Check out this video my brother made. I wonder if anyone else feels this sentimental about Mario 2. It was my favourite Mario game back in the day. http://digg.com/d31Qfbk

This has been driving me nuts forever. Every time I visit my parents house, I have to do a major cleanup of my dad's pc. I can't ever figure this one out. Any help would be appreciated. Notice the two 'Robert' profiles? The one that is actually used is the Robert.PC986... one. There is...

Pretty simple. Looking for an Athlon XP - slocket A cpu. One that works would be good. I'm also not looking to pay much for it. Also on the list is a power supply that is at least 300 watts. A beast, this computer will not be. But Doom 2 has low system requirements.

Well, I've done some google-ing and I've had no luck finding a fix for this. I've got a freshly formatted machine with SB Audigy SE and a Logitech 5.1 setup (it only uses analog). The Creative speaker setup program works and utilizes all the channels with the audio test... but nothing else...

Very annoying. I just installed Vista and there's no sound. I've got the onboard AC97 situation, and I've downloaded the latest drivers from Realtek. All the updates have been installed. I've googled this as much as I can, and it was a drivers issue for most people. The curveball here is...

Hey all, I just picked up a Toshiba 42HP86. I want to build an HTPC for it, but I'm testing a few things first. The display works alright when I hook up it up as a secondary monitor to my laptop. It does not work as a primary monitor on a tower I'm trying to use for now. It will show the...

Hey all, as the title says, it's time for me to buy a new television. The old tube is on it's way out. I've been looking at LCD's and plasmas all around, and I'm hoping to find a good 42" plasma screen, but they're all going for close to 2 grand. I don't want to get a no-name plasma. I'm...

The other day, while Christmas shopping, a friend and I decided to give ourselves a break and play some Street Fighter III. So, we headed over to the arcade and had a blast. While I was walking around the arcade, I started wondering where all the new games are. Other than DDR, there weren't...

I'm looking for an iPodmin, nano, or regular one for my little sister for Christmas. My budget is $120. PM me with any offers.

Linksys support = shit. Okay, so this is the second WRT54G (v6) I've had. I returned the first one because of this problem that I'm having, and clearly it's something in the settings. The firmware is the most up to date stuff on there. I'm using wireless channel 11. The beacon interval and...

So, I thought I'd try out the crack addiction that is WOW. I'm finding it to be totally boring. What's the big deal with it? Why does everyone sell their souls for this game?

Will you be pre-ordering a Wii? What games are you getting at launch? Has anyone heard abything about pre-orders yet? I'll be getting super Mario Galaxy and Zelda for sure. The sports games look really fun too.

Okay, so I've been having some issues with windows. It's kind of hard to explain, but it's driving me nuts... so here goes. 1. I always get the stupid password screen when I start up.. even though I'm the only user and I have no password (I even have tweakUI set to auto login as me)... but it...

Concerning front panel chassis cables (HDD led, pwr sw, etc)... is the colour postive and white negative? This is driving me nuts because I should know, but I don't and I can't find in anywhere. My google skills are sucking right now.

Or do you not use any at all? I prefer NOD32. I've seen it grab stuff that everything else missed, and it uses next to no resources.

I don't really know much about LCD's except that I'll be buying one shortly. It's going to be on a high(er) end gaming rig. I want to do 19 inch widescreen. Would 12ms cut it, or should I go for 8ms? Also, am I really going to see a huge improvement with DVI vs VGA? I've got my eye on this...

New black 30GB ipod. engraving = back back down low punch, zangief funeral. 416 canadian total, with extended warranty included. It should arrive around Halloween. I'm getting 350 canadian for my current 20GB photo, with the extended warranty, and an iskin. YES!

Just got a GST cheque in the mail I will be going to buy a Gamecube with Super Smash Brothers included, as well as some Metriod Prime, and Resident Evil 4. I'm pumped. A little late in the game, I realize, but what can you do?

Hey, I just bought the laptop in my sig. The problem I'm having is this. I can't get the network card to work properly. The wireless one works great, but the wired one (Broadcom 440x 10/100 integrated controller) isn't working right. The computer thinks it's working fine, but when I plug...

