    1987 Ford Ranger not starting

    Third giving the starter a tap, while someone is trying to turn it over. Had a truck do this once and it had a loose ground, guess it was getting enough power to click but just wouldn't do anything else. it could do this depending on how the ground cables are run but you might want to check...

    Vibration at very low throttle

    While at speed and experiencing the problem, depress the clutch, observe, shift to neutral, observe. Did the problem change with either of these? The engine RPM will come down quickly, car speed will slow very gradually. Is the vibration/noise changing quickly with the RPM of the engine or...

    briefcase pc build questions

    I'm looking at building a briefcase pc and as typical the more I see, the more I think about spending. Right now I'm looking at engineering a monitor mount for inside the briefcase. Vibration/shock resistant monitors are upwards of four times the cost of a standard monitor so... I'm thinking...

    Wow, Geek Squad prices are crazy

    This thread is great. Good flame stuff. My opinion, Goku, you're too fvcking young or stupid (or both) to understand that when you grow up / lose the metal rod in your head, you STILL won't be able to shyt gold bricks. Money can't buy love but it will buy beer and that's a damn close...

    Does anybody have a good tut on opening

    Just decided to reply to the OP here as I now have 1st hand experience. In case somebody Googles and comes across this. There appears to be three main pieces to the PII packaging, a plastic backing, a metal front (heat spreader for direct cpu contact), and a thin-ish plastic piece underneath the...

    Does anybody have a good tut on opening

    I think so, as I said. I have very little experience with slot processors. I saw them and knew I didn't like them. This one has a heat spreader "bolted" in some fashion against the cpu. The hsf is attached to this. The hsf just unclipped. Actually removing the housing from the processor...

    Does anybody have a good tut on opening

    I'm not too stupid to use a BFH, I'm talking about using a little finesse here. I'm upgrading a possible linux rig cause I got another cpu basically free. But it doesn't have a housing, just the bare board/cpu.

    Who needs a draft when you can just kidnap kids to be soldiers??

    Sounds like the kid needs some backbone. Christ, I hope he never breaks the law. They'd pass him around prison with a Hustler cum-glued to his back.

    BFG 6800 OC is $249.99 at outpost.com

    I was kind of laughing at the guy who was talking about the 9800 vs 6800... buuut, if your primary game is BF1942, the 6800 just *barely*holds even with it, and is beaten severely and outright in the Painkiller. Many of those tests have the 9800XT much closer to the 6800 than I thought. Just go...
