    NEC MultiSync 1740CX 17" LCD

    I can't speak for that exact monitor, but I have used the Samsung SyncMaster 730B [I could be wrong, but it's similar] and found that my NEC had better picture. Games look pretty good on that one, but even the Windows desktop looks that impressive. One thing I find about some LCD's is that the...

    Diskeeper 10 Professional Premier

    Matt, I was thinking of that idea also, but would Ghost actually preserve the fragmented portions, or copy it all back over as plain data. I am just unsure how benchmarking after defrags would work. It would have to be all disc oriented, and likely with huge files. I guess I never gave it as...

    XP install problem! Please Help!

    Try Windows Update and *see* if that fixes anything. I can't say if it will or not, because you seem to be running into every problem possible. :)

    XP install problem! Please Help!

    Well, usually NTLDR errors mean hardware issues. You may want to test the hard drive in another computer to see if it's ok... do a chkdsk on it.

    XP install problem! Please Help!

    It looks like it's trying to boot into a Windows that is not there. Did you format the drive again before booting into the CD? Make sure that the HDD and CD-Rom are on the same cable, HDD as Master and CD-Rom as Slave. I wouldn't bother with the Lifetools either, just try sticking to the WinXP...

    Diskeeper 10 Professional Premier

    I don't believe that benchmarking would be that realistic, as it could vary between systems. Overall though, it's well know that a good defragging application will help aide in smoother computer performance. As for other defragging software, that's an idea for an article that we will try in...

    This Explains a Lot

    That's about as much sense as I've ever heard him spew.

    Call of Duty 2

    Yeah, that's true with a lot of games though. I hate the fact that they have no cheat protection. Of course, so does Counter-Strike but I see people flying across the levels at times :-/

    List of Games You Think are Overrated.

    I agree with FEAR although I haven't played it that much. It reminds me a LOT of Doom, but far better and not as repititious.

    Different CD ROM problem!

    It could have to do with the + or - but I doubt it. Try formating the disc before you burn more to it, or try burning at a lower speed and see if that helps. It could be just the burner getting old also. I hate Roxio, so try a different burning program like Nero. That may fix your problems...

    Discuss: Logitech USB Premium 350 Headset

    Yeah, I don't think that's possible, unless there is some trick I am unaware of. Technically, the movie software would be using one sound card, and not both.

    XP Sp2 Issues

    It could have been that the site was busy at the time. I'm way further from the TG server than you are and I ping it for 44. You could have also had something else running at the same time, I dunno.

    Choice to upgrade...

    The only things I deal with while overclocking usually are the FSB, Multiplier and Divider. I really never toyed with the HTT multi before, but I believe mine goes up to 5x. I have only played PDZ online once and I suck at console FPS, so I quit that one. I don't have CoD2 either. I played...

    Choice to upgrade...

    Oh, that HTT. I really have no bloody clue what that even does, so I'd leave it default, lol. I meant HTT as in FSB. Yup, I play a little bit of online. What games do you play?
