Yesterday I received my 2006 Postseason Invoice for Detroit Tigers playoff tickets, and they're quite expensive, even for a team that has been among the worst in the past few seasons. The damage is something to the tune of $2,455, and this is an experience (granted they make it) that I can't...

Finally got around to cleaning out my cellphone collection. I've got four used phones that I'm looking to get rid of, 3 of which are Verizon branded and the other Nextel. All phones are in working condition. What you see in the pictures is what you'll receive should you want to purchase...

So, I'm into another semester of C++ programming and decided that I should start learning how to use Visual Studio. My question is, I'm still feeling my way around VS.net and I can't for the life of my figure out how to tell the software not to close my win32 console window after it runs my...

I'm a big-time CS player and I'd like to set Refresh Rate Overrides to 100hz when using 1024x768. Windows claims that it can only do 85hz "safely" at that resolution. What will/can I be hurting if I push it to 100hz? Thanks in advance. Curt

Ok, so October 2nd rolls around and I realize that I've put together enough money to build myself a nice new gaming machine. So I did exactly that, I visit newegg, part & purchase my dream machine. On October 5th I realized that my 19" CRT wasn't going to cut it anymore so it was time to...

I've decided to part and part with the gaming machine that I put together in early October when I was still playing WoW pretty hardcore. Now that it's ruined my semester and I've given my account away, this is too much machine for the [H] browsing that I do. None of these items have been...

I want to GIVE my account away. It sickens me to think about giving this away w/ the 40+ days that I've put into my characters, but it has to be done. I don't care how much I could sell it for on ebay, it's to the point where I need to get it out of my hands so I'll stop playing. Anyhow...

Adapter in upper right-hand corner. My uncle just called asking whether or not he has to put power to the ATI x700 he just got. It has that goofy adapter on the end. So what the heck is that? Thx. Curt

I've finally given in to the idea of spending some money to put together a decent gaming machine (My iMac just isn't cutting it in WoW :)) I've finalized a system which will fit my needs, but I still want to make sure it passes the [H] test. I've also got a few questions to throw in the mix...

Well I think my dads laptop finally bit it. It's an old Presario 700 that he does nothing but surf the web with. Today is the first time I noticed anything wrong with it, it seems as if the display gave way somewhere. I can see the desktop, etc..but it's very very dark, it's as if the...

I've been around the forums for a while, but just recently got into trading and selling. Since I don't have any credibility, I know that its usually good to ship an item before payment, until I can build up my positive heat. Here's where my question arises, when I ship first, should the other...

I've been looking to part with some ram that I have laying around my place, but I'm reluctant to post them due to my ignorance on the hardware. I'm wondering, what specs do you guys look for/at when you're buying ram and what programs or how can I find these specs out? Thanks in advance. Curt

Took the Laptop to Ebay, Closing thread. Laptop: I bought the machine on January 4th, 2005 and haven't used it a great deal since. It was one of those spur-of-the-moment buys, where I played with a Co-Workers PB and knew I just HAD to have one. Since purchasing, the...

So, today I go out and get two Viewsonic A91f+ 19'" CRT's and I have a 6800 gt. I set the monitors up in Dualview Mode and it seems that my Refresh Rate Overrides don't work in this setting. If I set the monitors up in Span mode, they seem to work fine. In short, I'm a counterstrike player...

Just set up dual booting between two hd's on my machine. I'm trying to get the hang of Xandros, the file system and how to install programs, but as of now, I've been stumped. I've been trying to install gaim and firefox for the past two hours. Then I get some error about GTK headers, so I...

I just transfered all of my equipment onto my A7N8X-E Deluxe and I've noticed some pretty severe changes in the temp of my processor, compared to the temp it ran at in the Shuttle. It's running at, give or take, 49/50/51 deg cel idle and as high as 53 when under load. Should I be worried? I...

Just picked this mobo up the other day and have yet to be able to get any video to work on it. I can turn it all on and hear everything running, but for some reason I can't get any video to work. I've tried my ti4200(AGP) and my 6800 GT(AGP), resetting the cmos and still nothing. Any ideas...

Is there anyway to get motherboard monitor to display my video card temps? In the new nvidia drivers, theres a tab that shows the core temp of the card. Can I set mbm to detect and display this as well? Thanks in advance. Curt

I've been trying to get my Far Cry looking as good as most of yours, but for some reason my water looks like hell... I'm putting all of the settings on very high and still looks like this: BTW, I'm using the 61.77 drivers. Any thoughts?

I've got a $2000 budget to put towards a notebook. I've been a big fan of the IBM t40 notebooks, until I came across the Sager notebooks where I can get ALOT more for the same price. I'm looking for pros/cons towards each as well as opinions. I'm torn between the M/p4.

I'm looking for a new picture host that allows outside linking, hoping to find one that's free, now that Imagestation doesn't allow linking. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance guys. Curt

OK, maybe I'm just overlooking it, but for some reason I can't figure out how to uninstall some of these powertoys for XP, specifically the Alt-Tab mod. I'd like to get rid of it because it now crashes my system whenever I try to alt-tab. Plz help the rookie out. Curt edit: Oh WOW...
