[SPANKIN HOT!] free rejection line; say goodbye to someone you dislike for free [SLAMMING DEAL]

I called the Tampa one and it the recording said (heavily paraphrased): blah, blah..... you've been rejected... blah, blah.... but you can get back at them live on the radio, just leave a voicemail and if it's good enough we'll play it live on 97x. So, it seems like the line in Tampa is...

case fan and ram issue

Unless you want to mod your case, you've pretty much gotta go with whatever size fan holes are in your case. However, the larger the fan, the lower the speed required to produce a given amount of flow. So if you don't mind cutting up your case, it is ideal to slap the biggest fan possible in...

HOT?! Maxtor 60GB 7200RPM Hard Drive & ATA Card for ~$60 @ Office Depot (8/11)

I did it with the 40gig maxtor, at my B&M Office Max, and they came in separate boxes. By the way, they did accept my printed out $20 off $100 staples coupon, but they said they would not accept printed out coupons in the future.

ATI RADEON 8500 ALL IN WONDER AGP 128MB DDR (RETAIL) $255

The 8500 AIW DV (with 64MB of ram) goes for about $170 on pricewatch, but the 128MB version is about $267 for a retail version. If you just want the video in/out and PVR functions, you should just go with the 7500 AIW or even older models for a lot cheaper. The 8500 DV is faster for games...

Any way to restart to MS-dos prompt without floppy?

Making a bootable CD would probably be the easiest way, IF your bios is new enough to give you the option of booting from the CD-rom, and if you've got access to another computer with a burner and a floppy drive. With easy cd creator 3.5 (probably similar for any other burning program) you just...

What is the best RAM for a Laptop?

I don't know if it's the "best" or cheapest ram you can get for a laptop, but you could use an online vendor like www.18004memory.com that guarantees compatability if you use their memory configuration utility to select the right ram. In my case I used their configurator and it turned out to be...

Fixed!! System freezes about 10 seconds after post. Any Help?

Thanks. You guys called it... the heatsink wasn't seated properly. It turns out that since it's a low profile heatsink, it is asymetrical and you cannot install it 180 degrees off, or it will interfere with the cpu socket, and cause a small gap. That interference made it incredibly difficult...
