So the heatsink is the only real improvement to be made? I'm really considering ordering this today so I don't lose out on the bing cash back. I can wait another month or 2 if you guys think or know there will be a significant advantage to waiting.

Merged this post with the original

So I need a little advice. I already have the monitor, OS, hard drives, and case. Technically I don't have the OS. My cousin works for Microsoft and I'll be getting Windows 7 Ultimate from him. Gaming Office Programs Video Editing (very little) HD Movie viewing. Specifically 1080P videos...

Great for Xbox 360 games

Consider when buying combos like that from Fry's you are only buying the processor. In my experience, every combo I have ever bought from fry's the mobo arrives DoA or will be dead within months.

Our apologies... The product you have selected is not currently available for online purchase in the segment you have selected. Damnit. The ones I have had for 4 years are looking a little worn. Broke the stand off of on too. Was hoping to buy a replacement.

Would you trust your life with a replica?

There is no foam in them by default but you can select the option to put foam in it as well of color of the case. Bought 10 cases. Came out to be a little over $25 with shipping.

Try a bios update. I have had issues before where nothing appears to ever be wrong then something wierd like this for example happens and I go through every test I can think of and as a last resort I do bios update and it fixes everything. Now is your Vista OS running off the same HD as the...

All I really want is a server that is reliable in backing up data. Only real programs I use is ACT and Microsoft Office. I might not even need a server and just convert a normal PC into a file server. All I really need it for is to backup files off of 4 other machines on the network. I don't...

I updated the bios and everything works fine. Wierd.

For some reason. not even when booting up the screen does not work. I thought the panel was out but then I found out that when I set it up as a secondary display and the TV as primary it will work fine. I reinstalled the OS incase it was a problem as far as that, meaning new drivers and...

Torx is good for repairing some laptops. Usually the older ones.

I have a DFI Ultra-D. I didn't want to do a bios update because even though you are not supposed to use it for SLI, you can do a "pencil mod" on it where it can do SLI. Nvidia was pretty upset about that so DFI had to fix that with a bios update. All you had to do was use a pencil on the...

So there is really nothing that can be done then? I am basically capped out?

As the title says. DXDIAG (WINDOWS) shows this. and PCWizard2008 says this. Why?

This monitor is a Princeton 19" VL1918 and it powers on and off repeatedly. Any idea what could be wrong with it?

I took advantage of someone who needed money really fast. I feel kinda bad but if I didn't get it someone else would have.

P.S. I am only using VGA not DVI. Would DVI help alot on movie playback?

Ok I just creamed my pants after I got this deal but I got a Dell 2407WFPb for $150. The only thing now is movies don't look as good as they do when they are smaller lol. Is there any kind of setting I can adjust or program I can use that can play back my divx videos with more clarity?

Good luck at those prices :rolleyes:

Is it possible to use files and settings transfer wizard or something similar off a secondary harddrive? If so, how? Thanks

Got it to work. Raid was enabled in the bios.

I have tried 3 different hard drives now and windows will not recognize any when trying to install windows on it. I have a hard drive that failed, it can still partially boot up but crashes. You see the windows loading screen and crashes. I did some tests on it and it has some bad sectors...

Try running chkdsk /f /r by running the recovery console from your windows disk. If that doesnt work then try the windows installation repair. Chances are thats all it needs now.

Acronis has many different utilities. Which one are you refering to and what exactly can I do with it.

Lately I have been having people, family, friends, friends of friends, etc calling me asking me to fix their computer but they either live too far away or don't want to pay me for coming over their house. What is the easiest way to do remotely connect to their system if they have never done...

I'm trying to find out the fastest way to install Windows XP. I know with Windows 98 you could just copy over the cab files and install it from the hard drive. Another option I was thinking was preinstalling XP on another hard drive and just using that and ghost it onto a new hard drive and...

Using an OEM copy on a Toshiba Laptop. Yes, it is a legal version of Windows XP Home, it came with the laptop. It just isn't the same CD that came with the laptop since that CD doesn't offer the repair function. I called Microsoft and the tech support department was closed and the windows...

You don't understand. It won't let me get into windows at all. The farthest I can get is into the login screen. When I try to login it shows one window, nothing else. That window says I need to activate windows and then when I click ok, I get logged back out. I don't get to the window that says...

I just did a windows installation repair because some system files were corrupted and now when I log in it wants me to activate windows, so I click ok and it logs me back out without giving me a chance to activate. Any solutions?

A friend of mine's father wants to buy him a laptop for recording music for his band. I am not a laptop guy or recording, so I have no clue where to begin. I would like to keep it low buget (between $1000 and $1500) for the laptop alone, dont worry about software. I know it's not much to work...

That costs a bit more than the guy is willing to pay.

That would restrict the first router access to the PC's on the second router?

There is no possible way to have both wireless? The reason why they both need to be wireless is because the managers want to be able to be able to go anywhere in the restaurant with the laptop and be on the secure network.
