    Combining two routers into one network?

    I have a decently complicated problem that I'm hoping can be solved by somehow combining the two networks in my house. So we have Verizon Fios and the Actiontec MI-424-WR router that comes with the service, which by itself, works fine. But we also have a second router in our basement, a floor...

    I just got home today and as soon as i pressed the power button, I felt a little shock of static electricity. This has happened several times before, so I wasnt too worried. I left and came back expecting it to be booted up, but the monitor power light was blinking and wasnt getting a signal. I...

    A toy game review site with friends. Need suggestions getting started

    Before I start, I should say that what made me want to make a website was that my dad said that one of his boss said that one of his students said that he has a website that makes thousands of dollars off of advertising a month. Now this probably got overeggagerated somewhere down the line...

    Guild Wars Quits to Desktop?

    In order to fight a strangely powereful case of WoW withdrawal (after not having played the game for 8 months), I decided to fire up Guild Wars. It updates, goes to the login screen, I log in, and choose my character, and then it starts on its download update screen, with like 1000 files to...

    Viewsonic VP930b or the Samsung 940b?

    Recently I've really been wanting an LCD to replace my incredibly heavy 19 inch CRT, partially so its easier to take to LAN parties and to save my eyes in case the theories are true. After looking around alot, I've pretty much narrowed it down to two choiced: either the Viewsonic VP930b or...

    To buy or not to buy: Transporting LCD's?

    I currently have a 19" CRT for all of my computing uses, but being around 60 punds, it can be a huge pain to take to lan parties that I go to with my friends every couple weeks. The monitor also takes up alot of space when we cramp together on the small desks in our basements, so buying an LCD...

    Fan Speed Controller Question

    I am in need of a good fan speed controller, but all of my fans use four pins molex connectors for power (with the passthrough thing), and all of the fanspeed controllers that I can find on newegg use the smaller three pin connectors. I was previously suggested to find some adapter, but failing...

    Question for PCI-E X800XL owners

    Are you all using 24 pin PSU connectors to your motherboard? I'm in need of an upgrade, and because the pci-e X800XL was quite a bit cheaper than the pci-e 6800GT, I've been leaning in ATI's direction. However, the X800XL seems to draw all of its power from the pci-e slot, and I hear that the...

    Video Card Power Usage Question

    I've done a little research, and was getting ready to upgrade my computer, until I realized the Chaintech nforce 4 ultra mobo I was looking at had a 24 pin power connecter, while my PSU only had a 20 pin connector. I read that the extra four pins were mainly for providing power to the pci-e...
