SATA driver wasn't working well for them. Biostar hasn't update its driver for the SB600 since June 2007. I am thinking about installng the AMD chipset driver package for ASUS M2A-VM (which has the same 690G and SB600 chipsets) on my...

but the Toshiba laptop using the same south bridge seems to work just fine.

I built this HTPC last summer. It has Biostar TA690G (with latest bio installed), AMD64 X2 4200+, 2Gb of ram, Samsung 500GB hard drive, and Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit installed. Everything works fine, except I couldn't overclock (but that is okay) and it has slow USB transfer speed. I...

dawza, I notice that 2007FP's native resolution is 1600 x 1200 whereas 2007WFP's native resolution is 1680 x 1050. So, if I set windows' display property to use normal size font, which panel will have bigger text size or they are the same? I prefer larger text size because I intend to do...

NETGEAR WGT624NAR 108Mbps Wireless Router - Refurbished (very low price) or Linksys 54Mbps G Router ($40) or D-Link DI-634M MIMO 2XR ($55) I will connect the router to a xyzel 660 DSL modem for broadband connection. My top priorities are reliability (don't want drop connection, or slow...

My notebook has a stick of Samsung (M470T6554CZ3) PC2-5300 DDR2 512MBytes memory. I want to add a stick of 1Gbytes PC2-5300 Trascend or PC2-5400 PQI or OCZ Value into the notebook. Do you think there is going to be a problem with a non symmetric upgrade (one side has 512 Mbytes and another...

Embarq is the new name for former Sprint telephone and high speed DSL division. Does anyone else have a suggestion.

I just moved to an area service by Embarq (formely known as Sprint). Embarq provides internet users with a basic Embarq brand 660 series dsl modem which doesn't have an integrated wireless router. Therefore, I am searching for a decent upnp wireless router which doesn't cost more than $60...

So, the Core 2 Duo is out already? Why haven't the manufacturers made any Core 2 Duo laptop yet?

I noticed that changing the LCD's default resolution to another definitely blurs the text or graphic.
