Regular Crashes

My thinking is that you may be under powered. I remember that I had a celeron 300 overclocked to 450 (much like the rest of anandtech) and I had a 300 W power supply. Thing is, whenever my computer crashes due to heavy lifting, it is a temperature thing. Could be that you need to clean out...

DFI NF4 won't boot

Wow all, thanks for all your replies. It is SWEET now that I have it running. I am not sure about the clear bios problem I was having, but as you mentioned Scott, holding down keys, hitting the start button while clearing, all must have had some affect. Here is a really weird thing though. I...

DFI NF4 won't boot

Yeah, so that none of that fixed the problem. Any other advice? Although I didn't check without the video card yet because I don't know what I would be looking for. Some explaination there would be appreciated also. Thanks.

How can I check it with the video card out, what am I supposed to be looking for? Also, from the power fittings reply, would I use a floppy power connection for connection 1? I hadn't noticed that before, I will be pi$$ed if that is it, well not really if it fixes everthing. Thanks for all...

not sure this is the right place, but how do i rip shows/movies from Tivo?

If you have the tivo to go functionality, all of this becomes very easy to do. It allows you to move the fiels over to your computer. Then, if you go to the tivo site, you will see that they are helping to market the Sonic MyDVD software so that you can then burn the movies/tv shows/what ever...

C++ Help with Infix to Prefix

This should do you, it puts everything in postfix, the setupword method that it uses just converts operators like + and - to other things so you don't need that. I also don't feel real bad about you not getting the full learning experience of doing it yourself because this is in C, but it should...

Is every large building dangerous?

I am sure that they had complete and utter chaos in London and Paris in WWII. Don't attempt make the WWII bombings insignificant. (Not that you consciously did that) One of the problems is that society forgets how bad things can get, we get complacent, and then this happens.

Question on drive setup

I am pretty sure that some/most CDRW makers advise you to make your CDRW a master drive. There are different view points on how to set this up but I am going with my burner as the secondary master, exactly how you have it. This is what the manufacturer suggests so it can't be all bad ;) Also...

Max number 255.. Why? why not 300, 200, 99????

The reason 'they' cut it off at 256 is 'they' think that this should be long enough for what you are doing with that input. It also has to do with how big a byte is--8 bits.(like what tagej said) So if you wanted to go to a bigger number you would need to use 2 bytes of data. It all has to...

Where should I put my second fan?

Ok, thanks for your reply. I the one on the side is right over the cpu. The one on the back is just to the left of the cpu so the two fans would be all of about 3 inches apart so I don't think that will work. But do I want more fans blowing in than blowing out, or does that even matter?

I just bought a new case and it has one fan that blows from the side of the case right onto the mb. I have another fan and want to know if I should put it on the front or on the back. Also, on the back would be blow out of case and on the front would be a suck into case, correct?
