    Data recovery... Please help me.

    I've had this happen before with windows partitions. I assume the drive was originally formatted with NTFS? As long as your drive is physically good, then Getbackdata for NTFS will find your files, there is even a free trial. I've tried several data recovery programs and this is the best bang...

    Keyboard Recommendation?

    Keyboard Recommendation?

    Hi all, I'm looking at this board on Newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823224001 I really like the look of this board, but in the reviews some people complain that you can't press more than one key at a time. Is this an issue? Anyone tried this board? Any...
