I'm getting a laptop with 2 audio inputs and 1 output, and I was wondering if there was any way I could use my z5300 speakers (currently on my desktop rig with an xfi xtrememusic) with this laptop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

got it. it was javaquickstarter

would it have something to do with the network connection because of what the errors say?

I checked the event log and got this: "Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the Roxio Hard Drive Watcher 9 service to connect." -- system error. I tried rebooting with this service disabled and then again with it automatic to no avail. "Unable to open the Server service. Server performance...

Hi I've been having this problem where my system essentially hangs at the welcome screen for a bit then displays solely my background for a minute or two with no HDD activity, then loads normally. I tried disconnecting all my USB crap to no avail. I've also run spyware/virus scans in safe...

Can you PM me it? Thanks a lot. So there's no studdering with these drives? How is samsung with firmware updates?

Thanks for the confirmation. Can you point me to the exact drive it is?

for the configs I'm looking at for the m1330, its a $125 upgrade to the 128gb SSD. I'm strongly considering just buying a 60gb vertex for $200 because I'm really worried about system stuttering. Do you guys think that'll be a problem? If not, I'll probably just go with the drive dell gives...

I understand these drives have the same controller so they probably have the same level of performance, but which one is the better buy? They're both at the same price point ($200 for 60gigs), but I can't find any review directly comparing them nor have I heard much about the gskill in general...

i am thoroughly impressed

can you guys think of any glossy HDTVs 22-26" that are <$450?

I'm considering buying the Samsung T260HD because I need a tv and a monitor to hook my laptop up to in college. I'm not going to be gaming on this monitor, only using it as a screen for internet surfing, docs, email, etc. I'm aware of how much input lag sucks for gaming, but will it be annoying...

what do you guys think about the brightness? That was the only complaint i saw in earlier reviews.

haha and i thought a 20" was big

yeah im using like 40gigs including a hibernation file

What would you recommend then?

Hey guys I'm shopping around for TVs for my dorm room that will function both as a tv and as a monitor to use with my laptop (Which has a hdmi connection). I was looking at this because of the 1080p capability, but it's only 22". By the way the laptop I'll be using will have a smaller res...

is it a bad idea to have a 40/60gb used in a ssd concerning reliability down the line?

Oh and one more thing (2 actually): 1) the vertex definitely doesn't studder right? 2) Is there any worry about this drive lasting upwards of four or five years? (College) I see that the warranty is only for two years and I know MLC are apparently less reliable than SLC

Thanks greengoose. When it comes can you look at the drive and see exactly which one it is?

I can't really find any reviews of this one, but do you guys this SLC http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147056 is better than the MLC Vertex 60gb (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4364404&CatId=4147)

what's really the difference between a vortex and one from the middle of the pack? Somewhat substantial?

Since the upgrade to an SSD from dell is only like $200, is it worth spending $150 on top of that to ensure that I'm getting a legit SSD?

Hi I currently have a 74gig (8mb cache) raptor in my desktop, and I'm going to switch to a notebook for college. I was wondering how the 7200rpm drives (200+ gigs...no idea how much cache is on them. The ones included with the dell laptops) compare to the raptor. I really don't want to notice...

The cable goes directly to the tuner card, which is pci x1. I've setup and re-setup the card in Sage, with no luck.

I just installed SageTV because the Cyberlink PowerCinema 4.0 software I've been using for the past few years just started crapping out. The problem is that it doesn't recognize any channels. When I scan, the channels register under the program guide, but I can't change to any of them because...

Hey guys, haven't been here in months, but I want to revisit a problem that I forgot about a while ago (likely because I couldn't figure it out). When I place my computer in standby mode, when I turn it on, I find my cpu temp is high because the pump doesn't work -- it's just not getting power...

DFI ultra d? PM me if you are interested.

What about an opteron 165 that does 3ghz on air?

yeah that kit dominates. I <3 mine

hows gigabyte's warranty?

well is it worth it when it falls?

i had em in the psu, but they were spinning too quickly so I just plugged one into the cpu fan header (im watercooled) and undervolted the others.

how does the dfi compare to the abit IP35 Pro?

you can do better in pricing... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813127030 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231122 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231145

i know there are gurus out there...

anyone?

Hey, I'm going to be using a penryn quad core cpu, 2 (or 4) gigs of ddr2, and an 8800gt (but I'll probably wait for something later) and it's going to be watercooled (if that even matters). I've been out of the loop for a while and have seen so many boards on the market. My main priorities are...

I'm using an ati theatre 550pro and an xfi xtrememusic sound card. Sometimes there are really bad audio sync issues, where the audio is off by half a second or so. It's unbelievably annoying. My friend who's really experienced with tv tuners said it was a sound card related issue. Can anyone...

goddamn i wish evga/xfx would make a shorter card.
