Poll: Your predictions for tonight's debate

Yes, deciphering is about right.... Kerry added so many words to his sentences that it was hard to tell exactly what he was saying

Strange Hard Drive Problems

(System: Dell Dimension 8100 Pentium 4) Please bear with me on the very extensive description of the problem and attempted troubleshooting procedures. Thanks! I am trying to recover data from a particularly uncooperative Deskstar 60GB 7200 RPM hard drive. The problem started rather suddenly...

So how did YOU discover Anandtech?

I migrated from www.virtual-hideout.net, a little known hardware overclocking\case-modding\reviews website two years ago or so, but I didn't discover the forums until several months thereafter.

How great is the risk for increasing refresh rates beyond system's recommendationn....

Thanks for all the help, I've finally got it working 1600x1200 @ 86 Hz, 32-bit color! I tried editing the registry, I used regshot and took shots of the registry to find out the values that changed when I changed refresh rates, but setting those didn't seem to be making any changes. So, after...

How great is the risk for increasing refresh rates beyond system's recommendationn....

I've already tried that, but it's limited me to 75 Hz, even if I uncheck the box and press "Apply." Although I do know where the key in the registry is to enhance the refresh rate. I'm just wondering if it will destroy my hardware if I do that.

This sounds like a CPU problem to me, it could be that the CPU or HS isn't seated properly as mentioned by CAK. I had a fried Athlon when I was putting together my PC a year or so ago and the computer would boot up for only a few seconds and then crash. Usually it didn't even make it to the...

The part from Almost Heroes when Chris Farley has to get the eagle egg from the nest, high in the tree, and then haul it back to camp. That part gets me laughing every time. :D

I know a computer shop that tells me the ECS K7S5A motherboard is junk. (they claim 30% return rate)..what do you think?

I've built a computer for some customers with the ECS K7S5A, and my sister just ordered an ECS a few days ago. No complaints, the motherboard is stable and runs at a decent speed. Plus the price is fabulous.

Favourite kind of cheese?

Best: 1.Gruyere cheese would be my favorite, that stuff is soooo good, just melt a little bit on bread... yum. 2.Colby, but it has to have just the right amount of aging, not too fresh, not too aged. Runners-up: Most of those good Italian cheeses Worst: 1. Pepper jack 2. Extra Sharp Cheddar.
