What does someone actually think that Amazon ISN'T sorry?
So now, every time some computer crashes somewhere, are we suposed to have some sort of public shaming? Are we going to build a public Gallows?
I had always though that I was pretty lucky not having had the RRoD prior to now, and with my Kinect unit using an external power supply, I doubted it would be a power draw issue.
I thought it odd that the BBC story was jumping to such a rapid conclusion, but my own experience made me deide...
Ah, I wondered when the Elites were upgraded, thanx for the info.
As a side note.. those who have had repairs, do the repairs entail a GPU upgrade? or can I expect another RRoD in my future?

I have a 360 Elite, purchased Dec of 07.
We use it moderately every week for games and movies/music over Live. Never any issues. Recieved the Kinect for Christmas, and got our first RRoD on New Years Eve, it lasted about 5 minutes and was...
The motherboard tray is definately not plastic. The only plastic inside the case, are the 3 removable cable managment/fan covers and the CPU cooling fan hatch.
Even the front bezel is mostly machined aluminum.
You really have to see this case in person in order to draw realistic...
I got this case in the first shipment from Newegg. The giant box was pretty beat up upon arrival, but the case was still pristine inside, and assembly was a dream.
Corsair has definately set the benchmark for other manufacturers for the next several years. There is no other case on the...

My current hardware
Linksys BEFCMU10 ver. 2.0 Cable Modem
Linksys BEFW11S4 ver 2.0 R WAP Router
are not DOCSIS 2.0 compliant, so I will have by a new router and modem.
So, for any who may be looking...
My ISP is giving all of its broadband customers a free bandwidth upgrade to 10mb download, and 1 mb upload.
Are there any registry changes I will need to make to actually take advantage of these speeds?
Any help appreciated...

This whole issue is...
Seems the Math Co-Processor is being resurected with a new name (PPU).
Those of us that built PC's in the 80's prolly remember the old Math Co-Processor which was used for floating point calculations.

I have an air cooled system, nVidia 6800Ultra OC.
Recently I installed Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, and have had major heat issues, causing artifacting, crashes, etc. I removed the side from my PC, which took care of the heat issues.
Oblivion is the first Havoc game I've played extensively...
Cause I'm tired of the cord being in my way, and wraped around the back of my keyboard to keep it so.
My current headphones (corded) are aboiut 2 years old, and the foam ear padding is starting to tear.
I am looking to replace them, and thought a wireless set would be a good option.
I...
Does anyone know where I can pick these up?
I have been pouring over the net, and all I can find are DJ headphones which are a bit more pricey than what I need....
Any chance?
Thanks for any help...
I'm personally more concerned that the screenplay is written by someone with no notable credits.
This means that EVEN IF the screenplay is ok, he probably has absolutely no control over it, and it will get hacked to bits.
I have a BFG 6800 Ultra OC, and have never seen that error screen.
PS is a Raidmax 6100E 500w
System specs in Sig.
with additional
CDRW and DVD Rom
Also sporting 4 Cathode fans, and an ELCD screen
I tried last yer, to replace my GeForce 3, with a GeForce FX 5600... and the Geforce 3 Smoked it.
I'm not certain how the 5200 compares to the 5600, but The GeForce 3 is a damn good card. Stick with it untill you can jump to the 5600 ULTRA or 5800 and up series... Or go with an ATI 9600...
Well, the Intel MoBo has very little to offer in the way of over-clocking.
Because of my somewhat infrequent upgrade schedule, longevity is an important factor in the PC's I build. I went for a strong, durable system, and I think I achieved that fairly well.
Right on. I have ran this...
36, wife, 2 kids, mortgage, 2 car payments, etc...
I upgrade every 1 1/2 to 2 years. When I upgrade I try to build the best system I can.
I have been sitting on a GF 3 since its release, and when I built my new PC last spring/summer I sat on this same card waiting for a better vid card...
Well, I'm now running the latest and greatest of the nVidia family... So, where's Nalu.
I've scoured the nvidia site, only to be disapointed.
I've dug through every track and file of the BFG Demo CD's and seen no sign.
Where is this fishy freak hiding?
I paid big $$$$, so where is my...
I recieved my BFG 6800 Ultra OC on Tuesday (7-06) from BB. (Ordered 6-16).
Packaging was the same as yours.
All I can say is Dayuuuum!
Went from 1150 3dmark03's (GeForce 3) to a massive 12,106
My system is all stock speed, no OC.
Just installed my BFG 6800 Ultra OC... seemed to have the same problem as you.
Here is what I did....
Wait till the screen goes black....
Go outside and have a smoke....
(In other words wait for nearly 5 minutes if ya don't smoke)
Go back to Computer... which is now in VGA Mode...
