I am looking to pick up a used 1.3Ghz Ibook for music scoring/sequencing of external synths and other random school work/web browsing. Will most likely be using Finale and Logic, though it is doubtful that I will be using soft synths a lot. My biggest question is if I will get a lot of latency...

I pretty much got everything to work on my system with gentoo. Nforce 2 sound, ati drivers etc, and I am fairly happy with it. But one thing I miss from windows is the Nforce equalizer. Does linux have any equalizer programs that work with ALSA?

All I honestly want to see, is starcraft, with the warcraft III editor. I love how you can just make new units and not have to change existing ones like you have to do in starcraft. It would make custom maps a lot more in depth, especially the rp/rpg maps.

My question is, how would I make a script that lets me edit data that is all ready in the tables. The script below is basically a guest book script that I edited into a script where it lets me add cards (I am going to try to start an online card selling business) to the db. <? $assume =...

Err, sorry, I meant MrtRate. Thanks for the links, I downloaded the .dll. I do have quicken installed, so I will reinstall that and see if it works.

I recently built a computer for my mother, which after rma'ing a few parts worked well. It ran for about 2 weeks without crashing, and now all of the sudden, the Service Control Manager fails, specifically the mtRate services fails to start. It says the system cannot find the specified file...

Does linux support HyperThreading? I was thinking about building an intel system, and I wanted to dual boot with windows and gentoo.

Thanks for the responses. I'll go with the AGP model of the 6600GT. ~$30 more for it seems to be worth it.

I have been considering buying a 5700 OC recently, mainly for the fact that Nvidia's linux support is a lot better than ATI's. I plan on having a dual boot to windows so I can play the Battlefield series games (among other things of course). Although I really want to be able to set up linux...

Like the thread title says, is this motherboard ever coming out?

I believe mine was a Trident 2 Meg (Is it even 2 meg? I think thats what Win95 said it was) ISA card from my 486dx2 system.

Fixed.

I usually have my monitor (Viewsonic PS790) set at 1280x1024@85Hz. It has been working at that refresh rate ever since I have started using this monitor. Now that I have another person using this computer, almost half of the time the refresh rate goes to 60hz. Most of the time I can set it...

And update: I have switched out my video and ram now, and tried knoppix. I still get lock ups, all though when I tried my 9500 pro from a different system, it was about 3 and a half hours before I got a lock up. I am out of ideas. I owned myself and ordered a motherboard that I can only get a...

I recently bought a Biostar M7NCD for a family computer(read as budget computer). I've had nothing but problems since I have installed the parts. I have swapped out ram, HDD, and the video card, and I still get hard locks after an hour and a half, or about. Even in knoppix I get hard locks...

Well I removed the chipset and ati drivers and reinstalled them. I let it run all night, and it didn't lock up, but I got another ati2mtag error, and I have the newest catalyst installed from ati's site. Could the video card be bad? Edit: I reinstalled windows, and thought I fixed the...

Ran the WD Diagnostics, it passed the extended test. In the event manager I have about 9 errors. Service Control Manager seems to be messing up the most. I have an ati2mtag error as well. I think I might unistall my chipset/lan/usb/agp/video card drivers and get the most current. Is there...

Well I started to run Prime95 just for some extra testing, and I get about an hour and a half into it, and this thing pops up and says "Hiding your inactive notification icons.." and immediately it locks up. That might have nothing to do with it though. I am using a HDD from 1998, a 5400(If...

I ran memtest86 6 times, it passed all tests with no errors. My voltages are: VCore: 1.57 VTT: 1.44 +3.3V: 3.25 +5V: 4.92 +12V: 11.58 -12V: -12.44 5VSB: 4.82 VBAT: 3.07

Its not overheating, the proc is ~36 idle and ~42 load. The motherboard temp is around 25 at all times. I am starting to think it is bad ram. What program do you recommend to test the ram?

I installed windows xp pro last night. Installation went fine, installation of the drivers went fine, though I got a warning from the ac97 realtek sound drivers, saying that this isn't a window logo certified driver. About every two hours, no matter what I am doing, be it playing a game or...

So it was a bad hdd unfortunately. 6 gigs for the win.

Yes, and I can get into the bios.

Did, still hangs. Damn :(

I recently put together a computer for my mother. I install all the hardware I need, turn it on, and it powers on fine. It displays the bios name version etc, then goes to Main Processor : AMD Sempron 2400+ Memory testing : 262144k OK Memory Frequency For DDR333 Detecting IDE drives ...

I am planning on building a game server just for lans. Dual p3 1ghz is the processor I am looking at. Any recommendations on the board I should get?

I plan on getting dual 2.8 Xeons in the somewhat near future, and I need some reccomendations on a good mobo. I would like to have one that atleast has AGP 4x, 8x would be better. Edit: Was looking at this http://usa.asus.com/prog/spec.asp?m=NCCH-DL&langs=09# but it doesn't list what the agp...

Nividia it is then. Now the question is, which Nvidia card should I get? Does it support everything up to the 6800?

I what to build a dedicated linux computer, but I am having problems selecting a video card. Could anyone provide any information on which card I should get?

Getting an A64 3400+ with the 1Meg L2 cache. Any recommendations on a good mobo for it?

Can anyone tell me what type of drill bits I should use to install 2 120MM window fans and 1 120MM blow hole?
