Trying to Break a Computer :UPDATE:

Why don't you just pay via check or money order? I know for a fact you can purchase items at the egg without a credit card. I bought a panasonic plasma via check through their site. It takes a few extra days at most. Why do you need to be breaking computers and borrowing credit cards?

What's better?

I've played with a raid 0 setup on my current system and although there is probably a quantifiable speed benefit for certain tasks, that extra harddrive is usually put to better use as a separate storage device. If you're only juggling data with two drives, it's better to just offload the paging...

paying by checks

It took about three weeks from the day I mailed the check to the delivery date. Of course, this is a television and I'm on the other side of the country. So results may vary for smaller and less fragile items.

paying by checks

I just placed and order with newegg about two weeks ago and used the check/money order option. I normally use a checking card, but this was for a plasma TV (over the daily limit on the card). Anyway, the TV is on it's way via AIT, so I don't have any complaints. It's not mentioned in their...

Suggestions for watercooling?

If you're looking for something unobtrusive (i.e. you don't want hoses and water pumps on your desk) you might want to look into koolance cases. http://www.koolance.com/shop/default.php?cPath=28_43

RAM Hardrive?

I imagine anyone who does a lot of "downloading" could make use of one of these. Fast decrompression and par reassemblies.

USB troubles

The driver is displaying as Enhanced PCI to USB, which is the 2.0 driver... Sorry, but I'm baffled. :( Would be helpful to have another 2.0 compliant device to check. Then you could at least rule out the camera/cable if the problem persisted. Anyway, hope you manage to solve it.

USB troubles

Assuming the camera is 2.0 compliant, as is the cable and the onboard USB port. The only reason I can think you're getting that message is: A:You're not using the proper drivers from your motherboards manufacturer. B:UBS 1.1+/2.0 is not enabled in the BIOS. C:You don't have XP service pack...
