    HD3850 with 170W Dell PSU

    so I had to stop using the 9700 pro because the screen would black out after awhile of being on - I replaced it with the only thing I had lying around (Rage 128 Pro) and I stopped having that problem. Is there a way to see this was happening due to a lack of power or is it silly to even think...

    Order from Dell

    Just thought I would write back on how this issue went. I called Dell tech support again after the order was returned, got passed between a few operators, was finally able to explain my problem to customer service representative, at which point the the person said "I am sorry for this...

    Order from Dell

    So I just ordered a piece of hardware from Dell. Unfortunately, they managed to muff up not only the shipping address but the name of the person to ship it to. So when the package fails to reach an address that doesn't exist, there is no way for me to go pick it up since I can't prove that I'm...

    If I don't have something old lying around (I will look), is there a place where one can buy cheap junk like that?

    9700 Pro HSF

    Hey I'm looking for recomendations on a replacement heatsink-fan for a Radeon 9700 Pro. I know it's an old card but it still runs some games I play and the fan is dying causing it to get too hot and thus crash my computer sometimes. I should be able to use something not even really designed...

    Windows Mobile Device but not a cell phone

    It looks like this is called a "Pocket PC", so does anybody know a good place to find reviews on such things? Or can anyone just recommend a really good one? I would like to pay less rather than more, of course.

    Windows Mobile Device but not a cell phone

    Is there such a thing as a windows mobile device that isn't a cell phone? I just want to be able to connect to a wireless network but not have cell phone service (because I don't want to pay for the latter).

    Custom Benchmarking

    Reading this post got me to thinking - has anyone tried writing their own multi-threaded programs to to test the performance of these new quad-core hyper threading systems? Are there benchmark programs designed specifically with this sort of analysis in mind? Even if there is, I think it would...

    Downloading a Legit Copy of Windows

    So I'm not trying to butt heads with you on anything - I realize that the only way to download a copy of Windows XP online is to go through one of the portals you described. And we are in agreement with the fact that it doesn't seem like a security measure to prohibit the distribution of...

    Downloading a Legit Copy of Windows

    And after looking at the replies again, I just thought I would explicitly state one more time that I HAVE A SERIAL KEY FOR WINDOWS THAT I RECEIVED WHEN I PAYED FOR WINDOWS. There is no *wink wink* implied here, I just am trying to get a fricken' copy of a legit Windows Installation image so...
