I have a Radeon 290x, and my machine periodically throws a BSOD with "Thread Stuck in device driver" as the message. All the stuff I've been able to find online points to a driver issue, but this has been happening for at least the past year's worth of Radeon drivers. It doesn't happen in games...

A few weeks ago, I ordered a used 290 from a user her on HF. When it arrived, it would work (sort of), but once you started using the 3d part, it would make a high pitched whine. Then it started artifacting and going to a black screen after a little use. I contacted the seller and he asked me to...

Works fine with MS generic display driver, but as soon I the Radeon driver tries to load during the install, the screen goes black and the GPU fan goes to 100%. Any ideas? I'm running a Corsair RM850 PSU, which should be good enough for a single 290, based on what I have read. Prior to...

I'm looking for a decent headset w/mic for gaming/Teamspeak/VOIP. While I would like them to sound "good", audiophile-level fidelity is not a priority. In the past, I've used the cheaper (<$150) Sennheiser sets, and been pretty happy with them. I would like to go wireless, but I'm not sure...

Has anyone had any luck getting wireless MAC address spoofing working under Windows 7? I've tried on a couple of different systems, ones that allow you to change it in the NIC properties, and ones where you can't (used the registry edit method on those). In both cases, after making the changes...

I'm having a strange problem with my XBox live profile. I only have one profile on my 360, the one I use for XBL. I can use Netflix and download games, etc without any problem. However, when I start up a game from my game library (Puzzle Quest 2, in this case), the game will act like I'm not...

I know what I'm looking for, but I just need some help finding a game that does it... I'm looking for a space-exploration/research kind of game, but without a ton of combat. Ideally, I'd like to buy a ship, explore the galaxy, find stuff, sell stuff, upgrade my ship, maybe research things and...

I'm looking for a deal on 2 or 3 12 or 13 month Xbox Live subscription cards for my nephews that are getting xboxes for Christmas. Seems like some deals crop up from time to time, was wondering if anyone had any for less than the $40.00 that you can buy them retail. Happy Holidays!

I'm looking to replace the DVD/TV in my daughter's room with a PC and a LCD. I'd like to rip her DVD collection to a hard drive and have a fairly simple interface she can use to pick movies. I have a SFF machine that I've installed Win7 on. It's an Athlon64 4000+ with 2gb RAM and 160gb HD...

You know, I thought I knew how this worked, particularly in respect to why 32-bit Windows couldn't use more than 4gb of RAM. Turns out I was wrong. Awesome article. http://www.geoffchappell.com/viewer.htm?doc=notes/windows/license/memory.htm

A friend of mine just bought one of the HP 17.3" laptops and is having trouble finding a bag that suits her. Looking around a little (Newegg, buy.com, some Google searches), it seems like bags for >17" laptops are pretty scarce. Maybe I'm just not executing the right Google-fu. Any suggestions?

These just showed up at Newegg Anyone know anything about how the 220 stacks up? I'm assuming it's better than the GT130, but the price points are pretty low.

I'm pretty much set on buying something from newegg (been using them for years, good prices, good credit line with them). However, they aren't showing any laptops with the 260-line (Newest they have is the 130) and only a couple of units with the ATI 4000 series GPUs. I'm pretty much set to...

Plantronics Audio 90 These were on the Hot Deals forum a few months back for about 10 bucks a pair on closeout from Plantronics. I bought my wife a set and my buddy used them when he was over this weekend. He liked them so much he wants a pair, but the few places that still have them have...

This is the little keyboard that attaches to a wireless controller so you can type w/o having to use the on-screen keyboard. Used is ok as long as it's in good condition.

Here. 1299.00 is not a super-low price for this model, but it's still a lot of laptop for the money. 1gb 9800gs, 1920x1200 screen, vista home premium... I know TD isn't a favorite around here, but I thought I'd pass it along.

