    Micro Center -ATI Radeon X850 XT AGP $199 AR & addl. savings

    I picked on up from Micro Center in Fairfax VA. They had quite a few in stock cause they don't have the low price up. They all say 400 on them. BTW if you're looking for them they're on the endcap of the video card rack. I got a cancellation notice on my online purchase. Then i got a...

    Fresh XP Pro install. Won't Hibernate.

    Hey guys, I just got this laptop with XP home installed and i finally got around to doing a fresh install of XP pro. At first, I couldn't even go on standby, but i figured once the video drivers were installed that would go away (though that may not have been the problem), and it did but the...

    Converting a partition to linux.

    Hey guys I've got 2 hard drives currently in a dual boot configuration (win 98 and XP pro). I want to change the 98 drive to linux. Is there like an uninstall win 98? Do I need to? Could I just delete all the system files? Also when I install linux will it recognize that there is another...

    Sandisk Cruzer Micro 512mb ~23 after MIR

    I think it's a matter of opinion. I hear the titanium is virtually indestructible but I don't think any of us are gonna run over our usb keys with our cars for the hell of it. I just like the small size of the micro. Benefit of the titanium I like. No seperate cover. It retracts.

    Newegg has the 512mb Cruzer Micro for 35.53 before MIR. My total came to 40.10 after shipping. Minuss $17 rebate = 23.10 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820155410 Best deal I've seen on the micro since the radioshack deal a while back.

    Turion notebook w/ brightview as cheap as $375 + taxes/shipping

    Seems like what they mean is laptop + processor. Otherwise the rebate contradicts itself where it says "When you purchase 'A' select....etc"

    Fresh XP install on a laptop

    figured it was bs. I mean I've built every computer I've owned or managed, so I have no idea what the deal is with laptops and prebuilt computers in terms of software. But I also remember when I went to orientation for BB years back and they stuck me in media and a guy who knew nothing about...

    Fresh XP install on a laptop

    Hey guys, I get XP pro through my school at no cost (besides tuition). I was thinking if I get a laptop that has XP home on it I should just be able to do a fresh install of pro. I've been reading up in here and it seems like there's issues with that depending on the brand. I overheard a guy...
