I'm having the problem that my desktop just wont start up, I log on into Windows as I do any day, the start bar flashes and then goes away and no desktop icons appear, I can still run everything and everything seems to be intact but I have to do it through the task manager and using my browser...

Yesterday I tried to play some audio files and I got nothing, after a reboot I still have no sound. I checked to make sure everything was on (volume up, mute off) but I still am getting no sound. I just now reinstalled drivers on my audio card, but I still have no sound. I tried swapping out...

My brother has a Creative Zen Jukebox, and is looking for something that does what the iTrip does. I did a quick search and I found some stuff, but I would like to know the what the educated community thinks before I make a purchase. Thanks.

I know it was a great game in all... but wtf? http://movies.go.com/moviesdynamic/movies/movie?id=688725

For the last few days I haven't been able to use a browser on my main computer. I haven't done anything since activating HL2, and now I can't see any sites at all, but I still can get on AIM or other online programs. Oddly though, yesterday I was able to reach some sites (not hardocp) but today...

Haven't heard news on this in a while, being that I have a 3000+ (64), I was wondering if I should upgrade to SP2. Is it still a no-go, or did I miss the ok?

Whenever I bump up my fsb to 205-215 it boots into windows fine (216+ won't boot into windows), but soon after loading up something intense it freezes, then restarts giving me a message that my graphics card has caused the problem. Any idea's on what the problem is?

For some reason whenever I put in headphones to my sound card (Audigy ES) I only get sound out of the right ear. Games, music, anything. I reinstalled drivers but I got nothing. Odd thing is, is that when I plug in speakers it works fine. Any suggestions?

This is a little heads up to those of you who intend on getting a PNY 6800 Ultra. Everything worked great except for one thing out of the box. And that was that when standing upright the card would make an odd (and loud) clicking noise. This was only happening while it was upright, and would be...

I just picked mine up (bought it two months ago....), but now you can place orders for it online, and if your lucky your local CompUSA may have one. Linky: http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=313398&pfp=SEARCH

I've been running my A64 3000+ for a few weeks now and it's been running really, really hot. Mid 50's idle, and sometimes hitting 75 (where the beep goes off) during gaming. So I decided I need to change something, I booted into BIOS and lowered the multiplier to 9 and changed the multiplier to...

I'm installing the MCX64-V in my Abit KV8-Pro and I'm having quite a bit of difficulty getting the screws all the way through and locked into the backplate. Any suggestions on ways to put it in, or should I just go and buy a longer screw?

I'm thinking about getting a HyperX PC4000 512mb stick up from BestBuy, its only $120 there. Anybody have an opinion on how this RAM preforms?

Right now I'm looking to start building a new rig. I'm almost 100% I'll be going with the A64 3000+ and a ABIT KV8Pro. I'm searching for some good (atleast semi) low latency RAM that can reach higher fsb's when overclocking. I would like to have 512 megs and spend at max $160. Any suggestions?

Is there any info on the low end 939's (2800+, 3000+, ect...)? Since you can but the higher end ones right now from Newegg I assume that the lower end pieces will be coming soon. Any news?

How do I know if I can fold under my ISP? Tehy already don't like me since I had an http server going and that was against my TOS, and I really don't want to switch providers. Any ideas?

I'm going to build a computer for a friend and he's on a tight budget. So my question is, is this a case worth buying? Any gripes with it? Problems with cooling? Crappy PSU? Thanks.

AMD newbie here, but I'm thinking about making a switch to the A64. From what I read overclocking an A64 is rather limited and that AGP/PCI mhz can limit total overclock (though you can't directly compare AMD to Intel in terms of mhz), so my question is, are there any boards with solid AGP/PCI...

I'm looking to buy a good set of headphones, and I'm willing to pay in the whereabouts of $100 dolars. Obviously the cheaper, the better, but I'm just looking for the best price/performance I can get.

I was looking to get a new headset and wireless would be real nice (I'm on Skype alot so it would be nice to be able to walk around with my headset.) Any recomendations for a good wireless or bluetooth headset? And I'm gonna say ~$100 is my budget and I dont need Sennheiser quality.

I'm looking to make a cheap wireless network, I have 3 wired computers now but I want too add a fourth in my basement to run linux. Would this be possible? If so, can you recomend wireless cards/routers? Thanks in advance :)

Since newegg no longer carries the Mushkin Level 2 Black, whats the best ovcerclocking memory? The Kingston HyperX seems the best since it runs at 2-2-2 but I'm afraid it wont be able to reach high P4 fsbs. Any suggestions?

I'm tired of seeing this so I just want to clear this little bit up... The Inquirer is a hardware news site, known for posting rumors and facts that should be taken with a grain of salt. The Enquirer is the supermarket tabloid which has outrageous stories of bigfoor attacking campers and...

I'm building soon and right now I'm on the topic of sound. I listen to some music, watch movies, and do some heavy gaming but most of the time with headphones so I only want to spend a small amount of money on sound. And also I have 0 knowledge of sound so correct me if my ideas are wrong...

Where the best place I can get boot disks?

I was looking around, and I think I'm going to go with a 5900nu. The only thing is, I don't know where to buy one. ENPC.com has it for only $189, but they have a 5.5 ResellerRating. So if anyone has some suggestions, please post.
