Did you guys know Al Gore invented the internet?

:P

well.... im sure the images will be cached and after you have seen a majority of the recent posts most members' avatars should be cahced so you wont have to (1) waste bandwidth (2) waste time, but you might have to (3) put up with tannin's silly animations.

i actually like the theme

oh... i was under the impression that you were getting disconencted when idle.... I'm wondering.... did you go from the old PC to the new pc and only then see problems? Did you try re-hooking the DSL up to the old pc for a day or so AFTER you noticed the problems? I just want to rule out...

i have to laugh every time I read that song.... i'm glad the budget solution turned out to be the best.

I'm sorry I missed out on the original n'Force boards... I would really be interested in buying an nForce2 board.

And only ~40% faster than the 9700.....

how big do you want it? I think the size limit is an attempt at keeping the site readable. If someone is using an avatar that is excessively large it might throw off the rest of the page. I believe the on site avatars limit is 80x80, howeer you can host your own avatar off-site that is...

typically it only matters when you ahve more than 1 speaker of the same sound range. One speaker is moving out while the other is moving in and you will compete with each other. Hence, one is out of phase. However, if you have 1 speaker like a sub woofer, that is producing sound lower than the...

I said 10 years. I agree with tannin, IMO we it will be a non-issue because we will be using some other type of storage. So, i estimate in perhaps 10 years we will have finally moved on to something bigger and better, hopefully solid-state, that does not rely on LBA 48.

the kt400 should have perfect USB ports (AFAIK).... the VIA usb problems were with a much older version.... you're new setup seems fine... nice computer. What I would suggest to you is to call your ISP and ask for a new DSL modem, one which supports Ethernet. Barring that, you may find...

that is od... why would the transfer rate almost exactly halve itself at the 15gb mark? and since you say it seems to change... 18bg mark now? it almost does sound like the drive is having to read each part twice....

1) I don't think the polarity really matters( or even applies) since all audio speakers use AC and not DC.. so the polarity is chaning constantly and if you only use 1 sub it probably dosen't matter.... However, if the output from your reciever is a single RCA output, the inner wire is usually...

i guess it would be in the credits at the very end... maybe if someone is going to see the movie they could keep an eye open for you ;)

I would tend to believe in the keep-alive thought... My recomendation for internet conenctions is to always choose a 10/100 NIC over USB unless absolutely unavoidable. It is possible that there is something finicky about your friends USB controllers... what kind of controller/mobo is your...

is that part of the 100% satisfaction guarantee? ring...ring... WD Rep: WD supp, this is <insert name here> how my I help you? Blake: Yes, I am an owner of an aging WD hard drive that I would like to return. WD Rep: Can you tell me what is wrong with the drive? Blake: Well... im only 60%...

heh, we just finished our group projects and I still have another month till this project is due... We did very well on our presentation today and I'm feeling pretty good right now.

The only RAID 0 issues I've heard are coming from seagate barracuda ATA IV's performing below expectations... all other IDE drives, as far as I know, work fine in raid 0, 1, and 5.

I'd say either the 7 or the 9 would be fine... if you want to control fan speeds get the 7+ or the 9. I don't know if you're concerned about weight.. i cant find the specs on the thermaltake website.. but the volcano 7 is AMD recommended.. the volcano 9 is probably too new to have been tested.

There was alot of problems with the geforce and geforce 2 MX series because many manufacturers used sub par (below what nvidia recommended) components in their designs... this was to cut corners on a low-end product obviously. When you buy Matrox, you know it was built by matrox, a good...

wow... sounds dangerous... I have also heard that you can do a much simply process to fix a dead bios.... It involved putting the BIOS file on a floppy with a special name... "AMIBIOS" I think was what the name... I can't find any specific details at the moment, but a few other sites seem to...

I assume you're using the latest firmware clocker? Like I said, I remember hearing alot about problems with the 1st few releases of the 604's firmware. not exactly what you're looking for... but close. ftp://ftp2.dlink.com/Gateway/di604/Firmware/

But like I said, Nvidia producers vary a great deal. So, I suggest Tannin test the cards out. If he finds them acceptable, then he should sell them. This is my opinion and I will be happy to know that you paid twice as much for your matrox than I did for my TNT and I ended up with the better...

*hotter running the desktop than if playing a 3D game.

Trust me, my g400 dual head gets too hot to touch. My TNT2 M64 is barely warm to the touch after hours of quake 3... same computer, same everything... Infact, I find that alot of cards are actually hot just running the desktop than playing a 3D game.

Nope, I was wrong. It's actually $20. ...$10 and $15 rebates are good till 23rd and Jan 13th respectively.

Personally, I think the price is a little high. the Dlink 604 (this is the model you used to replace the smc, yes?) is on sale for $22 from Amazon.com... one of the rebates might be expired by now, so lets say $33.

All kids love Speeze! What rolls down stairs, Alone or in pairs, Rolls over your neighbours cheese? What's great for a snack, And fits on your back, It's Speeze..Speeze..Speeze!! It's Spe-eze, Spe-eze It's big, it's heavy It's Cheese! It's Spe-eze, Spe-eze It's better than bad It's good...

I didnt know either of those were games.... I have played warcraft III if that's considered a strategy game... I liked it. At a LAN party we played it for about 4 hours.

oh, i like that... and + symbols included too.... i want that on my next motherboard..... sign me up big boy!

I have a matrox millenium, a matrox g400 dual head, an ATI rage IIc, TNT 2 M64, and a Leadtek geforce 3 ti 200 The geforce 3 has better image quality than all of them. The TNT2 is next, with the G400 just slightly behind and the ATI is last. I have not run the millenium above 800x600 so I...

bump

I don't really like that article.... It is decent, however, They should have a lower low end system.... Duron 1.3, 256MB of PC2700..... that sounds midrange to me... a low end would be more like PIII 600 with 128MB SDRAM That way we could see how performance is affected in low memory...

lol

you guys are cruel... you know what I meant... 7200 times a minute... or approx 120 times a second.

Actually, I kind of like to imagine that the bacterium would take a spin on platters and jump the head as it comes by. ...kinda like jump rope. ... from the reference point of the platters, the head does come by.... 7200 times a second on my drives. -That a fast jumping bacteria

good point tea. Yes, good start... but keep in mind this is not even a completed rough draft as of yet. I haven't really started writing anything past section 3... all I have are some rough brainstorming notes...

Hey dudes, I'm working on a project for technical writing class. I'm making a guide on how to treat your hdd's nicely ;) http://harddrive.howto.dns2go.com check out what I have so far and tell me what you think, ok? gtg, enrollment is starting.. I look forward to your opinions when I get back.

oh, and do you have the original box, packaging, reciept kind of stuff?

what model number is it, and how much are you looking for clocker?

i would have voted yes... but the poll is over

I was just reading through some hitachi hdd data. They compare the distance between a hdd platters and it's reading heads to various other objects.... They give an example of an Jet airliner having to fly 1 inch above the surface of the Earth. This exerpt shows that a mere finger print smudge...

heh, that's too bad that most browsers use randomly assigned port numbers for outbound connections... i believe they always use above 3000... or was it 2000? maybe I'll have to refresh myself.

lol, that thing is on ebay? hahah

Mustafa, how about this avatar? I believe it is part of the hyrogliphic that explains how the Egyptian God anubus came to be.

i have a couple of those hard drives they shot
