I noticed that some images are looking washed out or desaturated for me in most browsers. Here is a comparison of the same image in Edge (left) and Chrome (right): http://i.imgur.com/cxf7ERQ.jpg
It only looks bright and vibrant in Edge -- not in Chrome, Opera, or Firefox.
And here is the...
I have a computer with an Asrock H97M Anniversary mobo and it is not recognizing USB during POST. My old PS/2 keyboard works just fine to power on the system and enter BIOS. But no matter what settings I use in the UEFI USB settings, I can't get the USB keyboard to work as the PS/2 does. Any advice?
Just built a new office desktop with Windows 10 last week. Every 15 minutes or so the system will lose focus and, e.g., when opening a new Chrome tab, my typing is not recognized. Even though the Chrome window visually appears to be in focus, it is not registering my key presses. I am not...
I built my home desktop in June 2013 with an i5 4670 purchased from Newegg for $230. Today that part lists for $225. Haswell quad cores are still the mid-range price sweet spot. Is it me or should the market have produced an upgraded product for that price after 27 months?
I have fully enclosed fixtures at home (like this: http://f.tqn.com/y/homerepair/1/S/D/F/-/-/10_install_shade.jpg) and am looking for an LED to replace the incandescent 100W bulbs, mostly on dimmer switches. Many products warn not to use them in enclosed fixtures because they will overheat. My...
Do any companies build desktops with SSDs for around $500 (without monitor)? This is for an office.
If not, I am thinking of building something like this: http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=26972012
Any suggestions?
Thanks
It's been over 2 years since I built a computer. How's this for a $500 office desktop? Can you recommend any better components which cost a similar amount?
http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=26972012
Also: are there any barebones systems worth a damn that...
Looking for suggestions for a portable work laptop around $500 USD. I usually like Lenovo, but do they make a light model in this price range? I don't think I want chromebook, since I will be using it without internet. Thanks!
I'm a professional in NYC and regularly travel to Westchester and Long Island for work. I've been using T-mobile for 2 years and realize I don't use very many minutes / data etc. We're talking <1GB, <1000 minutes, <500 texts. I'm looking for a cost-effective plan ($40 all-in or less) that...
Just got a new HP 521dn for my office and it doesn't seem to come with scanning software that will do OCR. We routinely do large scans and need to save as an OCR'd pdf. Suggestions on software?
Thanks
My Klipsch Ifi subwoofer finally stopped working after 8 years of service. Time to make a change. I'm thinking some kind of bookshelf speakers (although I could keep the stereo speakers for the time being -- they have standard connectors), a stereo amp, and a powered sub. Can you recommend some...
We posted a job (paralegal) on Monster.com and I thought Indeed automatically scoured sites like Monster and aggregates them. But our posting isn't appearing. Is there something else I need to do? Thanks
We got a Brother Mfc-8710 about 6-7 months ago and after probably 15 to 20,000 sheets printed, the text is starting to come out all grainy. Instead of hiring someone to service this $300 printer, I'm looking for suggestions on replacements in the $1,000 range. We only need B&W. We would also...
My office scanner (a Brother all in one) has a problem with skipping pages when using the doc feeder to scan/copy. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks
Does anyone know from first hand experience if the cable tv feature is a worthwhile consideration when choosing between PS4 and Xbox? The home setup in question involves a receiver, logitech harmony, speakers, Verizon fios cable tv, amazon tv box. Thanks
Suddenly some of my text boxes are not increasing their height to display all the text. Clicking wrap text doesn't help; autofit row height does nothing. I tried uploading it to google drive and it was all fixed. But downloading it back from google, it's back to the same problem. See below...
I'm looking for a network printer than can handle a few thousand pages per month and copies quickly. Color not necessary. What do you suggest for a reliable workhorse? Budget is around $500.
We'll also be doing a lot of batch scanning to PDF.
My office wants to buy one or two computers tomorrow so what's the best choice right now? I was thinking something like a Dell OptiPlex 3020. Thoughts?
