    Windows 8.1 Triple Monitor Lock Screen Slideshow

    I'll make this short and sweet. I'm running Windows 8.1 with three monitors. When I'm away from my computer and it's locked, it starts the slideshow as normal. However, it's only displaying the slideshow on two of the three monitors. The third monitor is just blank. The monitor settings look...

    Someone help me find a monitor

    I simply can't find what I'm looking for. I need some help as my Google-Fu has failed me. No gaming on this monitor, just a bunch of software development, so crystal clear text is important followed by color clarity. Must have: Under $200 (hard limit) 23 " (or higher) Glossy Nice to...

    My new Home Theater Setup

    How much room is between the kinect and the first set of chairs? Also, that looks really clean and a great use of the space. How big is the room total?

    Uncompressed Blu-ray help

    Is there a reason for mt2s? Does it offer anything that mkv doesn't? Everything else I have is mkv so I'm trying to keep it the same.

    Uncompressed Blu-ray help

    So I started backing up my Blu-rays to my server, but I'm having some video quality issues. I really didn't think that I (or anyone) would notice the compression artifacts, but I see it easily. I noticed it's compressing the main video a little and I don't want that. Are there any ideas on how I...

    How to wire 5 HDDs closely together

    This guy was asking a similar question. How many HDDs can I daisy chain on one modular power supply cable? I read it, but I don't understand the answer. Possibly because I'm up way too late for the day I had. Help!

    How to wire 5 HDDs closely together

    Ok, I got some pieces from MDPC-X. Mainly the SATA connectors. So can I take an existing power cable that came with my Corsair 750X and add the connectors to power all 5 HDDs with one power cable? I have no idea how to calculate that the power cable can take the power load of five drives on at...

    How to wire 5 HDDs closely together

    Are these reliable? Is this company any good? If so, I'd just buy this and call it a day?

    How to wire 5 HDDs closely together

    How would I remove the connectors and relocate them? I assume you'd have to stip the wires in just one spot, which i have no idea how you'd do that. @archmage: those are pretty interesting. I might try that if I can't find a diy solution

    How to wire 5 HDDs closely together

    I have a Silverstone FT02. The FT02 has five vertical HDD bays right next to each other in the bottom left corner of the case. Originally I had three HDDs and spread them out between slots 1, 3, and 5. The door panel barely closed after they were cabled and when I opened it up two months later...

    Cable Dress Kit

    I like a clean looking case and saw a build in a magazine where all of the cables were the same color/style. I read about this in Maximum PC a few issues back. Seems like it is some cable cover you slide over cables to help group them or at least color the wires the same. Does anyone know of a...

    Z68 - Which motherboard includes actual iGPU output?

    So I'm going to pull the trigger on my new build now that the Z68 finally came out. Unfortunately, I can't decipher the alphanumeric disaster of motherboard names. Seriously, Gigabyte... I'm on newegg's site and a whole bunch say "none" for integrated video chipset. Does that mean they don't...
