I recently bought a Sony SXRD 50" and tried connecting it to my pc using a DVI to HDMI cable. I'm able to display in 1080p and it looks awesome but the image is slightly zoomed in on the horizontal. The start button is missing and so is about 1" on the right. I can't seem to find a way to...

Selling a Vapochill LS, it's 16 months old. 8 months warranty left. $500 Canadian (Ottawa region)

Looking for some advice. My comp stopped posting about a month ago. And I can't figure out what's wrong. It stopped working while I was browsing the web, video went blank and got a loop sound coming from the sound card. Never posted since. Here's the problem, I get no post, no video, no pc...

I'm looking for an external laptop HD / enclosure to use with Dell C600 laptops. I've heard that some drives suck too much power from the usb and don't work properly? I'm not sure if this is true or not. Is 7200rpm too fast, should I stick with 5400rpm or even 4200rpm? Another department...

After many years of wanting a vapochill LS I've finally decided to get one! From all the threads I've read DFI sli seems like the best mobo out there for O/C'ing? Are there any other good ones? As for memory I was thinking of picking up some Mushkin redline. I can get them for a really...

Edit: A8N-SLI Premium I've been trying to o/c my 4400+ and noticed the vcore when set to 1.55v is being reported at 1.500/1.520. Both by pc probe and cpu-z. It does this with any other voltage too. Are others experiencing this?

Anyone else experiencing this? I can overclock core 0 to 2600mhz anything above prime95 will fail. Core 1 is stable to 2675mhz. I ran Prime95 and set the affinity to either processor to test this.

Anyone try to put AS5 on their 7800GTX? What were the temp differences, overclock difference? Last time I did this (6800 Ultra) the temps went down significantly and overclock went from 440/1250 to 485/1385 (Benchable). Edit: Forgot to mention that was with the Ultra Extreme bios...

Tried to search for this but couldn't find the answer. How do you configure an application to run on a particular core? I'm guessing it's an option/flag in a shortcut? This is for an x2 processor. Is there any way to get windows to run only on 1 core? And say run a game on the other?

Been playing around with this new 4400+ I got today. Temps seem more than fine 30C idle and 40C full load both cores. Even with O/C'ing max temp I've seen is 44C. I'm using an XP-120 with high volume Panaflo. My 8xn-sli has bios version 1005. Anyone have a better experience with other...

Anyone else having problems with TigerDirect? I ordered 2x XFX 7800GTX OC from them on Sunday. They still haven't shipped but they assure me they're in stock. So I called to cancel the order and I can't cancel it? They said its too late to cancel? I would have to receive the product then...

I need some advice on cooling for a new rig I'm building: Asus 8xn-SLI deluxe 4000+ SD 2 x XFX 7800GTX 490/1300 Will the XP-120 fit without obstructing anything, or am I better off with an XP-90? I plan on using all ram slots. In terms of a fan how noisy is the Panaflo high speed...

I bought a WD 160GB a few weeks ago and recently tried to install an OS on it. It won't boot off this drive no matter what I do. I get the message cannot load operating system. One thing to mention is the drive was intially formatted through windows xp. When I ran into the problem I fdisked...

I was wondering if there's a way to change the default application priority in winxp? Like certain applications will use 100% of your cpu and make multitasking impossible. Unless I'm running a game I don't want any application to have maxiumum priority. Is this possible?

Is there anyway I can confirm the AGP/PCI lock is working? Every software I have doesn't report the pci/agp speed (Sandra / CPUID / CPUZ / PC Wizard) I'm using bios 1.3 Does MSI or someone else make a software to overclock or can you only o/c in bios?

Hey guys, Bought an A64 3200+ today. First time running an AMD since k6-2 days... Anyway the bios and cpuz detect the cpu as running at 2200mhz (11x200) I don't get it. Doesn't the 3200+ run 10x200? Temperture is 57C on idle so i'm gonna check the AS5 to make sure it didn't get...

So I've been reading hundreds of posts and dozens of reviews about athlon 64 and ram and I can't decide on what ram to get. Some reviews say ocz 4000el won't even go past 3200 speeds on athlon64... I see people saying everywhere the memory timings advertised by manufactuers only apply to...

I've been seeing a lot of news bits here and there about intel/amd's upcoming processors will be dual core. What advantage will these cpu's give us? Currently dual processor setups barely give any advantage unless an application was specifically designed to use it. I'm just curious if...

Title pretty much says it all. I was going to buy a 6800GT but I can't find anyone with it in stock (Canada) and one store had the ultra's in stock so I caved in... Recommended power supply is 480 watts. You guys think I should be ok? All I have in my system is a HD with CDRW.

For those running a 6800GT on a p4 2.4b/533 with agp 4x what type of performance are you getting in the lastest games (Far Cry / Doom 3)? I've read through the Doom 3 Hardware guide and all the tests were conducted on p4's were p4c/800 or prescott with agp 8x so I'm wondering Is AGP 4x going...