So I just got my i9300 in the mail the other day. I formatted the hard drive and started fresh. I've got all the latest drivers from dell's website. I've also got a little problem. I've been trying to play Half-Life 2 on it, with all the settings maxed (that's what it automatically chose...

I just bought an Inspiron 9300 with the 256mb 6800 go. Does anyone know how this compares to the desktop 6800? What core config does Dell use in these cards? Is it the 300/300 or 450/600? How well will this machine handle the games of goodness? specs PM 740 (1.73 GHz, 533FSB) 1gig of dual...

I just ordered an Inpiron 9300 from dell. It's coming with an 80GB 5200RPM drive. I was reading some reviews, and one of the reviewers had recieved a 4200RPM drive instead of the 5200RPM one he ordered. So, needless to say, I'm going to want to check to make sure mine is the proper speed when...

Pretty self explanitory I think. I'm looking for whatever is going to properly run any video out there, without media player having to try and download the right codecs. I want something professional (especially if I'm going to have to pay for it)... not something like aCe MeGa CoDEczz!!!>!11...

I'm looking and seeing only 2 BF2 threads on the first page. This is good news for the people who play more than one game.

Hey, I'm looking to buy a card with stereo/video av inputs on it (you know, the red, white and yellow goodness). I'm going to be uploading some footy I've shot to make a video. The cheapest way I can do this is get a TV tuner card with inputs. I'm not sure if this will capture video AND...

Has anyone ever had a dream about games? Last night I had a dream that I was walking around in 3rd person view and I had the blue and red mana things at the bottom of my vision - daiblo style. It was fucked.

So I bought a USB adapter for my PS2 controllers on my computer. It worked fine for a while, but suddenly one of my controllers stopped working properly. It's totally messed. It thinks the buttons are being constantly pressed and the axis are all messed. So, I started using my other...

Hey, as the title states, I need to add a password to a program. Basically, a member of my family isn't responsible enough to use MSN Messenger, and I need to make the program password protected. How can I do this?

Does anyone know where I can find a silicone skin for the new 20GB iPods? Apparently they're the exact same dimensions as the 30GB photo iPod's were. I can't find any cases that are specifically designed to fit it. I tried two that claimed to fit any 20/40 gig or any 40/60 gig photo. Neither...

I'm going to be buying one of the new colour 60GB iPod's in a couple of days. I've heard that an iPod will only work with one copy of iTunes. So basically, if I have it, I can only hook it up to my computer at home OR the iTunes on my computer at home will only work with my iPod. Is this true?

I'm probably buying an ipod today. It's going to be one of the new colour 20gb ones. How much space do you actually get for music? How much goes to software and firmware or whatever?

I think it would be a good idea if there was a [H]ard Forum search engine for the Firefox search bar. That would be quality. Anyone?

I had to reinstall my Far Cry game. When I try to run it, it shows the splash screen and then it goes black for a second, and then back to windows. So I go to install the latest patches, and when I do up the 1.3 it says "setup has detected that you've already uninstalled a patched version of...

Just waiting for Steam to load. You know.

So I just got Mario Kart and Castlevania: circle of the moon, and my gameboy will not keep the saved games. I'll make it to a savepoint, save, and then play. When I turn the gameboy off, my saved games are gone. Does anyone know how to remedy this situation? If it requires opening either...

Has anyone else played this friggin' tease? You've gotta stack these blocks, and if you can get to the top, you can win crazy shit like a PSP or a digital camera. I played it on my break and spent 5 bucks losing. Has anyone won anything other than the crappy bracelets?

Hey, I've got a gigabyte geforce fx 5900xt. I'm not going to be spending any more money on my computer until it can't run certain games. I've never overclocked a video card before, so I'm wondering what would be the best way to overclock it? Can I somehow flash the bios to 5950? What program...

I have a little sister. She's in serious trouble for about 30 different reasons, and she's no longer allowed to use the computer for communicating with certain kids. I need to find out how to block websites like nexopia, myspace, and all that. We're using Firefox. Is there anyway to do...
