    Weird HDD problem...

    Built myself a new computer awhile back - nothing fancy. One thing I neglected to do, however, was back up a lot of things I'd like (nothing immediately important, but still). So, rather than going back and doing it, the obvious solution is to pilfer the HDDs from the old PC (which is now...

    OK, the computer gods hate me...

    I bought this board to replace an Asus P4P800 that wouldn't run either ;) I'll try some cheapo DDR RAM later today to see if it changes anything.

    if I had any other DDR RAM to try, I would but I'm hesitant to start buying parts just to see if it works

    OK, the computer gods hate me...

    I've been through so many fucking parts trying to get this thing to even show up on a monitor that I can't even find the manuals any more. If you're in Houston and you want to earn some cash - get this box to work. I don't care what you have to RMA, get this stupid fucking box to work, with my...

    OK, the computer gods hate me...

    Tried 2 different vid cards - 1 PCI, 1 AGP Still gives me the same fucking error :mad: And I can't find the goddamn manual, so I can't figure out what that error means! A single long POST beep, repeating, nothing on the monitor. Is there a service that will take a PC, RMA whatever...

    OK, the computer gods hate me...

    I've been trying to build a new box for some time now. It shouldn't be this hard. I've been through a CPU. I've replaced the motherboard. I've double checked the RAM to make sure it's OK. And *nothing* works, I swear - I am not meant to own a new computer. After receiving the...

    Help me build a budget system for under $300

    You could put a post in the FS/T forum here, seeing if anyone has enough stuff for sale for cheap to bolt something together - or something already working.

    Need Help Badly!! How to remove a heatsink that has been glued with arctic epoxy?

    Have you tried e-mailing arctic silver to see what they recommend?

    Good computer manufactuerer?

    OK, let's examine the issue: First, you need to establish a budget. $500? $1000? $2000? If under $1000, that basically rules out anything but a barebones or Dell. You also need to let us know what you already have: Monitor? Keyboard? Mouse? You've been pretty vague so far. Here's...

    ups should die

    Here's another fun tidbit on UPS: Company policy is to refuse insurance claims, no matter what. I had a car part valued and insured at a little under $200 shipped to me a very delicate part (a body panel). Because of the nature of the part, any damage whatsoever would cost more to fix than...
