    Reset vs power off/on

    Lets assume you have both buttons. My understanding is reset would be better for your PC rather than using the power button for the same function. But it doesn't really make a difference?

    Reset vs power off/on

    Generally speaking doing hard reset is better for your PC than power off/on, right? Can you list all the reasons and specifics. I only know something vaguely about the HDD. Something like with the power off it's bad for the HDD to power the PC back on when it hasn't fully spinned down. And...

    Street Fighter IV PC

    Is the in-game FPS display counter buggy or what? I have everything maxed out and it shows constant 60 fps but when I ran Fraps alongside it then Fraps fps counter can fall to 40s during ultra. edit: Nevermind, it's becasue of the fixed frame rate setting that drops frames to keep the game...

    Starcraft 2 Beta

    I'm gonna say you can't? Considering it says in the system requirements that 1024x768 is the minimum display resolution.

    bootmgr error

    Changing the cable did the trick... So either it wasn't plugged in properly or was faulty (first time I used it).

    bootmgr error

    I tired that, then it just got stuck on the Gigabyte boot screen. Then I tried to set CD-ROM master and HDD slave and got the "bootmgr is missing" error just as with the slave master other way around. How are you suppose to set the drives with just one cable then? Or could it mean the hdd is...

    bootmgr error

    Ok, I have CD-ROM and HDD both connected with the same IDE cable (only one IDE slot on the mobo), Then with jumpers HDD set as master and CD-ROM as slave. HDD is formatted so I'm trying to install WinXP so I set the first boot device as CD-ROM in BIOS, 2nd and 3rd ones disabled. Now the thing...

    Black optical drive and white case

    Maybe a stupid question but I've been out of loop for a while. Basically I'm trying to buy a second hand DVD burner and most of the offers I get are of black version. Or when you open DVD Burners section at Newegg all the drives are black. Is it because nowadays there are much more black or...

    Firefox download manager and timestamp

    That's the feature that a standalone download manager has... So Firefox could have something to do with it if their dl manager wouldn't be so bare bones.
