Trouble setting up WRT54g router

I just got SBC DSL yesterday and had no trouble setting up the modem and getting online. I also purchased the LinkSys WRT54g router but so far I have been unable to get that to work with my connection. When I try to go through the wizard I can get through several steps until it attempts to test...

I'm looking into getting a DSL connection and getting off of dial-up. My question is this: we currently have a seperate phone line installed in the room with my computer for the sole purpose of internet access. The only phone jack for that line is in this room, with the rest of the house wired...

Freaky Boot Issues

Yeah looks like it must be the motherboard. Now I'm faced with a new problem. The old Intel BX boards are dead, and this guy has a slot P3 800 with SDRAM. Can anyone suggest a cheap upgrade option if I'm going to have to replace all of these components.

Freaky Boot Issues

Taking a look at another person's computer for them, that's being selective when it decides to start up. It's an older P3 800. Once it's on everything is fine, but most of the time when I turn it on I get no signal while everything else powers up. I've tried taking out all pci cards, swapping...

ATX case suggestions needed

I'm putting together a computer for my sister to take with her to college. I'm looking for an ATX form factor case, and I was wondering if anyone could offer up any suggestions. I'm looking for something that's small and light weight. I'm weary of ending up with a piece of junk, especially since...

Smallest case for intel 850GB

I have an Intel 850GB board that I'm going to give my sister to take to college. It's currently in a server case though, so I'm looking to move it into the smallest and lightest solution possible. Just wondering if anybody had any ideas. Thanks.

Audigy Drivers

Thanks ivwshane. It was the digital output only checkbox. Forgot all about that since I didn't have to do it with my previous sound blaster live! to get sound. Thanks everyone for your support.

Audigy Drivers

I'm using Windows XP Pro. I used the method from tweaktown where you install a sb live! series card manually first and then install the driver update. It says that it installed and is working, and it was able to detect my sindwinder gamepad, but I'm still not hearing any sound from this card. Is...

One of my friends recently moved away and gave me his audigy card, only thing is I don't have the driver cd. I was looking at the forums on where to get some drivers but the only thing I found was 377 megs and I'm on a dial-up connection. Anybody know of any alternatives or other driver...

Way to tell if CPU is dead?

A friend wanted me to change his HSF for him on an AMD Thunderbird cpu. It was working fine before, and after I made the switch it started to post and then stopped. I thought maybe it was overheating and was even worried that the CPU may be fried. There was no odor and after taking the HSF off...

Good UPS

Now that every warranty has basically expired on all of the parts in the computer I put together, it seems like a good idea to invest in a UPS. Can anyone recommend a good one? I currently have a 300w PS, with a 1.4GHz cpu. I was looking around at newegg, but I don't know much about this stuff...

Quieter Fan

Been using the OCZ Gladiator for about a year now, but it's starting to get to me. It was fine in a college dorm room but back at home the noise is too much. I've been looking at the Taisol fans at Newegg but I was wondering about the best route to take. Should I keep the copper HS and just get...

Liteon 24x burns but can't read cds

I have had the lite-on 24x cdrw for about six months now and it has always worked great. Within the past few days or so it has stopped reading cds completely. It either spits them back out or it just tries to read them unsuccessfully until I reboot my computer because it won't eject. The strange...

new dets cause direct3d to choke

Using a GeForce 3 and just installed the new drivers. OpenGL games run better than before but now all Direct3D games choke. I tried Unreal Tournament and Rune and both are running at 11fps for some reason. Anyone else encounter anything like this?
