Wicked! Must feel nice, huh?

Ahh, nice, good to hear :D Hopefully there will be a new version of the software released to correct the problem sooner than later.

For those looking to upgrade their notebook PC with some massive storage, it's never been easier, or more affordable. While 1TB drives have existed for a little while, the selection has remained minimal, and that's even more so the case when dealing with small height offerings - those able to...

I have no experience with Samsung hard drives or that tool at all, but I can say that sometimes software can be hit or miss. But in my experience, usually if the software states there is a problem, there usually is in fact a problem. But at the same time, I have no experience with that software...

I have this on my machine: /usr/lib64/kde4/kded_powerdevil.so Perhaps he did commit something? Not going to ask what it does. That's if the devil is even a male, I still have my doubts. Your example of Red Hat might be the best one out there. You're right as well... a LOT of good that goes...

Interesting! I might have to toy with this sometime soon. Did that fix the problem system-wide, or just with VLC? I have toyed a lot with Phonon configuration in the past and could never overcome the problem, hence resorting to removing NVIDIA's HDMI driver. Because the pros outweigh the...

Good luck, man! I don't envy PC problems like this at all. It helps that I tend to deal with a handful of them each year, though. Looking forward to seeing how the rig runs once the new PSU gets in.

He's asking about 2x more than what that processor is worth. Newegg et al are not good gauges for pricing 3-year-old hardware. For the same price, you can get a current-gen model that'd be much faster clock-for-clock: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115077 Or you...

To be honest, I believe that if the parents don't care or don't have interest in, well, being a parent, then chances are good that if a kid grows up to be violent or have some other less-than-ideal characteristic, video games or movies wouldn't be the fault - it'd be their parents. While video...

Haha, oh man. Your coffee awful bitter today, aye? :D I couldn't agree more though. But I still think it's lame that Facebook are being such babies about this... I am fairly confident Google wouldn't pull the same stunt. But I can't say for sure. If Facebook wants to retain users, maybe it...

I can't believe that there hasn't been a single comment on this! Sorry man, I ended up forgetting all about it and didn't spot it when perusing the forums :-( Unigine's Heaven benchmark has the same 'problem'. The second run might have a similar average FPS, but the minimum FPS is almost...

This is one of the references I looked at when deciding which services to disable on our testing machines. I am running most of the services listed there under the tweak section as disabled on my home PC and haven't ever encountered a problem (though no other PC can now detect this one on the...

Given the problems, if this chassis was $30 cheaper, it'd be almost a no-brainer. But the fact that the back bows when a 24-pin connector is routed through is just needless... this is something that most anyone building with this chassis is going to deal with. I also prefer the aesthetic cues of...

LOL! Just when you think you know somebody. Honestly, I am not too confident in any of today's storage devices, hard drives included. If I pick up an HDD, I anticipate it to last no more than three years, as that's pretty-much been my luck with any I've picked up in the past five years...

We've all heard of the 'Streisand Effect', named after American singer Barbra Streisand, where trying to keep something quiet or stopping a piece of information from getting out can only lead to even greater publicity, making the situation much worse. This wouldn't have been too common prior to...

In our first-ever look at a Rosewill product, we're taking the company's Blackhawk mid-tower chassis for a spin. It offers similar design cues to another mega-popular chassis and adds in a couple of new features to help set itself apart, so let's see if it manages to stand on its own and becomes...
