EDIT: Board has been sent in for replacement. I'm troubleshooting a new system that I am having problems with. IT booted ONCE the first time and never since then. I made it to BIOS and restarted because it wasn't showing my thumb drive. Mobo/Proc are Sabertooth X99 and i7 5820K. I have...

I need to build a server for a large format printer, and since I don't generally do server builds, I'm looking for some guidance... mainly on the processor, motherboard, and memory side. Here are the specs I was given: OS: Windows 7 Pro (64bit) CPU: 3.33 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon “Westmere”...

One of the monitors on our PowerMac G5 workstaiton is going out.... currently it's a cheapish Samsung but I would like to replace it with something that is appropriate for Graphic Arts work. Is IPS still the way to go? Is that what I should look for? Not sure what the budget is on this yet...

Welcome to my "I have a girlfriend now and don't need as much porn" sale! Actually, most of these weren't used for porn, but it sounds good. I have six drives for sale, and no two drives are the same, so read the details! PayPal or Amazon Payments works for me, to the address listed in my...

I know [H] has a rather limited set of smilies for a reason, and Kyle may prefer it that way... but how about a thumbs up/thumbs down icon? Or maybe just a thumbs up? I don't care that much for the thumbs down. I think it'd fit nicely in the 12 smiley box we have. And of course I know I can...

I mentioned this a while back, and it's a rare occurrence, but google seems to serve shitty adds from LowerMyBills.com that I don't think are relevant to your userbase (people smart enough not to click the stupid ads) It is the green box on the left.

Kyle, I'm usually not one to complain, but I know you try to keep your ads on here relevant and not annoying, which I appreciate. This add came up while I was sending a PM. Note I've only seen it ONCE so it could be a fluke or something, but thought you might like to be aware. When the ad...

I am pondering a video card upgrade, was wondering if it was worthwhile and what I should look at upgrading to. Here are system specs: CPU: Q6600 Mobo: Abit IP35 Pro Video Card 1: EVGA GeForce 8800 GTX 768 MB 384-bit GDDR3 PCIe x16 (main monitor) Video Card 2: GeForce 9500 GT or something like...

I'm relatively new to using RAID so I am not quite sure what the best solution is here. I built a computer for a friend who seems to suffer from frequent power outages. After he had a hard drive failure, I decided to put him on RAID 1. The other day the computer would not boot up, saying...

Hey guys, been folding away for a few months now off and on with my two ATI cards. One problem I have noticed is that when I use Remote Desktop to login to my work computer (the one folding), it crashes the F@H client and the F@H client reports a serious error whenever I log back on the work...

I am looking at replacing the storage device we have on our network here at work. It's only about 400 GB and starting to get full, however I am sure a lot of it is junk. Here is what I want: RAID (just mirroring) Size: At least 640 after mirroring, probably 1 TB We currently have a HP Proliant...

So when I updated the drivers for my ATI Radeon HD 4650 the other day, it allowed me to automatically install Folding@Home for GPU based folding. I figured, why the heck not.... might as well give it a shot. It could not have been an easier install--all I had to do was enter Team Number: 33 and...

I am looking at purchasing a T500 Laptop. It has a DisplayPort adapter. I was hoping to use a DisplayPort to HDMI cable to hook it up to a TV with a HDMI input. The description of the cable on Monoprice says this: Note: While DisplayPort connectors are capable of passing an HDMI signal...

Hey everyone, I'm hopefully going to be able to talk my boss (my dad) into upgrading my dinosaur of a work computer. I have a few specific questions I'd like to have answered... but first, the standard ones! 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Data processing and composing large variable...

Stupid question time... At work we have a server that was setup before I started working here. My dad claims that it is using RAID (whichever one is mirroring, gah, can't remember right now). It has two 160 GB drives. He believes that it was setup by whoever he had set it up to mirror the...

I have a friend that just bought the laptop here. He wants to upgrade the memory from 2 GB to 4 GB... but obviously it's cheaper to just buy one 2 GB stick instead of 2 x 2 B sticks. Would the Patriot or Crucial Memory on Newegg be compatible? I know the speed is right, but I was wondering about...

We've been having some of our computers at work (Windows XP SP3) showing that there are IP conflicts on the network. Now, as far as we know or as far as we can tell, there is no conflict with the IP addresses. Is there something we are missing that could be causing these conflicts? Maybe...

I think I've finally convinced my dad (the boss) to let me upgrade the system drive in my current computer for better performance and efficiency (my efficiency, of course). Right now I'm running: Dual Core Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz processor (whatever the proper name for that is... it's an older...

I'm looking to add a second card to my system, mainly to support three monitors. Also, I'm looking at nVidia currently because it seems it'd be best to stick with one set of drivers as opposed to mix and match (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) The mobo is a ABIT IP35 Pro. It supports two...

