To some one who works in the electronics indistry this looks like a surface mount capacitor. What you could do is take the card to a local elctronics shop. They can solder wires about the same size as the leads to the cap and then to the board. THe wires should be no longer thane they have to...

I don't know what I realy mean. Just looking for ways to personlize, change things, and experimnet with the old lap top. As far as I have gotten so far is taking off the heat sink and putting on some good heat sink coumpound inplace of the pad. So far so good with that. Oh and have put...

tinyme works good on my old lap top but has small problems with streaming audio. From the same forum as tinyme thier is also PCFluxboxOS . Works good too and nothing fancy to take up too much memory,hard drive or time loading so may keep you cd rom cool.

Just recived a batterie from what I belive to be thr same manufacture but differnt Ebay seller. Ottoman Trade ships very fast from the USA for just a little bit more cash. It holds a charge well, dose not over heat or seem to have any other problems. I used to race battery powered remote...

If you need to use another distro instead of Ubuntu for hardware compatibility with your hard ware and even for ease of use try PCLinuxOS. The PCLinuxOS2007 is a rolling distribution. This means you do not have to reload it onto your hard drive every time they update the kernel. You can...

Ok were is the Superfetch off button :D. I did recently lose 1 gig of memory to a bad mother board. I thought it wise to use my old stuff and not the new good stuff to test a new motherboard. It went with a little puff of smoke and took out my vidieo card and memory along with the boad it...

I have too much acessing of my had drive when useing Vista Home Premium. I know it is a Vista or Vista driver problem as it dose not do this when useing PCLinuxOS on this same system. The hard drive is in almost constant use. Did not do this for the first eight months or so this system has...

First off yes I know intel is a better buy right now. The thing is unless you are going to give me a Intel CPU that is better than a AMD 64 x2 4200 I realy don't care if Intel is a better buy right now . As I all ready have a CPU that only needs a motherboard to complete a computer. Just...

If nothing else works try a SystemRescueCd. It is a free bootable cd which has hard disk partition tools such as Parted. The down load link is http://www.sysresccd.org/download.en.php You will be able to format the free space as fat16 or fat 32 if you wish. Yes I know this is a linux...

Can;t win the lottery, Might as well try this.

If you can afford a 24 ips screen then get it. The Soyo 24" at $300.00 is a very good deal. I listened to every one saying how other screens are so much better and almost did not get the 24" Soyo from Office Max. As it was I went in the Saturday after Black Friday and they had one left in the...

I was lucky and was able to get one the Saterday after black Friday. After hearing about some having problems with it almost did not buy it. If I knew then what I do now I would have been standing in line at midnight to buy one. The only problem I have with it is the video card it takes to...

Problems that EVGA needs to see to. 1. Not posting or publishing about shutdown and extended wait time so people would know not to expect speedy service and waste money on fast shipping. Heck I emailed and when I did not get a good answer other than the standard policy line for the rest of...

I was in the same boat as you. Bought an EVGA video card with the idea I could upgrade. Was waiting for the new batch of cards to come out. Just before my step up window was about to close the 8800GTS 512 came out. I do not have my step up video card back yet. Be prepared for two to three...

My 8800GTS 320 was just delivered to EVGA. Hoping to have a new 8800GTS 512 soon. I too am using an old card to just surf and view email. I am just wondering about the poster who wishes to get the rebate and the step up. Believe that in order to use the step up program you must have the...

This deal just keeps on going and going. While looking at the Office Max add today saw that it was back at $300.00. I was able to pick one of these up the Saturday after black Friday. It has been the best upgrade to my gaming rig since the 3DFX Monster Voodoo 8 meg card. This is large step...

This is what I am looking at. I wish to use two day service with insurance and tracking. UPS from my area is 24.91 not including insurance. USPS is 13.45 plus insurance. UPS next day 52.76 plus insurance. USPS next day 27.60 plus insurance. At this time of the year shipping times are bad...

Has any one used US Mail to send a video card back to EVGA? Did they receive it on time and in good shape. Would like to use UPS but the cost for fast shipping with them is out of sight.

Took a big gamble and got mine on Saterday. They had one left in the back. It is a Sept mfg. date. After being pushed hard for two days is still working great. (nock on wood) Am still holding on to my 22" tn panel Acer until this monitor gets a couple of months on it working good. Then will...

They lost my order. Rec'd the first email that I had placed the order but then never rec'd the second email with order number.

Am thinking of going from a 22"wide screen LCD to a 24" wide screen LCD. The native resolution of 1680 X 1050 of the 22" VS the 1920 X1200 of the 24" has me wondering if my video card is capable of driving a 24" monitor. Is their an review any were that talks about what video card you need for...

1. I would stop trying to decided between not upgrading my cpu, buying a regular AMD x2 6000, or a AMD black edition x2 5000. Then would find out if the CPU is really the bottleneck or if its the GPU and post my findings here and elseware with thanks to both [H]ardOCP and New Egg. 2. Phenom

My Dynex wireless enhanced G desktop card. Model number DX-WGPDTC works great in PCLinuxOS. I have to use the Windows driver with ndiswrapper but it works great. Bought it last year on a deal like this. This Dynex card works as fast and reliable as my Linksys and Asus wirless. It is worth...

Thank you for confirming what I thought. I will not be buying this used processor.

ax1600mtc3 agkga0151gpaw y7440470828 I am trying to figure out if it is a 266 MHZ or a 333 MHZ bus processor. This is a used cpu and that is all the information I have to go on. Thanks
