Well...seems the creative issues regarding driver support and hardware recognition have gotten me. I've installed a AE-5 in my rig and it only gets recognized about 50% of the time. Seems there were a lot of issues with this in the Z card line, and from what I've read they've made it over to...

Hello all! I’m currently in the market for a level 2 switch that is fully managed (not totally sure I’d need a level 3 switch at this point, all my vlans are routed through my pfSense box), and has a few other requirements. 48 Port Gigabit Switch Requirements: 1. Quiet - Fans are ok, but...

I'm looking for some sort of small/portable/half height enclosed server cabinet I can put in my home office. I'm going to have something like 80 drops scattered throughout our new house we're building, regarding network and security, so I was thinking of going with something like this...

We're building a new home, and I'm working with the low voltage guys our builder uses on Cat6/RG6 in the house. I'm debating on how many Cat6 drops to have in the house. My question surrounds the number of lines ran to where I'm putting RG6. All of it is going to terminate back to my network...

I have a new position that has opened up in my office, that we're gathering equipment for. I'd like the employee to have two monitors, that they can work from. The ONLY thing they would be doing, is working with spreadsheets, web browsing, and general MS Office type duties. I was...

Seems like to get any decent specs on a laptop you have to start in the $600 plus category. Any of the Intel I-series anyway. So what about a laptop from LAST year (or an earlier release that was in the $600 plus category) that's a really good value now? Suggestions?

Motorola SB 6141 vs 6121 vs 6180? Seems like the 6141 & 6180 are different ( 8 down/4 up) than the 6121 (4 down/4 Up). Real world differences? Why the seperate models? Which is better?

We found a builder spec home we like and before we move in I'd like to setup a wired network throughout the home. Cat5e or Cat6? Switch? Types? Consider me an idiot. I'd like to have 10 drops throughout the home, plus wireless. I THINK I'm going to have it all run throughout the house to the...

This is driving me crazy. I have an Alienware M11x, and I can't for the life of me connect to minecraft.net on this machine from any internet connection at all when trying to run the game. I download the .exe, and when I try to login, I get that it can't connect. What's more, I can't even...

I just recently changed out my video card to a GTX 580. In minecraft lately, after about 10 minutes or so of play....the game will slow to a crawl of 1-2 fps. The only way I can get it to stop, is to completely exit out of the game, and restart it. Then after I've played for 10 or so...

I recently replaced my system drive (Intel X-25M 80GB) with a new Crucial M4 256GB. For some odd reason, my boot time has substantially increased. Any ideas? Thoughts?

My system until recently was rock solid stable running anything I threw at it. I changed out the video card, and began getting random BSOD's during any gaming. I swapped out an ATI HD 5770 for a MSI 580GTX Xtreme. I swapped out the hard drive and started over fresh with all new...
