I keep my OS on a SSD and my files stored on a separate HDD. Normally works fine (and makes upgrades like 7 to 8 easier) but I didn't realize a folder was encrypted when I went from 7 to 8. I don't have a windows.old folder or any old certificates.

Apparently 1 folder with ~10 files was encrypted from my old install of Windows 7. It was saved on my back-up hard drive, separate than the OS drive, and could be accessed without any special procedure when Windows 7 was installed. I "upgraded" to Windows 8 without realizing it was encrypted and...

Awesome, thanks for the response. I unplugged my data drives and went ahead and did it via the registry edit instead of formatting since I did that about 4 hours ago. Improved my WEI for HDD from 7.1 to 7.8! Never knew it could make such a difference.

Hello, I have been running Windows 7 64bit on this SSD for a while and its worked fine but I've recently seen more info about how I should switch from IDE to AHCI through bios to optimize performance as it enables NCQ. I've done some research but wanted to get a direct answer from my questions...

I have the following promo codes from purchasing a graphics card. I won't be using the coupons which activate a copy of the game through Steam. Full download details/instructions will be sent upon request or purchase. All items sold pending funds. 2x Deus Ex:HR sold 2x Shogun 2 sold...

Thanks again Newegg for taking my request into consideration and giving a discount code for the 6870! Ordered yesterday and am anxiously waiting for my new toys!

Thanks Neweggman! It's nice to see a company as big as Newegg taking individual customers comments/requests into consideration!

How about a deal on this video card? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150521 Looking to purchase 2 within the next 2-3 weeks once the price is right. They've been as low as $150AR not too long ago so something similar or better would be very nice :)

Thank you very much for your answers! It is very helpful! New question then, do you think one 6970 would be a better idea than 2 6870s? I know I would only be able to use 5 monitors since none can daisy chain but thats fine. Or if I wanted to use more can I use a nVidia card I already have at...

I'm upgrading my rig and plan on getting two 6870s to run 5-6 monitors. My question is about the configuration options I would have. I have done a lot of looking around and can't find a lot on eyefinity/multiple monitor support with these card so any help is appreciated. -Can I run either...

Sounds good, did you see this in store or was it advertised anywhere?

Decent deal on the processors, especially if you don't have Microcenter nearby. I can still go down the street and get a 2500k for $193 with tax though. Frys has them for $180 online as well... Oh, and since I'm in Texas I pay tax on $199 vs 179, no thanks.

Thanks for the response! I haven't purchased anything yet, but is there a specific reason to go with the i5 2500k? Obviously I don't have anything against Intel since thats whats in my rig now but it seems like with some of the AMD chips you get more bang for your buck. Either way thanks for the...

Looking to upgrade my current computer from intel E8400 (mainly cause I don't like my ASUS motherboard) and plan on getting the 1090T. It is more power than I will use but seems more "future proof" for a fair price. Right now I am running 3 monitors and a TV off an 8800GT and a GT240. As of now...

Thanks for the responses. That right there is enough to make me not like this ASUS board. However petty it may be, how hard can it be to include that option in the BIOS? They'll let me change the voltage and just about anything else, but a simple "Sleep mode LED state=blinking/off" is out of the...

I figure it had something to do with mobo settings but I've looked at all I can find and still nothing. My computer is in my bedroom and the blinking drives me crazy when I'm trying to sleep. I recently changed mobo's from a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L to an ASUS P5N-D to support 2 video cards and...

Agree with most others. It's nice to see another vendor in the market- some of the others have gone downhill with quality and customer service in the past few months. If Galaxy takes this and learns from the other companies mistakes they can establish themselves as one of the top vendors of...

no more free shipping on the mobo?

I'm adding more monitors and need a card to drive them...Not looking to upgrade edit: Yea, thats the card I found and it looks nice. I don't have a problem paying $20/30 more than budgeted for an upgrade then I can move my 8800gt to secondary. Will that card allow me to do 'surround' on 2...

I don't need the newest and greatest with the top performance, but I do like mid range items because I keep my components for a long time. I know everything will be outdated within a week of buying it anyways but I plan to keep most of my parts until they crap out. Found this on Newegg and about...

How about a deal on a 1GB GTS 250? Need another mid range vid card. Unfortunately I'm in Texas so I have to pay tax :( but a deal would offset that :)

I have found another 8800GT for ~$50 and it sounds like a good deal. The only thing I'm still confused about is power consumption. In most of the tests here, the 8800GT draws less power than GT 240 or GTS 250 and many newer cards. But on the last test (page 6) when it broke it down by power...

I am not looking for an upgrade, simply something to run more monitors. Initially I was going to get a PCI-e x1 card to run a 3rd monitor/TV but that option didn't work so now I am upgrading mobos to one that has 2 pci-e x16 bus's. Since I had planned on a pci-e x1 card I had budgeted ~$60...

Ok, I see your point. I was only on my phone and couldn't really do much research on it-9800's arent that common anymore and I didn't know if it was much better than gt 240 or gts 250. I really don't need a $150 video card. The 'newest' game I have is BF2 (the only game I occasionally play)...

I have a core 2 duo and 2x2 gigs DDR2 RAM and added a monitor so I needed another pci-e x16 bus for a second video card. Didn't want to upgrade the whole system so $140 for new mobo and vid card is a lot cheaper than a whole new system. I know not everyone will be in the same boat but I...

found a 512mb 9800gt for $55. I know it's outdated but is it more powerful than a gt 240?
