XP Reinstall won't recognize HD

I apologize for the long post, but I've been staring at this problem for about 8 straight hours. I run a Athlon 2600+ on a Biostar M7NCD, which is a Nforce2 chipset. I have 2 HDDs, a 30 gig Maxtor and a 400 gig Seagate. I had both running in Windows XP. I reformatted the 30 gig HD and...

AT&T overcharged me $47 and refuse to change it

honestly, i've never had a problem with them reversing charges. when they say they don't have the power, someone is lying to you. and about that early termination fee - if it was within 24 hours, i wouldn't pay it. i would argue and fight that.

Did I really do bad on this assignment?

It's simple man. You didn't know what she expected. You see where she put "Examples?". Well from the instructions, I would've answered everything the way you did. BUT you can tell she's anal and wants long, drawn out explantions and reasoning for what you write. So just do that in the future...

Best way to store/invest your $?

Have you checked out ETFs? i'm thinking of doing it myself: http://www.toyourwealth.com/archives/arch_etf.htm It's an exchanged traded index fund. Basically a S&P 500 diversifed shares in one share. So you can benefit with the stock market and sell it whenever you want to. huy

401k Allocations...

Does your employer match a certain percentage? That's the first reason why 401ks are great, it's free money if your employer matches! Second, it's untaxed when you put it in. So if you were to put your money into an ING accout, you would have less money cause that contribution is taxed.

Best SAT review book?

Man, nothing beats the 10 REAL Sats. Get your hands on as many real SATs as possible. Sometimes they repeat questions, sometimes they are similar. Personally, no offense Zippy, but Princeton Review was too easy for me. If you're trying to shoot up from a low score initally, it's not bad. But if...

MODS -- PLEASE LOCK. I now know how to pronounce "Nguyen!"

Actually... it can't really be pronounced using English words. Win isn't exactly right - because you have more of a W sound in the beginning... more like a Wg - In... but that isn't easy to explain on the internet. About the source of the last name, Vietnamese people used to take the name of...

wire a new HD led?

My current setup is an Atlas 10K2 (I LOVE THIS GUY) and a 75GXP, now i only get to use one HD led.. so my questions are simple: can i wire both up by splicing the wires? and could i possibly use one LED that changed colors depending on which HD was being used? Thanks huy

Shaq---skilled or just BIG ? Could he do it WITHOUT the size ?

BigD480, as another true fan of Hakeem (and the rockets... man the draft was awesome), I got to say you have a MAJOR point. Give Hakeem 3 more inches to make him a true 7 footer, and let him keep his build, and we would witness even more beauty and domination than he showed us in '95 when he...

What was you SAT score?

I would say that college apps are now more then just SAT scores. Most ppl that apply to MIT and the like have high scores anyways. Now, its "you have an application, now SHOW me what makes you special." I think thats the mentality you should have when tackling a college app. huy

Don't Complain. Seriously. Even at 15, you were getting paid more than $10, considering taxes, an hour. At that age, no matter your experience, they were still taking a chance on you. You had no experience setting up a main web server in NT you say? I bet you an experienced engineer could have...
