    sounds good... wasn't sure if the new cards were compatible with the older slot. Much appreciated.

    Video card in 4 year old system died, need upgrade.

    Hey All, I have a Q6600 powered system with an Gigabyte EP35 board (pci-x 1.0 I believe) What would be a good card to put in this thing since my 9800gt died? I've been meaning to upgrade anyway. Would like to stay in the $150 ballpark.

    Longshot: Need a user friendly mobile CMS

    My company has a business need for a CMS, but for mobile devices. Right now, I'm tinkering with wordpress and some mobile themes and plugins... and I'm sort of getting it to do what I want with a few hours of tinkering.. however.. I don't think the average executive assistant even with a...

    Ratpadz XT $25 w/Free Shipping

    Probably a stupid question, but does anyone have any issues with their Ratzpad with SteelSeries mice? I've been using my Ratzpad for a long time with an intelli 3 which is finally wearing down quite badly... so I bought a SteelSeries Ikari. The Ikari seems to loose tracking quite often on it, so...

    Switch Recommendation

    professionally, I've had better luck than you'd expect for the money with Enterasys switches. You'd probably be best served getting a 24 port C-series used on eBay as they don't demand the premium bucks of Cisco's and HP A Netgear gsm will be awesome until the PCB melts and the CSR's don't even...

    Relocating to new house, comcast needs a week to transfer

    Since I transfered over the phone and they told me to bring my existing equipment, I bet the provisioning is fine. I'll have to just give it a shot tomorrow. If anyone knows anymore about what actually gets disconnected outside the house, I think thats where I may need to tinker.

    Relocating to new house, comcast needs a week to transfer

    Hi All, I just bought a new house and the movers are showing up at 7am tomorrow. I called Comcast the other day to schedule the "transfer" of my service. I got some free upgrades to my service and intro pricing for 9 months just for moving, so I'm happy there... what I'm pissed about is no...

    Antec 300 $34.99 @ Fry's B&M

    picked up one of these a week or so ago at Microcenter for $39~ VERY cramped and not all that well laid out internally... the 2nd hard drive slot and a video card pretty much touch each other, had to move around some stuff... sturdy though and looks nice. my 2c.

    Announced: CoD Modern Warfare 2

    Interesting, i'm intrigued to see how they'll make this worth it. I had doubts about CoD5 being so close to 4... but they still feel enough like 2 completely different games.... oh well... i'll still own it.

    ESXi setups

    I'm in the process of migrating several roles to our newly deployed ESX 3.5 environment. We are using Lefthand SAN's and I couldn't be happier. The way they utilize IP storage instead of fibre has a ton of advantages, and performance thus far has been excellent. They are also very much in...

    VMware for OCP and HardForum

    ESX is fun like that... don't trust the documentation... nothing quite works as it should.... especially DRS and HA. Did a deployment myself earlier this year, still working it out.... the several thousands of dollars i spent on training was more like a class in philosophy.

    Jump on present-day deals, or wait 2 months?

    cases and PSU seem to fluctuate down the least... so extreme deals on those are probably worth biting on... but I would wait till all cash is on hand to get the build done all at once.

    Some newbie iPhone 3G questions

    thanks for the first post scott. If you could provide a screener or something as to where that manually transfer option is, it would be appreciated. I've gone through the entire interface I think with no luck, and my google-fu is all aboard the fail-boat.

    Some newbie iPhone 3G questions

    So I've been fortunate enough to be provided a company phone, 100% paid including the plan.... even for a long time apple hater, certainly a win. That said, I still hate everything else apple other than the iPhone... especially iTunes. I've never had a reason to use iTunes prior to getting...

    CEO has an issue with his Mac

    CEO has an issue with his Mac

    I wish it was that simple. We've ruled out network issues. His is the only machine out of almost 200 that can't get to Google. Changed switches, cables, even restarted the DNS server. No dice.

    UPDATE: Ok, so the Repair Permissions thing appears to have made every site that loads, load faster.. however... there are still a few sites that he uses regularly that won't load at all. Almost like DNS is effed in some way.. like it cached everything when he had no connectivity. He can't...

    CEO has an issue with his Mac

    So.. I know absolute squat about Mac's... but the CEO can use what he wants and he has one of the big ones that's basically a 24" monitor. He also has a tiny apple laptop, i think it's a powerbook.... so... he came to me today saying that the intarwebs was running really slow. The rest of...
