    PCI X Firewire 1394b

    I do not think the 800 card will help with the CF transfers. CF is limited to a speed much below even firewire 400.

    Dell 1905FP vs. Dell 2001FP

    I have that 19" Dell and I think it is GREAT. the screen resolution is perfect for me. There is no way I could ever use 1600x1200. i do not do graphical work like cad, mostly just programming and web based stuff. If you want an everyday monitor, i say def. go with the 19". You will not be...

    POLL: New hard drive vs DVD-RW's

    I think I would choose hard drives, and really sensitve data (financial, pictures, home movies) to DVD's. I have had CD's that I used for backup refuse to read when I needed to get the data from them. I have heard that CD's and DVD's have this problem, with the Dye's wearing thin.

    420gb! Cools things to do with it?

    I would use the 120 as backup. Using the built in windows software, do nightly / weekly backups of your important folderes and files. That way if the big drive fails, all the good stuff is nice and safe.

    Does it Make Sense to Buy a DVD RW and a CD-RW?

    What I did was get a DVD-RW as my burning drive (CD's and DVD's) I then got a DVD-ROM drive for my other drive. The reason I did this was because the -ROM drives typically read quieter with less fan noise. I am not that interested in burning a CD at the fastes speeds possible.

    Max memory XP (or Server 2003) will handle?

    I had heard some boards have trouble addressing all 4GB of RAM. Also, the timings become slightly slower when you use more than 2 sticks in dual channel mode.

    Computer turns on for about 3 seconds then shuts off

    do not rule out temps. I had this happen to me when i did my build. You should try and re-seat the heatsink and fan. If not on properly, the chip will shut down defore post.

    Partition + HD space problem [not due to Allocation Table]

    It may be the BIOS. The controller prolly can handle the driver better for some reason.

    7 in one 1 floppy drive combo what do you guys think?

    I had wanted to get one of those, but with my Antec case, it did not want to ruin the look of the nice drive covers. So i opted against it. I have an external reader that plugs into my front USB's when I need it. If you MoBo has the pins for a front USB, then you can connect this no problem.

    Raise your hand if you think Dell is s***

    I have run XP on a PII 266 with 256MB of RAM and it was not to bad. Before the current computer, I was running a P3 500 with 256 and ran beautiful. Actually better than my IBM Optiplex i have at work which is a P4 with windows 2000 on it. Dell makes great computers for people who do not...

    How much does it cost to ship a full desktop cross-country?

    if you are moving in a few years, just get a desktop for now if you want. Maybe by the time you move you can get a new one, and just take a harddrive with all your data. 2 midrange desktops purchased over the next 3 years will still be cheaper than a decent laptop. Shipping wise, I...

    Pentium 4 550, at 60 degrees Celsius, and 12 volt rail at 5.58

    Sounds like it is throttling itself down due to heat. I have the same chip. it does run hot. you need to check to make sure the heatsink is sitting perfect on the chip. also try some thermal paste.

    Mac vs. Windows

    If you want to buy it and are using your money, you can go to a Mac Store and get one, or open a bank account where you are able to have a debit card linked to a credit card and use that to order. If you feel that strongly about it, get it.

    Mac vs. Windows

    OS X is a very stable and secure OS. Personally I run windows, and if adminstered correctly, you will never have problems. If you want a gaming rig, the only thing to get is windows. //Edit just read the above post, so disregard this as a plus. And do not get a Mac Mini. they are...
