    Dell D600 LCD / Graphics Problem

    I have a Dell Lattitude D600 whose LCD is acting up. Here are pictures: (In BIOS) (On Windows Logon Screen) I know it is a hardware issue. So my only question is it a graphics card problem (and thus a mobo problem) or is it a LCD problem? Thanks.

    The Router Recommendations Thread (Consumer)

    wtburnette, do all your clients connect in 802.11N? What mode is your router using, ie 802.11g, 802.11n, or mixed mode 802.11n/g? What encryption are you using, ie security? What channel is your router on and are there any other routers in that channel? Is it in 20Mhz or 40Mhz mode? You might...

    First, totally not a long post. Second, sounds like GNUCash should be able to do everything they need it to. I'd look into that.

    Gaming build

    Have you tried anything yet? Everything connected properly (ie GPU auxiliary power)? Immediately what comes to mind is to check that the GPU is properly seated, ie take it out and firmly put it back in. Try a different USB port for the keyboard (if USB). Is the monitor responsive?

    My goal, by 2011

    Does the Bed to Window dimension include the the little bed stand? One way or the other I think a Corner Desk of some sorts that goes from your dresser along the wall to your bed stand would be the best option. Perhaps something like this (not sure if it's too big or small). That Galant series...

    New Model Corsair H50 CWCH50-1

    Two fans are better than one, link. And I think I've seen users with the H50 radiator fan exhausting who had slightly worse temps than when it was an intake, basically negligible.

    Multiple Computers; 1 house; who will die?!

    This is life. After doing further research I'm gunning for getting a Linksys WRT610N in the basement and then a Netgear WNR834B for the 2nd story computer, to either act as a wireless bridge or a WDS station. Both of these routers are Broadcom based, as such I don't 'forsee' any problems in...

    Computer Engineering Technology Online Through DeVry Online?

    Well, they are two different degrees as far as I know. Comp Eng is more theoretical based, ie understanding why things work, whereas Comp Eng Technology is more practical. There's also Mechanical Engineering Technology, etc. At least that's how it was when I was taking some engineering courses...

    How does my office (or computer room) look?

    If you change the blinds you run into the siding parts being a different color ... i think changing the desk ... *might* be easier.

    I like the new desk better as things don't feel so cramped. Though is that third monitor going to be used? or is it just temp. storage?

    $2,500 Total Awesomeness Build - Need Advice

    I feel that with this memory, you are paying an extra $100 for the low timings (which, frankly, do not provide much of a performance benefit) and for RAM that runs at 1.65V. For the i7/i5s 1.65V is the absolute maximum voltage you can use, any higher and you run a serious risk of frying...

    i7-920 Built Help Needed (the proper way)

    Not at all. Windows 7 Pro and Ultimate support the same amount of RAM. Really? Oh, my bad. I thought you were building a computer to use Windows 3.1. woops. I'd even written out a whole build for it. =-/ In this age, you can build a computer that will last 5 years. On the other hand, building...

    Help me figure out my wiring situation, and what plugs i need.

    You need to find out if said tv set top box has HDMI out or not; if it does not, trying to connect it to your monitor will cost you. If it does, then I'd do: HDMI-> TV Set top box DVI -> PC VGA -> Xbox EDIT: As far as I know, you can't do Component -> DVI/HDMI/VGA on most monitors. It depends...

    Need to Build a Basic Internet Computer for my Mother In-Law

    No idea on the quality of that PSU with that case. If it is bad, you can snag the Antec EA430 for 44.99 + FS and some G.Skill 2x1GB DDR2800 for 49.99. Total: 298.97 If it is a good PSU, then I'd say grab G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2 800 for 81.99. Total: 285.98 You are going to be shafted another ~$20...

    Trying to keep build at 600USD level

    Frankly, in my opinion, HG's build is better than your wishlist. 1. The Phenom II X3 720 is a better choice than that x4 you chose. While the x3 720 does have one less core, it has the potential to unlock the fourth and it is multiplier unlocked. That is important to me, though not sure if you...

    Good thread. Shame on the H50, not fitting; I like that cooler, it feels very steam punk.
