    Looking for power cable for Mad Dog 550Watt SurePower

    I would love to do that, but the company Mad Dog Multimedia no longer exists in any fashion that I can find. Not sure why they're gone but it probably has to do with the horrible customer service and shoddy products.

    Looking for power cable for Mad Dog 550Watt SurePower

    Does anyone know if there are any currently existing companies that use the same cable hardware as the Mad Dog SurePower 550? Or if there is any place that has some of these cables available? In case you're wondering the power supply uses detachable cables so you can customize what power leads...

    Bethesda Charging $2.50 For Horse Armor?

    Does anyone else notice that it's a really obvious plot to get us to buy the horse armor add-on? I mean I could understand getting armor if you could fight from the horse, but you can't. So instead of having a legitamate reason to need armor, Bethesda designed the AI to attack your horse at...

    new windows open top level = BAD!

    Ahh, well that's a start. I'll try that and see how it works. Maybe it'll have some affect. I'm sure it'll not matter for splash screens though. Thanks for the info mikeblas!

    new windows open top level = BAD!

    Does anyone know how to get new windows to open bottom level, or make it selectable? One of the most annoying things that I find in Windows is that not only does it take forever for a window/app to load up, but since I am inevitably off doing some other task while I wait for the app to load...

    Official Anti-Spyware info thread

    While this may seem unorthodox to many of you, actually changing your browsing and internet usage habits are the most effective method of keeping spyware off your system. Once you're infected, of course you need some software to help you remove those mal-wares, but you should not stop there...

    Copper is much better than aluminum for heat-sinking.

    Digital Optical Out to manage mode?

    Ahh... This is all very informative. Thanks guys! Does anyone know the model/brand of the cards that do the on-the-fly DD encoding? (I hope it's not Creative Labs, cuz if so you can be almost guaranteed that it's a lie; some form of trickery and marketing acrobatics.)

    VB and Access?

    I agree with Y2K SE. You can access the tables from VB.NET. All you have to do is make sure your references are set up, and you can even use the Access-specific objects. I think it would be easier overall to just use the built in Access VBA since it is tailored to understand most of the...

    Digital Optical Out to manage mode?

    I have an Audigy. What I want is to have something encode the output from the digital optical out so that my DD receiver can decode it and put the sound into the correct channels. I know that movies and some games will do this, but I was hoping that there was some 3rd party app or other...

    Digital Optical Out to manage mode?

    Anyone know of any sound card/app out there that will allow you to use the Optical/coax digital out to a decoding receiver, and have the receiver decode the data properly into the channels? I mean this for everything, not just games that are supposedly "Dolby Digital" compatible. If there's...

    Ok, how many posts did you not read? How much of the OP did you read? THEY DO PAY YOUR FARE IF YOU WIN. :rolleyes: It doesn't matter how much they offer because they know nobody will step forward. They probably know that the people complaining all have their own legal issues to worry...

    Ok BFG You've beyond lost a customer...CARD #5 DOA!!!!

    Well it looks like BFG finally can breath a sigh of relief. After 7 cards you finally go away, and they look good for trying to do the right thing even if they didn't get the chance to "fix" it. You sold the card to someone, from whom we will surely never hear from, and the magical 8th card...

    do they make clear fans?

    Try HERE for a 120MM clear fan without LED.

    do they make clear fans?

    sure you can disable the LED's on a fan. just snip the LED wire. If you want to make them switchable snip the wire in a place where you can splice a wire in to run to a switch. Just make sure you don't snip the fan wire! Oh and turn off power 1st too... ;)

    1G x 2 + 512 x 2 = ?

    Yeah i would say that in this case, the best option is to use total RAM size entirely as the factor used to decide. The speed may vary slightly depending on the setup, but the difference between 1T-2T or even 333 vs. 400 is NOTHING compared to touching the virtual/scrap disk.

    1G x 2 + 512 x 2 = ?

    Ok, so the next question is what on Earth do you need more than 2GB of RAM for anyway? This box isn't a server is it?

    1G x 2 + 512 x 2 = ?

    Am I missing something here? why does the size of the RAM dictate that it will run slower?

    alienware...a rip??

    My dad got an XPS for work that ran almost 10k. Granted, he did have a hard time figuring out how to spend all that budget, but he got close. And yes all costs were directly related to the laptop.

    User CP baby!

    I love it, but I think it's lying to me. I just don't know if I can continue a relationship with a module that tells me that my subscribed threads have replies but no views! I'm hoping that the forum admins can help us stay together by explaining how this might happen.

    So would you say that the 430 is overkill for my G5? Sounds like you're saying certain features will not work on my G5.

    Looking for good flash for <$300

    What are your suggestions on this? I have a Canon G5 with a couple of lenses and filters. I made my own green screen for fun shots, and I hope to get good enough to take some decent protrait shots of family and such. I know I have a long way to go, but I am working my way toward it slowly...

    Converting Dynamic Disks to Basic Disks without Data Loss

    Yeah it supports Dyn to Basic conversion only in the Pro version and Server version. Might as well buy a 250GB drive to swap data to for less then the cost of that software, and then you actually have something once you're done. If you're going to buy software for the sole purpose of one of it's...

    Converting Dynamic Disks to Basic Disks without Data Loss

    Yes what you say is true. There is no going back. I tried dynamic volumes ONCE, and I will never do it again. I even had a bitch of a time getting the drive reformatted to a basic volume. Yes you heard me. Even a reformat would not revert it to a basic volume. IIRC I had to use an old DOS...

    Since I have a GenMay sub I can't test this, but are you sure that the non-subscribers can see that link? It would be unfair to them to link the answer from a location they can't access.

    What Kind of Pointing Device Do You Use?

    Wow, the numbers are pretty amazing here. I expected less people to be using trackball, and certainly none to pick finger or other. It's cool that more people use Trackball than I expected. I'll never figure out the people that play games on a touchpad. :confused:

    New Blizz game

    QFT! Maybe they should just leave the legend be. WC3 was a complete miserable disappointment if you ask me. They would probably do the same thing with any sequel to SC. I am just wondering why they went back to WC (for WC3) after it was obvious that SC was the golden ticket. I played WoW...

    CoD2 Hacking and Activision's Response...

    It's hard to find a server that has admins on it. Some are admined more than others and half the time if a server is admined they're nazi whores with the rules, and people get booted for saying "damnit" or for going AFK for 5 minutes to handle real life. While ideally, human intelligence is...
