    Utility to create bootable USB flash drive

    I didn't know you were trying to update your BIOS. An .inf won't do that for you. Besides, I lead you down the wrong track. When you said "bootable" I was thinking "autorun" in my head. Sorry about that. I work with a bunch of idiots who are constantly saying the wrong things for stuff or...

    Utility to create bootable USB flash drive

    Why don't you just write your own .inf file? All you need is a really short one to get the job done. I do this all the time at work if I have a bunch of computers I need to manually configure to save time. The good thing with these is you can also make a bootable CD from them too. Try...

    DVD to HDD for htpc

    There is also a PgcEdit add on that works with DVD Decrypter. It gives decrypter that extra push to break the crap sony and the likes fills our disks up with. A stupid simple GUI is a nice addition as well.

    x1900xtx vs 7800gt sli

    I used to check Tom's site every day a couple years ago. They've gone through a total overhaul a little while back, and they never seemed the same to me after that. Their new editor is an apple fanatic (not like I give a shit what computer platform he likes, I just don't want to read his...

    A8R32-MVP Overclocking Issues

    Great thread!! As a fellow A8R32-MVP owner, the info in this thread has been invaluable to me to get a good OC started. Except for the really long post screen (longest I've ever seen), this board is blazing fast. I'm so glad I trashed my POS Abit AV8 for this beauty, its got me all excited...

    my VF900-cu review...

    Ok, here's those temps I promissed from yesterday: CS:S -- 54C COD2 -- mid to upper 60's, never reached 70 Fear -- mostly hung around 71C, hit 72C once HL: Lost Coast -- Mostly 70C, hit 75C once *Note* This is with my x1900xt overclocked to 680/780 and with the room temp...

    my VF900-cu review...

    Sorry guys but when I bought my x1900xt, I bought the vf900-CU at the same time. I upgraded from an X850XT PE and its fan was starting to get on my nerves. So when I got my card I installed the cooler on it right away. I knew later on that I wished I would have done some type of comparison on...

    mouse pointer is getting "sticky" .. gpu going out?

    Yeah, that would sure be a first if your "sticky" mouse was a symptom of a dying gpu. Did you at least try cleaning the damn thing?

    my VF900-cu review...

    I have. Idle's around 35 C; load high 50's to low 60's. That was with overclocking and I forgot what my specs were at the time as its running stock speed right now. Artic silver still needs a few days to fully cure also. By the way, this runs absolutely silent and is very well constructed...

    VF900 at Newegg!

    I'm seriously considering biting on this. I'm really on the fence to ordering the X1900 XT within the next day or so. I have the X850XT PE (agp) now and I'm getting a little tired of the leaf blower. If I do decide to bite the bullet, I'll definitely have this thing installed before I even...

    I second that. There can be pretty good deals on eBay. Definitely worth a look at.

    Recommend: AGP card for sister

    I just build my girlfriend a budget rig a couple weeks ago and she mainly plays the Sims 2 on it. All she has right now is a 128mb PCI card left over from an upgrade out of her old Dell, and she's running it at the specs your looking for. If your sister will really only use it for the sims and...

    How bestbuy screwed up my cpu

    Maybe I'm just lazy, but I tend to take the path of least resistance. Wouldn't it just be easier to replace the damaged parts yourself and learn from your experience instead of spending a ridiculous amount of time getting no where? Think of all that time you could be spending doing...
