    wireless keyboard and mouse

    I have a wireless track-ball mouse and a wireless keyboard I bought as a package from CompUSA for $70. They are Microsoft. The track ball mouse works fine. I like them because I play my music through my computer, and I can take the keyboard to the couch and still advance the music and control...

    By the time CPU speeds get close to light speed, computers will have taken control of us, and we will all be living in the Matrix and not care...hehe Or perhaps there is another dimension that forgoes physical space making connections possible at faster-than-light speed? Or perhaps India will...

    Firewalls. whats good?

    Zone Alarm. Just have the freeware version for now, but I would not have any problems with shelling out $50. for the Pro version. I like it because it has an easy to use interface. It took less than an hour for me to configure it to my needs- including reading about all the options and such...

    Have over a thousand MP3 files, and not one has an ID3 tag...need help

    Just finished applying ID3 tags to my music files. Used the aformentioned http://www.id3-tagit.de/ software. Worked like a charm. Very clean interface, looks like Windows Explore. And easy to use, I went through about 800 songs in less than an hour. However, I did not type in each...

    Have over a thousand MP3 files, and not one has an ID3 tag...need help

    I have ripped most of my cd's onto my computer using Nero 5.5. Virtually all the disks did not have ID3 tags attatched to the songs. So I chose to enter the artist name, and album title manually during the ripping process. That was fine, the titles show up in Windows Media Player, so no...

    Types of ram

    I have the SOYO Dragon Plus as well. I am running one gig of Mushkin DDR2400- (2) 512 chips. I was told by a reliable source that the SOYO Dragon Plus, though offered as a board that can handle 333Mhz RAM, does not actually attain that bus speed between RAM and CPU. So, I concluded that it...

    Thanks for the leads. Seriously considering a Baybus case mod. Thinking I dont need the double throw though (7v and 12v) Just on and off will work for me. It would look sweet on my case I think. Has anyone heard of a hardware/software package that would turn fans on and off in accordance...

    60 GB Maxtor only showing 34 GB?

    Let me get this straight. You are running winXp with your HD formated with Fat32 partitioning? Hmmm. I am thinking that if you format the other drive as an NTFS you may have problems reading any files on that HD. Not sure though. I know if you set up a dual boot system, one fat 32 and one...

    Which 80 GB Drive

    I am using two D740X, 80 gigs in a raid configuration for about 2 months now. Have not had any problems. They make a different sound then the WD's when they search, but I cannot really even hear them over my chasis fan, they are very quiet. I would recomend them, but I would refer to John's...

    Turn off hard disks: After 1 Hour <~~~Good or Bad???

    hmmm. I also power down my maxtors after 6 hours of inactivity. I think it is a fairly "natural" sleep mode. My last hard drive was a WD and I killed it by using the SLEEP option on my keyboard, which I think shuts down the Mobo? My HD went to sleep and never woke up. Could not even reformat...

    Don't Ever Buy PNY!

    I also had a bad PNY card. It was an Nvidia Ti4600. Ocassionally on start up it would give me multicolored verticle bars. Although pleasant to look at, it was frustrating to buy a $400. card and have even a minor inconvience. Endless hours of adjusting settings did not take care of the...

    Good deal on Nex II mp3 player

    I have been shopping around for a decent mp3 player, and decided on the Nex II by Frontier Labs over the Archos 6000. I wasnt opposed to the internal HDD of the Archos and the capacity would have been great, but the prices are astronomical. The Nex II has a large following, and lots of good...

    Do you find the name "The Two Towers" offensive?

    I just read this for the first time. This is the most entertaining thread I have followed in a while, LOL. I have one question though. Is there really some question as to what Tolkien was refering to when he named the book. "There is alot of speculation as to what Tolkien meant by the title...

    Win2k Monitoring Programs

    Installed ZoneAlarm 2.6 (i think) the free version about 3 weeks ago. Pretty slick program so far. For those not familiar with the program, it just notifies you when a program is requesting information from your machine, or if a program on your machine is trying to connect to the web. My...

    To RAID or not to RAID...please see config...

    Here is my $.02. I am running Raid 0 with two maxtor 80gig ATA133's. I have only had the system up and running for about 3 weeks, but I can attest to a noticable speed difference in load times for my OS and my primary game EQ over the load times from my WD 60gig. For other games that dont...

    Broke 3 monitors - Refresh rate issue

    Welcome TJohn from one Newbie to another. I do not know what the acer monitor will support, but 120hz seems extremely high! The clicking sound is normal for the most part, most monitors click as the change resolutions. But it sounds to me like you are taking quite a jump. I would say if you...

    RAID 0 users. 16, 32, or 64 byte blocking. which is faster?

    Good call. I have decided for the small to mid sized files I will be working in, that the 16 byte stripe block will be perfect. Not too small to make small files inefficient; but big enough to make larger files load faster. I have it set up and running, and already Everquest RPG loads faster...

    RAID 0 users. 16, 32, or 64 byte blocking. which is faster?

    I have been researching the ways to configure my raid set-up. From what I have read, some people insist on using 16bit stripes instead of 32bit stripes. They claim it to be faster? And from a couple of bench marks its seems so. But, it seems to me that you would want to take full use of you...

    LSI SCSI card $179 vs. Adaptec 19160 for $185?

    I am liking the look of the Tekram. Thanks for the heads up. I am a bit worried that my 32 bit PCI slot is not a 5volt? All that I can find on the spec sheet is 2.2 volt compliant? Anybody know if Soyo Dragon Ultra will support a 5V PCI card? I am pretty sure it will, but i dont want to be...

    LSI SCSI card $179 vs. Adaptec 19160 for $185?

    THANKS DAVE :) The only specs on my Soyo board tell me it is PCI Slot 2.2 volt compliant. The Tekram card needs a 64 bit slot (which I do not have) or a 32 bit 5Volt slot (which I am not sure if I have? Is 5 volt the standard for PCI?