Thanks!
A family member is shopping for an imac and it has come to my attention that SSDs are not standard issue in premium off-the-shelf desktops. What gives? I'm surprised Apple sells $2000 (and $3000) desktops with spindle drives.
To reiterate: I will not be OCing.
Newegg wish list: http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=22316972
Parts I'm re-using:
SSD Crucial M4 128GB
GPU: radeon 4850 (gonna wait for the Geforce 760 / Radeon equivalent. Not a huge gamer).
Monitor: Dell U3011
Speakers...
When not OCing, does the stock fan keep the chip reasonably cool (below 80C) and allow for unhindered "Boost" while not making any annoying noises? Suppose it's in a good quality ATX case with reasonable airflow, $250 GPU, 2 mechanical HDs.
I'm planning a build and want to know if I need to...
I have a large mail batch with 1-page letters and want to print them all out with one click. Is there an easy and free way to do this? The Word feature Insert Object->Text from file doesn't work because I end up with letters overlapping each other.
Got the HTC One today and have a question about the screen going to sleep during a call. Using speakerphone on the iphone, the screen would turn off after a few seconds, but when I wanted to wake it back up, I could just touch it with my finger. Not so on the HTC -- I have to press the power...
I'm considering switching to Tmo from VZ. I'm wondering if, since Tmo's new plan is no-contract, they could decide in a year to stop offering it and therefore change the terms of my service with them?
Has that ever happened before in the cell phone industry?
I have two questions that I'd love some straight answers to :)
1. Can I bring my phone over to other carriers if it's a verizon cdma iphone 4 (not S)?
2. If I get a new phone, what is the best bang for buck (price/performance) carrier for NYC?
Right now seems to be the end of the current generation cycle so I have two questions:
1) If buying now, what's the best TV for under $3K USD? (Also, what's the current wisdom on plasma vs lcd?)
2) Is it better to wait for the next gen? Why?
If a single political interest (eg Koch Bros) managed to nominate both the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees, then they'd have a guaranteed win. Is this possible?
Is there a way for a website to retain functioning adsense ads even where a user has adblock installed? It seems awfully harsh to prevent a website from earning revenue from mere text ads, which are sometimes even helpful.
Considering the retina macbooks, the next logical step is bringing the same tech to desktops. Must the industry wait for Apple to do it first, as always? Is it a difficult transition for video card makers?
I'm looking at getting the klipsch rf-82 speakers which are rated at 150W RMS and looking for a receiver to go with them. The thing is I don't want to pay for bells and whistles I'll never use. There are $200 receivers, but they seem limited to 75 or 80 watts per channel. Is this enough power...
I'm finding it surprisingly hard to find good data on this. Anyone know a good source?
Also, I'm looking for a source that quantifies how much personal info is contained in the profiles they keep on everyone for targeting ads.
Thanks
Maybe it's nothing, but his behavior seems abnormal for someone totally sober. Look especially toward the end where he rolls his foot around a lot.

My monitor has a few smudges that I can't clean off. The smudges are probably from acidic buffalo wing sauce :S I've tried 50/50 solutions of water+white vinegar and water+isopropyl. I've tried using q-tips and lens-cleaning cloth. Any ideas? I rather doubt that store-bought screen cleaning...
One of Google's official missions is to deliver relevant, non-annoying ads. But they own Doubleclick, which serves banner and video ads, correct? Or am I mistaken and Doubleclick no longer uses "annoying" ads?
I'm thinking about changing my computer audio setup to a pair of bookshelfs, active sub, and an amp (preferably digital) that doesn't look out of place on a desk. What's the best way to do this?
-What's a good amp for this setup?
-How do you set it up so there are no unnecessary DAC...
What does it mean if a computer sometimes gets stuck at the loading bar in the boot process? It happens about 1/5 of the time when I turn it on. When it happens I turn it off and on and it works fine all day long.
