    hard drive enclosures

    I had a laptop go south and want to retrieve some files off the old hard drive. I'm looking for a cheap docking station or enclosure so that I can put the old drive into it and recover the data. Anyone have any suggestions as to a cheap drive enclosure or adapter for this purpose? I think this...

    What product to use when cleaning my laptop?

    I'd start with Dawn dish soap on a lightly saturated rag. If that doesn't make it clean and sparkly then Alcohol would be my next choice.

    Will a Pentium 2.2 M work in this Celeron M chasis laptop?

    Do you know which pentium mobiles will interface with theCeleron socket? Also, the BIOS: won't it be necesary to somehow hack the BIOS or will it just recognize the pemtium and go along it's merry way?

    Will a Pentium 2.2 M work in this Celeron M chasis laptop?

    Related question: Is there a faster Celeron M or any other faster processor that is a plug and play solution. Doesn't the BIOS have to be modified to accept a different processor? And a big second on Vista and 520 RAM being sloow. I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite on sale at BB for $390. I...

    DFI LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D PSU

    Antec Sonata has good cooling (2-120mm) with the front fan directly positioned on the drive cage. If you get the additional Smartfan you'll have zero noise. It's kind of an off color black I would say.

    ASUS P4C800dlx burn out

    Yes, electronics problems are not brand dependent. I figured out the situation with the system here. Since the system was installed in a house that was hit by lightning , there was a lot of "wild cards" to diagnosing the problems. I thought at first the PSU was not adequate because of the abrupt...

    ASUS P4C800dlx burn out

    Thanks for the post. Yes, Asus has ATI cards manufactured before a certain date as incompatible. The 9500 pro was running on this board for two years with no problems. Is this section of the motherboard Forum kinda dead? Not many views on any threads here.

    ASUS P4C800dlx burn out

    I searched but couldn't find any threads regarding bad mobos of this model. My story: two years ago I built a system for a friend using this mobo, P4 2.4C, Corsair XMS 2x 256, WD HD, Antec Sonata, Pioneer DVD & DVDRW, ATI 9500pro. The board failed. Had no power to the vid card and no power to...

    Asus P4C800-E Deluxe BIOS Issues!

    Well this is pretty timely. I am experiencing similar symptoms but I know it's not due to BIOS flashing. No video display. I have tried clearing the BIOS CMOS, swapped video cards, and tried the supplied CD. Still working on it but I feel this is a board issue probably.

    You'll need more than an ATX power supply to run an amp. Probably a battery and charger or one humoungous 12-14 v. transformer.

    stereo in a pc

    This car HU in a comp has been tried before. Can't find the thread in the car forum anymore. Bottom line is that is counter productive because of price, power, and speaker configuration. IMO it would be easier to get a good sound card and a highend speaker set. Don't let my opinion stop you, though.

    Back down to $249. Comes with the Celeron so an upgrade to the 2.4 pentium would be my fist choice. The other bits and pieces to upgrade I'd buy aftermarket (memory,OS,vidcard,add. HD). Available at Dell Small Business. BTW priced based on $100 mail in rebate.

    [Hot]ot|Deal gone wrong at TigerDirect.com

    Liquid, Would you trust these fools to sell you anything that would be good? I think you will be unhappy in the long run with any monitor you get from them. Cancel the order and have them pickup what they sent you. My 2 cents.
