I doubt that there is or was anything wrong with the machine. Remember that we all use programs different ways. Just because it doesn't crash for you doesn't mean it can't for someone else. On another note, troubleshooting a problem like that is nearly impossible, I tried to find some...

I've seen Itunes bring down an imac about 5 different times. Even with it completely updated. Frankly, I had winxp on my computer for years and it crashed like that once.

They absolutely are, but it would still cost less too by that hard drive and a scsi controller than the ssd drive. It wouldn't be that much faster than a raptor, according to the reviews I looked at it really shines with random data access.

I'm equally lazy, but I just used game exe's that don't require a cd. I'm pretty sure that if you own the game legally you can do this. If this is against the rules of the forum, please let me know and i'll edit this.

These drives are absolutely for laptops at this point. Due to thier lack of moving parts and they use much less power. However, since you seem to be looking for the absolute in speed, even at this devices steep price. I would look into the 15k hard drives. I seriously doubt that a ssd is...

It's hasn't even been an hour and a half since you started this thread, 32 minutes since the last answer. Be patient! :mad: Only thing I can think of is that the website blacklisted your specific computer and or ip address. Especially since you can access it through a proxy. I would contact...

I don't know of any ISP that allows you to share the connection between two houses.

In most cases i would say yes, but its best to check with the manufacturer before you buy something.

My best guess as to why its only on an incoming call is because the phone base broadcasts on every, or most channels when it receives a call. Try changing the channel to 1, 6, and 12 to see if it helps.

The read speeds with raid 5 is faster than the write because when it is writing the data it has to calculate the parity bits and write them as well.

I've known quite a few people with lots of networking book knowledge. Frankly they were just as useful at solving problems as someone who had a basic knowledge. Unless of course the problem was one of the ones in the book.

Its just a discount, i remember seeing it somewhere else on their site.

Clearly you were not running a raid-0 array then, you take one drive out of a 2 drive raid-0 array you've effectively lost half of every file on the computer which makes all these files corrupt.

I agree with this because boot times are going to increase due to the controller having to detect all of the drives at boot.

I would say because that PS is overkill for your system, but based on your sig money is clearly not an issue.

You have to boot from the install cd, windows cannot format the drive it is running from.

Right click on my computer, click on manage. Go to disk management, right click on the new hard disk and select format.

You should go over some of the problems that they could have with it. Like every script kiddie in the city trying out their 1337 hacks on the wireless network. And trying to keep people from getting into other computers.

Concrete walls are one the worst things for wireless to get through effectively. But befroe you try to do that, are you sure that your ISP allows this kind of thing?

Since this is happening whenever ony when Azureus runs, its highly doubtful its a DDoS attack. You're just seeing bittorent do what it normally does. Send out connections to peers, and receive connections from peers. Try lowering the maximum simultaneous outbound connections, and the Max...

Sorry to take this a little of subject, but could you explain what window scaling is?

WPA kills wireless speed, its the price you pay for wireless "security." It is unlikely that you will ever achieve wired performance with wireless.

Isn't the GPU already only for graphics rendering?

Well, the circuit city website doesn't say much of anything about the actual specs of the card, so the only difference is the very end of the model number.

Because games need to have low pings, and most other web traffic you wouldn't notice the higher ping times.

Since you only play a couple games and spend more time online i think that getting a Raptor would be overkill for you.

I was going with the possibility that it was coming loose sometimes but not enough to actually stop the drive.

Try unplugging the data and power cable for the hard drive. Don't forget the data cable on the motherboard. Then plug them back in and see if you have the problem anymore.

Pevo is talking about theoretical peak bandwidth. I had my raid 0 array on a sata 150 controller for a long time. Burst was always about 120MB/s. Then i put it on a sata 300 controller, and the burst speed went up to about 210MB/s.

Actually, that's really good. Transfer speed in on par with two raptors in raid 0

I don't know of any software raid with online capacity expansion. But i do know that some of the high end raid controllers support this. The more discs that you add to an array the higher the likelyhood of one of them failing. I'm not totally sure what amount of discs in an array would warrant...

Good point, the computer could have a static ip.

Heat would definately not be a probelm with those componenets, just don't put a computer or something like that in there. With the reception you migh have problems depending on what the cabinet is made out of and how thick it is.

Try pinging her friends computer, make sure if it has a firewall that its off while you do that. If that works try pinging google or some other common website.

See if you can find some newer drivers for you drive. If you can't it sounds like a bug specific to that drive, let microsoft know about it so they can fix it.

I'm willing to bet that new computer wouldn't survive 3 feet

You should try using the full download of .net framework. .net framework 1.1 .net framework 2.0

You could set up a vpn that you use when you need to print files.

Right click the refresh button and unselect bookmarks toolbar, this fixed the problem for me.

You shouldn't be able to notice a difference between them, but i am suprised that a 40GB hard drive came with a 16MB cache normally they use smaller ones on smaller hard drives.
