    Improving my signal

    I have a Linksys 54G in the upstairs office where our cable comes in. It works great for the upstairs bedrooms, but we have our Xbox 360 downstairs. The signal is spotty down there, often going in and out, and now streaming mp3s very poorly. I'm looking into boosting this, as cheaply as...

    FREE - A Pair of VisionStar Contact Lenses -

    Harder than my acuvue 2s. I still prefer those. Overall these are fine, though. Crystal clear, easy, and I've had them in two weeks with no problem. Yes, I'm a pusher, usually 3 months or so.

    Looking for a quiet PSU

    I went through the sticky above (very useful), but wanted some feedback. I like the FSP530-60GNA, seems to get some great reviews, but I can't find any comment on its noise. The PSU will be in my bedroom, and I'd like one as quiet as possible around the $100 range. I probably only need...

    Is this my motherboard

    I'm running a fairly old PC. Gigabyte 7-DX motherboard AMD 1.4 Radeon 9800 512MB Crucial RAM 2 Western digital HD XP Pro Sorry I am not more specific with the other components, but I don't really think it's the problem. Well, my computer is doing one of three things: 1) I turn...

    PF Usage bursts out of control

    It's disabled now. Considering how wonderfully fast "fast searching" is (sarcasm) I hate to see what happens now. I search once a week, perhaps, infrequent enough that I can deal but frequent enough that I'm peeved. Shouldn't cisvc.exe been killing cidaemon long before this happens...

    PF Usage bursts out of control

    Genius. Should have known I could do that. Thanks.

    PF Usage bursts out of control

    Starting this morning my OS seems out of control. Every few minutes or so my PF Usage will shoot from 148MB to 1.08GB and hold steady for a few minutes. The Commit Charge will also shoot from 151M to 1024M. Understandably my PC is rendered unusable, but even after it is very sluggish...

    Webcams (I know, I know)

    I know these things are only good for college girls. Happens to be why I want it, though. I just had to move away from my girlfriend, and figure this will make the time between weekends go quicker. Hard to find a decent one, though. Anyone have any suggestions? She already has a...

    USB vs PCI wireless adapter

    I'm making the plunge to wireless now, since my laptop is already on it. That, and the PC will be about 30 feet from the router, in a different room, with a hallway between, and I don't feel like running that much cable across a ceiling. The roommates aren't feeling that idea... My...

    Huge clearence on Playstation and xbox games at Circuit city: $4.99 each

    The employee I just spoke with swore they hadn't received any shipments of old games, nor would they be getting any more in. He didn't know about the sale, though, so I'm uncertain if he was entirely correct. He may have been outside of his department.

    Huge clearence on Playstation and xbox games at Circuit city: $4.99 each

    I went to the local BB today to pick some up, hoping to get it pricematched on Sunday. Man, even they had few of these. I'd kill for NBA Street or Viewtiful Joe, but they're nowhere to be found. No to try bribing CC employees to pick one of those up for me and pay them $10 for them...

    Microsoft Mouse Exchange?

    Not a hot deal, only this was the place I'd seen it. I was unaware MSFT openly advertised it, though I guess that wasn't very forward-thinking of me. I appreciate the help. The trusty mouse is having issues, but it might simply be the USB port. I'll do testing tomorrow, but if it's dead...

    Question: Places that Pricematch?

    Since it's clearance they'll likely try to get away without doing it. They don't word against it, but they might call it a "special promotion."

    Microsoft Mouse Exchange?

    A few months back someone posted a fax number here that you can send your mouse information to in case it malfunctions. Well, mine has malfunctioned. Anyone remember the specifics on that? Eh, I'll probably go buy a newer one.

    Huge clearence on Playstation and xbox games at Circuit city: $4.99 each

    Only the Universal Studios game was there when I went today. I wish I had seen this sooner, I just bought my Gamecube and would kill for Viewtiful Joe, Timesplitters or Mario Party under $10. I was trying to find someone to ask about it, but none of the workers were willing to make eye...
