What I really cannot wait for, is for the various lapto pvendors to agree upon a laptop mini-PCI spec that allows for removable and upgradeable video cards! They already have a few designs out there, and I've heard it touted in a few places... but I want to see industry adoption of that...

Yeah... it had that effect on me too! ;)

O've always enjoyed Logitech's wireless offerings. I've currently got a Logi Wireless mouse, and my wife has a Logi wireless keyboard and mouse... I've loved the 1000's since they came out, and have seriously comtemplated upgrading, and now, with a keyboard/mouse combo, the choice has...

I, quite honestly, cannot wait to get my hands on one of these babys! Much cooler than past 64's.... yummy. Not a bad thing to say about them, as it appeasrs that the AMD engineering dept hit the nail on the head again for a processor!

Ya know... I had never thought of this either... but despair has a way of making you try *anything* to figure out a problem! Heheheheh

Here is an odd as hell fix for a similar issue I have on our D600 laptops. We have an app at my company that has some GUIS where the text comes out blocky and unreadable. All other text in the desktop and any other apps remain fine. Only that one app. Solution! Catch this one: Open...

Filezilla I've used it for mass FTP... I dont know if it automatically takes the downloads as well. It is open source, and for what I use it for, it works like a champ! Do a search on Filezilla or if this is not what you need, try googling Open Souce Download manager and see if anything...

Schwing! Alternative bencmarking software! I'm always looking for something like this! I had never heard of them prior to your article, so thanks for the review! :D

I, myself am not a big fan of this case, simply by looking at hte rear. It appears that there is nothing more than pre-scored plates that need to be removed in order to have your ports. Those pre-scored edged are sharp and can cause painful injuries. Most cases I've seen wit hthat type of...

THAT.... is an Excellent bit of engineering!!! Wow! I might just have to save up for that instead of just the press only!!! I've alreay got several of the tools that the XShop would need! W00T!! One other thing... any of you homies get a subscription to MaximumPC... go check the new...

I, myself drop my mouse on a headshot gaming mouse pad. Very smooth surface, I like it a lot!

My theory... the card is bad. Basic drivers (vga) are just going to be triggering the basic functionality of the video board. When you install the proper video drivers, it is trying to enable the more advanced functionality of the board and display at higher resolutions and color depth...

The old days of the K5 on the Socket7 and the SuperSocket7 are way, way gone... You will not be upset when you save your self several hundred dollars by setting up an AMD64 based system. As good or better performance almost completely across the board. Take the money you saved on the...

Modding the external structures on a power supply is safe, as long as you follow up on the knowledge that you already have (work on it out of the box and the caps will be depleated and the risk of shock will be significantly reduced. Ultra PS's will be UV reactive. I can speak from...

I played this last year at Quakecon2004, and it was a BLAST! I have the demo on my PC right now, and it is a scream! The physics of the driver and the ragdoll animations just crack me up! Plus, the totally over the top games beyone racing like the Long Jump (Speed your car into a reinforced...

I, myself, use this exact same Power Supply and I love it. The modular connectors are standard molex form factor, so the modder in me took advantage of that fact. I purchased black molexes and the appropriate pins for the inside, and built my own cables for my unit! The modular concept that...

I disagree Rob... there is something that can be done... DNS servers that Comcast has in place are failing to act reliably. I changed my IP properties to include some other publicaly accessable DNS servers, and that *immediately* fixed my problem. I was down, no sites responding... called a...

Me? I'm such a SLi supporter. I just think that it offers me the best possible ammount of forward flexability to handle the forseeable future! If I have a game in a year or two that eats my 6600, I'll snag another 6600 and SLi them together. By that time the 6600 will be dheap, so the...

This wouldn't by chance be a Gateway GP or E series machine... would it? Just curious....

Long shot, but try locating an identical drive and swapping PCB's on the bottom. If it is having a logic problem, swapping to a working board may do the trick. I have heard of this working *once* in my lifetime... and it weas just reciently (in the past month). If you have nothing to loose...
