    Can Two Similar Memory sticks be used together?

    Ok, currently I have 512mb of Corsair XMS pc3500 in my system. I've realized that another stick would go pretty far in a lot of the games I play but I can't find another stick of this ram ANYWHERE. not eBay, not newegg, not even any retailers on google :-\ I did a little bit of research and...

    Looking for some kind of WMA to GIF conversion program, any ideas?

    hey everyone, I made a small movie from a bunch of pics I had and was hoping to make it my icon on myspace but then realized it was in the WMA, so I need to convert it to .GIF! I've tried a bunch of programs I found on google, but all of them include some kind of watermark because I'm using the...

    Random system memory dumps in XP

    It seems like every time I turn on my computer now I get a sort of blue screen of death in Windows XP. Usually it occurs when I'm starting a program, though it happens very randomly and sporadically. It will go into this blue screen and tell me there was an error and windows was shut down to...

    Plextor 708A DVD+RW Burner

    I just put this burner into a new build and so far it reads very few CDs and other media, and I can't figure out why. Music CDs (yes, original copies) dont seem to be read at all, yet I can read most commercial DVDs fine. All CD-RW and CD-R's I've tried thus far simply aren't seen by the...

    Poll: Who will win?

    a lot of this site, or just the politics threads, seem to be overrun with conservative die-hards...I hope Kerry wins, but no matter which side "wins" there will be massive lawsuits, complaints, bitching, etc from either party....one thing is almost sure though: we'll all wake up on November 3rd...

    Sony Vaio Laptop CD-ROM compatibility?

    hey all, well my best friend just gave me his 4 year old Sony Vaio Laptop (still good, even though he hates it). Seeing as how it has Windows Me running on it (*shudder*), i popped in an XP pro disk (burned, heh) to install and found out that the CD-ROM drive had completely crapped out on it...

    Should I switch to the iPod?

    Around May I wanted to get a Digital Music player and was opting for the Ipod, but the price threw me off slightly (didnt have a job at the time) and its battery horror stories swayed me over to get the RIO Karma instead. I've enjoyed the Karma a lot, with its great support for FLAC and ogg...

    Duke Students Given Free Ipods!

    why not just save $39,700 (and thats just for the first year) and buy the damn thing yourself if you want it so bad. I would be pumped if I was going there already and then they announce this, but its just a perk to get more people to enroll there. You're pretty much paying for the thing anyways...

    Official gmail thread

    I just signed up for Walla.com after reading a few reviews and so far its really good. 1gb storage and its interface is clean and somewhere between google's homepage and hotmail's layout. Obviously I havent used it very much yet, but I suppose this will hold me out until gmail is finally...

    Tech support people, what the heck do you do?

    My dad works for a huge networking company called Enterasys, and he's a networking engineer. He told me he basically sits around waiting for someone to call him that needs help, and thats the time where he actually does a lot of work helping people fix routing errors and such. He also told me...

    FINALLY finshed building my gaming rig and....nothing happens

    ya the ATX12v is plugged in (I think thats what Anax was referring to as well), as well as both power cables on the radeon. The Audigy is coincidentally on the 4th PCI slot too. I'm going to have to try your advice tomorrow about taking the bear essentials out- whatever I do is going to take a...

    hmmm, Khoifather-----> moved the heatsink fan around slightly, but its screwed in nice so I think its fine. I just double checked my video Card and thats snug in the AGP slot as well. I'm pretty sure it's not short circuiting because my system powers fine and I can even just leave it...
