    Need Help on the Ship in Farcry --PLEASE--

    I thought it was pretty easy to just follow the directions, then run back to the boat's lobby before the helicopter comes. Then just hit it with the rocket launcher a half dozen times (at least on med. difficulty).

    EXCEL question....

    In column B, in the first cell corresponding to your data in column A, write =A1*2. Then double-click the little dot at the bottom right corner of the cell and it will apply the formula to the rest of the column.

    Thermaltake Tsunami

    I have this case and I've taken the power supply in/out several times without having to remove the motherboard. It's a tight fit, but it's doable. The case rocks and I highly recommend it :)

    Low CPU temp (perhaps too low?)

    What is the room temp? 12C is a chilly 54F, so unless the room you're in is a refridgerator, it's almost certainly wrong.

    Similar thing happened to me a few days ago. Fortunately the PSU was the only thing that went.

    ALL 9800 Pro/XT/Pro flashed to XT OWNERS!

    128 MB Sapphire 9800 Pro, R360 core, VGA Silencer Rev3. Flashed to XT bios at 412/365. No way to tell the temperature, but it certainly seems cooler even than running at stock speeds with the stock cooling. I may try to push the OCing more once I see how d3 and hl2 are going to run...

    Help, fan plug, VGA Silencer & Radeon 9800pro 256meg version

    Sneaky is incorrect. It's the 9800 XT that doesn't work with this card. I had this same issue with my 9800 pro 128 MB. Just look at the old 3 prong plug colors, and match those colors to the two colors on the two prong plug. Basically you have to plug the two-prong plug into one side of the...

    Artic Vga Silencer

    I just installed mine a few days ago. It's super-easy, and I've never installed any aftermarket cooling before. And my card is actually cooler now at XT speeds than it was with stock cooling at regular speeds :)

    Onboard Audio

    Just go with onboard sound. Try it out, and if it works for you, great; if you don't think it sounds good enough, purchase a card. No point in buying something you don't really need, though.

    What did I break?

    There are two power cables going from your PSU to your mobo, the big one and the square 4-pin one. I think he meant plug both these in and turn it on.

    Windows 2000/XP transferring files

    I had this problem too. The issue is with Windows 2000. It's been a couple years and I don't remember exactly what I did, but try reading around... this may help: http://my.brandeis.edu/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0001S8&topic_id=21&topic=

    What about Thermaltake Cases?

    I have a Thermaltake Tsunami and I love it. It's light, solid build quality, lots of room, and stays nice and cool. And IMO it looks great without being too gaudy. Though I'll be the first to admit it IS pricey.

    Did I kill my power supply?

    Update: got a power supply from a friend and hooked it up. Everything booted up just fine, so all I did was fry my PSU. Looks like it's RMA time. Thanks for the responses guys.

    Did I kill my power supply?

    So, after tinkering around in my case this morning, I went to boot up only to hear a "pop" sound and then nothing. I checked all the connections and turns out I plugged a fan molex into the input of my (secondary) HD power. Oops! Would this have caused a short? I fixed this and it still...

    Thermaltake Tsunami

    Awesome, thanks! Actually their price for the windowed version (which I want) is about the same, but I definitely appreciate having a reliable vendor :)

    Thermaltake Tsunami

    Hi, long-time lurker first-time poster :) I want to get the new Thermaltake Tsunami (yes, I know it's a rip-off of Coolermaster's case, hold your flames please). It doesn't seem to be available anywhere that I can find except here: http://www.coolbidnow.com/thtsalca.html Has anyone ever...
