    Linksys WUSB54G v4 v/s Windows 7 fix

    Can someone please explain how to do this properly. I've spent hours after a recent install of windows 7 and still can't seem to get my wusb54g working. When I try to manually direct the device to the rt2500 files nothing happens or it says they could not be found. Any suggestions?

    Hurray for Step-Up! I'm in line.

    I know this is definitely a stupid question which can be answered by my reading the step up policy on the EVGA website but figured I would just ask it here for further clarification. The price you pay for your step up is the difference between your original purchase price and the price of the...

    New Corsair TX750 psu

    No fans spin, and no beeps occur, so I think it must be the power supply. I am going to try and boot another computer using the psu and see if this solves any open questions.

    New Corsair TX750 psu

    I popped out my battery on the motherboard while the power switch on my psu was off. I had the battery out for about one minute and then reseated it. I'm still having no luck with this problem. The POST error light is on and still displaying 0.1. but the 3vsb light that comes on when there is...

    New Corsair TX750 psu

    I don't really know how to do the paperclip test, something about shorting two pins on my main power cord? I haven't solved this issue yet and the green 3vsb light is still not lighting up but the error codes on the POST screen on my mobo do light up when the psu is hooked up. I didn't have...

    New Corsair TX750 psu

    I have tried resetting the cmos, but have not tried pulling the battery out on the motherboard. Does anyone recommend this as an option?

    New Corsair TX750 psu

    I recently just put together my new system, and booted it up for the first time yesterday. Installed Vista Home Premium 64bit. Today I tried to boot it up again and nothing happens. I have an Abit IP35 Pro Mobo and the 3vsb light that lights up red when a power source is connected doesn't come...

    Picking a new monitor

    A higher viewing angle means you can be farther to the right or left of the monitor and still see the image. Its like watching an LCD television where if your sitting to the far right your viewing pleasure is diminished more than if you were sitting in front of the TV. So basically a higher...

    I just picked up 2 x 2 GB of GSkill ddr2-800 and it runs perfectly and oc's well. Very stable. I believe it was $84.99 with free shipping on Newegg when I picked it up

    Don't get mad just because you can't spawn kill with grenades as well as I can ;) Completely kidding as well as wondering why this thread was started in the first place?

    Picking a new monitor

    Can you post a link of the monitor your are looking at? The pixel pitch is the a measurement of the distance in between pixels in your display. Generally, the lower the pixel pitch is the higher the resolution. At 1680 x 1050 you should be fine with your 8800gt 512mb depending on what...

    Building New Rig / Need Advice & Suggestions

    Thanks for the clarification on the WD 640, its good to know because I probably would have gone with the 500gb drive instead to save some money. Plus at $97, its a pretty good deal. I'll tell you how the LG Blu-Ray optical is when I get everything up and running. Maybe even post some pics.

    Building New Rig / Need Advice & Suggestions

    Oh wow, didn't know that the 640 performed so much better. Thanks a lot for the link! Fully configured my system is going to look like this. I decided to go with the 650w Corsair rather than the 750w Corsair to save about $30. Thanks again for all who helped. CPU: Intel Q6600 MOBO: ABIT...

    Building New Rig / Need Advice & Suggestions

    I just have one quick question, why is the WD Caviar 640AAKS Drive as fast as a raptor. I realize it is more expensive than the WD CAVIAR AAKS 500 and 750 GB sizes, but is the 500GB drive just as fast as this 640GB?

    Building New Rig / Need Advice & Suggestions

    Thanks for all the suggestions, I think I'll probably step it down to DDR2 800 for the ram to save some money as well as scrapping the sound card for now. I'll pick up an 8800gts 512 from EVGA because I want to use their step up program sometime in the next few months to upgrade to an...
