    support cd for ASUS A7N8X Deluxe motherboard

    Check here, you might be able to find what you're looking for. I can look around and see if I can find my old disk if that doesn't work out. Do you have an OS installed or are you needing the files for the instal phase?

    Conductive Packing material

    I was wondering if the packaging material is conductive or not. I bought a motherboard from NewEgg, and it shipped with the motherboard AND the foam pad INSIDE the static bag. I was wondering if I should RMA this before I open it just in case, or if it's nothing to worry about. I have to do an...

    Video capture software for CS

    Thanks a lot, that's just what I needed. I was intending to make an avi out of it, so you didn't waste your time ;) What search string or key words should I use? I searched google with things like "cs movie" and "cs video capture" and such, but didn't find anything (at least from what I saw)...

    best racing game

    Agreed. I turned the "shiny feature" off when I first played it... looked *much* better IMO. 'nother vote for NFS:HP2 and a vote for CMR 2, I wasn't impressed with CMR 3, the graphics were great, but I had a lot more fun playing 2... What's CMR 4 like? It's on console only right? And as a 3rd...

    Video capture software for CS

    What's good (or any) program that I can use to capture video from a CS match? At our last lan we had some really funny CS moments and I thought it'd be cool to be able to save them, but i don't know how. Thanks!

    Choosing some 120mm case fans

    Yeah, I'll have to drill some new holes to get it to fit, but the case is wide enough for it. Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look into that Evercool fan. :)

    Choosing some 120mm case fans

    I'm looking into getting some 120mm fans to replace my current 80s. I'm basically trying to quite my case down without raising the temps. I read on another forum that the specs posted by some companies aren't very accurate due to different testing methods/setups etc. So how should I choose my...

    Check your device managers......

    Yeah, I read about something like this in one of my gaming mags that came last month. Is there a list somewhere of all the games that install something like this? So I know what games to avoid when I go shopping :)

    Quick question about a display problem

    The monitor might be dying. Our monitor developed a pink tint before it stopped working. Or the plug might be borken. Try pluging the monitor in and wiggling the cord, see if the green goes away or if it changes a different color. If it is the cord, then it'll probably be cheaper to just buy...

    Off brand of a CRT

    I'm thinking of getting a 21in CTX from a friend. Anyone heard of this brand before? What kind of quality can I expect? Spec page I'm guessing at the model number, so this is just to give people an idea. Thanks. Erich

    Fan related questions

    1) What direction should the CPU fan be blowing? Onto the heatsink/cpu, or away from (drawing from) the heatsink/cpu? 2) How loud is ~45dBA? Does fan noise stack? For example, if I had four fans all running at about 45dBA, would it the output be about 45dBA still? 3) Would a fan on the...
