I'm trying to replace my seven year old Asus VG248QE (1080p, TN) and it hasn't been an enjoyable experience. I was initially going to go with a VA panel but after reading the issues with black smearing I settled with IPS. I've only had one experience with IPS in the past. I tried a model from...

Hey all. It's been almost five years since I had my last major PC build and I think it's time for a new one. I'm looking at a new motherboard, cpu and ram. My current computer in my signature will have things like the video card, psu, hdd reused in the new build. I also purchased a SAMSUNG 840...

So the time has come to start looking for a new monitor. I've had my Samsung SyncMaster 2232GW for almost five years now and I would like to make the jump to a 24", 16:10, 1920x1200 screen. Most of its use will be for gaming. I started looking at monitors back in April (specifically the...

I have a ton of BMP's I want to change to JPEG's. I searched and found a few different programs but I thought I would check here for some suggestions. I don't really need anything with a lot of bells and whistles, just something that's good quality, easy to use, and free.

Spec in sig. Overall everything went smoothly, easier than I expected. Everything seems to be stable so far, just finished a 20 run of LinX a while ago. I've ran numerous other sets of 5 or 10 whenever I had spare time. I'll probably get around to running Prime95 sometime. Temps seem to be...

I'll start off by saying that I haven't started ME2 yet, so no major spoilers please. :) I was just wondering if who you chose to get it on with in ME1 has any impact on the story in ME2. Something in the main storyline, or just a couple of scenes with a few dialog options? Maybe nothing at...

So I decided to flash the BIOS on my Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe the other day. Using the Asus EZ Flash utility in the BIOS I went from the original BIOS (1400 something. At work atm can't remember the exact number) to 2205. All seemed to go well untill the restart. After it came back up I was...

Specs in sig, nothing overclocked, computer had been running stable for the last year with my old BFG 8800GT OC installed. I bought an EVGA GTX 260 SSC core 216 a few days ago an I've been having some problems. I uninstalled old drivers, removed old card, ran Driver Sweeper to remove all...

I downloaded Battlefield 2 Special Forces from the EA store and I keep getting this error everytime I try to install it. I tried installing it in software mode but it did the same thing. I uninstalled all of BF2 last night and started from scratch, but it still gave me the error. EA customer...

So I had to alt-tab out of FC2 and now I can't get it to go back to full screen. It won't even maximize, the button for it is greyed out. It's probably something simple, but I can't think of it at the moment. Any ideas?

I just build my new computer yesterday (specs in my sig) and I can't seem to change the number of speakers in the options. I have the lastest drivers installed for my Prelude, and my speakers (Altec Lansing ATP4 4.1) plugged into the right places, but it isn't giving me a drop down list in...

Why did they even bother with this so called "patch"? It did nothing other than make the game worse. "Fixed an issue that caused the Multiplayer Browser to become unresponsive" Umm, no. Other than adding the "Updating Servers" message or whatever it says, it's still as laggy as before...

Is there anyway to stop windows from automatically minimizing pictures when I open them in links? It gets annoying always having to click on them to maximize.

Today at 10:00AM Pacific Time the evil EA empire pulled the plug on Westwood Studios mmorpg Earth & Beyond. After 2+ years of game play, it's over. :( E&B had an amazing community of players that were always willing to help each other out. This game had a storyline that could have ran for...

I was just wondering what people think of it. I can get it on sale for $100 CDN. So i was thinking i might pick it up. Thanks

I'm thinking about getting a digital camera and i was looking at this one. Anyone have any experience with it? I don't need the best of the best, but I don't want a low end one either. It would just be used for taking random pics. Mostly stuff to post on the net. Probably wouldn't print that...

I'll try to make this short. Windows won't detect the card. If I install drivers for it, I get artifacts on the screen and Windows locks up. I tried agp 8 and 4x, both do the same thing. I also tried turning off fast writes, that didn't help either. I've already rma'd the card. The one i...

I'm getting new hardware and was wondering if i should go sata, or just stick with a pata hard drive. The motherboard will be an Asus K8V and the HD would either be a Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 80GB sata, or a Western Digital 80GB pata. It would just be a single HD in the system. No RAID of any...

I just want some info on this board. All the reviews that i've read about this motherboard seem to be pretty good. But when i look at different forums, people seem to be having a lot of problems with it. So i was just wondering if it really is a good board, or if it's crap? I was going to...

How well do the stock heatsinks work? Maybe someone could take a pic of one? :) I would really like to see what they look like.

If I activate windows with the hardware setup that i have now, will it "complain" later when i reinstall windows with new hardware? I'll probably be getting a new MB, CPU, RAM, and HD in about a month.

Does anyone know when this motherboard will be released? I was looking at in on Asus' website and it looks like it'll be good alternative to nForce2.
