    suspicious behavior - hard drive failure?

    Thanks for all of the replies here. I wound up finally getting through a Check Disk routine on startup, and it did report bad sectors. My drive was still under warranty, and WD made the RMA process very easy on me. They immediately sent out a new drive, and I got busy trying to recover as much...

    suspicious behavior - hard drive failure?

    I have been struggling with Steam lately. It won't connect, it freezes (bootstrapper does not respond), it slows my computer to a crawl. Scouring the web for solutions, for which there is much voodoo, the one I'm left with is a hard drive failing. Steam is installed on my WD Black 1TB HDD. I...

    Lost my "Do Not Scale" option in 197.45

    I'm using DVI as well. The only thing that has changed is the driver version. Same hardware I've had for the past two years and always had the scaling options, but now they're gone.

    Lost my "Do Not Scale" option in 197.45

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Is there any sense or information suggesting whether the new stock will have a polarizer or whether there will be any improvements/changes? Obviously there is an issue with consistency. Maybe all new ones will lack the polarizer as DS claims they lack them anyway. But perhaps there are some...

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    How do the black levels on the 263N to TN panels? Are they definitely darker and clearer? Or better than some? Most? And I guess I won't assume the next batch will have the polarizer, so I mean without the polarizer. :) thanks!

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Even without the polarizer, is it safe to say that blacks on the 263 will be better than on any TN display? I enjoy the darker games and prefer to keep my ambient lighting on the low side. Also, any tried mounting it on an Ergotron Widescreen LCD lift stand? Wondering how well that might...
