    Internal PCMCIA card reader bandwidth / USB or PCI or SCSI ?

    Hi, I'm using Viking 40x 512mb cards. The reason I was asking is that I do notice the difference in download time on the USB reader vs. the PCI slot reader. Both readers are in the same machine and when downloading my photos it's a matter of which one I happen to plug it into. I'd be...

    Internal PCMCIA card reader bandwidth / USB or PCI or SCSI ?

    I have always had an internal reader that used a PCMCIA adapter for flash cards in a 3.5 slot on my desktop. I now need to decide on what interface I should get for the new build in progress. My research tells me that a PCI slot has 133 mb/sec bandwidth. I have always had this interface with...

    Gremlins have taken up home in my computer

    My fine running computer that I built 2 months ago is slowly being taken over by some punk, teenage gremlin wanabees. I know that for fact because when I opened the case last night I caught a glimpse of them scattering. They had dental floss hanging from the top of the case and were rock...

    "Chatters" when opening page or link

    MrChad, the only PCI card I have is the sound card and it's in the botton slot (#6) on an Abit !C-7 G MaxII. I'll try and reference shared slots on this MB to confirm that none are shared with the AGP slot... (my only other card .. a 128Mb FX5200).

    "Chatters" when opening page or link

    That's a good thought there, Oldman. I wondered that myself but only one window or link is opened. I have Norton 2004 AV and run the windows firewall as it seems to be less intrusive than the Nortons firewall. I did a full scan just yesterday and nothing, but I will check my web history the next...

    "Chatters" when opening page or link

    Sorry 'bout that ... a Chaintech AV-710 but I think this is in the IE software side rather than the sound card side. The sound function performs flawlessly whether I'm listening music or talking on IM and the sound, that "click" you hear when opening a page or link also works perfectly .. just...

    "Chatters" when opening page or link

    m m m my computer cha cha cha chatters when I open a page or hit a link. This is the internet sounds that come with IE6, the click you hear when you go to a page or link. The problem is that every now and then it will chatter real fast like a M134 mini gun on a Cobra and other times it will...

    Anyone ever seen an open 5.25" storage tray ?

    Yeah, well I'm a little more open minded than you. Not only did I think that the cup holder function was hilarious, I can use the 12v lighter plug-in to now test all my automotive gadgets and players that I previously had to go out to the car to test. It's (the 12v lighter) a good function to...

    Anyone ever seen an open 5.25" storage tray ?

    Some nice stuff there but I'm after a nice, neat appearing opening. Funny thing, while I was searching for one this evening I ran into THIS and couldn't stop laughing. A combination cup holder and cigarette lighter that fits into a 5.25" drive bay !! Had to have it ....

    Anyone ever seen an open 5.25" storage tray ?

    I keep my bills and important mail in an empty 5.25" slot on my computer. Does anyone know where I can find an actual fitting open tray that I can mount in the slot? Has anyone ever seen one? Thanks, Frank

    Problem with Lian Li

    Hi, I just built a system in a Lian-Li case and found the I/O shield a little tight but she'll snap in. I built mine with the case laying on a towel on it's side, it may have given me a more solid work area than what you may be doing (with the case upright). Just get the shield started and work...

    Best CPU Heatsink?

    I had the copper core OEM heat sink and fan that came with a new Prescott CPU. Nice and quiet in a Lian-li case but I wasn't happy with the 51c temps so I bought a Swiftech MCX478-V and installed a 55cfm 92mm fan with a gutted 92mm housing for a spacer on it. After a 20 hour seat-in, about 4...

    Siemens router, vonage phone, 2yrs OK, but now a glitch

    Hi, yes, the router firmware is the latest. UPnP is enabled at the Siemens configure page and on the computer. I have even enabled DMZ which shuts off the router firewall and still the one way conversation. Since messenger on new computer works fine when I take the router out of the equation I...

    Siemens router, vonage phone, 2yrs OK, but now a glitch

    Thank you for the reply. No, the new computer is a complete new system running XP pro. Works 100% except for upsteam audio in MSN messenger. If I take the router out of the system and run direct to the cable modem, MSN messenger works fine. If I hook up the old computer .... MSN messenger works...

    Siemens router, vonage phone, 2yrs OK, but now a glitch

    OK .. First, hello everyone. For 2 years I've run a Siemens SS2604 wired 4 port router with a Vonage phone (through an ATA 186 Cisco) and my computer running XP home. Never a glitch or hiccup. Well, the old 845 chipset/2.53 computer was due for an upgrade so I built a nice Prescott system on...

    I fear the worst >>got a bad MB ?

    Hello and thank you for reading this. I built a new system on an Abit 875P motherboard. Loaded XP pro, 1Gb of dual channel pc3200, SATA HD, Prescott CPU, etc. She came out wonderful in a Lian-Li case. Very sanitary unmodified build. I'm running stock specs. The problem is with the microphone. I...

    About 3 weeks ago I put together a new system, all the usual stuff, 875 Abit MB, nice video card, fast Prescott pocessor and 1 SATA hard drive. I loaded XP Pro and then got busy with real life stuff. Dug it back out tonight as I had ordered in another identical Sata Drive. Now .. keep in mind...

    Traffic court question (help?)\

    C'mon .. she was giving you a hint >>> Get the license renewed before you go to court. Tell them the truth, that it was an oversight on your part and you have since corrected it (and the headlamp). They will usually drop it all (unless you look like Manson) and let you walk with a slap on the wrist.

    Weird memory allocation type problem

    Morning, I have an older build, about 18 months without a glitch. Lately it has developed an unusual scenario. After looking through photo storage pictures or burning a CD, when I return to my desktop, all the icons are blank and they take several (maybe 4 or 5) seconds to come back to normal...

    BX chipset PII board question

    Thank you for all the insight. The motherboard ending up being an MSI 6119. The computer was a factory built job by a company called Quantex and is very well built. I bought the Powerleap brand slot to 370 adapter PL-iP3/T and a 1.4 Tualatin Celeron retail processor. A $90 hit .. this free...

    BX chipset PII board question

    OK .. so I was dumpster diving this morning and came up with a really nice 400 PII set-up with a 17" Nokia monitor. I expected the worst but to my surprise she booted right up, Windows 2000 Pro no less. It's hooked into my home network already and I can't find a thing wrong with the system...

    XP COA only

    Last year I picked up an OEM COA for XP Home after seeing a post here .. the post is obviously long gone and I can't remember the company's name but I did do a quick search on PriceWatch, etc. and around $58 seems to be the lowest price I can find. Being retired and on a fixed income I'd need to...

    Cox cable E-mail spam (is it a sting operation)?

    Bill, the addresses have never been used by me before. Following are two of the headers. I have x's out or removed some of the actual addresses that it was sent to as I believe that they are good addresses, not random generations. (note the return address on the top one ... "bone" as if to...

    Cox cable E-mail spam (is it a sting operation)?

    Bill, the addresses were obscure combinations that I picked for just this reason. Example: ca160red180 and us240blue700 There is no flippin way a spammer picked two of these out of the blue or from a numeric or alphabetic run, They were too different.

    Cox cable E-mail spam (is it a sting operation)?

    Motherboard / CPU swap with WinXP home

    Thank you. One last thing ... I've been looking over the help section for XP (on my computer) and can't find an answer.

    Motherboard / CPU swap with WinXP home

    Hello, and good evening. I've been running an Abit TH7II with a 2.4 P4 (Rambus and an 850 chipset) and I want to upgrade to an Intel MB (845PE chipset) with a 2.53 CPU and DDR. My question is: Will I be able to just swap out the MB/CPU/memory or will it fight me? Thank you
