Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
How do those Samsung LED TV's compare to OLED's? I know they're twice as much $$$ as LCD's but they look a heck of a lot better and are only 1/2" thick.

Don't you all remember that video of the asian business man suddenly bursting into flames at a business conference? The lithium battery in his laptop had exploded while on his lap, setting him on fire. This was the famous incident some claims was responsible for Sony making that huge battery...
I curse you back to the days of 150KB Telocity DSL with no alternatives nationwide for nearly a year!!!
if I was really mean, I'd curse you back to a VICMODEM
glossy gives you richer colors, better for movies and games but it reflects glare making it hard on your eyes for reading text. Matte is best for text.
To improve text quality on an LCD, I recommend turning on ClearType, Windows still leaves it off by default.
In WinXP, go to Control Panel ->...
HT was good on a single core, I remember on single core's that the whole computer would freeze if you were trying to format a floppy disk but HT took care of that and other annoying freezes. Seems pointless on a quad-core to me!
XP 64 has the worst driver support. I would say, download the "leaked" Windows 7 RC1 from your fave torrent site and know that you will eventually have to wipe your windows partition and buy a copy of Windows 7 when the beta keys time out (you can still get beta keys from windows.com)