I just brought this home from BB for my wife. A pretty nice little laptop if you want something portable and not too slow. We got: C2D-T5750 2.0ghz 3gb 667mhz DDR2 13.3" 1280x800 screen 250gb 5400rpm HD Slot Load DVD-r/w 9-Cell Battery Intel 3100 integrated graphics Ethernet Wireless...

Seems like the current line-up is getting a little long in the tooth. Everyone else has refreshed with 9000-series NV GPU's, anyone know when Dell will follow suite? I need a new laptop, and I like the XPS setup, but I don't want to buy that far behind the curve... Some higher-end ATI-based...

I think I've finally found what I'm looking for in a gaming laptop (15.4, good 3d - 9700, decent processor), except it doesn't appear to be out just yet. The Toshiba F55-Q503 looks like just what I want at a pretty decent price (1749 list, I figure it should retail for a little less). Google is...

I'm looking for a pair of 200mb/s Powerline network adaptors/bridges. I know some of the older units didn't work as bridges, but it looks like all the new ones do. If they don't work as bridges, I don't need 'em. I need a pair to connect my shed to my house network without having to bury...

I was in BB the other day and laid hands on a Macbook Pro. I can't help but admit that I liked it. It made me feel a little dirty inside, but I liked it. I'd like to find something that's pretty much exactly like the MBP (slot loading DVD-R, thin form factor, decent 3d, good display), but that...

Newegg has them, just noticed it today: SAPPHIRE 100202SR Dual X1950PRO $415.00 Anyone heard anything about it?

I'd like to trade my BFG 7800GTX 256MB (PCIE), which works perfectly well, for a similar-grade ATI solution (Also PCIE). I'm going to move this card in to my wife's PC, and the motherboard she has doesn't like Nvidia video cards. Looking at the values in NewEgg, I'm thinking something 1950'ish...

Did anyone else notice that the new Intel C2D's were listed as available at NewEgg this morning? I went to lunch, and when I came back, they were gone from the listing. I wonder if it was a mistake, or if they have them but are holding them for the purpose of price cuts/depleting old inventory...

Looking for a rackmount 24 port (or larger, but I only need 24) patch panet, a wall mount bracket for the same (preferably a 3u or so), possibly a shelf. Also interested in 110 punch-down cat5 jacks and wallplates, I need around 20. To give you an idea on prices, I can purchase these items...

I'm looking for a good RPG to play on my Wii. I want something that DOES NOT have real-time combat. Something with turn based combat is more my speed. I'd also be interested in Eternal Darkness, if anyone has a copy they are done with. Thanks.

Whne I clicked on the MSI banner on the front page (the one about the best audio on a motherboard) the entire MSI website attempted to open inside that one banner ad space (so I hade a 1 inch wide, 5 inch long view of the MSI website). Shouldn't that pop a new window? I don't know if it makes...

Good condition, never overclocked, works perfectly. Card only (I can throw in a dvi-vga converter if you need it). Good card, plays CS:S, BF2 and most other games quite well. It's in my wife's PC and since I don't use that one at LAN parties anymore, it's just taking up space. First $140.00...

I'm looking for a small, wall-mount 19" rack for my computer room. It doesn't need to be enclosed or locking. I want to rack my switch and possibly a few other items. A shelf for it would be nice, too. Cheap is good.

I just got finished reading The Escapists' article about Eternal Darkness and I have decided that I must play it. I'd like to get an inexpensive Gamecube with at least one controller and a copy of Eternal Darkness. I have various computer parts that I can trade, or I'm not opposed to paying a...

Anyone happen to know where I can find a listing of what pins are what on the bottom of an athlon64? There is a document on AMD's site that tells what some of them do, but it doesn't describe their position. It refers to: "AMD Athlon™ 64 939 Motherboard Design Guide order# 30474" which is not...

Not looking for the router, I need to set it up as a repeater. I can buy online new for about $68.00, so I'd be looking for something a fair amount lower than that. Thanks.
