I'm having one heck of an annoying problem with a new system build, and I was wondering if the monitor could be the cause. I had a Core2 Duo system with a cheap NVideo 8400GS graphics card, which worked fine on this monitor through the DVI connection. I upgraded my system to a Core i5-3570k...

I have an HP G42-415DX notebook with a card slot that supports Memory Stick, MS Pro, MMC, SD, and XD cards. I have a camera that uses a MS Pro Duo card. The card came with an adapter to make it fit a non-Duo slot. The notebook's manual, however, says that I should never insert any type of...

Anybody? 88 views and no comments?

Any particularly good ones? Particularly bad ones? The model I'm looking to replace is a Brother TN-570 if it matters.

My system shut down normally last night, now it won't start. The standby power LED is on, but pushing the power button does nothing. I tested the power supply with a multimeter and all voltages are good on the main power cable and the 12V cable, I didn't test the drive cables because I assumed...

Sometime in the past few months, my eeePC 1005HA with Windows 7 Starter has developed an interesting problem. After coming out of hibernation, the battery indicator won't update from the level it was at before hibernating. The battery itself works fine, it's just that the indicator is stuck...

I have a Maxtor 300GB SATA drive from circa 2005 that's been out of use for less than two years. When I last used it, it was working fine. Today I decided to install it into a media player. It didn't recognize it. So I took it out and connected it to my desktop system (the same system it...

Bump. Anyone?

Just to clarify, it doesn't broadcast its workgroup and hostname, and it cannot be accessed by hostname from another computer. (It recognizes its own hostname however.) Everyone has read access under Sharing and Security. I had no problem accessing the shares from another computer via IP...

Aha, thanks. It does work via IP, however, it asks me for a password, which it wasn't supposed to, and also the password dialog says something about a domain, which it definitely shouldn't be using, it should be using a workgroup. That explains why it doesn't show up on the media player -- it...

I believe I checked everything, but instead of winking at me, why not explain exactly what I'm supposed to be looking for regarding your mysterious update?

I started up my network media player tonight only to find that it wasn't seeing my server. I grabbed my netbook and found that it didn't see the server either. The server was running fine otherwise (it's my main computer), but I rebooted it thinking that the SMB server process must've crashed...

We could just de-peer Australia. This is, after all, the country that wants to ban small-breasted actresses in porn because they look too much like kids. There's no help for them.

I could've sworn that I had my Windows 7 system set to download updates automatically but ask whether to install them, the same as I always had my XP system. But last night it automatically installed the big IE security patch and rebooted. When I checked this morning, it was set to...

My girlfriend's computer had this issue last week. Both IE and Firefox would randomly redirect after Google or Yahoo searches, the hosts file was clean, MalwareBytes and Spybot wouldn't pick up anything. Turns out it was TDSS, an extremely nasty rootkit. I suggest that the OP find a...

Yeah, I get errors sometimes when I unplug a card from my card reader or unplug a USB drive without ejecting it (never had to eject anything under XP; I suppose I should make sure that 7 has sync mode on...) BUT a hard drive that's continuously connected? That's a little more worrysome. Not...

Every once in a while, Windows 7 will put up an icon in the taskbar notification area saying that one of my partitions has an error and needs to be scanned. Sometimes I'll miss it and won't know about it til I reboot and it scans automatically. But whether it scans at boot or whether I...

If Apple had any integrity, they wouldn't sell to fascists. In fact, I don't know why the hell this country even ALLOWS anyone to do business with China. We forbade anyone from doing business with Cuba, and China has done a lot more to harm us than Cuba ever did.

Earlier this year I got tired of Yahoo Messenger nagging me to upgrade, so I did. But I had a weird problem with version 9. Whenever I would send a link to a friend running version 8, something would change the domain name in the link to the IP address of my router! I couldn't find anybody...

Where is that option? I remember hearing the term, but I can't find it in the controls anymore. I saw that they weren't supporting this card anymore when I went to download CCC, but it's infuriating that it worked with an OLDER version of Windows. I shouldn't have to upgrade to a fancy...

I have an ATI X1300 with a Gateway 1680x1050 monitor attached to the DVI port and a Samsung 1920x1080 TV attached to the VGA port. Under Windows XP, both displays worked fine at their native resolution. (And defaulted to it too.) After installing 7, the Gateway worked fine but the Samsung...

Dude, your analogy is upside-down. With Apple, you get a $10000 car for $30000.

If I had to guess, I'd say there's a week spot in the coil somewhere where it's hidden by the ice, and the ice is diffusing the light as the weak spot is burning up under what's got to be a ridiculous amount of amps.

You've completely missed the point. If this is what I think it is (although like -Dragon- above, I don't know how Sony is claiming it for themselves), radio waves are not involved, if by radio waves we mean the specific solution of Maxwell's theory popularized by Hertz.

I have an Intel D975XBX board with a Core2 Duo 6600. I'm running XP Pro SP3 with all updates applied. The system used to have a slightly annoying problem whereas my card reader, connected to one of the spare USB headers on the motherboard, would suddenly switch to low-speed upon inserting a card...

That doesn't say anything about XP users being eligible for the upgrade pricing. So why do I keep seeing people saying that we will be?

Right, I understand that since it isn't dual-band it won't be able to maintain N speeds on a mixed network. But everybody on BBR says it drops connections, crashes, won't remember settings, and so on ad infinitum.

Based on comments on this forum, I was thinking of buying a DLink DIR-655. I need an affordable gigabit N router with good QoS features. It seems to be highly recommended here. But on the forum at Broadband Reports (http://www.dslreports.com/forum/dlink), everyone seems to think it's anywhere...

To make a long story short, when I installed my XP system I did it on a disk that was already mostly occupied with a Linux system, and only had room for the main partition, no hibernate partition. Now, I'm getting ready to remove Linux from that disk, and I'd like to enable hibernation in XP...

I'm no network guru. But what I'm trying to do seems really simple, and I'm at a loss as to why it's not working. I recently bought a wireless network adapter for my desktop system and tried to set up an ad-hoc network with my laptop according to the directions at...

I bought an Inspiron 9300 in October 2005. In September of this year it developed a stuck column of pixels near the left edge of the screen. Searching the web led to the discovery that this was a widespread problem and tended to get worse. According to Dell's own website, they would replace...

I'm using the onboard audio hardware on my Intel D975XBX motherboard, with Windows XP Pro SP3 and the latest audio drivers downloaded directly from Intel. I have a question about the behavior of the SPDIF output. If I enable SPDIF in the "IDT Audio Settings" program, anytime I play a stereo...

How is a person supposed to find new threads in the For Sale forum with everybody bumping their posts every 6 hours? What would be wrong with restricting bumps to every few days, at most?

Still none available for shipping and none in at least half of Pennsylvania.

Not available for shipping, and not in stock near me :(

I bought one last month and it burns my old Sony 8x disks at 12x.

What does standard-definition from analog cable look like on this set? I don't have time to read 113 pages at AVS.

I installed this drive when I was looking for a replacement for a bad CD-R drive, and only recently tried to burn DVDs with it. So far I haven't found anything it'll burn at 16x. Memorex 16x DVD-Rs will burn at 4x and verify at up to around 5x, and Maxell 16x DVD-Rs will burn at 4x and verify...

Maybe I'm still asleep, but I don't see anything about a rebate.
