I have 2 motherboards that fit some AMD Athlon 64 CPU's I have (3 of them). One of them doesn't seem to work. The same PSU was used with both boards. Both systems were breadboarded (motherboard, CPU & HSF, case speaker, and PSU) to test if working.
The non working motherboard has a newer...
I have a hard drive for my Dell PC that stopped loading windows. The error message says missing hal.dll.
I put this hard drive into another computer and while BIOS detected the hard drive, at first it wasnt showing up in windows. I then did a chkdsk at startup which fixed errors but stalled...
Help me tweak my OC system purchase!
Hey, I'm trying to build a system that does decent overclocking. This will be the first time i'm overclocking a system. I would like to overclock the cpu and graphics card but not trying to do any extreme OC'ing, just an average performance boost. I...

Looking around I found 2 websites that had good office chair reviews.
http://www.nfib.com/object/IO_20009.html
http://www.consumersearch.com/www/office/office-chair-reviews/index.html
Both list the Ikea Joakim Swivel Chair in their reviews, only chair that made both reviews. Its also...
Im 5'9" 170. I do mixed use some typing some browsing but this question would be better off being generic so that anyone who is looking for a chair can benefit.
What is the best computer/office chair for someone who sits long hours? I am looking for under $200.
Yes, I can get a Herman Miller Aeron or a SteelCase Leap chair or a Humanscale Freedomchair but I would rather not spend 800+ for a chair. They are probably the best chairs on the market. But...
renethx for which motherboard are you talking about? The MSI K8NGM2-L the MSI K8NGM2-FID or the geforce models?
Also which board do you think I should get? I am looking for dual monitor support and the ability to OC. Extras like firewire, 4 SATA ports, and Gigabit ethernet I dont need.
can I buy the MSI K8NGM2-L instead? Since the company I bought the geforce6100 (mwave.com) doesnt carry the FID model and charges a 15% restocking fee if I dont exchange for another motherboard.
Edit:
BTW I want the option to duel monitor. I have 2 CRT monitors and 1 LCD monitor I can...

Hello,
I stuck a screwdriver into my power supply fan so that I could test noise levels without the fan. Well even though the computer was off, it sparked. Now my computer wont start. Do I need a new case? Did I cause damage to other parts of the computer.
Thanks
Chris

I kept it unencrypted for the purpose eliminating that as a posibility. Also rebooting, ipconfig release/renew, manually setting the IP didnt work. This problem didnt happen with just the wireless card. The wired NIC card I had in earlier didnt find the IP for the router also even after...

NIC card has limited or no connectivity.
I have a 10/100 NIC card on an older computer that stopped working all of a sudden. I am not sure what happened to cause it. I checked the cable and works correctly. I turned off and restarted both my computer and router/modem. I uninstalled and...
I found out that the problem has to do with WEP encrypton but I cant seem to find out the solution. If I turn off WEP on wifi card and the router it works fine. lets say I set the password to 'password' turn it to 128 bit encryption, put it on key 1 set channel to 6. For my wireless card, I...
I am trying to switch my router and wireless card between two computers. After lots of hassle installing wireless cards before, I figured I could handle any problems. Guess not.
I have a netgear MR314 router and a Linksys WMP11 wireless card. Both systems use winxp SP2. I installed the...
UPDATE: I finally found out the problem I was having. When I changed the DNS Client Properties, it reset the max connections for tcpip.sys back to 10. Windows XP set a limit of 10 max concurrent connections in its SP2 update. More information can be found about this at...
