    Mac Mini Duo poor WiFi

    Has anyone else noticed a very poor WiFi reception with their new Mac Mini Intel? I first thought it might be my Samba connection to my Linux box, but I have tried NFS. It is so bad I can not even stream videos. I even noticed iTunes stutter when I streamed a library from my WinXP box. Oh...

    LP Gigabit NIC Card

    Thanks, that will work perfect. I guess it is better to actually look at the pictures to see if they come with LP brackets.

    A8N-SLI Deluxe BIOS causing poor OC?

    When I first got the board I think it was running bios 1002. I was able to get my CPU to 9x285 fairly stable. It would only crash in HL2 every once and awhile. I have upgraded to various BIOS and it seems like my OC has been falling with each flash. I was running the 1011 BIOS 9x250 with 1:1...

    LP Gigabit NIC Card

    Anyone know where I can get a LP Gigabit NIC card at a decent price? The only one I find is the is 25 packs of 3Com. I was going to reuse my AMD 64 3000+ 939 on a mATX but there seems to be a lack of onboard gigabit boards. I guess I can sell the CPU and grab an Intel P4. This is for linux...

    Quiet down my hard drive

    I have a Coolermaster Stacker case. It has a 5 1/4" to 3 1/2" drive bay converter that converts 3 5 1/4" to 4 3 1/2" IT also has some rubber shock mounts on it to quiet down hard drives you mount in there. My problem is I did not want to use all three 5 1/4" bays so I removed the converter...

    Asus A8N-SLI/D bios tweek recommendations

    To get the Plextor drive to work on the nVidia SATA you must not install the nVidia IDE drivers. If you do then windows will stop seeing the drive. It should look like this NOTE: I have the Silicon Vallay SATA disabled

    Need active cooling on 6800GT Ram?

    Thanks, selling my 6800N for around $300 and buying a 6800GT for $360 sounds much better then buying a second 6800NU for $330.

    Need active cooling on 6800GT Ram?

    I currently am running a 6800NU in my water cooled computer. The 6800NU does not run that hot so I just replaced the fan with a waterblock and through on some ramsinks for the memory. I am now getting an itch to upgrade, and it makes more sense to sell the 6800NU and pickup a 6800GT instead...

    Copy Protection: The rant

    The funniest one I remeber is Eye of the Beholder. It did not ask you about it until you went to the second level. Darksun also did that. It always made borrowing a friends copy fun. I remember kids at school photo coping the Dune 2 manual so they could play it. I just loved all the SSI...

    Are there any SATA DVD/CD-ROMS's that work w/ AMD MB's?

    They are the ones installed by Microsoft. To get them just go and remove the nVidia IDE controller in your device manager. Next time you reboot your system will come up and say it has detected a new IDE controller along with your drives. You should then be using the non-nVidia drivers at that...

    Cm Stacker top PSU cage

    So you want to do this? I had to chop off the back half of the cage and use screws to secure it to the back of the case. The best bet is to us a drill to drill out the holes.

    Are there any SATA DVD/CD-ROMS's that work w/ AMD MB's?

    My MSI XA52P worked just fine on my Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe. So does my Plextor 716SA. They did stop working when I installed the nVidia IDE drivers. If you run the native drivers you should be fine. Hint if you can boot of the drive it is a driver problem. If you can not then more then likely...
