    No Video Output! Please Help

    I just built my first rig and I'm stuck. Specs are in my sig. I installed XP 32bit and after booting once or twice there would be no video output. The light on the back of my 280 is green. Resetting the CMOS would usually fix the problem. Then I did a fresh install of Vista 64bit. I ran Intel...

    Safe for overclock?

    I just built my first rig. Specs are in my sig. I ran Intel Burn Test for 100 passes last night at maximum and both CoreTemp and RealTemp say that my cores are maxing out at 57C. When running IBT at maximum RealTemp said that only 50% of my processor was being used but I am running 64-bit Vista...

    Vista 64-bit Questions

    Thanks. I'll probably go the OEM route knowing that Microsoft would be open to letting me reuse the key if my MB dies. Is it true that as long as just my motherboard stays the same, that I can reinstall it or add components as I feel necessary?

    Vista 64-bit Questions

    Does anybody know the answer to #1 as this option is about the same cost as buying a retail upgrade package. Newegg has OEM Vista x64 Home Premium at around $100 and a retail upgrade to Vista Home Premium is about $110-120. I would prefer the OEM route but I don't want to be stuck with a...

    Vista 64-bit Questions

    Okay this is getting off-track. I checked Microsoft's website and it says that if you have Home Basic 32-bit (which I do) installed that you need to do a clean install for Vista 64-bit, so I'm guessing the upgrade option is out, right? Can Kil4Thril and Devil22 explain a little more what you're...

    Vista 64-bit Questions

    I take it if you can install the upgrade from a fresh install of Vista off the same install disc running in trial mode you still need to input the original XP key somewhere?

    Vista 64-bit Questions

    Okay, I have a few questions so bear with me. I built a new i7 desktop a couple days ago and realized that my copy of XP 32-bit is choking the hell out of it. I would like to make the switch to 64-bit Vista. I have a few questions that are holding me back though. I'm not sure whether to upgrade...

    Reliable DVD Burner

    I'm not that concerned about firmware updates but it bothers me that a company never releases them. Noise is a moderate concern. I don't mind a little noise but the disc spinning should not be louder than the rest of the computer.

I'm building an new pc and I need some recommendations for a good, reliable DVD Burner. I'm looking for a SATA drive with preferably a DVD+/-R...
