My friend brought over an old computer that we were going to try and set up as an mp3 jukebox. It ran ok considering it has Windows ME installed on it. I threw in an extra stick of sdram I had laying around and booted it a few times to make sure there were no problems and everything was fine...

My wife and I recently moved, and since it will be a week before my isp will have my dsl ready, I've had to use dial up. I installed a modem, powered on, and found that my pci video card that I use for my second monitor had quit working. I shut down, removed the modem, restarted, and had the...

Hi, I was hoping someone out there could point me in the right direction for a few programs I'm looking for. I prefer open source, but I'm mainly looking for freeware, because I'm cheap like that. :D First, does anyone know of a good wav splitting program that will read cue sheets from...

Does anyone know where I can buy rubber tubing with really thin walls? Like the kind they use on cheap rounded cables. I used to have a link to some, but I've lost it over time.

Does anyone know of a decent batch image processing program that will allow me to load a folder with sub-directories, convert the images to grayscale and output to a folder while keeping the directory structure? I've tried Batch It! 4, but it keeps crashing on me if I do more than 10 or so...

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I wasn't sure if it should go in General Hardware or here. My friend finally talked me into trying linux, so we set up a dual boot XP/FC2. So far it's great, but I have one big problem with it. I have a NF7-S with a samsung 120gig sata drive...

Let me say that this is my first venture into any type of networking, so please bear with me... Anyway, I bought a router, brought it home, and I can't get it to work. I tried both the install disc that came with it and setting it up following the manual installation directions that were...

I'm getting ready to replace the dying NB fan on my NF7-S with one of the copper dealies from vantec, and wanted to know if lapping my northbridge is an absolute must. I plan on using Arctic Alumina, and I only overclock a little (I usually increase the FSB from 166 to 181 or so). I've seen...

I ordered a few sets of these hard drive mounting kits and after using them, I've noticed that my hard drives seem to be vibrating. Is this a common thing with these, or did I get my 99 cents worth?

When I open up my task manager, it shows two instances of kpf4gui.exe running. One is listed as system, and one as my user account. Is this normal? Thanks

I just reinstalled XP and have noticed some really strange behavior. When I close a program, still shows the process running in the task manager. I've tried ending the process within task manager, but it doesn't seem to do anything. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but it...

I just got a 17 inch crt given to me to replace my 15 inch. Problem is, there seems to be some type of film on the screen that is causing a rainbow effect in certain areas. I've been told that something got on there that messed up the anti-glare coating. Does anyone know a way to clean the...

Does anyone have a recommendation as to what drive I sould purchase? I'm looking for a 120 gig, sata drive that is relatively quiet. I could sacrifice a little noise if it would give me a major performance increase. I plan on using the drive for media editing and storage. Thanks Terry

I was wondering if someone could give me a hand with something. As you're looking at the board with the I/O ports facing you, there are three pins with a jumper behind the USB ports. My daughter pulled the jumper off, and I'm not sure which two pins to short. I looked in the manual, but I...
