    What type of tuner do I need if I have Verizon FIOS?

    I currently have Verizon FIOS for my Cable TV service and for the most part I like it. The big problem I have with it is that their Multi-Room DVR just plain sucks. So, I figured I'd resurrect my old MCE2005 DVR computer and put it to good use! The question is, what type of tuner do I need to...

    Where to get AMD chipset driver other than ASUS website

    I bought an ASUS M3A78-EM used and don't have the driver CD. I need to download the AMD chipset drivers for WinXP but ASUS' own website must be hosting the file on a 56k modem or some crap because I've tried for the past two days to get the 400+ MB file and can never get more than 16Kbps on the...

    Geforce 9600 GSO

    So I recently became aware of the new Geforce 9600 GSO from Nvidia. The card appears to be based on the G92 core and sports a rather unusual 192-bit memory bus. I'm a big "value" graphics shopper and I'm curious if anybody here has had any hands-on time with one of these yet. I'm looking to...

    WinTV-PVR-350 and MCE2005

    I have a PVR350 that I'm using in a dedicated MythTV box that a friend of mine help me setup. It works great but I'm no Linux guru and it's a pain to fix/change anything with it. With the new media center extender functions coming with the xbox360 I'm considering switching over to MCE2005 but...

    WoW on a PCI Geforce FX5700LE?

    A friend of mine made the rather poor decision to purchase an emachine computer a few years back and has now decided that he wants to play World of Warcraft on it. Trouble is that like most cheapo emachine computers it does not have an AGP slot. So... he asks me to find him a good video card to...

    I've been running my Gainward Geforce Ti4200 in my system for about a year now but it recently has died on me. A few months ago the problem started, my computer would boot normally, I would see the system post and the windows loading screen, but after that it would flash the windows logon...

    ViewSonic A90f+ blurry?

    I just bought the A90f+ from my local Best Buy and I wanted to see if anybody else has this monitor, and what they think about it. I'm running the monitor at 1280x1024, 75 Hertz on a GF4 4200 and it seems to be a bit blurry to me. Has anybody else had this experience or is it just me? The...
