    No Video Signal After Cold Boot

    Been having some issues with my monitor not getting a video signal after a hard reset. If I restart my PC from within Windows if comes right back up at POST but if I power it off it has to sit for at least 30-45 minutes before the monitor comes up with the system. It is not a video card...

    Reinstalling Stock Heatsink

    I want to install a second 8800GT in SLI to give my rig a little more life. The problem is, I replaced the stock heatsink on my EVGA with an Accelero S1 w/ 120mm fan which takes of a lot of room. So I need to reinstall the stock heatsink assembly in order to fit another card in there. I have...

    Auto-X or Sunday Drive a Supercar?

    It seems I have a local Supercar "rental" company nearby that's actually pretty cheap so I thought I'd give it a shot. You can either pay to go on one of their tours (You get to drive several of the cars through the countryside for up to 70 miles) or you can drive 3 different cars on the Auto-X...

    My (female) dog is a model!

    I probably shouldn't even post this on here because of the raging, young, feline-loving, testosterone filled place that this is, buuuuuuuut I will. (Because I think it's the most entertaining thing I've seen in a while.) My cat just showed it to me and I can't get over how sexy she looks...

    CPU Heatsink Cleaning Advice Needed

    When I first built my rig over two years ago my X2 6000+ ran in the mid-high 30's C idle and high 40's C under load. I hadn't paid too much attention to the temperatures up until a few weeks ago when I was trying to figure out why my games were crashing. As of now my idle temps are around...

    What's this stuffed animal-thing

    I've seen this over the past few years in various places on the internet. Can anyone identify what the name of it is? Possibly NSFW since there's a girl in the picture: Circled in red at the bottom right of the picture

    Song Indentification

    Anandtech members seem to be good at identifying songs from obscure details. I thought I would give you guys, and gals, a shot at this one since it's been bugging my girlfriend and I for over a year now (not an exaggeration!). In the TV show Lost, they play this melody that has the exact...

    USB 2.0 PCI Card

    I purchased a cheap PCI USB 2.0 card from SVC.com over a year ago since my motherboard only has 4 USB ports. Over the past few months the card has acted flaky so I thought I would look into buying a new one. This card I have now has 4x External and 1x Internal USB ports. One thing I haven't...

    Abandoned Kitten

    I heard cow's milk won't do. The little fella looks to be a few days old. I found it dirty and crying earlier today. Brought it in, warmed a towel and wrapped it up. I normally hate cats but feel bad for the little guy since his mom left him. Any tips would be appreciated. No money for a...

    Movie/TV Guns

    Seriously, what the hell is up with all the rattling that takes place when an actor moves around a gun in a movie, television show, etc.? They sound like they have dried beans bouncing around inside. My favorite is when you hear the distinctive noise of a hammer being pulled back on...

    Overclocking and DDR2 RAM Timings

    I'm a bit lost and hope someone out there could give me some insight on this. I OC'ed my X2 6000+ yesterday to 3.3GHz and knocked my RAM settings to AUTO in the BIOS just to take it out of the equation. Running at stock clocks on the CPU, I manually had my RAM at 4-4-4-12 2T (2.2v). Since I...

    I just downloaded the latest Nvidia drivers off of guru3d's website. The driver's description stated that Nvidia improved something in the package to make the Crysis SP Demo perform better and it does a good job of doing it. Before I had a mix of medium and high settings to tweak it just...
