    PC Power Supply Upgrade?

    Hi All, Quick question for anyone who's done this. I have a great PC, but I think I've modded too much and need to upgrade the power supply. I'm assuming, anyway. The symptom I have is that when I crank up the graphics card (ATI 9700Pro) I lose signal on the monitor after a short period of time...

    Stargate Atlantis

    Well I'm surprised no one is talking about this one as the premier was tonight. Thought it was a great start. The team seemed a little stiff, but that's to be expected with a new cast and a new show. I'm really glad that they didn't take the typical out of finding the city and having to...

    Retrieving Hard Disk Data

    Howdy All, I've got a weird one that I'm hoping you can help me with. I killed my PC last weekend, so I went out and bought a new one. My problem is that I have some critical data on the old hard drives that I need to transfer over. Unfortunately, when I open the case of the new machine...

    Scientific American Frontiers w/Alan Alda

    I love this show. Was wondering if anyone might know if it is going to become available as a DVD set. I see that PBS has them available on VHS, but I don't even own a VCR anymore. Thanks

    Landmark Games...What makes em that way?

    So I got into a really interesting discussion the other day with a friend of mine about games (PC, Console, any and all) and we were trying to trace the landmark games that we remembered. The main issue was we couldn't agree on the terms of the criteria. For example, does popularity fit into...

    MS03-039 (Security Patch from Microsoft)

    For those of you that waited on the MS03-026 patch from Microsoft and were eventually infected with SoBIG.F, Nachi, or MSblast, I recommend you go get this patch (MS03-039)as soon as possible. I read on Cnet that there are already variants of these worms that may be able to take advantage of...

    Basic XP Upgrade Question.

    PatB, I should have been more clear in my statement. The upgrade to XP was on the machine that I had previous to the one I have now. I used to format and re-install W98SE every 6 months to keep the system clean. This would typically take me about 3 hours a night. At the time, I...

    The Ironic X-men - Life Mirrors Comics

    Just thought that some of you comic fans would find this as interesting as I do. X-Men Not Human! I find it funny that there would be a real life ruling on something like this. Truly Ironic. Kraig

    17" CRT vs 15" LCD

    Okay, I've started looking at LCD monitors and see that the prices jump pretty dramatically from the 15" to the 17" monitors. Currently I have a 17" CRT and am wondering if I'm going to be happy dropping to the 15" LCD. The use is mostly for gaming and DVD playback. Is this a good way to go...
