    Motherboard repair question

    I am continually amazed at what you can find on Newegg, don't get me wrong. But Newegg isn't selling any 939 motherboards at the moment. I don't hold that against them, there have been 1 or 2 advances in processors, RAM and motherboards since I built this computer in 2005. I tested all the...

    Motherboard repair question

    Nope, no buldging capacitors. Look like I'm selling my stuff. Anyone want it?

    Motherboard repair question

    I hadn't considered selling my parts to raise funds, seems like a stupid oversight now though. I didn't notice any obviously scorched parts when I inspected either board. I wasn't looking for buldging capacitors though. I'll give that a look when I get home.

    Motherboard repair question

    I know the answer to this question, but I thought I'd ask just so I can say I exausted all possibilities. I have an old Asus motherboard, an A8V-E Deluxe. It stopped posting completely at random a few weeks ago. I replaced it with another 939 board I borrowed, just to make sure it was the...

    Fan controller

    I'm sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find it. I'm building a new watercooling system, and looking for a fan controller, but I'm having trouble finding one that does what I want and is reliable. Requirements: 1: At least 1 temperature probe 2: Ability to power at least...

    X3 terran Conflict

    I just got X3: Terran Conflict and I know this is a dumb question, but I'm having a hell of a time finding stations. To be specific, the quantum tub fab in Argon prime. Is there a table of coordinates for all stations or a mod to show all stations on the map? Also, how do most people use the...

    Game With Your Spouse Or S/O?

    My wife and I game together. She has very specific kinds of games she likes, as such, I can only get her to play Age of Empires and AoE2. I'm still trying to learn her 'rules' for a good game to get her to branch out. She didn't even like Dawn of War. If anyone can suggest a good RTS based...

    The Risk of Waiting for Windows 7

    I hesitate to feed the trolls, but what the hell. Yes, I'm a complete moron. I installed it and ran for about an hour to make my lifelong decision..... Of course I gave it some time. I gave it about a month. During this time I used the computer heavily. Which was a lot of fun since it...

    The Risk of Waiting for Windows 7

    Until I see a reason to double my system RAM and still decrease my performance, yes, I'll wait for Windows 7. PS: I already have a copy of Vista Ultimate, got it for free, didn't like it, went back tro XP. IF I have to format my HD again before Windows 7 I MAY try Vista again, but don't...

    Official: Diablo 3 is Coming!

    You know, I take this forum for granted. I just checked out the link to the diablo 3 fan forum a few posts up. I made it 5 posts in and couldn't stand it anymore, those guys ARE idiots. The very premise of the thread is stupid as well. Diablo 3 will not require a system upgrade, unless you...

    Apple's Latest DRM Will Restrict Your Wardrobe

    Words can't describe. I just can't figure out where companies get the idea that they can police how there products are used. I'm sure someone will give a counter example, but it seems to be only in the tech industry. Clothing companies don't try to restrict what you can wear, ie t-shirts...
