I decided to reformat today, after I botched a driver update for my GTX 260, and the fact that i has been awhile since I have reformatted. When I go to boot from my windows CD, I would recreate the partition and load the files, but when I went to load from my HDD for the first time, I would...
Google has turned up a bunch of a online stores that show pricing and everything, but all of them are temporarily out of stock. I know the t260 is out, but I don't know if I want to go that big on my next upgrade.
I am currently in the market to get a 24-26" LCD, as I am selling my two Samsung 204b's, in the fall I will have a 32" LCDTV to use as my second monitor so I want to get rid of them and just get one nice monitor until then.

I just ordered a case for my new build on monday http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112115 and I was wondering what direction I should have each of the 4 fans and which HSF to use to cool the case with the best results. I will be getting an E8400 for my CPU if that helps...
I noticed on Newegg the other day a Blue Ray/DVD/CD drive popped up for 169.99, and at first I thought wow what an awesome deal. I have a 32" Samsung LCDTV which I could easily hook up to my computer to watch movies in hi-def, but is the drive really a worthwhile purchase? I never payed...
I installed the game this morning and when i start it up i see all of the trees/grass/bushes have their edges lit up. This is with the beta drivers specifically designed for crysis performance. I played around with the in game settings and nothing seemed to get rid of the lighting around the...
Is this large amount of processes normal for a notebook like that to idle with? On my desktop i only idle at maybe 35-40, less than half of that. Do I need all of these "Thinkvantage" things running? If not, is there a way to disable them at startup?
What is that voice saying when you enter the sarcophagus? It seems to say the same things over and over again, but alas I cannot speak more than English and a little Spanish:(
My father has wanted a GPS system for years, so after agreement with my mother, we are going to get him one, the thing is, i have no clue what im doing with this little things. Can someone lead show me a few of them that are decently priced (from glancing at them on newegg, i see anywhere...
Shuttle case/mobo
HDD
Vid card
RAM
CPU
That's what I am currently considering buying. I tried making the 5200+ with the 1MB cache fit, but with that instead it pushes the price just out of my range :( The 65W 4200+ helps keep power consumption down, so its not such a bad trade off...
Yesterday morning I got up and come down to notice my 204B is turned off (which is unusual because i just let it go into powersave). I turn it back on and the screen turns grey for a few seconds, then fades to vertical color lines (which are the colors of what used to be my background). I...
Going from the computer in my sig to the following:
Shuttle SN27P2
Athlon 64 X2 4000+ Windsor (1MB cache)
Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800
eVGA 7950GT
WD 160GB SE
Are there any conflicting parts or things that you guys would want to swap out? On newegg the total price comes to roughly $1300, and...
For a long awhile I have refused to buy an LCD because of their price and slight lack of sharpness when compared to CRTs, but now that the dust has settled I think I will actually buy one, but I am not quite sure as to which I want to get. What I do know is that I love the space of...
I don't know if the mirroring is legal (IIRC it is?) so if it isn't, I'll scrap that and just post new discussion on the patch.
The new armor models look :cool: as hell, especially the pally model :D
If I were to buy a component output cable for my Gamecube (first gen which does have the proper output for it) seen here would I be able to connect that to my 7800gts vivo output cable thinger seen here and have it playable through one of my monitors?
If this doesn't work, how do I go about...
I feel like a retard, do DFI Lanparty's (S939 Nforce4, the $132 version off Newegg) need the 24 pin ATX cable instead of the 20 pin cable my Antec PSU has?
For this Christmas I asked if I could split the cost of a Dell 2001FP with my parents. I was thinking about moving my Envision 19" CRT over to my secondary position and using the LCD as my primary, since I would be looking at it most often it would ease up the stress on my eyes greatly. I also...
Well I am upgrading from the rig in my sig to one of these two, a 7800gt, and a 250gb SATAII HDD around the holiday season, but I don't know which I want to pick for my build. I figured I would list the pros and cons as to what I have noticed from me reading up on them.
Pros of the...
this article which is on the front of [H]ardOCP is what I would like to bring to the boards.
It seems that they are going to pull the same pricing as last time with the more of a budget and straightforward gaming machine. I don't mind lower prices :) The lack of HD has also been confirmed...
in the DRAM config, I states the 133, 166, 200, 216, 233 etc speeds, but are these the values the RAM always runs at or are they the dividers values for the RAM, (say if I set it to 200mhz, it would be in 1:1 with the FSB)Just curious because This could be why my CPU doesn't want to accept...
How feasible will it be for me to achieve this? I plan on putting in most of my existing parts (RAM CPU raptor) and getting a 7800gt and putting both the CPU and GPU on water. I went over to frozenCPU and did a quick calculation and got about $300 for a decent loop for them both, but I have...
It's up between either a nice Razer one (probably the Diamondback with blue LEDs), or the Logitech MX518. I'm using a Microsoft Intellimouse right now and I love it, but they don't make the model anymore. Does the Diamondback have side buttons that can be used to go back and forth on internet...
I have a Linksys wire access point (model befw121s4 v.2) and it has been running fine for a year and a half, but now when I turn it on the red diagnostic light is lit and there is an odd pattern of lights where the link/act full/col and 100 lights should be. I figured you guys are easily as...
I finally got my MSI motherboard to go along with my 3200+Venice and got Windows up and the chipset/sound/video/ethernet drivers up and all that good stuff. Then I re-downloaded steam and CS:S. I downloaded it all and fired it up, and got into a game. As soon as I joined the [H]ardgaming server...
My brother is going to college (commuting to DeVry) and he needs a laptop for when he is on campus and doing work. He wants something about middle in size and power with 1gb of memory. We stopped at Circuit City and were looking, nothing was quite what he wanted there. I fired up Newegg to...
Curious to see if anyone has rented/bought it yet, the concept of possessing people looks pretty neat but I don't wanna get it if it isn't a good game.
The last two times I removed the hsf off my cpu (well, off of the motherboard I should say, since the cpu came with it both times) the CPU has been coming with it. Did I apply too much Arctic Silver5 or do they always stick to the CPU that much? I know twisting the HSF can break the adhesive...
I bought an Abit AV8 from a friend who assured me that it was in working order and it would be fine for me. Now I had it and got my 3200+ Venice core and installed everything and used my 1gb of corsair low latency and my 6800gt and my 2 HDDs (wd raptor and 80gb SE) i had (sold the abit nf7-s...
I sold my abit nf7-s and axp2500+ today to a friend since he needed a budget system to play CS:S on. He got all of the other parts and I installed everything and cleared the CMOS but when I tries to save the CMOS the computer just shuts off. Sometimes the computer will bootfor about 5 seconds...
