Sound Blaster driver

Anyone know where I can get a driver (the one that works) for CT4170 sound card? Creative's web site does not offer valid drivers. A lot of people (on the internet) suggested PremioPC.com but they did not have the drive that would make my sound card work either. I'm running Windows 95. I...

Which Linux OS?

I just downloaded and installed FreeBSD. For learning purposes, they all pretty much to the same. What's the difference b/w Win95, 98, NT, 2000, XP, & ME when you're trying to be familiar with dragging your mouse and clicking buttons? The same concept applies here. If you wanna learn linux...

Does anybody know what's happening at Anandtech? I've been visiting the site everyday for the past few months but no buyer's guide yet. If you know of one, please recommend another site that has a buyer's guide.

Power Surge fried my power supply

Konichiwa, I must admit that I read your post wrong. Even missed the smiley face. My apologies. I was in a hurry to get the ordering process over and done with. For the past two weeks, I've been shopping online for parts. I'm almost done now. Last night I put together my new computer...

Which burner - Plextor or HP?

Konichiwa, I'm not abusing anything. If I can't find the link onvia from PC, and inquire about the reimbursement process, I don't see that as "abusing" the situation. I'm a first time customer to PC and onvia and I merely asked what any firsttime buyers would have sought out. If...

Which burner - Plextor or HP?

Thank you all. I'm ordering a Plextor. One more question: onvia.com is not listed as one of pointclick's reimbursement sites. Will Pointclick still honor the 10% reimbursement request for purchases made through onvia?

Which burner - Plextor or HP?

I'm looking at an HP 9300 series (32x10x4) and a Plextor (32x12x10). Without looking at the speeds, which one is a better choice? I'm looking for quality. I've been using HP 7200 and 9200 at work and haven't ran into any problem. How are Plextor burners?

Best Diagnostic Utility Software?

Norton Utilities is a waste of time. It's pretty dangerous too. It made several of my systems extremely unstable and I've had to reinstall/reimage all the machines where NU was used. I'd throw away Norton Utilities. On the other hand, if you're still running DOS (hehe), NU is a very good...
