    Two bad memory sticks?

    Thanks guys. I got another stick of memory that's a different brand and it's made it through one pass of memtest so far. I'll let it run for a couple more passes but at this point it looks like both sticks were bad. Interesting.

    Two bad memory sticks?

    I recently bought an Asus Z77-V LK MB and 8 GB Patriot Gamer 2 Series DDR3 1600 RAM and got everything put together. It seems like I'm having problems with both memory sticks. I have tested them separately in different slots on the MB and both throw errors in Memtest86+. Isn't it really rare to...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    You would get charged by the delivery courier, but the US has a free trade agreement with South Korea so there's no import tax.

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    If anyone is wondering about experiences with different sellers, I ordered a Shimian Lite from Redcap on Friday morning, had it Monday morning. He included a power brick that was 110-240V, but I had to get the generic cord to plug into the US style outlet. It's got no dead pixels and no...

    Selling laptop - Windows 7 worth more than XP?

    Not sure where exactly to post this, but what have been your experiences with selling stuff on Craigslist? I could put a legal version of Windows 7 and Office 2010 on a laptop I'm selling, but if it won't give me much of a price increase, I'll just keep them myself for use on a different...

    Network names in Vista/7

    Does anybody know how to clear out your old stored network settings in Vista and 7? For example for my university's network, I would have like "University Network 18" then when I would disconnect I would have "University Network 19" the next time I connected. For whatever reason it doesn't...

    Hard Lockup during or shortly after boot

    I've been having problems with my computer. I've got an abit ip-35 pro mobo with a Q6600, 4GB of RAM, Vista 64 bit, and a Sapphire HD3650 512MB graphics card. The problem I'm having is that I'll get freezes while the progress bar is moving while Vista boots up, or shortly after while at the...

    2408WFP or Soyo Topaz

    I just bought a 2408wfp off of Ebay for $357 after MS cashback. It arrived today and looks good as far as no back light bleed or dead pixels, but I can tell it needs to be calibrated. I just saw a posting that someone near me is selling a Soyo Topaz that he claims has a 6ms response time and...

    Random lockups

    Well, I've been having some problems lately with my computer locking up on me while I'm in Windows. It will do it after startup if I don't do anything for a few minutes, or randomly at other times. I then have to do a hard reboot and after that Windows will freeze at the loading screen before...

    E8400 on Asus P5K pro - keeps changing multiplier on the fly in windows?

    I think you have to disable both EIST and C1E. I don't have your mobo though. I think people generally recommend disabling speedstep for overclocking because the voltage is lowered, and that can cause instability in a system that would otherwise be stable at full load.
