I do the same, I habitually update to the latest, but started to question if there is such a thing; a better driver for certain generations of video cards. Just seemed like other computer hardware goes that way so why not video cards. Wireless adapters I have found in the same boat; certain...

So I have been hanging around the SATA areas on the web. One thing started to jump out at me was that using Intel RST, certain drivers gave different performances. Then certain drivers belong to certain chipsets since they are optimized for that chipset. Example, I get better write...

How are the earlier ones who RMA'd theirs doing today with their replacements?

So it has been a long day coming, but I am in need of a multifunctional printer. An early sorry if this is in the wrong posting. I currently have an HP 4100 mfp and it is ginormous. It has the following Scanner Fax Printer - B/W only e-mail (sends directly from printer. Also kept an...

This is why you need to set up MCM for the bare-minimums. In my set up, MCM does the following; gets 1 backdrop (jpeg) Renames the movie or TV show creates a small system file (around 9kb) gets 1 folder picture (jpeg) creates the xml files for the movie or tv show (around 13kb) The backdrop...

Yes, XBMC will scrape and put all those posters, artwork, thumbs, etc. on the local. If you have more HTPC's with XBMC then you need to repeat the process to each of them. There is a way to "sync" them all, but it is pain. Plex does it for you, much better for anybody to use. If you get...

Thanks everyone. Just looking around, the pricing varies greatly from one to the other compared to the specs.

First off let me apologize if I am in the wrong forum section, but did not see a heading for this. I am interested in what everyone is using for protecting their computer equipment. Or is there some website that actually tests surge protectors for their use? So far I have been researching and...

Thanks sbudbud. I want to replace the stock Antec fans, I have a filter in the front and it seems like the airflow has gone down. So looking for some better, quieter fans and these popped up.

I was ready to purchase some Cougar V12HPB for intake and exhaust fans at Newegg, but then I saw that the same company has the Cougar CF-D12HB-B which have blue LED's. Currently my set up has blue LED's, but I was ready to ditch them for these Cougar black ones. Does anyone have the...

Holy Moly. I'll tell them to stay away from it. Thank you

I think this is where this should be asked I have a client who talked to me about some thermal compound I have never heard of. Anyone else heard of of it? Okay to use for CPU and heat-sink? Or stay away and why? Maker - ITW Chemtronics Model - CW7100

Thanks for the overview Capt and great points. The version 12.6.0.1033 was offered at Intel. I installed it and then had massive issues. After re-imaging I went back down a version. That evening on that same day that particular version was now not available at Intel. I went to the forums at...

Ahh, got it. I'll try it out then, but after imaging my system. Thanks

That is what I don't understand, how can they have more updated drivers than Intel? Don't get me wrong, I am just trying to understand that. I agree that the Intel site while cumbersome, at the end of the day it is Intel. But this Station Driver seems to have more. Who is creating these...
