I recently purchased a barbones MSI laptop, ms-1651, from ebay. It doesn't come with wireless so I added an Intel 5300 card. The problem is that as soon as I install the drivers for the wireless my system instantly blue screens. I have had this issue with Vista x64 and Windows 7 x64. The...

I just moved my system to a new case today. I have 4 sata hdds that I made sure I hooked up in the same way they were before I did the migration. Initially when I fired things up in the new case I could boot into Windows but now after a few reboots I get a message to the effect of boot disk...

I just recently purchased the Asus p5n32-e sli plus. It has a similar layout to the striker and uses heatpipes (although not as nice as the striker's) to cool the NB, SB and voltage regulators. pics of the board My problem is this: I bought a Scythe Infinity to use on this board but...

I have recently been mulling the decision of whether I should upgrade my video card. I don't plan on upgrading the rest of my system (in my sig) for awhile but I was thinking that I might get a decent performance upgrade from a new video card. Games I play: Supreme Commander DOD:Source...

I just recently upgraded to a crossfire mobo and so I thought maybe someone would like a nice 939 SLI motherboard. EPOX 9NPA+SLI - $65 shipped Sold (specs) This motherboard was able to get a pretty nice overclock for my opteron 165 and I was very pleased with its performance. I just...

I got a Connect3d x1900GT a few weeks ago and I would like to see what I can do overcocking. I put a vf-900 on it and it stays really cool. It's about 40C stock and 55C under load. I think I could probably up the voltage a bit but I don't know what the upper limit is for this core in terms of...

I would really like to add an intake to my P180. I was thinking about mounting a 120mm fan in the 5.25" bays. I saw this Scythe product on Newegg here and I like the idea but I can't really see spending $20 on that when I would be replacing the fan anyway. Does anyone know of a similar...

I just "upgraded" to an Abit AT8 32X from an Epox 9NPA+SLI. At the same time I switched motherboards I also threw in 2 Seagate 320gb SATA drives to replace some PATA drives that I have been running for a few years. Ever since I made the switch I have had terrible problems with stability. I...

I just recently switched from an Epox 9npa+SLI to the AT8 32X because I'm contemplating going with a Crossfire system. Well on the 9NPA+ I could hit an HTT of 277 with a 9x multiplier (2493 mHz) at ~1.45V (the default voltage setting on the mobo) but on the AT8 I can't get the same speeds. I...

So I just installed a new motherboard and I booted up and reinstalled Windows. Once I was in Windows I noticed that one of my PATA drives wasn't showing up. I had the case open and I looked over and saw that I forgot to plug power into the drive. So without thinking I just reached down and...

I would like to move my vf-900 to a new graphics card but I am not sure how to reattach the ram heatsinks. They come with thermaltape on them but I'm sure that after a few months on my old card they won't be sticky enough to work on the new card. How can I reattach them? Woud...

Simply put I am looking for a way to convert a bunch of images from tif to bmp. I am a biochemistry graduate student and for an experiment I took pictures of cells as uncompressed tifs with a camera attached to our microscope. In order to analyze the data I need to convert these images to...

Can anyone tell me the best way to check my Vcore? If I check it with CPUZ or Speedfan it reads ~1.44V (with some fluctuation) but GCPUID and Coretemp both say 1.35V (stable reading). I have my Vcore set in my bios to default which should be 1.35 so I'm curious to know which is correct so I...

So I just moved to a new townhouse and it has an upstairs and downstairs which I didn't have before. I set up my primary computer downstairs and I have a second computer upstairs. There wasn't room for my printer downstairs so I put it with the upstairs computer. The only problem is I don't...

I'm moving a bunch of mp3's and such around from one drive to another and I want an app or a way to copy them other than copy and paste. I'm a little worried that a straight copy and paste might leave some files corrupted and I don't really want to have to go back and check each individual...

I've been overclocking my 165 and thus far I've been mostly keeping it at stock voltage. After running it at ~1.5v for awhile I started paying closer attention to my voltages. I noticed that at Idle the vcore in CPUZ is about .05v higher than it is under load. I'm not sure if this is normal...

I was looking for a memory upgrade on newegg and I noticed that the open box RAM is significantly cheaper than the retail or OEM version. Would anyone suggest buying open box RAM? I'm wondering if maybe there might be anything wrong with it (improperly overclocked by former owner, etc).

I purchased a Sapphire x800GTO2 in February from Newegg. The card performed well initially. I was able to overclock it to x850 XT PE speeds with no trouble and it had 16 pixel shader pipes (instead of 12) right out of the box. However recently it's been acting up. After a little heavy gaming...

I just bought a Scythe Ninja to replace my stock HSF and I thought maybe someone on the [H] might want the old cooler. It's in perfect shape. I'll even clean the thermal paste off it. I'm willing to part with this for $10 + shipping. This is negotiable. If you are in the Rochester, NY...
