    Korean 1440p display with a second monitor?

    I've been running two 1080p monitors for a while now, both with separate DVI-D cables connected to one of two Crossfired Radeon 6950s. I recently picked up one of the Qnix 1440p displays which comes with a dual link cable and I can't seem to make it work with a second 1080 monitor. The Qnix...

    Multiple PCs won't post with this SSD installed

    I had posted a few weeks ago about a laptop that appeared to be dead, as the screen wouldn't even come on and it wouldn't post. Well, I removed the SSD from it to recover the data (after ordering a new laptop) and found that my desktop wouldn't post with this SSD plugged in either. It sits at...

    HP laptop blink codes?

    So my wife's laptop just stopped working today and I don't have a lot of experience with troubleshooting them. I found a list of blink codes on HP's site, but it doesn't seem to correspond to what's happening on this one. Upon powering on all lights turn on and stay steady. Power LED, wifi...

    Google Voice SMS Integration

    Is anyone currently using this app? I've been looking for something like this for a while now, but the reviews aren't filling me with warm fuzzies. Not to mention the fact that it apparently requires your GMail username and password to work. I've seen a few complaints on other forums about...

    T-Mobile Family Mobile ($30) plan data speeds

    So I've been on this Family Mobile plan for a few weeks now and have noticed something about the data speeds. In both the phone the plan came with (Exhibit II 4G) and my Galaxy Nexus I'm seeing exactly 900kb/sec down in Houston. What's strange is that it's always exactly 900kb/sec. When a...

    Sending SMS from third party app with Google Voice number

    I should start by saying that I've been using Google Voice for a good long while now, but I was on Sprint which integrates much more closely with the service than any other carriers. Now that I'm on a T-Mobile prepaid plan I'm running into some issues. What I'd very much like to be able to...

    Cheapest prepaid data plans

    I figured this thread would be a better place to ask than starting a new thread since it's somewhat relevant: Do any of the other carriers offer a similar plan to TMobile's $30 unlimited data/text + 100 minutes plan? I'm seriously considering buying my next phone outright and switching to this...

    Using just the 12v rail from a PSU

    I have an Intel Atom-based board and an InWin case here that only has an input for a 4pin 12v connector on the board. Trouble is of course the power supply won't power up without the 20pin ATX connector plugged in. What would happen if I shorted the two pins like so and plugged the 12v...

    What flavor for home server?

    I'm looking to take the plunge into the world of Linux and build a little home server/NAS. My question though is: What distribution do I run? I have some small bit of experience with Ubuntu desktop (never played with the server version), but I'm wondering if a lighter weight distro is in...
