Hi there, looking for help with a small machine that I would like to pop a few of my spare HDs in for storage, and either use only as storage or (more likely) run XBMC on it to output to my TV, preferably via HDMI (would need low-profile HDMI-out video card right?). Appreciate any help on...

1. I just bought a laptop and this came with the Quick Start Guide package: Picture. They're foamy/soft and supposed to stick on something, what do I do with these? :) 2. On my desktop I've tried Core Temp and Speedfan, and the CPU temperature readings are quite different: Coretemp shows ~55...

A friend of mine just got an ASUS Transformer tablet, and he has the Nokia CS-18 (Rogers Rocket Stick). We have tried: - D-Link DIR-412 (CS-18 stick works, but this needs to be plugged in to an outlet) - Aluratek/Zalip CDM530AM (has a li-ion battery, but tried every firmware and every...

I am a linux user on a desktop machine of Q6600/8gb ram/8800GT/4TB storage, I basically watch everything on my monitor as it's just me in an office room in house living with brother. Now I am going to get an HDTV to watch everything off the pc, but not looking for advice on the tv, rather...

I have a Rogers cable modem and Linksys WRT54GS (stock firmware but updated to latest Linksys one), all has worked fine for several years with typical minor hitches here or there. This last week or so, however, my internet connection is dropping constantly, this is so bad that as an example I...

Am trying to help a friend fix their pc, it's an Acer Aspire m160. Basically, it powers on, sounds fine but does nothing-- no keyboard response, nothing displays, doesn't even show BIOS. (Have tried multiple peripherals to narrow down, it's definitely the comp). I unplugged the hard drive...

Our office cable modem (we have Rogers portable, this modem) just died. Went through the diagnostics and all, it's fizzed. We are about to get a new one and are wondering if we should buy one from Rogers, rent or buy one elsewhere? Appreciate any help, thanks.

Well I've been testing some LCDs the last few weeks, really love the Samsung 27". Just amazing picture and quality, and I was thinking of keeping it, but I am curious. I don't use HDTV (I don't even watch TV), I am pretty safe to say a DVD/movie maniac exclusively. That's all I want my screen to...

What kind of cleaning method do you use? What's the longest you leave it on idle? What's your timer to activate screensaver? Should I turn it off whenever I am leaving it idle for a few minutes, or is that okay? I leave my PC on all the time, so overnight is it okay to turn the LCD off or...

I'm far from an expert but here's my "review," hopefully helps anyone looking for a monitor if not this one specifically. I went to Future Shop today, initially seeking the LG246WP, so I walked in and told the guy I wanted it. 15 minutes later, after talking to the manager and spending 10 mins...

I was reading some reviews and one review that recommended the Samsung 245B as a solid monitor mentioned that despite it being great, the 275T was kind of pointless to get since it is a 1920x1200 monitor and it's the same res, just at a bigger size. Is this true and if so, does it apply to...

Hey folks I've been scouring the net and seen reviews and threads on various forums about the various models, and of course they all have some good and some bad. I intend to get a 24" LCD, and I don't play any games at all, maybe once a month, and mainly want just a nice screen to use the...
