Hello all. I have a pc with dual boot (windows xp + ubuntu). To make a long story short, I had a drive that I was using as backup storage. It was accidentally converted to a basic drive (in windows xp) by a friend... It was not formated. Ultimately I'd like to "recover" the data. Does...

Hey guys. I've had a few discussions with friends and family regarding recording of video. Everything from transferring VHS to PC, and recording Xbox 360 games into a montage. The budget is not so important. I have a limited amount of money, true, but would consider spending more $ as if it...

This is not to inflame or create panic. But I like to think that the [H] is about smart choices/conversations and generally being informed. From Slickdeals.net: "Major Rebate Processor Files For Bankruptcy: Deal Rebates May Be Affected"...

I found an all in one installer for LAMP/Joomla and other common sets. I realize for serious servers this might be too general, but I thought it was a neat concept none the less. http://bitnami.org/

Requirements: Working on a budget gamer. The stickied posts were very helpful. The goal is to stay under $500. This is for a friend that wants to do some (racing simulation) gaming. He is also interested in possibly putting together a portfolio with some 3d rendering. There is a good...

Hello all. Running dd-wrt for 6 months now but have a new issue that I'm trying to get past. I've been tinkering on a small home server with static ip running SME server (which is based off of CentOS-->Redhat). I set up the router to do port forward from the ip to the server. Also, enabled the...

This is a question for those that were sophisticated enough to buy a Logitech G9. Individuals that understand it's truely stunning looks. Champions if you will. But this post is NOT for those lowly individuals who compromised on some 'other' type of input device that is often referred to as...

Planning on setting up a firewall/router. Theoretically, could a P3 1.2 Ghz, 512 mb ram, run six dual nics (12 ports) under load? edit* rephrased question

Hello guys. I need a solution to measure the sound transfer from two adjacent units, in a building that is being constructed, to determine if any sound proofing needs to be added. Currently there are tenants in the units. One concern might be if I use a pc to record sound files over a long...

Has anyone fit a BFG 8800GTX OC into a Lian-Li PC-A05B case? ...Without some kind of a chainsaw mod?

Has anyone here recorded some of their games? I'm trying to find a way to record some of my game play. Checking Google turned up Fraps and other pay software. I'm OK with that, btw. Would also like to consider what is actually worth the money if I do buy something. Then again if there is...

Canon SD1000 (Elph) screen is not showing a picture. It is dark. All pictures are "black". Number 1012 in bottom right hand side of screen. Is this an error code? Tried resetting it but no use. Any ideas?

Looking to finish what I had started previously. My original Philosophy (not necessarily logical) was to get as close to 3 gigs as possible, without overclocking, with as many cores as possible, not to exceed $500 on the cpu. It's for multi use (gaming business personal). No water cooling...

Sup gamer doods. My friend's son is about to enter the online arena (xbox 360). He is actually pretty good and often recieves a lot of comments (from good to bad). There will always be negative comments, however, I was trying to keep the online experience somewhat positive. I'm not too...

I remember reading about a p4 mobo that came with multiple nics (more than 2). Im pretty sure they were add on cards. For the life of me I can't seem to remember what it was :rolleyes: . Was it gigabyte? I tried google, but to no avail. Does anyone out there remember? ..remember ...what...

I just wanted to know if this has been done or being worked on. Specifically for an increase in folding results. Unfortunately, this thought lands around the time of April Fools. Thus making it potentially flamable. Although I dont mind a little humor, I don't think anyone can contest or...

How does a case with an inverted motherboard affect temperatures of motherboard components? Here is one that I found interesting: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811112130 Motherboard with heatpipe: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131025...

Found this card at ewiz by chance. look at the heatsink and the fan connector. I thought this might be a good overclocker. Kinda crappy specs though. At $100 it might not be a big risk. Has anyone bought this card? Sorry, I didn't google anything yet, but I didn't want to loose the thought...

Has anyone had any luck running a mobile PIII in a desktop? The chips apear to be different sockets. But only because, from the looks of it, intel 'turned' the actual (direction of the) silicon . I did google this but didn't find anything. My first thought is that there is a different...

Has anyone heard of hardware loosing "speed" over time? I spoke with an IT at a major college in Chicago about this. Here we have someone that is an expert. But it just doesn't sound right to me. So as your system gets older it looses speed he tells me. I didn't argue with him because...

Hello all. I have a dual xeon mobo (socket 604) that I need help identifying. The only writting on it says CT Label c464 and SFCF label that I can see (checked both sides). It has: 1 pcie-xpress (x16) adaptec scsi chip (2 connectors) onboard sound (winbond chip) probably gigabit lan -...

Which was faster the intel P3 1.4ghz with 512 cache or the amd (athlon?) 1.4 (with ddr memory?)? Assume the same generation. I had to choose either the amd or intel camp. So if by chance the intel was faster please know that I did not post to cause a flame war. Just curious. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys I was reading the power supply faqs. They are pretty good. The calculator is neat but needs to be updated for pci and 2 gigs of ram. Anyway the system Im looking at for a friend has this on the side: Delta Electronics Model: DPS-300pb-1a Input: 100-127v ~ /8A 200-240V...

I want to buy a 3700 for my socket 754 mobo. Can you run a mobile A64 on a desktop mobo? Is anyone out there doing this? A few reasons I ask. One is they have the same specs, but the mobile the one that comes pre-decapped. Heh, probally not a word, but I think you understand my meaning...

The other day I was thinking about the my video card... I'm certain that it will be the last AGP card I buy. This post explains why: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=968333 This is interesting though that ISA was replaced with PCI (or slowly less used). AGP went to 8x and is now...
