Do any video cards support 3 monitors? I already have an 8800GT hooked up to 2 monitors and want to hook up an LCD TV to my computer. I got a 9800GT but I'm out of PCI Express x16 slots so I need to figure out another strategy. I want to be able to play 1080p movies from my computer.

Does anybody know how to override the TONER EMPTY error message on a Brother HL-5170DN laser printer? It claims my toner is empty when I know for a fact its not. I tried taking the cartridge out and shaking it lightly to distribute the toner, but that didn't work.

I'm building a new system (http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1253283) and want to have RAID 5 on it. Is the "intel matrix storage" raid real or just software raid? The motherboard on my last system died, so I'm skeptical of using a motherboard specific raid implementation. Can anyone...

The motherboard on my current rig died, so I'm going to build myself a new quad one. I wanted to get some feedback before ordering. I'm planning to use it for programming, watching movies, playing a couple games (not much tho), maybe some graphics stuff... and just general computing. 1...

I'm getting two dell 2407WFP monitors and need to get a video card which supports them. They have 1920x1200 resolution, and DVI/VGA connections. I run linux, so I'd nVidia cards tend to be better supported than ATI. Does anyone know of any cheap, but good video cards that have dual DVI outputs...

I want to buy a scanner... but I want it to be thin (like the Cannon LiDE scanners). The LiDE 60 is about $30 more expensive than the LiDE 25 and the only difference is that it has USB 2.0 hi-speed. I imagine that these scanners are more limited by the speed that the actual sensor moves rather...

My MS Intellimouse Optical started clicking twice for every time I click. Will Microsoft replace it? Its like 4 years old. I remember my friends saying they replaced their mouse when it was defective, but on their site it seems like they only offer free support for x days (i can't find the page...

I have a text database which I'm trying to parse. Each entry has about 20 different fields, some of them containing words and some not. In order to parse it, I was going to use the split() function to split it at every field "name" so the data for each entry would be an element of an array. Some...

Anyone know where to get good deals on graphing calculators? I need a ti-89 for a class next semester but they're $150 or so...

My computer has been locking up when I try to install Gentoo linux. Whenever i try to build xfree or kde it freezes during it. Could it be because i have a bad PSU? These are the voltage readings from the bios: VCC Voltage (+2.5V): 2.65 V I/O Voltage (+3.3V): 3.28 V +5 V: 5.08 V +12...

Has anyone gotten their Abit NF7 working with Linux? What distro do you use? The Mandrake installer freezes every time i try to install it, and I can't get hte network controller working on Redhat. ahhhh

I have Red Hat linux 9 and I just changed the monitor on my computer. This one doesn't support the resolution or refresh rate or something that hte other had, so it says out of scan range as soon as i enter the OS. How can I change the resolution when it does that right away?

I just got a 2400+ XP mobile chip and my Abit NF7 isn't detecting it. In the bios it just says unknown processor and sets the FSB to 100 and multiplier to 6x. When i try to change those settings it just doesn't work. What is the fsb and multiplier supposed to be at for it? how can i fix this?

Do we have to do any mods on the 2400+ Athlon XP Mobile to overclock it? I have one coming in the mail in a few days :P

What do you guys think of this system? I'm probably going to run Linux on it and use it as a server and stuff... and just play around with it. I may overclock it too... since I hear that chip overclocks really well. What HSF should I get for it? Also tell me if I'm forgetting anything... or...

What exactly are the mobile athlon xp's? Are they built for laptops? If so... how does their performance at regular clock speed compare to an Athlon XP Throroughbred or Barton at the same one? Also, how does it compare to the mobile 2400+ in terms of overclocking?... and once overclocked how...

Hey... i currently have an IBM T40, but I want to build a desktop as well at school. I'm trying to make it as cheap as possible... but still good and expandable. I'm thinking about getting a 2400+ thoroughbred and i'm not sure what motherboard to get... maybe an epox, abit, or asus - what are...

I got a Sony Trinitron CRT model number HMD-A200 for free the other day, but it doesn't work. The person who I got it from said he heard a click when he was using it and then the screen went blank and it hasn't worked since. The monitor turns on it just doesn't display anything. My laptop can...

Does anyone know how to output to a TV on an IBM T40? The only type of video out connection is for a external monitor - are there adapters that can allow you to plug that into a TV?
