    Is my graphics card dead?

    Same thing with one monitor, both DVI and HDMI. Power supply is about 3.5 years old, in good material condition. The only change I've made to the computer in recent months is getting another monitor and adding an SSD. It's 600w...so I doubt that I'm overloading it. Everything went downhill...

    Is my graphics card dead?

    Borrowed multimeter, 12V readings across the board on the 6-pin connectors going into the card. Looks like I'll be buying a new card.

    Is my graphics card dead?

    Currently living overseas where best buy isn't an option...might have access to a voltmeter at work I could borrow for a day to figure out if the power supply is bad or not. I've had at least 2 bad PSUs in my lifetime, and in both cases they made me think it was the mobo going bad, not the...

    Is my graphics card dead?

    The situation: When computer boots, you see the windows logo but never get to the login screen. If left alone, the computer just sits there hanging with a black screen, with the fans getting louder and louder. I've confirmed that the GPU fans are still going. What I've got: I have 2x 1080p...

    That game that's so popular with everyone, but you just can't...

    Oblivion: I played FO3, Skyrim, and FONV in that order, loved the first two and liked FONV. So I got Oblivion for 360, and just found the super generic fantasy environment and terrible graphics to be annoying. I got through the first gate into oblivion and kept getting my ass kicked by little...

    Give me one reason why should I go for an MBP 15 retina

    To add to the "quality" stuff - I'm using a MB from late 2008 (aluminium 13 inch) with 10.10.2 that I got in May 2009. I had to upgrade from 2 to 4 GB of ram, for Yosemite. But it still runs well. Not amazing, but well. I want to replace it, but can't seem to justify doing so at the moment...

    What to do with an old iBook?

    I should have said "get rid of it" - I wasn't planning on actually chucking it in the trash. I do want to use it, I just lack the kind of stuff necessary to do some crazy mods like I've seen in the past ("steampunk electronic photo frame" or "wall mounted somethingorother running linux" -...

    What to do with an old iBook?

    So I was doing some cleaning and came across my old white late 2006 model iBook G4. I'm hesitant to throw it out, and was wondering if there are any good suggestions on what to do with it. I don't have access to any crazy modding tools/skills etc to go nuts on it. And I'm pretty sure that...

    iOS contact sync issue (iPhone -> iCloud)

    Thanks, that worked. In case anyone else reads this in the future, for the "export from contacts" part, select all of your contacts and import them as one vcard. The .abbu files can't be uploaded to icloud for some reason, and obviously a ton of individual vcards would take all day.

    iOS contact sync issue (iPhone -> iCloud)

    When I bought my iPhone 5 two years ago, for whatever reason I set up the contacts to be on the phone. Some of them somehow made their way to iCloud. I'm trying to get said contacts to ALL get on iCloud so that my iPad mini will be able to use them. I can't for the life of me figure out how to...

    WTB: Ikea Galant corner desk frame part

    I bought a bunch of Ikea Galant parts recently, and just need one more. It is the part that attaches to the main frame to support the corner part. It isn't an extension or anything. I thought someone might have one laying around after wall mounting their desk or something. Part number is...

    Mass Effect 3 Ending. **SPOILERS** What was everyone so upset about?

    I wasn't super thrilled or upset with the endings either way, but I will agree that it killed the replayability. I usually replay RPGs as an "opposite" character - I change the gender, faction choice, and their alignment/karma or whatever you want to call it. I don't feel the need to do that...

    Ikea desk gallery

    I'm pretty sure if everyone that owned a jerker and wanted to sell it was aware of the demand, the laws of economics would kick in and they'd cost a hell of a lot more.
