A month ago my computer shut down and started beeping. I turned the computer back on after a few minutes and checked the cpu temps and they were around 100C so I shut it down and opened it. The stock heatsink on my i7 920 was very dirty. The thing is I was drunk so when I tried putting it back...

Hey guys I'm trying to find a laptop for my mom under $400. It's obviously just for reading emails and watching videos, but I get confused with all the different reviews. The thing is I'm taking it to another country so the quality is a concern for me, I don't want it to break a month after I...

A friend asked me to help him buy one online but I have no idea about cameras. He said he's looking for a Nikon D3 or D300.

Hi i just broke my Sony Ericsson C901. I have no idea how i was veeery drunk. I can turn it on if i keep pressing the On button long enough and as long as its connected to the power outlet, but once its on only 2 buttons work and i cant get to my messages. Id be very thankful if someone could...

I was in google images and i look up at the right hand corner of the screen and see it's logged into an email i don't know. I check it out and it has only 5 mails a couple them talk about some forum none of them say anything important. Anyone got any ideas?

Sorry if this is a stupid question I haven't kept up with hardware for the past year can someone tell me what motherboard this is? Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Hi. I started to download some .mkv videos and as soon as I got the first one I opened it with VLC media player and it worked just fine. So I closed it and went to do something else. When I got back I tried to open the same file again and this time VLC would open but the video wouldn't even...

I'm sorry if this thread doesn't go here, I didn't know where to put it. Last night I got a strange email from facebook. The thing is my girlfriend left me about a month ago. I had her on facebook on one occasion, but that was many months ago, we removed each other from our facebook friend lists...

That seems way above normal isn't it? I'm using a stock cooler but other people with stock coolers say theirs idle at 50C so what can be wrong? Is 100C dangerous for the processor?

Sup I just moved to my dads house and set up my computer. It found the local wireless network and connected to it, but it only does so locally, it doesnt have access to internet. I tried the typicall solution of unplugging the modem and waiting for a while but it didnt work. Can anyone help me...

My mom broke my windows xp cd. I wanted to install it on her laptop since I'm no longer using it and since she's running vista which makes the laptop really slow. Since I still have the serial number, is it the same thing if I just download a windows xp iso from the internet and burn it on a...

Does anyone know if u can play LAN with civilization 4? If so I'll def get the game.

Sup I'm having a tough time getting my wireless connection to work on my new computer. It's very slow and disconnects randomly. Sometimes it even says it's connected but I can't use it at all. It's not a router problem because the same thing happens when I use my neighbour's connection whereas...

A few days ago out of nowhere I tried to sleep my computer and instead it just locked and went to the login screen. It keeps doing it. Really weird. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this?

I´m stuck with a laptop for a few days so I started replaying pokemon gold but I´m getting bored of it. Does anyone know a good game I can download?

Anyone got a review of these two's performance side by side?

I didn't actually take the time. It's random maybe. And annoying as fuck. My router is the famous LINKSYS WRT54GL. I'm sure this is a typical networking issue. Other people with wireless computers in my house don't experience this problem.

Under netstat I get minimum 30 entries. My internet is also very slow compared to what it should be and disconects every few minutes for no apparent reason.

Did this happen to anyone else? It's supposed to have 2, even shows it on the box. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188039

Or do they only send you the card? I RMA'd a GTX 295.

I read somewhere you can't connect a PS3 to this monitor even with an HDMI - DVI adapter for some reason. Maybe there's a way to connect the PS3 to my video card (gtx 295), and then out to the display? Or maybe it IS possible to use an adpter?

Sup I bumped into my computer table and for some reason had to remove the dimms and put them back in or the computer wouldnt boot. I have to reconfigure the memory but can't remember what I did in the first place. Does the memory frequency have to be related to the CPU speed? I'm using a core i7...

Can anyone assure me the CPU power cable on the Enermax Revolution 1050w will be long enough to go out through the back of my case and back in? I have to mount the PSU on the bottom, otherwise this wouldn't be a problem. My PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750w fails to do this. Otherwise, does the...

Sup so I wanted to start building my own website. I have no idea how this works. I downloaded Dreamweaver, but the only way to work with it seems to be writing the code line by line am I wrong? Doesn't this take too long? What do people use to build websites?

What's the best out of these 3? -Corsair 1000hx 1000w -Enermax Galaxy 1000w -Enermax Revolution 1050w I wanna buy the best modular power supply you can get. It's important too that it has long cables.

In case anyone knows an internet site that ships internationally. I'm having some temp issues.

I just built this computer. The front case fan is not working maybe thats why my card overheats a lot? Is this regulated somehow with some program through the motherboard or do I have to open the computer and just see if its plugged in incorrectly?

I just built the rig in my sig. It's the first computer i build. I did it fast not bothering about the cable mess i left behind and just plugged it in to see if it worked. Now I feel like reorganizing but am hesitant to pull the main power connector, it seems pretty tight. Is there something I...

I was gonna sell an old computer I have. I decided to keep one of its hard drives but later changed my mind and just plugged it back in. But when I turned it on all I got was a black screen and some long beeps from the motherboard. It was working fine before I removed the hard drive. Any ideas?

Sup I have this case and am about to buy this heatsink. Can anyone confirm me this will be ok?

They both freeze on the intro scenes, even before I get to take control. Even with shaders at medium and 1920x1080. Temps on both gpus are 60C idle. Anyone got any ideas?

I just built my computer. I installed the brand new Core i7 920, put the heatsink on and turned those four locks on the sides. The processor manual depicted an arrow with a downward motion. Was I supposed to push them down? I would also like to know if those three stripes under the heatsink are...

Today I showed my uncle my new GTX 295. Ain't gonna be able to try it till saturday. I've always been careful with static before touching my cards but I didn't realize to tell my uncle to discharge somewhere before looking at it. So know I'm wondering if it's probable that the card's been...

Sup I need some anti static bags asap. Anyone know where I can find some? Best buy maybe?

I'm inclined toward the Klipsch. Any advice?

Just thought I'd upload this :)

I just saw a video from 3DGAMEMAN on Youtube about this case where he says the motherboard tray doesn't come with holes for an aftermarket heatsink's retention bracket. Anyone with this case know if this is true?

I just bought a new comp at Newegg to replace my Pentium 4 and Radeon 9600. It's an i7 920 and a GTX 295. I haven't played any new games since Doom 3 cause my computer couldn't run them. What game should I buy first? Crysis? Crysis Warhead? Fallout 3? Give me some suggestions!

I'm staying up waiting :)

I'm on the verge of buying a new screen. I'd like to hear from some people who've tried the screen and know if the input lag is a serious issue or just something that a hardcore gamer would notice.
