I have a 2408WFP that is still under the 3 year warranty with a manufactured date of June 2008. Its starting to get solid 1 pixel wide lines down the left and right sides of the screen about 2 inches from the edges. They show up after the monitor has been off for awhile, but then will change...
Thanks for the help guys. I bugged the shit out my ISP yesterday, and today they called and said they addressed some interferance problems they noticed with the tower I was connecting to.
So far everyhing seems great. Thanks again for the help!
For the last couple days I have been plagued with random internet loss. Not a single thing was changed on the network or router before the problem. Everything has been working fine up until 2 days ago.
There doesnt seem to be any type of pattern what so ever, sometime it lasts hours without...
Thanks guys. Im pretty happy with how well it came out.
The hardest part is going to be keeping the thing clear of clutter. I already have books and papers spread out across it lol.
I've been working on it for the last week or so now. Finally doing all the renovations I've been wanting to complete for the last few years. Its pretty much done except I still have to run the speaker cables through the wall and hook that whole system up. Also clean the bottom shelf on the right...
Ok, first an foremost thanks for any help you offer. Secondly, I am looking for a wall mount for my 2408WFP.
Heres the options I want
1) Arm style, so I can pull it forward and back.
2) Landscape to portrait rotation. (Very important)
Optional, but would love
3) Ability to move the...
If anyone hasnt played the Max Payne series.
BUY THEM!
$10 for both is a STEAL! Max Payne 2 was a fantastic shooter. And it was really cutting edge at the time.
I'm very tempted to rebuy them both on steam... $5 a piece is easier then hunting through my attic for the discs.
Right, I read that part, but how do I go about creating a bootable disk so that I can install it the first time on a computer that doesnt already have an OS on it?
So what exactly is the file that you download? Is it some type of executable, or is it something I can burn to disc and boot with?
Im trying to do a clean install on a brand new system with no current OS.
It happens.
I used to work at BB and when the store got really desperate to get rid of something, they would drop it down to $5, $1, <$1, or even 1 cent.
I bought handfuls of 1 cent items while I was working there.

What you have are some of the BEST speakers ever made. I have 2 sets, one is hooked up to my laptop and the other is a spare. The sound from those little things is awesome, and the bass is very aggressive.
I just found on Newegg that the Corsair 750TX has a combo deal for $30 off with the Q6600.
That makes the PSU price even sweeter. Thanks for all the tips guys. I think im going to order tonight or tomorrow so that I can have this thing up and running by the next weekend!
Cool. Maybe I'll go with that instead. I'll order it from Amazon though. Its the same price, same rebate, except I have a prime account so free 2 day shipping.
Gah, left out the ram in the post. My Bad..

Sorry, I did forget to mention in the OP that Im putting together a new build. Most likely will include a Q6600 that will most likely be overclocked depending on how it cooperates.
Doh, i forgot to adjust the motherboard accordingly. I only really considered the SLI since there is a fantastic combo deal on the PNY cards. Both come to about $330 after rebates.

Its been a couple years since I put together a computer. I would just like it for you [H]ard Gods to double check it for me, if you would be so kind. Any other pointers or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, by 'upgrade' thats exactly what I meant. Im doing a whole new build. I havent updated my sig in 4 years anyway lol.
As for which games, I'm gonna be checking out Crysis. And I'm sure I'll be getting left 4 dead, and anything else that looks appealing in the upcoming months :P
Well its been about 3 years since I last built a computer, and I havent really kept up with the video card scene and news.
This would be for a new rig I'm going to build a new one very soon, might order parts as soon as tonight.
Basically, I would like to know what is gonna be the best...
Its only $6 off the normal 360 price, but the PC edition is $13 off.
I went ahead and preordered the 360 version anyway, who knows, it may go down even more!

I got a spare copy of Heroes Season 1 on Blu Ray. Its still factory shrink wrapped.

Trades: Blu Ray movies/boxsets. Obviously gonna need to be an even trade, so please dont offer 1 movie and get upset when I say no thanks.
Oh I'm so terribly sorry. I didnt know that lack of 2.0 support turns that player into nothing more than a paper weight. So while you go cry about missing feature, I'll just enjoy my movies.
Im gonna be honest with you. Im not even going to bother reading it all. Im just going to answer your first question.
No I did not bother to read any of those reviews. Why? Because I actually have one of these players and it works perfectly fine and never had any problems with it since I...
Agreed. For $60 you are getting a decent upscalling DVD player with the added option to play HD DVDs that just keep going down in price.
At $60, its not really an investment, so does it really matter that HD DVD is dead?
Yes, just print the coupon and take it in. I used one today, no problems.
And yes, I had an issue with printing them too at first. I just did a print screen, pasted into photoshop and printed it out. Also someone on SD made a PDF for them, you can find them here...
