    Windows boot fail + BSOD + reboot; same issue even with different boot disks

    Sorry for the previous confusion. I have now unplugged all HDDs except the SSD and booted up. I got BSOD right as the Microsoft status bar began to appear onscreen (i.e., same error at the same place as my original post). Computer automatically rebooted, but this time I was able to boot...

    Windows boot fail + BSOD + reboot; same issue even with different boot disks

    I figured out what was going on, because it didn't make any sense to me as well. I have a third HDD connected that has a copy of Win XP installed on it so it must be booting that even older copy of XP up. Which means that I still have not booted from the SSD since I removed the gfx card. I'll...

    Windows boot fail + BSOD + reboot; same issue even with different boot disks

    When I previously said I unplugged the gfx card, I meant I unplugged the power supply to it, but did not physically remove the card from the slot. When I booted up the machine, I could hear the fans (presumably) of the gfx card emitting a very high pitch. The first time, Win XP on the...

    Hello All, I currently have an IBM X40 and I am looking to change the hard drive ... the current one is dying (having trouble reading data). I was wondering if anyone has any experience with changing an IBM hard drive? I'd like to keep some of the IBM software and infrastructure, not to...

    Looking for a new Keyboard w/ USB hub

    I thought about that and it's still an option. Just figured that if I could get a good keyboard with a USB hub, I could kill two birds with one stone and not have an extra thing lying around on my desk.

    Looking for a new Keyboard w/ USB hub

    Ever since I started using the Logitech Revolution mouse, I have been searching for a new keyboard to go with it. I was going to hold out for the Optimus, but since they sold out with no color and a ridiculous price tag, that's out of the question. I have found, however, that because my tower...

    Quick question abt the fan in the bottom chamber of the P180

    The black piece that sits on top? That I have, but it's tough putting it back on afterwards ... Could you be a little more specific please? I see the black plastic handle (the one on the actual fan, right?), but which way do I push? Towards the fan, away from the fan, towards the PSU, or...

    Quick question abt the fan in the bottom chamber of the P180

    Can you? I'm have a torrid time with it, b/c I am using a Modstream 520 and the modular design wires are just so damn thick, while the hole to put them through is just so damn small! THANKS!

    P180 + OCZ Modstream 520

    I just bought the abovementioned parts, and after putting everything together, I've found that the cable that connects the PSU to the mobo is not long enough. Does anyone know if I can get something to make them longer (e.g. an extension), or do will I have to get a new PSU? Thanks!

    HELP NEEDED for building a new PC please!

    Thanks again all =D Reseller ratings for ewiz are good. Found a place to get the orange Nexus 120mm ... Bobthelost: I thought that you were recommending the orange b/c it goes w/ the MOBO, haha ... but I think that's a good reason to get it regardless, haha.

    HELP NEEDED for building a new PC please!

    Any reason why I should go w/ monarch or tankguys? Lowest price available from the RTPE said ewiz (admittedly I've never bought from there). If I go w/ monarch (which is fine, since I will be getting the case from them), I presume that the stock fan is easily removable? Damn, just checked...

    Is "nexus" a brand, or are you just suggesting that I get an orange fan? Sorry if that's a retarded question ... as I'm sure you know, I'm not exactly savvy wrt computer hardware ...

    HELP NEEDED for building a new PC please!

    Dual core because I am building towards the future as well =D Edit: Actually, let me rephrase. Everything that I've read here and elsewhere seems to point to going Dual Core. Are there any reasons that I should/need to consider otherwise? Thanks!

    I'm thinking of getting the P180 ... I am also a big fan of modular design PSUs ... I'm thinking of getting the ePower/Tagan TG-530-U15 ... Does anyone have a similar setup? Are the cables long enough? Any other problems? Thanks!

    HELP NEEDED for building a new PC please!

    Technoob: You've given me some good reasons to get an Opteron ... but my main concern is that they are mainly focused on OCing. I'm definitely a novice in that area. However, I would love to buy a "underclocked X2 4800+" for a cheaper price, but if I am unable to OC it properly, it may be...
