    list your Windows 7 (retail) problems

    No issues here except ASUS has not released any Win 7 drivers for the G50, and a few of them tweak out because the drivers/software only work with Vista or Higher.... So, what crap that wouldn't install, I grabbed those from the G51 and it works great.

    TV-Tuner for Laptop

    So no one can throw me a bone here? All of the USB and express card ones that I can find seem equally shitty.

    TV-Tuner for Laptop

    Can someone recommend me a good TV tuner for a laptop? I am looking to ditch my ancient CRT TV and dual purpose my laptop, as I am stuck in a college dorm and space is at a premium. Output is going to a 24in Samsung LCD @ 1920x1200 with a HDMI -> DVI-D adapter. The laptop itself is a ASUS...

    Love your socket 754?

    I would like to announce that my s754 is still chugging away just fine as my backup server. Not the same stuff as in my sig, as I went through 2 upgrade cycles from then to now, but it is running 8 SCSI 10k Cheetah drives and 4 IDE drives, 1gb ram, and a 6800GT(AGP) I found laying around. Sadly...

    Recommend me a watercooling case ( 360mm rad )

    Is the rad or the air coming out of the rad getting warm? It almost sounds like your pump isn't flowing enough, there is a clog somewhere(leading back to the first one) or your CPU block isn't seated very good.

    SLI on a 790FX hack, is it worth it?

    The only time modding something to get SLI on the cheap in a practical fashion was the nForce 4 Ultra to SLI mod. That was a physical hardware mod, when you start the limbo with drivers, its for sure going to be cut off eventually.

    Windows 7 gone wrong

    Sorry, It's been awhile. My last login was in 2007 sometime. Anyways, I somehow got it working and killed off Windows 7. I killed the Bootmgr with vistabootpro and then copied the ntldr, the whatever.com one and boot.ini into the vista partition, and it loaded just fine.

    Windows 7 gone wrong

    Ok, So I have a dual boot XP/7 setup going. They both worked wonderfully together until I managed to screw it up. This has me completely stumped So I needed to reclaim my 2tb raid 5 array from 7 and give it all back to XP. I used acronis disk manager to move the 7 partition to another...

    Flushing the loop

    It's been flushed with just straight up distilled, but the cooling system is going on over a year without a major clean job.

    Flushing the loop

    Been doing that for years when I install new blocks and tubing for leak testing. I'm thinking that running the computer during the flush might help break down stuff since the vinegar wash will be nice and warm ( /kill the rad fans). zacrobmer: While the oxyclean is tempting, ill just stick...

    Flushing the loop

    Would it hurt anything to run some distilled and vinegar through the loop while the computers running and then a few good distilled flushes. I don't exactly have tons of time to rip everything apart and give it a good cleaning. Only thing I'm wondering about is the 655 pump. I think my blocks...

    Post your "Ghetto Mod" pics

    To add to my ghetto laptop and waterblock way back in this thread Ghetto 8800 style GFX cooler for my Geforce 4 MX440 PCI. Fan is the extra that Asus sends with their A8N32 for the wierdass chipset cooler, a heatsink from a Pentium 1 with MMX, duct tape well ducting system, coat hanger...
