I also recommend this card. I just purchased one myself the other day and I am amazed at the specs for the overall price. Check your PSU though and make sure it's 20A and the +12V rail or it wont run quite as fast. Good card though.

Take out the CMOS battery and plug it back in ofter a few seconds, or just reflash it.. If that doesn't work unplug all the stuff you don't need to start it up and try again.

I'm ready to purchase a new AM2 motherboard from Asus. Naturally it is the next best innovation but I don't like the whole new cage design that I keep seeing.It wouldn't matter to me if you could use other coolers on it but completely removing compatibility with all other coolers makes no sense...

Ok thanks for the input. I looked into the EVGA Step Up program. It sounds good and I'm sure I'll qualify. My only concern is that DX10 cards wont be available by that time since it's only good for 90 days. About when should I buy the card or should I just say to hell with it and get it now.?

So then why is everyone waiting to buy new cards when 10 comes out if it is supported by all the DX9 cards that are out now?

I'm thinking about picking up a 7950, but I keep hearing things about havibng to buy a new one with DX10. Everyone seems to think all other cards won't be able to run it. I think the 7950 will do just fine. Especially since on the picture below the box says "Vista Compatible". So whats everyone...

^^^ Yeah.

If it's possible to find a 6600 or gt for agp then by all means get it. The price won't be that steep and it will take care of the games you listed. You might have to turn F.E.A.R. down though. I have a 6800 OC but it's PCI Express x16 and I have it maxed but the game only gets about 50 FPS average.

I would get rid of the nano. The size of the video iPod is probably hardly a concern and all the space can be used for so many other things besides music. I have used my iPods in the past as external hard drives. Plus I have a video now and once you start watching em' you can't stop. :p

It says do not diconnect just like any other iPod would. i should also mention that this isn't a problem with the iPod as i have plugged it into my old Dell since it would not work on this one and have uploaded my old library with no problem whatsoever. So the problem is with either my USB ports...

I tried the volume management tool but everytime and I got nothing except I managed somhow to open the folder but had no links to it of any kind. I still doesn't show up in My Computer or in iTunes. And when I try to use the updater it asks me to plug in an iPod. When I disconnect it and...

Unfortunately the virtual drive removal did not fix the problem. I figured maybe it couldn't work unless it was the next available drive after C: . COuld still use some help with this one!!!!

Well thanks for the restarting idea :p , but that didn't work. It could be that I have some virtual drives for games. That could cause the problem that (7\) stated. I'll try to get rid of my virtual drives if possible and try it out.

Well, I'm just assuming that's what the 4-pin connector is (not part of the 24-pin large motherboard connector, just the separate 4-pin connector near the CPU heatsink). I'm wondering if it's necessary. Or rather, if the computer would function without it. While working on my friend's...

I need some help with my new iPod. For one reason or another I can't get it to connect to my new computer. It's a custom build and everything else works fine as my mouse and keyboard are both Usb. But my iPod doesn't show up in Itunes or in My Computer. The only indication that it's plugged in...
