    Boot drive led... stumped

    thanks for the ideas (to all as well) I did disconnect drives but only at the drives themselves - think I need to actually disconnect at the mobo? Did disconnect video card, and plugged HDMI into onboard video - any chance its not getting activated somehow? On clearing the CMOS (switching...

    Boot drive led... stumped

    Mobo boot drive led stays lit and won't boot to bios at all. (system in sig) Daughter tried to turn it on and just told me it never came on - she said it had some loading screen and then went off. Not much detail I could get from her - only 9.

    7 Years Ago Today Intel Launched the Core i7-2600K

    Thanks - should have mentioned I have opened it up and made sure cpu fan is running as well as blew it all out with compressed air. Wasn’t too dusty. I do that relatively often. Front two case fans are ok, rear fan cycles, probably bad bearing. Top fan is worse. Often sticks. Not the best...

    Gears of War 4 Nvidia Bundle (GTX 1070/1080 and Laptops)

    I got all excited until I realized these will just be jacked up in price to be irrelevant. Or am I being a negative Nancy and you just have to buy a card from the right retailer. Not a marked bundle.

    Uber Drivers Ordered To Give Up Earnings

    I started using Uber in NYC after finding a gas station with at least 100 taxis during shift change. Not a single damn one would take us. And this wasn't like a 15 minute switch. They all told us not to bother trying to get one nearby for another hour or so. That was the last time I used a...