Argh, I really hate to be starting a new thread when there's so many here, but I'm still undecided after reading through several dozen threads :p So here we go What I want: A 24" Monitor, duh What I'm using it for: It will be in addition to 2 Gateway FPD2275W panels. These are pretty nice for...

Well I've long been in the wonderful world of dual monitors.... and I think I have convinced myself that I need a third :P IF I were to get something nice, it'd be used for gaming on the 360 and PC, plus watching movies. If I just went with something along the lines of what I have now (22"...

I have for sale a great condition Hubbel Nextframe Equipment Rack. The contents of this sale are exactly what is in that link. PRICE: $200 + SHIPPING The item was purchased in March 2007 brand new, but was replaced in December 2007. It has less than one year of use! There is no physical...

I have a few questions today.... can't really find an answer on the Microsoft site, and I didn't see my question addressed here either... - I have an install disk for Windows XP Pro, and a key of course. This is what I used on my old computer. I'm pretty sure it's just a standard XP Pro install...

I just spotted this, figured I'd post it. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826169003 I am a HUGE fan of this gamepad, and actually have two of these. You could probably get about $4 off with the paypal rebate, which could make this as low as $10 shipped after all the...

I go through a fair amount of DL discs on a regular basis. I have been using TDK discs with a good success rate (some saucers, but I don't think I would blame the media), but wouldn't mind finding something cheaper. Recently my brother brought home his collection of 100+ DVD's (originals, mind...

Sorry if this seems like a bit of a dumb question. I think I already know the answer, but would be nice to find out otherwise :D I am looking to build a relatively inexpensive computer for a business envrionment. I'm not really budget limited, but I would to build something with some decent...

OK, I know this is going to sound really odd, and it COULD be my imagination, but I think I'm having a problem with my quad core. I was playing WoW today while watching Pulp Fiction on the other screen in Windows Media Player. All of the sudden, things seemed to slow down and my frames dropped...

I am having trouble getting my 7.1 sound to work on my new computer. I am using a ABIT IP35 Pro with a built in Realtek HD Audio card, going to a Gigaworks S750. Currently, it seems my Right, Side Right, Side Left, and Rear Left channels don't want to work. They will ALL work if I plug the...

OK, I recently just completed my new computer, and have been having a few problems that I would like help with. I believe I have it narrowed down, but I wanted some second opinions from the minds at [H] just to make sure I get this thing fixed on the first try. First of all, the specs: Vista...

Well guys I think it's finally time to replace this aging dinosaur on my desk... I built it in July of 2003. Unfortunately I'm not quite as hardware savvy as I once was (or I just realize I'm not as hardware savvy as I thought I was) so I'm going to need a bit of help. I want to build something...

Well I've been considering upgrading my displays for a while, and I think it may be time. However after all the research I've done I'm starting to change my mind, and would like second opinions. First of all, I should mention I have a 19" Viewsonic CRT and 17" Dell CRT. It's a bit of a mismatch...

Well I'm needing help in an area I've never considered before.... my graphics card fan. The stock fan on my 9800 pro has failed/is failing (depending on its mood). My simple goal is to keep it running while gaming, and hopefully without spending too much money. I don't need super cooling...

Well guys, as the title says, I'm considering buying a PDA. I need some organizing, and since a hot blonde secretary is a bit too pricey, I might buy a PDA. I did a search, and it seems PDA threads are lacking :confused:, but hopefully I'll be able to get some experienced voices in here anyways...

Well since downloading CS:S about a week ago, I am hardly able to get a single good game going. Every server I go to, I suffer pauses every few seconds. The game is nearly unplayable (it's playable, but I suck!) My firewall is off, and I try for servers under 75 ping. I can't get...

So I started playing Eve about a week ago and it's been sorta fun. The lame part about it is losing ships!!! I'm in a corporation with a guy I know IRL. He's a bigger nerd about this than me, but that's OK, he seems to konw what he's doing. Well the problem is, he always talks me into going...

I know I'm going to shock the world on this one, but here goes: I have never played Counterstrike. Well, there ya go, I said it. Anyways, my reason for posting is because I'm mildly interested in checking out the HL/Counterstrike series of games, and I'm not sure where to start. I got Steam...

So my iPod seems to be officially borked. I can't get it to work or get the computer to recognize it for a restore. I looked into getting it repaired by Apple but since it is pats six months since buying it, they want me to pay shipping and handling. How much shipping and handling? $31+...

OK, I think I'm finally stuck in Oblivion. I'm on the Sanguine quest, where I have to cast the spell on the countess and her guests at the dinner party. I got in and everything, but I'm not doing something right. Any ideas how to do it?
