My wife's computer is running an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe (rev. 1.06) motherboard with an Athlon 3200+ CPU. Recently, the sound just stopped working and she asked me to take a look at it. Thinking it would be something simple, I delved into finding the problem and ended up spending hours trying to fix...
I have a DFI Expert motherboard that has the 8-pin 12V connector. The power supply only has the older 4-pin connector which is currently plugged into one half of the 8-pin connector. It seems to be working alright but I have read that others have sent in their PC P&C 510 SLi power supplies to PC...
I should have read more before purchasing this DFI Expert motherboard about the known problems with TCCx memory. I have 4x512MB sticks of OCZ Platinum Rev 2 (all TCCD) that I can't even get stable at default 166(333) speed. Very frustrating to say the least. I had these same sticks running...
I am looking for recommendations on hardware that I should purchase such that I can connect my neighbor to my high-speed wireless internet. They live roughtly 600 ft away from me with two brick walls seperating the two computers. I was thinking one of the 802.11 Pre-N routers and cards would...
Please, what are the fans that meet these requirements in the following sizes? I want a quiet PC for a change but do not really want to sacrifice good cooling (from air that is).
80mm
90mm
120mm
I am searching for an affordable black case that has a cover on it to cover up the drives (DVD, CD-RW) and hides the floppy face. I know I can paint them but this is not my PC and the person requested a black case. Can you post some links to some please? No overclocking options needed. Thanks.
I am looking at getting a PCI TV tuner expansion card for my PC. I have narrowed my choice down to three cards based on price and features mainly. Here are the choices:
Hauppauge WinTV-pci
ATI TV Wonder
AVerMedia TV/FM98 Stereo
I like the Hauppauge and AVerMedia the most because they support...
You know, if I did not pay $250 for this dog he would be buried already! Not to mention the cost for shots and medical care. Anyway, my real gripe is that he has chewed through the cable on my Karna Razor Boomslang 2000 mouse. I sort of have it working cause I rigged it with electrical tape but...
I have been messing around with my PC and trying to get my sound card (SB Live) working correctly under W2K SP2 and I have not had a whole lot of success. If I turn off ACPI by upgrading Windows 2K as a "standard PC" then all I get is BSODs. I am now back to all devices using IRQ 11 and now I am...
<P>I am having problems (like so many others) with my SoundBlaster Live! on my KG7-RAID motherboard. Before I begin, I am running Windows 2000 SP2 as my OS. I have updated everything possible from video drivers to VIA 4-in-1 (no AGP) and AMD AGP to BIOS. The sounds seems to be "dragging" a bit...
I am looking to pick up a DB15 to 5-pin BNC cable for my Sony G500 monitor and I just realized I know almost nothing about them. I guess my questions are as follows:
1) Is there a noticable difference in quality?
2) What does ferrite do for the cable? (I have seen cables with and without it)...
I ordered the Abit KG7-RAID motherboard and 1 GB of PC2100 RAM from Crucial. Some of you kindly pointed out that the KG7 will only take two unbuffered chips or four registered chips. This is my second time exchanging the RAM I have received from Crucial and they have charged me three times for...
Ok guys... I feel that since this is not my PC I can ask others for help here. I am going to start piecing a PC together to see what I can come up with for $500. I think I can fit the price tag easy enough but I would like to see what you guys would do with that. This is an interesting one since...
Ok, this is one that I have not been able to figure out. I have a few PCs (at work) that all are identical hardware wise. I burn CDs at home using Nero and when I bring them in to the office the ones that use any machine with 9x OS installed they read fine. However when I put the same CD into an...
I am in the market for a really good, quality webcam. I have attempted to do some research on them but there are so many and so little comparison reviews out there that I can not decide. I am sure many of you hardcore PC enthusiasts own and operate webcams. Please share your insights on them...
Here is what is 'under the hood' of my baby at the moment:
AMD Duron 750 @ 1GHz (Perfectly Stable w/Pencil Lead)
GlobalWin FOP38 HSF (Arctic Silver)
Abit KT7-RAID Mainboard
256MB CAS-2 PC133 RAM
Antec SX1030B Case (300W PS)
Four 80mm Antec Case Fans (AMD=Hot)
3D Prophet II GTS Pro (64 MB)...
I currently have my system running stable at 1GHz but I have read a few posts where people mentioned that the lead degrades over time. I am about to take it apart anyway soon for upgrade reasons. I would like to remove the pencil lead and use another method to close the bridges and want ideas as...
Hi. As you can tell I am thinking about getting this monitor. First, I would appreciate anyone who can tell me where and how to get the absolute best deal on this monitor. However, if anyone feels like there is a better 21" monitor or think that the Sony plain rocks I would like to hear...
Anyone know how or where to get the best deal on this? Actually if anyone has any comments on a better monitor or positive or negative comments on this one I would like to hear them also. Give your two cents when it really can count here! ;)
Hello everyone. I have read many of your posts and appreciate all the great deals that you have shared. My pocketbook is so much lighter thanks to you I barely feel it in my back pocket now. :D I am looking at buying the Sony CPD-G500 21" monitor. I found it cheapest on Buy.com but I can...
