Hello,
I just got a Dell 9100. I recently formatted the included Maxtor 160GB SATA HD and installed XP Pro on it. On install I used F6 to install the SATA AHCI drivers and now the Dell bios is set up to use the SATA RAID AHCI auto detect option.
I want to now add my old 250GB WD PATA HD as...
Hey guys,
My Gigabyte GA-7VRX rev 2.0 Motherboard just crapped out on me today. I was randomly getting BSODs on bootup lately, and finally this morning when I turned on my computer I heard something pop and my computer turned off. Sure enough, when I looked in my case I saw a capacitor (near...
Hey guys, have a quick question.
I just bought a WD 250GB ATA HD that I will be using as an internal HD in my current computer.
In about 6 - 8 months I plan to get a new computer and am planning to convert the internal 250GB HD into an external HD. When I convert it to an external HD, will...
Am I wrong, or isn't this 5700LE card SLOWER than my previous Chaintech GT ti4400 card?
My ti4400 card crapped out and ABSpc decided to RMA it. I specifically asked to contact me before giving me a replacement, but they didn't. Now I find out that they are giving me a 5700LE as a replacement...
Hey guys,
I need a little help with my HSF set up. I have an AMD Athlon 2000+ XP processor with a Gigabyte GA-7VRX rev 2.0 mobo in an Enermax Case (Cheiftec knockoff with three case fans).
My HSF is a basic Dynatron HSF seen here at newegg: Link
My system temps are not too bad and hover...
Ok here is the deal. I bought a computer from ABS a few months ago and it came with an Enermax 330W PS which crapped out.
When it crapped out I immediately went to Fry's and bought a Antec Smart Power 350W PS for about $60 (I couldn't wait for the RMA process to complete while I was sitting...

Amazon is currently selling the Clie PEG-SJ20 for $179.99 - $25 MIR = $154.99 with free shipping.
Pricematch to Amazon at the $154.99. Use the $30 off $100 coupon + 110% PM to get it to $122.49.
Add tax (for me 9.49)...total price w/shipping =...
Hey guys I could use your help,
I recently bought a new computer in august from ABS and it just suddenly stopped powering on last night (it had been running fine and extremely stable for a month and a half). I was using it last night and then decided to clean the case. I cleaned it out with a...
YMMV
Just what the Dr. ordered...I have been drooling over this keyboard lately.
My local (Bay Area) Office Depot advertised the logitech elite keyboard for $39.99 after a $10 instant rebate.
Add the $15 ti-83 connectivity kit to get over $50.
Total: $55
subtract $15 MIR for TI-83...
Ok after some research and browsing at Best Buy, Circuit City, Office Depot, Staples...I have narrowed my monitor search to about 3 monitors.
My earlier 17" monitor search thread
My computer and mouse are black...im planning on getting a black monitor and keyboard as well (although this is not...
I have been looking at 17" monitors and one of my favorite resolution settings for normal computer work is 1152x864.
How do I know if a monitor supports that resolution? Do all 1280x1024 monitors support that resolution? Is it something that is determined by the video card (i will most likely...
Looks aside, which of these two cases is best for powering an AMD 2000xp system with a leadtek G4 ti4400 (retail), 512 ddr ram, wd 80gb se hd, liteon dvd and cdrw drives and audigy sound card? I most likely will NOT be overclocking and I am looking for stability.
Case w/PS #1: Chieftec case...
I'm looking for a good flat 17" crt monitor that I will be using for a dorm room in college. Unless I can find a good 15" lcd for under $250, I much rather pay less and get more 'real estate' for my money with a CRT.
The 17" monitor should meet the following requirements:
1. flat crt
2. must be...
Ok after getting some feeback on my first post: http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=27&threadid=839254 I have tried to search for another system that suits my needs.
I am going to college this fall and although I am very enthusiastic about building my own computer, my mom isn't...
After being dead set on buying a desktop, I am now considering buying a laptop for college. But after plugging my Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 system into my old Toshiba Satellite notebook, I was disgusted with the sound quality (no surprise really, its an old laptop). I listen to a lot of music and...
This looks like a B&M only...
Office Depot has the m500 for $200. They also have a $25 rebate. Apparently OD accepts competitor coupons (can someone confirm this on their website?)...so:
$200 - $25 rebate - $30 staples coupon = $145 (+tax)
Also, Staples has it on their website for $185. You...
Ok, here it goes. My first new topic post!
I am going to college this fall and I was all set on building my first computer. Unfortunately, my mom didn't like the proposal too much (she is paying for most of it...i hope). I am not really interested in buying a big brand Dell, etc. system unless...
