    Question for you Nvidia video card experts out there!

    System doesn't boot with new video card

    The latest "official" drivers from Nvidia don't recognize the new 7300GS and will not install. I downloaded the latest beta driver off the Nvidia site which does support the 7300GS, and it works great, but doesn't solve the booting problem.

    I'm now useind drivers off the Nvidia website, however their latest official driver doesn't support the 7300GS yet, and will not install, so I had to use the latest beta driver off of Nvidia's site. It works great, but same boot problem.

    System doesn't boot with new video card

    I built a HTPC using a motherboard with an onboard 6150 Nvidia video chip. The system was 110% stable.

    Cat5 or Wireless faster?

    I must humbly disagree...... while wireless technology is getting better and faster all the time, it still doesn't match the speed of a hard wired setup yet.

    Will increasing bandwidth help Vonage VoIP (sometimes faint, echoes, fuzzy)

    I'll give you a "definitive" yes! Speed definitely counts with VOIP.

    Best router for speed and reliability

    OK my pc has a gigabyte nic adapter. I want to buy the fastest router I can get, and the D-Link Gamers Router would seem to be the only one set up for gigabit. Does anyone have experience with this router, or any suggestions?

    nForce 2 integrated NIC drops signal w/ heavy load, PCI recommendations?

    I don't know if you are useing any cable splitters, but I had the same types of problems and they cleared up after I replaced my cheap generic Radio Shack" splitters. Cost more, but definitely was worth investing in the best quality splitters available.
