    iCloud Keychain

    Am I missing something obvious or is the only way to import existing passwords from the login keychain to drag and drop them in Keychain Access and then enter your master password for each single password you copy over? I've culled over 1000 entries to around 500 but damn I'm not typing my...

    Hard community BF3 servers thread

    Figured we could use a consolidated thread with a list of servers at the top to keep track of for playing together. Setup my Sinistrals server in Seattle for Conquest 64 last night and probably getting another for Rush 32 in California. Official [H]Gaming servers: [H]ard Battlefield 3 Rush...

    Dragon Age II stuttering with high FPS

    I'm getting horrible stuttering while maintaining a steady 60FPS. The characters move very jerky and when I try to move the entire world jerks and stutters horrificly even with fraps reporting a steady high FPS. Tried with and without vsync/triple buffering forced in d3doverrider. Just installed...

    Lion impressions

    I'm running Lion DP4 on my Macbook Air and for the most part I am enjoying it. My only dislikes so far: - The awful iOS looking Address Book and iCal. iCal is the worst offender here. This takes me back to earlier OS X days with the mish mash of terrible brushed metal everywhere. Major step...

    Constant amdkmdap crashes in several games only at the main menus (6970)

    During the introduction videos and the main menu of Left 4 Dead 1 + 2, The Witcher, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, and Call of Duty Black Ops I am encountering 10-15 second locks and "display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered" along with piles of UVD...

    DisplayPort KVMs compatible with 27 ACD

    Anyone had any luck finding a miniDP or DP KVM for use with their 27" ACD? I have a Atlona AT-MDP21 which works great in OS X but on my Windows 7 machine I'm greeted with "DisplayPort Lower Settings Applied" complaining about a possible error with the cable or GPU or display from my XFX HD6970...

    Extreme packet loss with bridged Airport Express

    I just got an Airport Express to connect to my AppleTV sans wifi mini-pci-e card (swapped it out for a Broadcom Crystalizer HD for 1080p h264 under XBMC) with only ethernet to an existing wireless network and I'm encountering rather extreme packet loss. I first noticed it when I was unable to...

    Apple Mail 5 (one can dream)

    One thing I've always been bothered by in email clients is the lack of decent integration with gmail IMAP. With the recent mobile me mail beta changes bringing things inline with the iPhone and iPad interfaces I tossed this mockup together of how I wish mail looked when using multiple gmail...

    Canon axes SED development

    (Win7) Frequent data corruption with Internet Connection Sharing

    Preface: Please - no snarky comments about getting a better connection. Living with this garbage dialup for what must be fifteen years I'm well aware how bad I need broadband. 3g is capped at a sad 3gb/mo with rather spotty coverage and satellite is expensive for a 250mb/day cap when its not...

    SL: Duplicate colour profiles in display prefs

    Is anyone else running into this in 10.6? Checked the colour profiles directory for dupes and there is only one of each. I've tried deleting the prefs in ByHost and any of the plists with color in the name. Which plist is the display options saved in?

    MBP multimonitor options

    I've found the Matrix Dual/Triple head to go which doesn't work for me because I need independent displays, the ViDock GFX but it has an incredibly loud fan which I can't stand and the Magma ExpressBox + 7300GT but its a bit out of my current budget at $750+160 USD on top of the displays (sRGB...

    Playing STALKER: Shadows of Chernobyl with oblivion lost and float32 I end up with a hard lock (grey screen) and when I reboot my system gets stuck in a loop powering up over and over unable to post.

    Single Ear Wireless PC Headsets?

    Are there any headsets comparable to the single ear wireless headsets for the PC like the PS3 and 360? I use my 5.1 speakers and just want voice through the headset but haven't had any luck finding such a thing.

    CRC errors reading discs under XP32, fine under Vista64?

    Installing games such as Prince of Persia and NWN2 Storm of Zehir under XP32 SP3 I am getting CRC errors constantly. Under Vista64 SP1 they install fine with no errors. Latest firmware for my Pioneer DVR-111D. Any ideas why it would suddenly start throwing errors under XP only? Specs in the...

    FED monitors in 2009

    http://www.oled-display.info/sony-shows-gran-turismo-on-a-19-inch-fed-display-with-240-fps As much as I know better than to buy first generation products I think I'll be tempted to run from the LCD the moment these are available. I just hope they see the light of day in 2009 unlike all the...

    Lian Li PC-V1100Plus 120mm blower fan alternatives

    Is there any alternatives available to the included 120mm blower in the Lian Li PC-V1100Plus? I have been looking and have not found anything but crappy small and loud fans that mount in the expansion slots as opposed to overhead of them. The one I have now developed a god awful rattle I...

    8800GT or LCD problem?

    In short: Is the 8800GT 512 (g92) or the display crapping out here? Long: Recently to my dismay I encountered some strange artifacting (if you can call it that, looks similar to ghosting from interference) in EVE a few weeks ago. It went away after I quit the game and didn't happen for a...

    Gateway FPD2185w or 8800GT artifacting?

    Recently to my dismay I encountered some strange artifacting in EVE a few weeks ago. It went away after I quit the game and didn't happen for a week so I wrote it off as a 'meh eve, shitty ccp programming' thing. However I ran into the same artifacts now in Baldur's Gate and Sins of a Solar...

    E8400 & E3110 availability and pricing in Canada

    The pricing and availability seems pretty bad here in the frozen north. Does anyone know of any american stores that ship to Canada that have them closer to MSRP? $249 CAD from NCIX for the E8400 which has a MSRP of $183 USD seems a bit too expensive to me. The best option I can find in Canada...

    loginwindow crash + ATSServer fatal error

    About a week ago I had what I at first thought was a kernel panic (screen went blue, sound stopped) but then the login window popped up rather than the reboot message. I again had the problem today. Previously the problem has never happened in the 3 or so months since I purchased my MBP. I can't...

    MBP Sleep/Power Indicator LED

    Is there anyway to control the brightness of the white sleep/on LED when the lid is closed? It lights up my whole room at night making it rather hard to sleep so I have been leaning a ruler against the light for now but its rather annoying to move every morning/night.

    Lian Li PC V1000P vs V1100P for noise/cooling performance

    I've been looking for a new case for my system for awhile now as the noise from my five 80mm case fans is driving me nuts (even more so since one of them started to make some awful squeals and etc). I have decided on going with Lian Li PC-V series, so please, no posting/flaming about how the...
