    Computer loses power

    I've been able to get into Windows 1 out of 10 times or so, but I can't find the common problem. Thought it was a faulty power switch, so I swapped the power button with the reset button on the mobo, but still the same problem. I reseated the video card and RAM, no joy. I'll check the...

    Computer loses power

    Don't think it's an overheating problem, as the comp has been off for several hours. It starts normally (fans spin up, DVD drive initializes), but then the fans slowly lose power, and the comp just shuts off. Again, it won't stay powered on for more than a few seconds. Thanks for the...

    CC FRAUD, NEWEGG.COM? KURTZ ENTERPRISES?

    I had the same charge back on July 15. Did the google search which led me to rip off reports which had a large thread going. Called the CC and filed a paperwork to have the charges disputed. They credited my account about a week after I filed the dispute. As far as the newegg connection...

    Looking for reliable and relatively cheap cable modem and router

    Viewsonic vp181b any comments?

    I'm thinking about buying one of these monitors off ebay and was wondering if anyone had experience with this monitor. I do digital photo stuff, internet, spreadsheets, an occasional DVD, and maybe an hours worth of FPS games a week. Just wondering what people's thoughts were. Also, does the...

    Lowe's and Home Depot accept competitors coupons... Great if you live in DFW Tx

    I've actually done this when I replaced all the doorknobs and hinges in the house. Sutherlands had a 15% off coupon back in December. Home Depot took it no questions asked. I subscribe to the Star-Telegram btw. Didn't know they would do it with carpeting. I need to check if they take the...

    What temps are you getting with your Thermalright SK-7???

    It's my understanding that any relatively new board (maybe KT333 and up) should be reading the temp from the diode in the athlon xp's. I know my temps with the 1600+ and a GC68 + L1A were around 44c idle with my old ECS K7S5A. Now the temps with the SK-7 + L1A are 47-48c with my MSI KT4V-L...

    What temps are you getting with your Thermalright SK-7???

    XP 1600+ @ stock, 1.75v. SK-7 with 80mm NMB fan ~53c idle, 58c load. The fan is a little quieter than a Panaflo L1A, but doesn't push quite as much air (I think 18cfm vs. 24cfm of the L1A). I've got an MSI kt4v-l mobo. With the Panaflo L1A @ 12v, temps seemed to be around 47c idle to 52c or...

    Whats the fastest Athlon XP with SK-7 and Panaflo L1A?

    What's the fastest Athlon XP I could get and still cool it with an SK-7 and a 80mm Panaflo L1A. I'm hoping that HSF combo would cool an XP2400 or 2600, but kind of doubt anything higher. I've currently got a pally XP1600 at stock speed. Thanks, Jonestown

    Can you run a PIII 500 without a fan???

    Thanks for the link. I did the 7 volt mod, and it did make a pretty big difference. The PC is basically inaudible from 5-6 away. I appreciate the help. Now if only I could get my normal pc this quiet. Jonestown

    Can you run a PIII 500 without a fan???

    Question as above. This is in an old dell and the PIII 500 is the old katmai core if thats important. Its got a pretty big heatsink on it, but I don't know if thats enough. The cpu is already kind of fanless. Those dells have that shroud that directs airflow from the case fan over the...

    MX440 PCI and 9000 PCI benchies

    Concerning the overclocking, there is a big thread about how the Radeon 9000(non-pro) will simply not overclock, even though the tweaker says it is. There is something in the 9000 pro driver and/or bios that is preventing or overriding the acceptance of the increased core/mem clock. People...

    Canon A40 not recognized by front USB ports

    Guys, Thanks for the info. I emailed Antec tech support just in case, but it sounds like I may be hosed unless I get a USB pci card. Which just means that I plunk down the cash for a USB 2.0 card which wouldn't be all that bad. :) Thanks for the help, Jonestown

    Canon A40 not recognized by front USB ports

    Would an add-in pci USB card work (even though I would have to go to the back of the computer). I guess I'm somewhat confused as to why power would be an issue, as only data is being transferred. Would I be able to use a USB card reader with the current conditions and setup? Thansk again...

I've tested the front ports by hotsyncing my Palm using both front ports, and there were no problems. I tried hooking the printer...

    Need basic photo editing software, and ???'s on archiving scanned images.

    Thanks for the reply. I checked out the review of Photoshop Elements on cnet.com. Cnet seemed relatively positive on the software, but really recommended Ulead PhotoImpact. Does anyone have experience with PhotoImpact? Thanks again, Jonestown

    Need basic photo editing software, and ???'s on archiving scanned images.

    Damascus, Sorry, we don't have any of the negatives. I guess I should say that I would like the best quality given the pictures we have. I am truly clueless when it comes to this type of thing. Thanks, Jonestown

    Need basic photo editing software, and ???'s on archiving scanned images.

    My wife has decided to scan in her family's old photos. I need to find basic photo editing software that would allow her to edit the photos (duhh), and organize the photos into some sort of album so we can burn them to cd. I've been looking at Microsoft Picture It! Photo software (trying to...

    Modded my Antec PSU...Quiet Now!!!

    I successfully modded my Antec PP303X power supply by taking out the stock temperature controlled fan and replacing it with a Panaflo L1A. After I did the mod, I couldn't believe how noisy the stock fan was. I now walk by my computer and wonder if the thing is on. I'm running a 1ghz Duron...

    I'm looking for a small desktop micro atx case that looks sexy and is cheap for a home theater/entertainment pc (DVD and MP3 only). It also needs to be able to allow for full height AGP/PCI cards too. I'm also looking for recommendations on a AMD micro atx mobo with an AGP slot and...

    How high with SVC GC68 and Panaflo L1A?

    I think I'll probably go for an XP 1600+ or 1700+. Should be able to get either of those for aroud $60 or less. Doesn't sound like the panaflo/gc68 with a 1800+ will cut it. Thanks for the input. I'm more concerned with overall quietness of the system than performance. The 1600+ or 1700+...

    How high with SVC GC68 and Panaflo L1A?

    Quick question. What would be the fastest Athlon XP cpu I could get and still be cooled with the GC68 and Panaflo L1A? SVC said the heatsink w/ stock fan was good for around an XP 1800+. I would like to go with an 1800+ with the Panaflo/GC68, but don't know if that setup would adequately cool...

    AMD 2000xp @ 1250mhz??? help me please!

    I just set this board up last night with an XP 1800+. You need to change the FSB in the BIOS to the 133mhz. The default FSB is 100mhz. I don't think there is a jumper on the board to adjust FSB. Go to amdmb.com and find the MSI forums. Lots of good tips for setting up the KT3 Ultra. Jonestown

    Duron 1Ghz operating temperature

    My temps using mbm5 are around 43-45c idle up to 50 load, but the comp is in a wood cabinet (poor airflow, need to mod the computer desk to exhaust hot air). In with good, out with the bad. I'm using a 80mm panaflo L1A modded onto some cheap 60 x 60mm coolermaster hs with cheap thermal goo.

    Found a 60mm panaflo, mount to heatsink?

    I've got a cheap coolermaster DP5-6H51 that is getting to be a little too noisy. I found a 60mm panaflo at pcmods.com that I would like to use as the fan instead of the one that came on the cheap hsf. The specs for the coolermaster were ~17cfm and ~35dba (sounds much louder than rated dba)...
