    Logitech G25 Racing Wheel

    Do you have any other USB devices? Maybe a USB external DVD or hard disk drive? Flash Card readers also push USB ports too if you have one of them. THe main reason I blame the board is that I had a motherboard with a bad USB controller do what your system does. BUT, that does not mean the...

    Logitech G25 Racing Wheel

    Try it on another PC and see if it still happens. I would be willing to bet there is a problem with your motherboard and it's USB ports and not the wheel. But as I said, trying the wheel on another PC will answer that question quickly enough.

    Time Crisis 4 Requires Purchase of Two Games for Two-Player Action

    But I love Mugen!!! I love Honda even more! I just despise consoles and I guess I let my emotions speak instead of my brain. Either way, policies like this if left unprotested will just make these companies braver and do more of this nonsense.

    Time Crisis 4 Requires Purchase of Two Games for Two-Player Action

    Sadly the drones will line up by the thousands to buy it and further reinforce this horrible policy. Makes me happy to not be a console owner.

    Steam Portal

    Portal is an awesome game that I am hoping for either updates or a next episode. I too thought little of it and it sure turned into ALOT of fun.

    Top 8 Vista Annoyances

    Let me guess, you also like to download music or movies? You tend to click on links without thinking? You made sure you had no virus' or spyware? You expect a trial version of an overpriced poor working anti-virus to do much of anything useful? Sure sounds like ALOT of user error. I also...

    Will Phenom work on my AM2 Mobo??

    I would personally advise against any Phenom upgrades running an AM2 board until some bios revisions come out and it is really proven to run well on one. As it is, Phenom is struggling on proper AM2+ motherboards. You're only asking for heartache jumping on a Phenom right now. Please note...

    The 'Ring Record Taken By BMW M3 CSL - 7:22.8

    I 100% agree with you on that. No turbo will ever beat a supercharger, even with the parasitic loss of the supercharger. BUT, compared to that supra, the V8 turbo is a much nastier alternative. I also agree with your recommendations for that supra. Unfortunately, if you look into the crowd...

    The 'Ring Record Taken By BMW M3 CSL - 7:22.8

    I'd say that BMW is more likely able to do mid 11's in the quater mile with 500+ RWHP. Also, if you fully spooled the turbo on that supra and launched it you'd absolutely brutally destroy the drivetrain. Either the tranny, driveshaft or rearend would explode. That is the problem with most of...

    The 'Ring Record Taken By BMW M3 CSL - 7:22.8

    In a rolling start type race, it would most likely win any race against most V8's. But from a stop, the supra would be so far behind that it would be a lopsided race in favor of the high powered V8. On a track, the supra would run out of time before it could spool up enough power to win a 1/4...

    The 'Ring Record Taken By BMW M3 CSL - 7:22.8

    [rant] I normally will not even click on a supra link. They are extremely overrated and 99% of them are only making useable power at very high RPM power in an unusable power band making them useless for anything except dyno runs or straight lines. NO supra cannot hold a single candle to this...

    Gigabyte iSOLO 210 Mid-Tower

    Thanks! I will say one thing. After reading 50-75 of you guy's reviews over the last 2 weeks trying to prepare my own, you all make it look easy. Glad you like it and I hope to do many more!

    2.1 speaker set

    They are hard to find, but the Edifier S2.1D's make insane amounts of magic for $75-80. In fact, the entire edifier line dollar for dollar makes Logitech sound like toys. My S2.1D's get seriously loud and are seriously clear as well. I also have Logitech Z-680's to somewhat compare them to...

    Top 8 Vista Annoyances

    LOL!!!!!! Let me guess, you installed it on your old P3 and now have problems......... The biggest problem with Vista is that it exposes the weaknesses of older hardware. I find that guys like me, with all new tech hardware, seem to have no issues with Vista at all. I love Vista. It is a...

    Best mobo for overclocking

    680 boards scare me because of the seemingly high rate of failure and the parts they kill when they die. This is also probably because there are so many of them out there so the statistics seem higher than they probably are. But for SLI, it is the ONLY choice. If you go Intel chipset, wait a...

    HEadline....Addict needs to Build another

    Intel chipsets don't do SLI and there is no reason to expect that to change since they are in direct competiton with nVidia. AMD is not in direct competition with anyone right now so they are allowing Crossfire on their own and Intel boards. nVidia are just stupid for not allowing it on any...

    Antec Nine Hundred

    While I understand the space issue, you can mount 6+ HD's in this case. I fail to see any possible reason to need that many hard drives in a single PC. I have and love this case to death, my only gripe is the CPU power cable needs to be 12"+ longer than usual to fit properly in this case...

    Top 8 Vista Annoyances

    So far, my only annoyance with Vista is the pain in the ass it is installing a clean version with the upgrade CD's. To install the 64-bit upgrade Vista, you are supposed to be running a 64-bit OS. There are no clear explanations of this anywhere on M$'s site. You can do a clean install with...

    Auzentech X-Fi Prelude

    OMG!!! This is the stupidest comment I forgot to read so far in this thread. Creative was payed off by Auzentech to use their chipsets. Auzentech is not in direct competition with Creative since Creative has a virtual monopoly on gaming sound cards. I am thankful Creative actually gave...
