    Computer suddenly stopped POSTing

    Not that anyone cares judging by the lack of responses, but...I removed three of the four 2 GB RAM sticks and it BOOTS up and goes into Windows! This is a simple problem that I can solve! I'm so happy.

    Computer suddenly stopped POSTing

    My computer worked fine two days ago, but now it no longer POSTs. When I go to start it the power comes on and the fans run, but I do not receive a signal to the monitor. Also, the mouse lights up (but not the optical sensor part) and the keyboard caps/num/scroll lock lights turn on (and I...

    Replacing a shorted Mouse or Keyboard cable

    How would you know which wires to solder together? As far as I know it's not like a power cable where the cable is a single mass of undifferentiated copper threads.

    Replacing a shorted Mouse or Keyboard cable

    It's time for a thread bump since this is a great topic and the issue has never been resolved. Now I'm interested in resurrecting that Sidewinder keyboard.

    Antec 300 side fan filter issue.

    Now that I think about it. I can just tape used dryer fabric softner sheets to the side and it doesn't matter if the grate sticks out and it would be free. Ghetto, but free.

    Antec 300 side fan filter issue.

    I just obtained an Antec 300 case and I'd like to add a side intake fan and filter. However, the grill (integrated with the side panel) sticks out. I want to add this magnetic filter on the outside, would I have a problem? Would I need to take a rubber mallet and pound the grate flat...

    Keyboard Light -- Like a Razer Battlelight

    I've thought about that possibility--getting the USB gooseneck lamps. But can you change the LEDs in them to get a blue glow?

    Keyboard Light -- Like a Razer Battlelight

    I might be interested in getting a blue light to aim down at my keyboard -- something like a Razer Battlelight (which as far as I know you can only use with the Razer Tarantula keyboard): http://www.xoxide.com/razer-battle-light.html Does anyone else make something similar? I'm thinking...

    Sidewinder X6 Keyboard -- replacing the cord?

    I have a Sidewinder X6 keyboard, and I think the cable has gone bad. When using the keyboard, it would cut off on me now and then and go unresponsive. I think the light would go off too. Has anyone ever replaced the cable on one of these? I think it's an OK keyboard. I like the...

    Replacing a shorted Mouse or Keyboard cable

    I have a mouse that might be on its last legs--probably as the result of a short in the cable. I've grown to love the feel of this mouse (Ideazon Reaper Edge/HP Voodoo DNA), but the cord may have a short in it somewhere. My cat loves the mouse, too, so much so that she likes to lay her ass...

    Cyber Snipa Warboard keyboard

    I'm contemplating purchasing a Cyber Snipa Warboard keyboard to replace a crappy illuminated Logisys keyboard. Has anyone here ever owned one and would you purchase it again (if it were under $25)?
