Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Alright, here's one for you guys...
Specs...
Asus P5Q standard, QX6850, 2x2GB Patriot Viper DDR2-1066, 9800 GTX+, 320x2 RAID 0
Alright, so I can install Vista 64, but when I get to the second reboot when you would normally come to the screen with the time/date select, user name select...
Hi everyone, sorry to post this here, but I can't reply in the official thread on the Hot Deals forum because I don't have 50 posts yet (why is this? It's a really dumb rule).
Anyway, for those of you who are participating in the Intel RetailEdge program and ordered the processor, I was just...
Alright, so I threw my 9800 gtx in to test it (see other recent thread by me), and I'm getting a wierd resolution issue. The desktop is stretched over the sides of the monitor when it's set at native resolution (1920x1200). When I go to a 4:3 resolution like 1600x1200, I see the whole desktop...
People have brought up some good points... and yes, it is a BFG card. Newegg have been great in the past, so I'm going to give them the benifit of the doubt by ripping apart my current rig and testing the card throughly. First hint of a problem and it's going back, though.

I'll definatley be calling them tomorrow. Even if pxc is right and it is infact a new card, it wasn't good of NewEgg to ship me a card in a box of that state... and I know it left their hands like this, because the outer box and the rest of the boxes in the box were fine.
I would ask them for...
Alright,
Just got a 9800 GTX+ from Newegg along with a bunch of other parts for a build. Turns out it's an open box item, sold to me as new. I know this because:
1. Box heavily dented and worn, despite the shipping box and all the other component boxes being prestine.
2. Cardstock...
No fair! I am a movie star for some reason, but a friend of mine is a rock star and he started retail edge at the same time as me and had the same amount of old points. I'm hoping it opens up to moviestars maybe like a month later than rockstars, that way I can do it in July.
Yeah couldn't imagine paying 1000 bucks for that.... actually hardly can imagine paying $250 for it since I have a Q6700 now but my bro needs a new computer so I figured i'd sell him this one and build again rather than having to canabalize this one AND build his new one for him.
Haha.... the thing is I won't be spending that much on the processor... hehehe... Intel retail edge program... I'm getting it for about $250 in a few months :-). I was figuring you could since there both 1333 FSB chipsets, just checking....

Hi all,
I checked intel's official site and it says that you need one of those X-something-something chipsets too run the extreme edition QX6850. Is this true? I'd like to save some cash and run it on a P35 board if possible.
Thanks,

Hi all,
A family friend of mine is running Outlook/MS Exchange for their small buisness of about four computers. Anyway, sometimes forwarded e-mails, especially from one particular computer, should up as really small, small text. I checked in the options and the forwarded message font size is...
I'll try that archive and restore thing. Sadly the password reset won't work. I can log in but I just get back to the login screen. It's not the wrong password.
Thanks,
