    Anyone use the Denon or Marantz apps to control a receiver?

    I use the Denon app on Android and it works but the experience is slow and buggy. Usually I just pick up the old school infrared remote after that.

    Core 2 Duo in an old Intel 915G motherboard?

    I have a spare Core 2 Duo (E4500) and a spare Intel D915GAV motherboard (http://reviews.cnet.com/motherboards/intel-desktop-board-d915gav/4507-3049_7-30960808.html) lying around. Is there any chance of them working together? The board came out long before the CPU did. It'll physically fit...

    Will a Pentium 4 Northwood suffice for HTPC?

    Don't be discouraged, I had a PC with the same processor as an htpc for the longest time. You've just inspired me to bring it back from the grave!

    Outlook 2010 Colour Categories & Follow-up Flags

    In Outlook, you can mark messages with colour categories and a follow-up flag. When you change the flag to 'complete,' it clears the colour as well. Is there a way to clear the flag without clearing the colour (I use it to sort my messages). I.e. keep the function of the two items independent.

    Dolby TrueHD in Theatres?

    Are modern theatres equipped with these decoders (along with DTS HD Master Audio)? I have yet to see a TrueHD trailer before a movie starts. But then again, I don't visit the cinema very often. If yes, then is the sound data still recorded between the film sprocket holes the same way as plain...

    How to upconvert standard def DVD to "near HD"

    I have an older Panasonic AE700. AFAIK, there doesn't seem to be an internal upscaling circuit (I bought the Japanese model and am still grappling with the non-English menus...) As for kalrith's response, the projector contains three native 1280x720 LCD chips :)

    Cable for Digital Audio?

    Thanks guys. Went out to the local dept store and turns out they had Monster composite video cable on sale for only $2.99 (Cdn). That's a cheap price to pay for piece of mind :)

    Cable for Digital Audio?

    I've always used cheap stereo RCA cables to connect the digital coax output from my DVD player to home theatre receiver, without noticing any quality issues. I'm shopping around for a "dedicated" cable for this purpose, but I'm wondering if I'll actually notice a difference? What kind of signal...

    Flight sims?

    Recently found a brand new joystick in my old hardware stash. Apparently I thought I would use it one day. Anyway, what are some good yet not-difficult flight sims or flying games? Just want to have some fun with this thing.

    Old WD Raptor 74GB

    I've had this drive for a number of years now and have been very happy with it. Just too small now. How does it stack up against today's WD Caviar Blacks and Seagate 7200.12s? How about the 150GB and 300GB Velociraptors?

    How to scan to PDF

    I used to have an old Canon MP700 that came with software to scan directly to a multi-page PDF - very useful! Now that those days are gone, can someone recommend a free application that will let me do this that is compliant with TWAIN scanners? Currently I use a Canon F80 and Lexmark X5690...

    Simple audio mixing software

    For those that have lived through the VCD karaoke disc era, you'll no doubt remember that the left and right stereo tracks were used individually for background accompaniment only without vocals (L) and original song with vocals (R). I'm watching some karaoke videos on youtube with same...

    Turning old computer into a server

    You're right, I saw a very noticeable improvement with upgrade to gigabit. Not sure if it was due to the bandwidth increase or the decrease in overhead from enabling jumbo frames, but it was well worth it :)

    AMD PowerNow! Technology?

    Got my server up and running now with an Athlon 64 3700+ clocked down to only 1GHz and around 1.3V, with CPU throttling on the mobo bios set to 25%. CnQ enabled. With current fan settings, my Athlon 64 does the same thing that you describe. I'm happy :) Next up: dealing with my X800XT...

    AMD PowerNow! Technology?

    I'm considering getting a Mobile Athlon 64+ for an old desktop mobo with the NF3 250GB chipset. Does the PowerNow! throttling feature on the CPU work with desktop boards? Or is it only specifically for laptops?

    Minimizing power consumption

    I'm recycling an old Athlon 64 3700+ system into a simple file and print server. To minimize power consumption, which option would work better? 1. Underclocking the CPU. Currently running at 2.4GHz stock (89W power reference), wondering if bringing it down to say 1.4GHz and reducing the...

    IDE Size Limit

    I'm actually going to use it on an SATA hard drive to connect it to an IDE interface on the old PIII mobo. For the price though ($4) I guess I can't expect too much from it :S

    IDE Size Limit

    I'm reviving an old PIII computer turning it into a file server. A 1TB SATA drive will be going in it, but the motherboard only supports PATA (IDE). So, I'll be using a SATA to IDE adapter. This one I found on ebay :) Will this pose any problems. I don't recall there being any 1TB IDE...
