    ASUS R9 270 artifacts in Firefox

    JDG, Thanks for the speedy reply. This seems like a minor problem I guess. I can live with the Firefox problem as long as it doesn't spread to my games and other applications. The card was sold at a really good price and I am very happy with its performance.

    ASUS R9 270 artifacts in Firefox

    I recently purchased a new ASUS card, the R9 270 and I see a square pattern of graphical artifacts in my Firefox browser window. I RMAed the card back and the replacement does the same thing. I contacted ASUS tech support and they said to use different drivers. Sigh. Is this a big problem...

    linksys BEFSX41 problems

    I am having two problems with a Linksys router 1. I flashed the rom on it and now the routers setup page will not display correctly on my Windows 7 computer. I have tried different cables and when a setup page loads, only part of it shows up. If I refresh the page sometimes more will show up...

    Docsis cable modems

    I was just mad that Suddenlink knew what kind of modem I had and never told me why I wasn't getting the speed I paid for. The tech that came out yesterday got me a Docsis 3 that was used and Suddenlink gave me a $120 rebate, so no bill this month, lower bill next month and modem paid for.

    Docsis cable modems

    Yeah, I read that before, I just wasn't sure what it meant, It said 48.88 Mbps throughput. So I was confused why my modem would only do 1.5 Mbps downloads

    Docsis cable modems

    What is the max speed of a Docsys 1 modem. I have been looking online but can find a solid answer for its download speed. I had really slow internet so I called Suddenlink and they said there may be a problem with the signal in the building cable. When the tech got here he told me what was...

    Linksys BEFSX41 any way to unbrick it?

    I actually got it to boot up and flash the firmware using the instructions on this page. I was nervous opening it up and sticking metal to pins inside it but it worked. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12703000

    Linksys BEFSX41 any way to unbrick it?

    Yeah, I tried TFTP but since I can not connect to the router, it will not update. I don't know what JTAG is, I'll Google it. You would think they would make a basic rom chip that would take over in case a flash goes bad, just so you are not left with junk

    Linksys BEFSX41 any way to unbrick it?

    So my connection got cut when I tried to updated the firmware and now I have the flashing red light of death. Is it trash? I have looked online for ways to unbrick it but my computer never makes a connection to it and I can never ping it. A friend gave me his old Linksys but it cuts my...

    Linksys BEFSR41 v.2 slow

    OK, my old router died so I got this BEFSR41 from a friend. Without a router, my download speed is around 15 Mbps, with this router, I max out at 5 Mbps according to Testmy.net Is it because this router simply can not go any faster? I am using the latest firmware for that router. Any...

    Linksys BEFSX41 and ASUS M4a77D motherboard

    Yeah, I bought a new ethernet card and it still only shows up if I set the speed to 10 Mbps. Also my new Cat 6 cable doesnt seem to work. It feels like it is too loose in the socket of the router. Sigh, new modem for me, and I wasted money on that used one.

    Linksys BEFSX41 and ASUS M4a77D motherboard

    well. I finally got the router to acknowledge that I have a nic attached to it but it will only show up if I go into the properties of the nic and set the speed down to 10 Mbps full duplex ( half duplex may work too) I can slowly use the internet now but it feels like dial up. If I switch the...

    Well, my problem is solved. BFG is taking it back. I thought they would not since I did not have a receipt for it. I just have to pay to have it shipped back to them.

    My 8800 crapped out

    Actually, my card is not dead, it just has misplaced pixels and big squares all over the graphics. I may just try the backing thing. I don't have anything to lose. if not I'll probably just buy a cheap card to throw into the server and hold off on my main box till I have time for a major upgrade

I was thinking about getting another 9800 and stick it in my gaming rig, but its the newer 1 gig card with the pci-e 2.0 spec. My...

    I have a copy of Windows XP Pro 64 but the first time I installed it, it freaked out when trying to play games like Civilization 4. This was almost 2 years ago I guess. maybe I should give it another try and reinstall it. I don't own a copy of Vista yet and the thought of buying it makes me...
