    Good OpenCL tutorial?

    Can you guys recommend a good OpenCL tutorial for coding on a Radeon GPU? I know AMD has some stuff on their site, but wanted to see if any of you guys know of a good beginner's guide. Just kind of curious of how OpenCL works and want to mess around with it. Thanks.

    Protect your laptop info in case it is stolen?

    I currently have a password lock when the computer wakes from screen saver. My biggest concern was for my external drives or someone just popping out my laptop hard drive and hooking it up externally to extract it's information. Does TrueCrypt impact IO performance at all?

    Blu-Ray drive reads slow

    Yea I kind of figured. Well going to go through the process of RMAing and hopefully that fixes the problem. I always thought Samsung made quality products, but I seem to have to send everything i get from them in for warranty. 2 hard drives and now a ODD.

    Blu-Ray drive reads slow

    Disc is not scratched. I have tried like 4 different discs. Have had this problem since I installed the drive. So I am wondering if my drive is bad, or if Blu Ray is just a PITA for everyone. DVDs play fine.

    Blu-Ray drive reads slow

    Hey guys, I have a Samsung SH-B123L blu ray drive. When I put in a blu ray disc, it takes about 5 minutes or so for the disc to get recognized by Windows. The blu-ray drive is trying to read the disc this entire time. I have the latest firmware. Is this normal?

    How do you Setup your family members computer to protect from malware?

    The thing about MSE full scan is if the person has a laptop it won't finish or it will take a long time too since the person typically closes the laptop when they are done. Or do you guys just set up there laptops to not sleep? I am pretty sure MSE only starts the scan if the computer is on...
