    modifying internal pc speaker

    A typical PC speaker is an 8 ohm load, you'd be better off using a small value resistor in series instead of a kilo-ohm range potentiometer which would give you a limited real world range of adjustability. Try experimenting with different value resistors (resistors are cheap), I'm guessing...

    More than 12v from PSU?

    What are you guys talking about? Are you saying to connect the red and yellow voltage rails together? You shouldn't do that, you'll definitely fry something doing that. How many volts do you need and what for?

    Post pics of your old rig!

    The Cyrix chip is the math coprocessor for the AMD 286 12MHz cpu below it. I have the computer in my closet collecting dust except for once in a blue moon when I hook it up to relive old memories :)

    PSU capacitor solder question!

    that will only work if the caps are on the positive rails with respect to ground. Really, if you connected them wrong they would most likely have exploded by now and if not, when you open up your PSU again you'll find them to be very unhappy looking (bulging). One thing about replacing polarized...

    fade-in/fade-out leds (not throbbing)

    Using a large capacitor is not a good idea. You'll be drawing more current than is safe from your PSU when charging a 0.5F cap which would likely cause problems with your hardware, also considering this is a xbox mod you also have space limitations which a 0.5F cap doesn't meet.

    7800GT DVI + Samsung P2665W HDTV

    check your manual for the samsung display... There should be a video filter that you can enable that will make text sharper... I forget what it is called, but if you look for it you should be able to find it.
