I have an older Dell that could use a new videocard for games and I had settled on the HD7770, but my motherboard only supports PCIe 1.0. I realize they are technically backward compatible, but I was wonder whether it would negate performance increases for gaming.
Here is the mobo...
This summer I'll be working in several different states, and I want to only bring my Lenovo S10 netbook with me. It has XP Home on it right now, and I'll probably put Ubuntu Netbook Remix on it soon (160gb HD, 2gb Ram)
I'd like to be able to both control and have full access to the files on...

at least 1mp webcam
at least wireless g

Let me know prices and link me to your feedback. I'm going to pick up a nes and snes (my roommate is shipping out) and all my N64 stuff was stolen except the console itself and its expansion, so any 64 controllers would be good too.
Wanted List:

So I was installing my new Seagate drive today, and decided to follow its instructions. This worked fine until I let it partition my new hard drive, where the program included on the disc decided to do a quick format (I am guessing) on my Raid set (shows up as unpartitioned E drive now). :mad...
I'm just looking for a good film camera with a mid-range lense for now, since I can't afford a digital rebel.
Bodys:
$135 K2
$190 (170 MIR) T2
$300 Elan 7N
My understanding is that each one is worth the price over the lower model
Also, what lense should I get to with them? Are the kit...

How is the price performance on these subs, and is there a cost shelf at which I could get a much better one (under $250)? And compared to the...
I will be travelling to Europe next month (mainly Germany), and am looking for a beginner SLR set up. Right now I am looking at a Canon EOS Rebel T2 body and a Canon Zoom Wide Angle-Telephoto EF 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 USM Autofocus Lens. I haven't read reviews of the body, but it is a bit more...
I am looking for a good TV tuner under $200. I will mainly use it for recording TV (so a schedule program would be nice). Coaxial and regular component video input would be nice, along with a TV. I have a Leadtek WinFast TV 2000xp (something like that), it used the WinTV software which I really...
My Windows has gone completely unbootable twice in the last two weeks. I had to get into the recovery console and do chkdsk. Both times it found 3+ errors and fixed them. Both times after chkdsk it would boot into windows fine. Also, at least one of my hard drives spins up followed by a quick...
Right now my sister is looking at these cameras:
Canon Powershot S1 IS
Minolta Dimage A200
Nikon Coolpix 8400
Perrux 750Z
Olympus C765
Olympus C8080
Any recommendations as to which to get?
I am leaning towards the C765 because myself and several others all love the C750
I am using Azureus. I opened ports 21 and 6969 on my router, and have the tracker set for port 6969. For some reason, other people can not download the file. My firewall is off (temporarily).
Here is the torrent file I am testing with...

Thoughts?

Is there an option somewhere that allows you to control what happens when you press the power button on the case? My new computer shutsdown when I press the button but my old one does nothing (unless its held for 5 seconds or so, then it just cuts power).

I am looking for one that is for two computers and is under $40

For the Olympus C750
Does anyone have any info on this? I haven't been able to find any at all, and am going to Hawaii for a month so it would be nice to have.
PS: Got a Canon Rebel K2 today
Is this going to be the final layout for the main page? I have trouble sorting through all the different forums in their current groupings, and it takes a while to scroll to the bottom.
I am reinstalling XP tomorrow, and lost my driver disk. I found the drivers, except for the 3Com ethernet port (which I will be using). Where can it be found?
Before you think this should be moved to computer audio, I just have to say I feel it fits better here because it is not related to sound
anyhow....
My computer case has a door that is nearly flush with the door. Would it be practical to set the A2 drive back 1/2" (in the 5.25 drive bay)...
Earlier today, when I booted my computer, I tried to start IE, and it crashed immediately. I tried reinstalling it, but I wasn't able to. After a couple restarts when messing with IE, I noticed I wasn't able to use Foobar (or WMP for that matter) with music anymore. Even later, when I reopened...

I moved my raid0 setup (koutech pir133) without detaching the IDE cables to my old computer. However, when I tried installing the XP drivers (from a floppy that I made), I get this error:
At boot the drives appear to bet set up correctly, but windows doesn't see them.
edit: Well I...
I installed my old 30gb into my new computer and copied a bunch of new files to it as a back up. Is there anything wrong with disconnecting the power and IDE cable from it and leaving it there until I need it again?
Do you guys think it would be more cost efficient to work with my existing computer, build a new one, or buy a pre-built (my friend's Dell is very quiet)?
And what to do?
