    Simple HDD connector question

    Correct. Or you could just get plain SATA cables without the WD SecureConnect thing if you want, but the WD thing is nice.

    Exclusive but not a bargain: intelligent shoe

    The email I got said they last for about 100 hours of on-time, apparently you can turn them off when you're not using them. They come with a set of spare batteries and you can get more at radio shack. They're just standard 3v lithium coin batteries, like a watch battery but a little bigger.

    Multiple NIC card question

    I initially posted this question in the General forum but was wisely advised to post here so sorry if you've already seen this: I have a windows 2000 pro, Athlon64, MSI K8N Neo with an onboard ethernet adapter (nForce3) and also have a PCI ethernet card I could add in. Is there a way to have...

    Multiple NIC cards?

    Thanks guys, I'll try posting in Networking too, I forgot about that. I'm not trying to get any more speed than I already have, my problem is that for some reason the nForce3 NIC is not compatible with my file sharing program, it causes it crash periodically - Soulseek, that is. Other people...

    Multiple NIC cards?

    I have a windows 2000 system, Athlon64, MSI K8N Neo with an onboard ethernet adapter (nForce3) and also have a PCI ethernet card I could add in. If I do add the second NIC, will I be able to use both of them at the same time and is there a way to specify certain applications to only use one NIC...

    Firefox version 0.8 v 0.9 v 1.0

    Agreed, it's frustrating. The big 1.0 release tends to eat up all memory and CPU on my XP machine, and if I have more thn one tab loaded and leave the browser inactive for awhile it ends up pegging the CPU and crippling my computer. I love Firefox but I have been using IE lately for this reason.

    Holy Crap!! My power supply mobo connecter is burned up!

    No idea what caused it but I wouldn't try connecting another PSU to that if I were you. Sounds like a call for replacement to me.

    Will SATA always be so complicated to install?

    We're all pretty competent here, but the amount of time spent discussing floppy drives that no one uses anymore could be spent figuring out how easy it is to slipstream a windows install with a service pack or drivers that eliminate the need to deal with floppies to install with SATA drives...

    All In Wonder II remote range

    I'm about to setup a new ATI video card and it has the new All In Wonder II remote control, with the big USB receiver pod thing. I'm curious, what sort of range are people seeing with this thing. ATI claims it gets 30 feet of reception, is that true? Does it go through walls or floors?

    Antec Sonata & MSI KN8 Neo Plat USB Header Problem - FIXED READ IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW

    Has anyone had further problems after cutting or removing that extra wire from the case's USB connection? I had the same problem we all did and removing that wire brought my case USB ports back to life. :) That was great but about 10 minutes later my system died and after troubleshooting it...

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    Damn. Well, then here's a couple more questions then: 1. Who should I RMA with, Newegg or MSI? 2. How do I keep from frying it again? I'm pretty sure all I did was disconnect one of the wires in the JUSB connection that was keeping the USB ports from working. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot...

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    Oh, sorry I left that out, I had my CPU and RAM in there. I still get nothing, not even the CPU heatsink fan spins and no lights on the D-Link. So is the board dead?

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    Crap. I just took the board out of the case and tried what Childs suggested, connecting only the power supply, video and power switch and I still get nothing. I tried it without the video card too, and also with the D-Link, still nothing. So does this sounds like an RMA for the motherboard?

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    Right now the bare minimum was connected, no drives, no front USB connections, no PCI cards and it's not working. I forgot about that D-Link diagnostic LED thing, I'll try hooking that up now when I take it out of the case. Thanks for the suggestions!

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    Yeah, I haven't tried pulling the board out of the case yet, I'll do that today. If it works outside of the case then what, then I have a ground short on the case?

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    Also, I cleared the CMOS using the jumper on the board, still no dice. Anyone else have a similar experience with these components? I'd like to narrow it down to the mobo before I RMA.

    Which is dead, motherboard or processor?

    My system is currently not powering up, it was running fine but now it's dead. How do I figure out what the weak link is? I suspect it is either the motherboard or the processor. Frist here's the details on the system: MSI K8N Neo Platinum AMD Athlon64 3000+ OCZ DDRAM 1GB PC3200 400MHZ...
