I've been a bit conserned with my CPU temps lately. In the past month I've had a lot go on that may have traumatized the system, however. I had a nice idle temp of 28 in Colorado, then after increasing 2000+ ft in elevation my temps started rising slowly...Right now I'm idling around 38 and...

So I moved from Colorado to Wyoming over the weekend and have noticed a change in CPU temps...I was idling at 28 and supporting a full load around 41, but am now idling around 31 and have yet to put the system through a torture test to see what the max load is. The elevation increase is aprox...

I've just got in a tube of AS5 and, as usual, have left over. I'm planning on putting a bit on the MoBo (not that the temps are a problem, but what kind of person would I be to leave that AS5 in the tube!?) but I can't seem to find a way to remove the little screw-looking things holding the...

I'm trying to figure out how to run two HDD with differing OS's and have a smooth way to select a drive at boot up, be it through BIOS or another prompt. Currently I'm switching between them by putting the desired drive as primary master, but there has got to be an easier way...Through BIOS I'm...

A buddy I work with just posed a question that I'm not 100% sure of, was wondering if anyone else could lend their input: If a game minimum requirements are: Runs in Win 95 in true DOS with true DOS based drives . IBM, PC or 100% compatibles running DOS 5.0 or higher . 386 DX/25 minimum...

So, our testing group is just about done with all of our current project and will soon be moving on to some PC gaming tests, and were given this little "assignment".. "Create your dream gaming system, include every component and why you would use this in your system. While doing this...
