    I lost my know-how overnight!

    I forget how you get a power supply to work. I plug it into the wall, and then flip the I O switch to the I, then plug in everything and push the power button. What am I missing or where am I going with this? Well here's where I'm going. On 8/26 I spent $140 on a PC power 750 silencer...

    Simple escaping Vista feature

    In XP you could sort objects by date modified, which was good for finding the most recent file created in a folder. Microsoft, with Vista assumed once again that the computer is smarter than the user but it never will be. How can I bring back this feature of sort by date modified?

    Vista Home Premium 64 RAID5 Problems

    I can't get Windows to shut down and then load again. I've had problems with the BOOTMGR.sys and WINLOAD.exe which is related to the boot manager. I am currently on the 5th install and during windows update, which might be the root of the problem, it asks for a restart and then goes right...

    Against all good judgement

    I've been having major issue with my graphics on my other computer. So like any paying customer I told MSI what the deal was and they told me to try another card to see if it was the card or the mobo. Well my second card, an ATI 2400 crashed as often as my 8600 so off to Asus' website I went...

    Coloring coolant

    Any good ways to color coolant for looks? I would rather not spend any money on 16oz bottles of coolant but do it myself. Would a food coloring work without staining the vinyl tubing? It will make a big mess if it even spills so how about some other ideas, black would be best.

    Artic Cooling GPU Cooler COPPER!

    So it started out like like this. And now, it looks like this: Best one. Somewhat blurry. It wasn't too cheap to do it but I think it turned out well. Especially since it is so much larger that the card it can be seen very well through the window. So it can be done, just go buy...

    Selling MSI 8600 GTS-OC

    This card works, but it isn't giving me everything that I wanted so it's on the boards. It's still installed in my case and unless I get a decent offer on it I won't pull it out. It has a aftermarket passive cooler on it that keeps it below 53 even when benchmarking and my fan on the lowest...

    Buying

    I'm looking for a full tower case, something that I can cut up and do a lot of mods to so it can be dirty and scratched up to an extent. Little dents and dings are ok, but nothing that will prevent me using the entire case. If you got something lying around collecting dust, SELL IT TO ME...

    Video Editing Software

    I shot some video outside. To be more specific I had a cam mounted on my shotgun and the last time there was a lot of wind. I'm not a pro at editing nor do I wish to devote any more effort than is necessary to compile all the shots and clip out the boring stuff. That being said, I need a...

    Everest Ultimate

    Why did the SMART tab show me the temperature of my raptor to be 105F before I put a fan right on it, and now it says 115F. I felt it and it doesn't feel even warm, but at ambient. The value is 115 but the worst field say 96F and hasn't moved, are they backwards? You know when something is...

    OC'ing problems?

    God I hope I didn't fall into that for some reason. I'm getting intermittent lock-ups and pin it down to either software or hardware yet. Ran Memtest x86, and a full CHKDSK and it locks on my 750gb drive(secondary). So I disabled that but it still locks. How else can I narrow this down...
