Will a Multi-Function printer/scanner work with a wireless print server?

I already have an HP Officejet G55, and wish to find a compatible Wireless USB Print Server. Seems like each model has a very short "compatible" printers list.

Will a Multi-Function printer/scanner work with a wireless print server?

The Linksys WPS54G will NOT.... it is a POS anyway, even the setup wizard does not work right (the screen where you enter the WEP passphrase tells you to leave it blank and hit "NEXT" if you don't use a passphrase, just a WEP key, but when you hit NEXT, you get an error msg saying you must...

Help me design Gaming SFF System

Two very nice sounding SFFs.... can I just have yours? One question on the NForce4... (since I'm a noob with these)... does it have onboard RAID & is it easy to set up when installing XP Pro? Any issues with using this? I want to mirror the drives to save the hassle of one going down.....

Help me design Gaming SFF System

Time for a new gaming rig. I have built a few computers in the past (intel and amd), but never a SFF. I want to go fairly high end to run a Dell FPW2405 panel that I have on order. Thinking about. SN25P A64 3800 or 4000 90nm (not X2... which core? i'm a bit confused between the...

Circumcised vs not *with poll*

Definately a stupid religious holdover. No medical reason to do so. We had a baby boy 10 weeks ago, and we researched it thoroughly. No need to put the "little man" through that.

BFG FX5900 not working update

My 300w Antec is working fine with an Athlon Thunderbird, 3 case fans, two optical drives and three hard drives, plus network card, firewire card and BFG5900. Then again, this PSU did outperform a number of "400w" models in a PSU test some time ago.

Where can I get a BFG 5900?

I just got mine back from BFG yesterday, and all is good. BFG were superb, great technical support and ultra fast RMA process. GameVE is on my $h!t list forever, as their customer support is rude, unhelpful and their "policy" (fine print which is very hard to find on their website) is to...

Advice - display breaks down as card heats up

This story reminds me of the day I screwed a 486 fan to my TNT1, and my random Quake2 lockups went away. Take the side off your case and aim a desk fan at the internals. See what happens.

Just wanted to say thanks to all who buy BFG 5900's and try to flash to 5900U/5950.

They sent me an email with a UPS tracking number. I was then able to go to the UPS website and see that the package had actually been picked up and was in transit. Good job BFG.... same day turnaround for RMAs is about as good as you can get.

Kudos to BFG... at 9:30am yesterday they received the dead card that GameVE shipped me, and had a new one on a UPS truck headed my way before the end of the day. Fast turnaround, no hassle :) Wish the GameVE losers had not sent out opened RMA crap in the first place though.

RMA to BFG. I don't trust GAMEVE (since it looks like others have RMA'd to them and just received another faulty item, losing out on postage once more). BFG deserve a chance, since their customer support on the phone seemed good. Still will be without PC for at least 2 weeks though.

My irritation is very specific and is not aimed at the "flashers", although they may be the originators of the problem, if they screwed up their cards and then RMA'd them. My irritation is solely aimed at GameVE for the following reasons: 1. Receiving RMA product is part of doing business and...
