    ASUS PA246Q monitor audio out too low

    Did you ever find a solution for this? I have the same problem and am pairing it with an X-Fi

    16:10 vs 16:9 - what you prefer?

    If you do anything besides watch movies and play games, then 16:10 is largely preferable.

    Best 24" for 1920x1200? (IPS or PVA/MVA) Upgrade Dell 2405 FPW?

    There's also the Asus PA246Q, which has DVI + HDMI and the wide gamut like the U2410. I believe they're the same panel, but the PA246Q is $100 cheaper and supposedly a minor improvement on the U2410.

    Upgrading from NEC 20WMGX2?

    This is also true (actually seems to be a lot of variability), but if you're also upscaling the picture using the monitor and/or working at a non-native resolution its going to look even worse.

    Upgrading from NEC 20WMGX2?

    I'm in the same boat - I imagine it looks bad because because AFAIK XBox360/PS3 Games run at 720 and 1080, which are unfortunately respectively smaller and larger than the native resolution of the 20WMGX2.

    [H]ot Deal - 2x1GB Buffalo FireStix $109.99!

    Unless you are using programs that use that much RAM (read: not most games), you won't see that much of an advantage. If you use 32-bit Windows (XP or Vista - doesn't matter, it's still 32-bit) you will not be able to use all the RAM anyway. 32-bit OS's have the ability to use 4GB of memory...

    Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000) $85 AR, AC

    That's happened to me on several orders - on my last order I didn't get a tracking number via email until AFTER my package arrived. Usually though the shipment information page on newegg's site has a tracking number within a day of ordering or less.

    Anyone still play their Saturn?

    I still bust mine out to play mostly shmups. Thunderforce V, Galactic Attack, the Parodius Series, Battle Garrega, Soukyugurentai etc, plus all the obscure fighters I can shake a stick at. Truly a 2D-lover's paradise. I still have a new boxed Saturn just for eternal backup purposes (Segata...

    How's XP with Core2Duo and 8800?

    No. Not yet at least. There is nothing to my knowledge that only maxes out your equipment in Vista and not XP. The only exception being DirectX 10 games. And there aren't that many of them yet.

    No Keyboard Support in Windows

    I can't believe Logitech pissed my cheerios so bad. I used UBCD4WIN (not to be confused with the Ultimate Boot CD) and Password Renew to create a new dummy admin account with no pwd and uninstalled the Logitech drivers and lo and behold the PS/2 keyboard worked...I reinstalled the Logitech...

    No Keyboard Support in Windows

    zacdl - Ah, I didn't think of that - admittedly I guess I figure people would have better things to start flamewars over ;) And no, I didn't forget the passwords - I can't type them in, the keyboard doesn't work on the login screen.

    No Keyboard Support in Windows

    Thank you for your replies - Out of habit I have password protected all accounts, so I cannot login into Windows to remove the drivers. I'm in the midst of creating a BartPE disk and seeing what I can change from there. @zacdl - What title would you suggest? I can't think of a more specific...

    No Keyboard Support in Windows

    Windows XP Pro 32-bit So I installed another 2GB of RAM, bringing the total to 4GB. System posted fine, but once I get into windows the keyboard stops functioning (although the mouse works). I tried this with my regular Logitech wireless keyboard, as well as a legacy PS/2 keyboard with a wired...
