Hi,
I have an HP computer with an integrated wireless LAN. I'm currently hooked up using the wired LAN and I'm hoping I can use the wireless portion to allow my Blu Ray player wireless access to the internet. Is this possible and if so is there a tutorial? I looked all over and couldn't find...
Good point. I have The Logitech Z5500 5.1 speaker system so they sound pretty good. I don't mind spending the money if I can justify it. Thanks for the response. It does help.
Hi All,
I remember years ago sound cards were a necessity but todays mobo's seem to be pretty good. I play F.E.A.R and have an Asus P5W DH mobo. Should I spend the money for an X-Fi gamer sound card or is the onboard sound just as good? If there is a difference, is it worth $130?
Thanks!!
Joe
HI All,
I have a set of Logitech Z5500 speakers. They work great but I am upgrading my computer and noticed the speakers have a coaxial and optical digital input. I looked all over the place but can't find a sound card with these digital outputs. Did I miss something? Any suggestions or brands...
I agree on the video card suggestion and that is exactly what I was thinking.
My puter is at least a year old though and I got a great price on it so I'd be an idiot not to sell it. Do I need to? No, but it's one of those things where I'll never get this amount again if I didn't so I'm pretty...
Hi All,
I got a good price for my current set up and need to buy an upgraded computer. I don't have a ton of cash but do want decent stuff. My budget is around $1250 could go a few hundred higher if it was required. Basically been a looong time AMD fan but want to try the Intel core2duo and see...
Well, seeing as FEAR is the only game I play I'd like to get away as cheap as possible. I'm not even that good so want to keep the spending to a minimum. How low can the FPS go before you start to notice? I thought it was 60 but can't remember.
Thanks for all the help.
Hi All,
I just bought a Samsung 226BW 22" monitor and I'm thinking my current video card won't be up to the task of FEAR at full resolution. It's the only game I play otherwise it's surfing the net. Any suggestions as to what would be a decent upgrade that would do 1680x1050 and get a decent...
Hi All,
I picked up this laptop today, the cost was $350 after rebate which is not too bad for what it is. Trouble is Vista needs 2GB of ram and this only comes with 512mb. I need to know a good option for some RAM that won't break the bank. I don't want to spend a ton on RAM when I only paid...
Thanks! It hasn't given me any trouble since I put the settings back to standard. Maybe it's ebay before it goes up in smoke. Any ideas on a good replacement (socket 939)???
Thanks for the replies. I have a decent PS (ENERMAX Noisetaker EG495P-VE 485w) although it could be the culprit I set both my memory timings and CPU to "auto" I have been running the torture test for the last hour or so with no errors.
I find it strange that for over a year the machine ran...
HI All,
Recently while playing FEAR my computer crashes the game to the desktop, crashes the entire computer and restarting or getting a machine check exception error. I tried digging to see if I could find the problem. Memtest ran fine with no errors, prime 95 torture test gave me an error 1...
Hi All,
I'm running XP and have the screensaver to come on after 2 minutes of inactivity. Even though it is activated the screensaver doesn't come on. The monitor will not power down either (scheduled after 20 minutes). Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this problem.
Thanks,
J.
HI All,
I am trying to order more stuff from newegg but both IE and FF state the sit eis unavailable (but my brother's computer can access it just fine). I turned my firewall off and tried rebooting and still no luck. Any idea why just one webpage won't load?
Any advice appreciated. I need...
Right now it's at a constant 1700 rpm but the literature states if I use PWN the board will control the fan speed up to 3600rpm. Trouble is I don't know what all that means.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Joe
HI All,
MY Dad needs a new ps. He has an Athlon Xp 2000, WD HD and a Radeon 9800 pro GPU....nothing too spectacular. I was thinking anything above 400 watts is ok. Any advice on a good one? I am happy with my Enermax and thinking of getting him the same.
Thanks,
Joe
It can just be idle and still shut off. It can stay on 1hr or 8hrs, it varies. It's kind of strange.
It's an Athlon XP 2000, 512MB Ram, Asus A7V333 Mobo, WD HD and I believe a Radeaon 9800pro GPU.
Thanks!
Joe
Hi All,
MY Dad's computer shuts down after about an hour or so of being turned on. THe temps of the Athlon 2000 are 44C according to Asus Probe. Can anyone think of any reasons for this and how I can go about fixing it?
Thanks,
Joe
Hi All,
Is there any difference between the two for a home computer? Is the added expense of the pro version overkill? No networking or anything just a computer operated by my Mom and a single cable connection to the net.
Thanks!
J.
am looking fo rmore. Any other games similar in style to FEAR? I have already ordered HL2.
Also since I am done can I sell the game on Ebay or something? I registered it to get the update but I don't know if another person can use it.
Thanks,
J.
I always wondered how my PC (AMD 4400X2-oc'd to 2500MHz, GForce 7800GT) compares to an xbox or similar gaming system comparing graphics, speed etc. Since they are designed solely fr games to these systems typically smoke a PC or is it pretty even?
Just curious.
Thanks,
J.
Thanks! I tried amset, and I got a strange buzz out of my speaker and it locked up before I could even start to change anything. Hitachi's utility wouldn't allow me to do it either.
I'll try winaam and see how I make out.
Hi All,
I have a Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6B250S0 250GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA150 Hard Drive . Everything is working great but the bios has an option to enable or disable Silicon SATA controller. Currently it's disabled but should it be enabled?
Thanks,
Joe
Hi All,
I was curious if I could take my copy of Windows and put it on a 1GB memory stick and load it via USB 2.0? Due to some computer issues I was reloading Windows a lot (since solved) but always wondered if this was possible. If so how is it done? Would it be faster than the CD?
Thanks,
Joe
