    Constantly Corrupt Boot Sector on non-OS Drive...

    Hello, all. I've got two internal SATA HDs in my rig--one 250GB, one 200GB. Both are Seagates and have performed remarkably well for at least a couple years, but I've run into a strange problem over the past few weeks: The 200GB trouble-free drive is divided into two partitions, one being...

    Steelsound 5H v2 USB issue

    I recently bought this pair of headphones: http://www.steelseries.com/products/steel_sound/steelsound_5h_v2_usb/information They're great headphones, and they were an oustanding deal. But...since they're the USB version, they have their own soundcard. That wouldn't normally be bad, but I...

    Best Wired Routers For Emule?

    Hello, all. Hopefully I'm posting this in the correct location, but just in case I'm not I'll don my flame retardant shield. ;) This is from my posting on eMule's boards, but I'm meeting with little success there. Maybe someone can offer insight here? First off, I've already scoped...

    What is the name of the program you can use to fine-tune the rips in Blindwrite 5? I had the program before but can't remember what it is called. Thanks.

    DFIMB.DAT?

    Do I need the DFIMB dat file that has shown up in my root directory? I do indeed have a DFI mobo, but I don't know if I can safely delete the file itself. I'm running XP Pro SP2 with the DFI LanParty UT nF4 Ultra-D. Thanks in advance.

    Quick Temp Question

    I have a DFI LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D with an A64 3200+ 90nm Winnie and am using an XP-90 for my proc's cooling and the stock DFI fan for the chipset. My question is, generally speaking, what is the maximum temperature threshold that my proc and chipset should not surpass? I understand that...

    Clarification of Stem Cell Opinion

    This question is not whether there should or should not be federal funding for stem cell research and is directed at anyone who is uniformly opposed to stem cell research for whatever reason. If you are against utilizing extra in vitro-fertilized eggs for stem cell research, are you also...

    "Bush Vows to Veto Measure Easing Stem Cell Restriction"

    http://www.nytimes.com/2005/05/20/polit...60d2af0&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss This almost makes me sick to my stomach. I cannot fathom why any president would impede the efforts of the scientific and medical community to make what could potentially be one of greatest and far-reaching...

    Power With a Mind of Its Own

    I recently built a 64 3200+ DFI Lan Party UT based rig, and everything has been smooth sailing except for one issue: I'll leave my computer alone and on for a few hours (or overnight), and when I get back to it it has turned itself off. The temps are fine, so I can't figure out why it's doing...

    XP & SATA Optical Drives

    I'm planning on building again and I have a SP2 Integrated XP Pro. Now, I have not owned a SATA optical drive before, but I was planning on getting yet another Plextor DVD Burner this time around. My question is this: I know XP can be pretty temperamental about even recognizing SATA...
