    Questions replacing 80gb ssd boot drive with 250gb ssd

    Samsung software worked like a charm. Took about 20 minutes. Thanks for the help. Now how do I go about re-using the old OCZ ssd? Can I just connect it and win7 will assign it a new drive name, then delete everything and start using it?

    Questions replacing 80gb ssd boot drive with 250gb ssd

    Ok thanks. When they arrive I'll see how they sound plugged into the control pod. If the sound levels are too low, I'll plug them directly into the sound card.

    Senn PC350 questions

    I have a Sony MDR-CD480 head set that is about 14 years old and starting to fall apart. So I just ordered the Sennheiser PC350's on sale for $70 off as a replacement. Knowing that they have an impedance of 150 ohms I was initially a bit concerned. The sound card I have is the Asus Xonar DG with...

    Dead motherboard perhaps?

    So I seem to have a motherboard with 4of 6 sata ports that are unresponsive. Both Gigabyte SATA2 ports and 2 of the four Intel ICH8 are not working. To use the boot/app drive and the CD/DVD, I have to disconnect my storage drive. Or to access the storage drive, I have to disconnect the CD/DVD to...

    Dead motherboard perhaps?

    So I do have an IDE DVD...dohhh. Disconnected it, but there was no change. I disconnected the lights, second DVD and storage drive but left the boot drive connected, but moved the connector to a different port on the board. This time it did boot up, but very slow. About 10 minutes in total. Once...

    Dead motherboard perhaps?

    So thru trial and error, I think my issue is a dead motherboard, but I would appreciate some input from those more knowledgable. Several weeks ago we had a power failure. On restart, my wife's computer (the one in my sig below) went into a boot loop. It will post, do the memory test and then...

    Antec 900/1200 Popularity

    I also had the original 900 for about 2 years and recently changed it out for a hafx. My major gripes with the 900 were lack of space behind the mobo tray ( and everywhere else) to do some decent wire management. Yes, it's still do-able, but not quick and easy like in the hafx. Also, a general...

    Ok thanks. My fan headers are the same. I have the cpu cooler to cpu_fan and the top and rear on pwr_fan and sys_fan-1 respectively. I've left sys_fan-2 alone and put the front intake on a 4 pin molex.

    Gigabyte P67A-UD3P-B3 fan connections

    Some fan connection assistance please. On this board there are a 4 pin and a 3 pin fan header (and the 4 pin cpu fan header). With this board installed in a Haf X, is it ok to connect the front or top or rear fans to the board headers or should I connect them directly to the psu 4 pin molex. If...

    Looking for a True Red CCFL. Not Pink or orange..

    There's a craft store near us that sells the crinkly transparent plastic sheets that people use to wrap flowers or line gift baskets. They have about 10 colours. I also didn't want pink light, so I bought a couple of sheets of the red and used it to wrap my ccfl's. You can increase the...
