I've somehow ended up with 8GB of Kingston server RAM. It's the KVR1333D3D8R9SK2/8G modules: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820139575&Tpk=KVR1333D3D8R9SK2 I need to build a server that can accept this particular RAM (tried it on a couple desktop machines and no post)...

I have a laptop that I am fixing for a friend. I'm installing a bigger hard drive in it and it is a dell so it has this little hidden partition at the beginning of the drive for the dell diagnostic utility. I have connected the drive to my main pc (windows 7 ultimate x64) using an external USB...

I have an interesting problem that I have not been able to fix. It all started when my keyboard died and I had to get a new one. I bought a fairly cheap one from ebay, with illuminated keys. My old keyboard also had illuminated keys, but it has transparent keys and EL backing for the...

This has been bugging me since a few versions ago. When the Awesome bar was first introduced to firefox it would display starred favorites and search history when the drop down arrow was clicked. I liked this functionality a lot and got very used to it. Well an update came along (can't...

Recently I've been bored with playing the newer games over and over so I started digging up some older games and playing them. I most recently played Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic I & II. Well I found some hi res texture packs for them that made them a little more pretty by today's...

I am currently downloading the Win7 RC to replace my current Vista Ultimate x64 OS. I have a Xbox 360 that I use as a media extender to watch all of my videos on. With Vista, I've been using ffdshow and Tversity to stream/transcode to the 360. I basically only use it because I have some MKV...

I'm trying to download a free online game that is broken up into 65 different rar files. My internet connection isn't the fastest around (Sprint Mobile Broadband) so I can really only download one at a time in firefox. The problem is that I have to sit and wait about 5-10 minutes for each...

I sold a laptop (HP Pavillion ze4115) on Ebay a few weeks ago and when the person that bought it received it, the hard drive died in it out of nowhere. Kind of sucks because I tested the laptop extensively and put a fresh copy of WinXP on it before sending it out, seemed to be in perfect working...

I just received a Dell Inspiron 1150 to fix for a friend. I'm pretty sure that the battery is dead because when I plug in the AC adapter I get several orange blinks and then a green blink from the battery status light over and over. When I try to turn on the laptop, I get just a blank screen...

I've got a Email form on my site so that customers can contact me. My host (1and1) only suggested "Formmail.pl" (perl) which calls for sendmail. Only problem is that I can't implement a "Captcha" or image verification into the form without rewriting the perl script. I've tried setting up several...

I've been using this Chimei CMV 937A 19" Widescreen LCD since 2007 and just the other day when I turned it on there were waves moving rapidly up the screen. I jiggled the cables, plugged it into a different outlet, tried a different video card... still there. The only thing I did that made it...

I recently bought some Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2 800 PC-6400 ram. I got four 1G sticks. I also ordered a Gigabyte GA-EP43-DS3L motherboard and a E7200 chip.

I'm about to upgrade my system to a Gigabyte GA-EP43-DS3L mobo and an Intel E7200 chip. I'll be using 4 gigs of memory so I want to install either vista or xp 64 to utilize all 4 gigs. Will this setup be able to run 64 bit os's or will I be stuck with a 32bit os and wasted ram space?

Recently my system began acting really strange. After I boot into XP, the first program I run takes forever to load, like 1-3 minutes. It doesn't matter what app I try to run, even the Task manager does it. I can't run anything else while I'm waiting for it to load. As soon as it loads up...

I'm shopping around for a few upgrades for my gaming rig and I'm looking at the BIOSTAR TForce TP45D2-A7 LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard. Have any of you ran one of these? Is this a good board for gaming and some modest overclocking or should I be looking at something else? I'm moving...

I'm thinking about upgrading my system soon and I'd like to go ahead and get a good HSF for it ahead of time so I can put it on before I install the mobo. I'm looking at a Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 Wolfdale 2.53GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core CPU, so what do you guys recommend that would allow some...

Okay, I'm running XP on both machines in question. All the updates, yatta yatta. One has two NIC cards and is running ICS as my DHCP server. My Cable modem goes in one, the 10/100 switch gets the other. My other machine is connected to the switch via it's 10/100 NIC card. Now whenever I try to...
