    Difference between Toshiba Satellite and Satellite Pro

    I keep searching and can't find what the differences are. Is the case and keyboard exactly the same? What does Pro have to cost a little more?

    UPS sizing

    I just had a power outage kill my PS3(wasn't even ON). So while shopping for a UPS for my future PS3 I had an idea of also getting one for my PC. I found this and it's plenty for a PS3. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102116 255W I'm also thinking of getting one for...

    Hanns·G HG-281DPB Black 28 $339.99

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254026 It was $399.99 recently and now just changed to $339.99. Nice price for a 28" screen. I bit since I'm still using a 20" LCD. This will make my TV/movies look much better. Hopefully my 4870 can push the games at that...

    LIAN LI PC-60BPLUSII

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112116 I'm shopping for a new case and made up my mind on this Lian Li. I wanted to double check that it will work fine with long video cards. I'm planning on putting a 4870 in it to start off, but will eventually step up to a 4870x2...

    American Conquest won't play

    I get an error immediately after installation. When I click on the shortcut I get a black screen. Then I Ctrl-Alt-Del and I see dmcr.exe is running at 50% CPU and nothing is happening. I googled and found some solutions but none worked. WinXP SP2 and rest of the specs below. I also...

    http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=10007112 I thought it was a good deal. I ordered one. It comes with 4 6+2pin PCIe power connectors. My supply only has 2 6pin ones. Comes out a little more then what I paid for my 650W Antec Trio. At the time of buying I...

    DVDs burn really slow

    All of a sudden it takes 25min to burn DVDs when it took 5min before. I went through many different disks so it's not the media. I did many different movies. I reinstalled Nero twice and the second time it was a newer update. I reinstalled the mobo drivers. It says it's burning at 16x, but...

    Abit's MIR

    I'm wonder how long does it usually take to get one and does it show up online? I've sent mine in at least 6 weeks ago. It was $30 from newegg. It's still not showing up on their site as processed. I don't care so much for the $30, but it was the reason why I went with that mobo over a...

    How to see what version of Company of Heroes I have?

    I'm trying to patch it to the latest version and I have to sequentially download all the patches. Kinda gay that there isn't one final patch. I can't see where it says what version it is. Do I just assume it's 1.0. I have to start with the patch that corresponds to my version.

    Abit IP35PRO sound issues

    Every now and then mostly when I watch movies I get this noise that sounds like wind blowing. Really annoying. I thought I had some scratched up DVDs because it only did it when watching movies. Now it did it for the first time when playing a game. I had it for almost a month. Same noise on...

    FEAR extraction point max resolution?

    I played FEAR @1680, but the expansion won't let me play above 1280. There isn't any higher resolutions listed. Both games are on the same DVD. What's the deal? I haven't tried the 2nd expansion pack yet. I hope it will let me play @1680.

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813127030 That's the deal I got on last month. I thought the rebate will be back so here it is. An amazing board for not much money after the rebate.

    question about registering games on STEAM

    They sell Bioshock so just like I did with FEAR and HL2 I can register it on there to keep forever? I just bought it and it didn't recognize the serial. The game installed fine so the serial works.

    question about the optical out

    When I connect my receiver to the optical out on my mobo is that sound already processed or will the receiver do that? I'm wondering if I can improve my sound with a sound card. I'm not into computer speakers so I always only use the optical out to the receiver which feeds my home theater...

    Help installing Ultima 90

    I have an Ultima90 and this is my first time installing a socket 775 heatsink. I'm following their instructions. I put the pillars in the multi-backplate and put the o-rings on them to hold them in place. When I go to put the bracket mounts I can't tighten them enough. There are gaps between...

    Do mobos come with screws?

    So I have all my parts and I'm like a kid in the candy store starting to put my new PC together. Everything is brand new except I'm reusing my old case. I'm about to put the mobo in the case and I have no screws. I sold my old mobo months ago and I've build a PC 4 years ago so I don't...

    4pin vs 8pin cpu connector

    Does it matter if a mobo only has a 4pin cpu connector? I'm trying to decide between a gigabyte and abit and one has a 4pin and the other 8pin connector. Right now I have a E4400, but in the future I want to get a 45nm quad. Just want to make sure the 4pin will have enough power.

    Good tool to cut holes?

    http://www.buy.com/prod/case-mod-metal-cutting-nibbler-tool/q/loc/101/10362758.html I'm wondering if this is any good. I want to cut a hole at the top of my case to exhaust hot air. Possibly put a fan if I can fit it. So I need a somewhat good circle.

    Will P35 prices drop anytime soon?

    Anyone care to speculate? Now that X38 is out and took the top spot I was hoping for P35 mobos to come down in price. I'm mainly hoping for the Abit IP35 Pro to come down a bit. Will the release of IX38 QuadGT possibly lower the price of IP35 Pro?

    Good dust filters?

    I want to keep my next PC as dust free as possible. I'm probably getting a COOLER MASTER Stacker RC-832. So I need to get a couple 120mm dust filters. Where and which? I searched, but couldn't come up with anything. Thanks.

    No picture

    I got this PC that I'm working on. I just got the case and I plugged it into my old 17" CRT. It boots up with no beeps, but there is no signal to my monitor. I thought maybe the video card went out so I swapped my old AGP card and still the same thing. There were two memory sticks, one 1GB...

    ATi R600 vs 8800GTX - New Test & Scores (X2800XTX - X2800XT)

    Quote: LAST WEEK, WE GOT the R600 driver code that we dissected and inside we found four cards based on DAAMIT chip. We wrote about it here and here. Now we may have figured out what all four cards are but now it looks now there will be even more than four. If ATI makes the Uber edition...

    Recommend me headphones for under $100

    I'm going to be watching movies and playing games with them when I can't use the speakers. They will be plugged into my H/K 525 receiver's Phones jack. So I don't know if that means they'll be amped or not.
