    WMP600 and bad Win7 performance

    Howdy folks, I recently bought one of these wireless cards, installed it and had it running happily on WinXP. I had probable 15-20 options under my drivers section, and now in Win7, i have roughly 5 or 6. Also, i went from having 4-5 bars of strength connected to my router, to having 1-2...

    tablet pc pimping to SSD and questions.

    My girlfriend recently bought a used HP Tablet TX1000 tablet on the cheap side. I'm not a big fan of the 5400 rpm hard drives, nor the 2 gigs of ram since it has vista. I was wondering 2 things 1) Will upgrading her to a 32 gig SSD drive be a big boost over her 5400 rpm drive? 80-90$ isnt a...

    GTX 280 and Age of Conan problems

    Plenty of threads on the AoC forums about this bug. When you adjust your graphics, it renders it unplayable somehow. Look into it.

    Best PXE solution out?

    Not to much, just some img's that are bootable already. Like DBAN, win98 bootdisc, winxp bootdisk, a linux OS or two, some other diagnostic software. Maybe some other imaging kind of software. Basically i'm looking for a veristial tool. And one that can be supported by someone who would come...

    a correct tenp reading?

    How do i go about getting a correct temperature reading? My speedfan says my Core is 47c. But my Ntune monitor reads my GPU at that temp also. How can i tell which is my cpu? Should i just OC it and watch one of them raise?

    How much of an improvement will i see?

    From what i have read, this e7200 at stock cooling can be pushed well past 3.0 ghz. So i'm not worried about that. And i'll probable end up buying something better then stock before long for it.

    How much of an improvement will i see?

    Yes i believe i can. I went from all low settings in age of conan to good upper mediums. I went from 18-19k in 3dmark 2001 to 43k. I just formatted my raptor and i'm slapping AoC on it now. I hope this will help with the load times. Overall i am thrilled with the outcome. My old power...

    How much of an improvement will i see?

    Ahh maybe it wasn't the right decision for you, but i felt it was and is. Its the right size, just fit some games on it. Was cheap. Win win. Now those may not be your criteria, but they were mine. :)

    How much of an improvement will i see?

    Well i got this hard drive for 89$. Thats about what i wanted to spend on a 10k rpm hd. So i'm thinking i'm alright. And i certianly hope its faster then a 5 year old 160 gig hard drive. :)

    Tough call

    I'd agree. So i guess my next question is, Whats cheaper then a core duo upgrade, around 150-200$ for both processor and motherboard. I've got 2 gigs of 533 ram, so i'm fine there.

    Not like people cant track you anywhere else through anything else if they really wanted too. But i dont agree with making a IP personal. It only makes us more dependant on something that can easily be smurfed.

    Any way i can push my LCD monitor past the 1280 cap supported by the drivers? If i try to manually push it, i have to scroll with my mouse over to side to show the full screen. Sort of like cropping.
