    HELP: My hard drive just caught fire!

    Here are a few quick pics if anyone is interested: The damaged chip is the little one on the left. Fried Drive Here are the two 250 gig drives, side by side from the top. The scorch mark is actually on the GOOD drive. It got there because that drive was under the one that caught fire...

    HELP: My hard drive just caught fire!

    I had some free time this weekend, so I finally got around to setting up my 500 gigabyte raid array (or so I though). I plug the two drives in, hook em up to the raid plug on the motherboard, and turn on the PC. Everything looks OK, but then the raid controller can only see one of the drives...

    Computer shutting off on its own, any ideas?

    I think your PC is just getting tired and wants to rest. If there is nothing wrong with the power settings, and you dont have any viruses, your PC may be overheating. I had a PC that would reboot itself after a few hours of use, and then keep rebooting every 10 minutes. Turned out the CPU was...

    Boosting the volume of videos.

    Thanks for the reply, but I can't get TMPGEnc to deal with .avi files, and it does not seem able to deal with many audio formats either (a lot of video files I have are in AC3) Does anyone know of a program that can rip the audio stream from just about any video file, regardless of format?

    Boosting the volume of videos.

    I need a program that will extract the audio track from a movie, increase the volume, and replace the movie's audio track with the new louder one. I have a lot of avis from various places, and some of them have such low audio that even with my volume maxed out in windows, and speakers set to...

    Jessica Lynch signs $1 million book deal

    Why the hell does the media think that anyone who screwes up and is rescued by other people is a hero? Miners who are trapped underground and then rescued by other people are 'heroes' Lynch, who takes a wrong turn and gets herself captured, forcing the militart to send other soldiers in to save...

    Survey: 20 percent of woman cadets victims of sexual assault

    I have read similar studies conducted by 'womens studies groups' that have concluded that 1/4 of ALL females are sexually abused before the age of 21. Most of these studies are bullshit. Attempted rape can be defined as anything, and womens groups have extended sexual abuse to include glaring...

    my 2cents about 10 C Statue

    If you want to argue that a moument doesn't impose anything on anyone, then by the same reasoning a stanist who is running your kids school has the right to install a big monument to satan in the front lobby that says "Satan is our lord" in big letters on it. And by your same reasoning, this...

    my 2cents about 10 C Statue

    The 10 commandments are definately not religiously neutral. They clearly state that there is ONE god, and forbid the worship of false idols, which are clearly in direct contradiction with the constitution. The commandments also declare the sabbath a holy day, and in some versions name god as...

    Is America heading towards a 2nd Civil War?

    How is not letting a judge post something in a PUBLIC building censorship? If i march into a federal court and put a poster on the wall, it will be ripped down. Why does the judge have special free speech? Why can he post his ideas in a federal court, when I can't post mine? As far as not...

    Good job Dubya . . . .

    By definition, if a net job is created, someone who was previosuly unemployed must have benefeted from it. As for the taxes, it obviously depends on what they are being spent on. The real problem right now is that we have a half a trillion budget defecit. If there had been no Iraq war, and no...

    Is America heading towards a 2nd Civil War?

    To all the people who say they 'don't care' if a judge wants to put the commandments in HIS courtroom: 1. It's not his courtroom, its the publics. Judges are just state employees like any others. 2. What if a judge wants to put up the Koran, or any other religous document that you DON'T...

    Good job Dubya . . . .

    Don't worry, good 'ol Bush will give the rich more tax cuts soon. That will fix everything! I mean, when super rich people get more money, the first thing they do is run out and look for more people to hire!

    Do recent court rulings violate the 1st amendment right by condemning religion and promoting atheism?

    This thread makes no sense at all. Having no reference to god, one way or another, in federal buildings does not promote ANYTHING. It does not show any preference towards god either way. Posting a monument that has THERE IS NO GOD engraved in big letters would be promoting atheism, but that...

    Anyone have the pic of the cop writing a ticket during the blackout?

    I saw that picture of a cop in NY writing out tickets to people while watching a 70 year old guy direct traffic on CNN, and I have been looking for a copy of it on the net to no avail. Does anyone have this picture or know where to get it? Thanks, DML1001

    Are there any O(1/n) algorithms

    It may TECHNICALLY be possible to have a O(1/n) algorithm, but only a very stupid one. O notation gives you an upper bound on the complexity, so a O(n) algorithm can also be legally be called a O(n^2) algorithm. Thus, I suppose you could consider a NULL algorithm that does nothing regardless...

    Whats the power required to get something the size of a bb to the speed of light?

    Ugh, that star trek drive was just about the dumbest thing I have ever seen. It requires you to have a magical anti-gravity machine, and then ignores the fact that all matter has mass, regardless of the characteristics of the gravitational field around it. If your floating in space, it doesn't...

    Can't delete a folder in Win2k

    Ugh... I tried adding a new hard drive to my win2k machine recently. I decided to try mounting the drive to a folder on an existing drive (I chose e:\backup as mounting destination). Well, the thing worked like crap. It took 25 mins to copy a 5 meg file to the new backup folder, so I decided...

    Supposed "perpetual motion" device

    Georgeisdead: Perpetual motion IS NOT free energy. F = ma, NOT F = mv! A force is required to CHANGE the velocity of an object, not to keep it moving. All objects in motion will tend to continue to move unless some force acts to stop them (friction included, this is why things slow down...

    Supposed "perpetual motion" device

    sao123: The 'momentum' of the object (mass times velocity) comes entirely from the magnetic field generated by the electromagnet. Unfortunately, you will find that if you do what you are suggesting and use an electro magnet to accelerate an object, switch off the magnet, and then use the...

    Supposed "perpetual motion" device

    painkiller: They both have potential energy. If you drop a stone, the stone moves toward the earth, and the earth moves toward the stone (by an infintesmal amount). The force on both objects (the stone and the earth) is the same, but the distance they travel is not since F = ma, and the mass...

    XVID codec

    Ug, I HATE XVID!!! Has anyone had any luck with this codec at all? EVERY SINGLE VERSION of XVID that I have tried to use has had one of the following problems: 1. The video display is nothing but green blobs 2. The codec causes media player (or any other player I have tried) to crash...

    Nvidia's DAWN

    Damn, has everyone else seen NVidia's Dawn demo, or at least the stills from it? Looks a lot better than most CG movies that I've seen, including all the ones from pixar. While the GeforceFX looks like an overpriced dustbuster to me, I am eagerly looking forward to some new cards from nvidia...

    using dos games with sb live value

    Short answer: DOS games that were written for old SB cards don't work right under winNT/2k/XP However, it IS possible to get many of these games to work by using some sort of DOS emulator. Personally, I would strongly recommend that you checkout DOSBox (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/). It is...
