    Anyone here root samsung fascinate after 2.2

    I don’t have any hands on with that specific Samsung phone but usually when I see people having a problem with OCR it’s because they didn’t disable their antivirus before downloading it. That said I would suggest a trip to the XDA dev sub forum for your specific phone and...

    GearXS Computer Sale

    I don’t see it mentioned in the OP but I see free shipping as well. Unfortunately I don’t have time to background check the seller or what they define as “refurbished”. I also noticed that the ones I looked at seemed to all be OOS.

    Win7 64 is excruciatingly slow. (New upgr. from XP 32.)

    The reformat was done as part of the Win7 install if I understood his OP and replies correctly. And OP I know you seem concerned with having to do a Win7 reinstall like it is going to be some crazy ordeal but it really isn’t that bad. And yes I am aware you have an upgrade copy just...

    Win7 64 is excruciatingly slow. (New upgr. from XP 32.)

    Since something clearly went wrong during the install I am not even sure you are going to be able to fix it. So if you don’t just give up on 7 and reinstall XP. When you do the next 7 install pull out 2 of your 1gig DIMMs. Some people believe this was just a Vista pre SP1 issue but it’s not...

    NBC Employee Fired Over Leaked Video

    You would think they would care more about how out of touch they are with current events. All this money they spend, not to mention the internet and they are still just as clueless today.

    Goofy Wikipedia 10th Anniversary Party Invention

    What will you do with your Sandy Bridge board?

    Don’t you think this question is a bit premature? Not enough people panicking in other threads for you? Your pole options leave much to be desired and therefore don’t get a vote. A sensible, wait for all the info to see if my board is for sure part of the recall and then arrange...

    Pre-wired Home Network--not working please help!

    Well since you say you get intermittent connection I assume you have a combo modem-router. So connecting to any port should then share with the others. If it were just a modem then this would be a problem and you would need a router between the modem and the prewired home network. But you also...

    Anonymous DDoS Swoop Results in Five Arrests

    I guess that is a reference to the girl who ran down a family member over a facebook fight. And well the way I look at it she worked alone. These guys conspired to commit mass DDoS. So I expect the number of charges they face are far greater.

    Very Strange Firefox issue on Hardforum.

    Why not just block the offending redirect that keeps getting injected in the forum code with no script or add the offending URL to you ad block list? You don’t need to go to extremes like removing hardforum from your white list and such.

    AMD's Bulldozer and Bobcat Processors Preview @ [H]

    Ok so AMD managed to find a task where they can get bulldozer to have the same core for core performance as the i7 950. But what they aren’t telling us is what the task was or what the rest of the system specs were. Basically all this tells me is on its best day eating food selected...

    XFX 5770 Problems!!!

    This poor guy? I feel bad for the people at XFX. Yes you’re right I have been lucky enough to not have to deal with XFX on a warranty since I have no issues with an XFX card. However that doesn’t mean I don’t know how RMA’s work or the details of the XFX RMA process. These are things I...

    XFX 5770 Problems!!!

    Funny, I have 2 XFX 5770 in my house right now. Both work without issue and have been for a few months. You find something online and then insist to the company that it’s a fact. I don’t blame them for not wanting to deal with you. I could find websites online that say we never...

    Customer Accuses Dell of Concealing Evidence

    The topic has been beat to death around here. The bad caps were like a plague spreading across the entire electronics industry. So until dell is found guilty of intentionally deceiving it’s customers I have to feel sorry for them. For me Dell has always been great to deal with when it comes to...

    Is it really necessary to spend $400+?

    For those saying they get years of use out of a high end card. For that to be the case the card would have to have been overkill for the resolution you’re running at. Now due to new features being added to cards all the time I don’t think this is a great way to go. This is...

    HIS Radeon HD5670 vcard and 3 monitors?

    Sounds to me like the DVI port you are trying to use is shared with the HDMI port. On the higher end cards it would just be a matter of using the other DVI port. However on the lower end card like your 5670 they don’t usually seem to have two DVI ports. But yeah you’re going to...

    Suggest an upgrade to my ol' Dell

    Part of your problem may have been due to the turbo cache video card sharing your system ram. The other thing you said that caught my eye was when you said you dread reinstalling vista cause it took you so long to get it the way you like it. Now I guess you could just be referring to...

    Seasonic X750 Owners- Temperature?

    OP as was said the PSU you have now uses the case as a heat sink your old PSU didn’t and that’s why the case felt cool. The PSU is working as intended, if your case however needs the PSU exhaust to stay cool then you got a problem but it’s not with the PSU. Rather it’s a problem with the airflow...

    Fried my card?

    What kind of thermal paste are you using? Are you 100% sure you didn’t get any of the old or new TIM on something other than the core? It’s also possible you knocked a component off the board while changing the heat sink. Now before you get excited let me explain. I have seen...

    GFX problem or something else?

    No, and it seems you may be more interested in being difficult then getting answers to your problem. Not that I think anyone really needs to see your screen shot to know what video corruption looks like. What OS are you running? The screen shot may have helped with this. How exactly did...

    Help Needed: i7 running at 96 Mhz, extremely slow

    Sorry I wasn’t suggesting that your issue couldn’t be due to the CPU overheating and causing it to throttle down. It’s just that I feel I have to ignore the CPU speed you reported since it is so far out of spec. As far as my HDD comment. I am basically assuming you’re...

    Help Needed: i7 running at 96 Mhz, extremely slow

    I basically have to agree with Ghost. Thermal throttling doesn’t at all explain this situation and no way your CPU could really be running at 96Mhz. Almost sounds like your reading core temp of 96 and taking that to be core speed or something. Your comment about the combination of...
