Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'm debating telling them to get a Dell also as the deals out there are amazing with large lcd's included. I might just reuse some of the parts in this old computer for my own new build....but doesnt really seem that i can use much except for the harddrives...
Hi Everyone,
First some info on an old PC i built for the rents.
Asus A7N8C-E board
AMD 2500XP
2 x 512MB Crucial Ballistix 3200 RAM
ATI AIW 9800Pro 128mb
Have DVD drive, floppy, Antec Truepower 400W PS, and 1 WD SATA 120GB hardrive.
Now here's the fun part. Rents recently got a...
I need some quick advice on replacing a broken graphics card.
It's for and AGP slot and needs to be single slot becasue it is running in a little Shuttle. What is the best card i can get for around $150 or so? PC had an x800pro in it before and i would like some decent graphics power...
Any of you guys know a way I can watch this on the internet somewhere?....i know it's live on CBS at 5ET. I'm living in Germany right now and would love to see my Badgers win.
Also, who do you think is going to win?
Thanks
really?.....yeah i thought so too but i just checked the employee handbook and it says vacation is forfeited if not 1 week notice given...i'm planning on giving two weeks and you guys answered exactly what i was looking for. Thanks
Well i will be putting the employer in a tough position becasue i am currently covering for someone with a position above my current one while they are out on maternity leave....so i figure they will want me to stay around for a bit. Yeah i will def use the time between employment.
reason i am really asking is financially i could use two more weeks pay from today to hold me over so i just dont want to get sent home right away with nothing more. There is a good chance they wouldnt send me home right away, but is there any reason they have to pay me that two weeks?
Ok, since many of you here are in the workforce i figure i can get some advice. I've been working my current employer for 1 year since finishing college. I've been unhappy with some of the ways they've treated me but overall the expereince has been positive. Well the reason i am leaving is...
for this model only the gfx drivers are on their site.....PLEASE i need help finding the mobo/chipset drivers.....trust me i have been looking....help please
Sorry guys i know i should be able to find these but i can't seem to pin them down. I had to reformat the drive on this emachine for a friend and emachines puts their drivers on a little partition instead of a recovery CD i now found out....and for some reason their website=no drivers.
I...
i know i do....aol is long gone down the drain and people are still getting ripped by them....i cant believe how many people still use it their email and service......
any opinions??
ok just a quick question i know i should know....just making sure though.
If i have a harddrive with a previous windows install on it and i want to recover files from it....do i just connect it as a secondary drive on a working windows PC?? is this going to caus any problems during boot up? i...
so since i am already using a wireless router and then would connect the access point to it using an ethernet cable is there anything i need to set up specifically? am i going to create interference with multiple wireless access points meaning #1 the router and #2 the access point now?
i...
ok forgive me for asking this, but should be easy to answer for some of you. I have a home wireless network set up with a Linksys G wireless router. Now i have a friend who has an old linksys G wireless access point which he isnt using anymore and is willing to give to me. Could i use that...
Quick question for some of you here....i have dvd backup programs and all that but i need a program to burn some data DVD's. So, i can back up my personal data. Do most of you use Nero or any other program? is there something cheaper than putting down$50+ for Nero??
Ok guys,
i'm googling myself to death and can't seem to find any info on this problem....i just upgraded from a wirless B linksys router which worked great to a new balkin pre n router, which does live up to the hype of extreme range and speed. Well the network of 4 wirless laptops and 2 wired...
soory for all the questions but working on a speedy build here....any suggestions for a good decent price monitor around 300 i think....i like the 710N from samsung as a cheap monitor for 250 i think but any other recs?
just starting on a new build for my brother and been away from things a little so wondering if the new venice is better or if i should still go with the winchester...its wierd casu the winny is more at ZZF. Thanks for the help
Please point me to where you found Microsoft has signed on to Blu-Ray.........get the info right and back it up please. As far as i've heard they are all for hd-dvd.
I'd also like to chime in here......HD-DVD also already has the support of major players in the movie industry behind it. And what do you think manufacturers would rather do? simply swap their lines or create whole new plants to manufacture blu ray. Bluray will fail as it is seen now simply by a...
Well i ended up giving up with the SATA drive and got an IDE and all is well...everything worked perfect...so it is something with the SATA controller/drive or XP install...maybe i need XP install with SP2....by the way this isn't on this one system as i am building two and same thing happens on...
Wow this is a wierd problem and i know i must be missing something stupid.....just tried anoth WD sata drive i had around and had same problem where windows install just sits at 0% during formatting. How can this be possible??
Also....i got an install to work about an hour ago by using the datalifeguard tools from WD to format it first then installing windows....but here's the prob after i had all my drivers installed all nice I went to update to SP2 with an update disc i have....well that somehow failedhalf way...
Thanks i should have explained the SN95G5 better on this forum.....you don't need the SATA drivers for it because the bios can detect the SATA hard drive...you only need to install the RAID drivers if you are going to raid two HD's. and just for kicks i did start an install and go with the F6...
Hi everyone,
I just put together a Shuttle SN95G5 for my brother and am having problems installing Windows XP Pro. i do have an SP1 version of the install and plan on updating to SP@ after install if that matters. Well the WD SATA drive is recognized fine in the BIOS and windows install...
Anyone happen to know where i can find this card in stock....newegg and ZZF are out....just wondering and thanks...i just didn't know if the HS would be too big
I have an easy question for you all.....is the Leadtek 6600GT AGP single slot????? i don't know if all 6600's are single slot and i am planning on getting one for a Shuttle sn95g5 build so i need a single slot and i am just confirming because i can't find the info anywhere. Thanks all
Thanks a lot i'm heading off to get some sleep now.....i've decided to either go with the BFG 6800 OC from outpost for 250 or i might just go with a Leadtek 6600GT for $214.....anandtech also gave that card the best rating for the 6600's so i'll have to decide on price....thnaks for all the help.
Thanks for the recommendations......Wolf do you happen to know if the 6800 OC from outpost comes with the copy of farcry......i've seen that that is included on other sites but they have it priced at 299...maybe thats why and i dont see anything on outpost mentioning it
So what do you guys think....unfortunatly i can't find any deals on the 6600 GT OC from BFG.....looking at 249 at ZZF......where i am getting most of my other parts......i also don't have time to wait for deals bc i need to build this PC in the next two weeks......its for my bro's b-day...
