    Wells Fargo's student loan and mortgage customer's data stolen

    :|:|:|:|:|:|:| I talked to my parents the other night, and found out that some computers were stolen from a Wells Fargo vendor that contained the personal data of thousands of people who had loans through them. Miniscule things like, oh, SSN's, addresses, names - you know, all that fun stuff...

    Netgear WGT624 can't connect through a D-link cable modem?

    XP home hangs after loading MUP.sys

    Ok, I installed a new MB on monday afternoon (Shuttle A35N Ultra) along with a new XP2600+. The memory that was in it was PC2100 (I'd intended it to run slower than 2600 speeds until I could upgrade the memory as well). When I finished, I tried to boot up. BSoD. Of course, XP reboots when it...

    Has anyone here tried using the FreeSpeak headset?

    I'm getting a new cell phone hopefully tomorrow (providing that Sprint was fast in shipping my phones), and I'm thinking it's time to upgrade my hands free kit. My current hands free headset is a no name brand, with really bad voice reception (people often complain it picks up the background...

    resume writing

    In trying to get out of the hellhole I call my current job, I've run across the following dilemma: how do you list a previous job/position on your resume for a company that no longer exists? For example, I was a Domain Tech at an ISP in Phoenix, but they were bought out by another company and...

    For those who already have a game cube, you can get the Zelda's Collectors disk for $19.95 (free shipping if you choose standard). You have to register on the nintendo.com site to buy it, but it's easier than picking up the GameCube/Zelda combo, and cheaper than anywhere else I've seen. Text

    more TI 4200 problems

    I bought a PNY TI 4200 this week and installed it in my machine. I've been looking to upgrade my video card, and with my old G4 MX440 card being RMA'd, I figured it would be a good time to see what else was out there. The card does ok at regular desktop stuff, but whenever I try to load up a...

    Missing USB devices

    Ok, I've had this problem once before and it only fixed itself AFTER I took everything apart to put in a replacement MB (didn't work out with the new one). Here's the situation, I've got 2 USB ports in the back of my computer (built in) and I've got a 6-in-1 USB card reader plugged into the...
