    External HDMI Display

    The display on the laptop does not work unless the computer has booted in Windows. However, that is not good as there is no way to select boot device, otherwise access the BIOS, or to use amy utilities. Is this just some Windows bullsh*t or a crappy BIOS support?

    Oh. I don't normally watch that channel where they jump off of bridges or planes, whatever. Going 128km into space is a rather crazy stunt, but I guess they have oxygen.

    Monumental XT

    Does anyone have the current 750GB XT drive? Since receiving the new ultraportable laptop with decent CPU, the sluggishness of the 1TB 5400 rpm drive is more apparent. :( I can usually live with a smallish drive in NA.

    Corsair SSD simultaneous failure

    I have a couple of the old Force 60 drives. I just decommissioned them over the weekend, and was testing one in the Lenovo last nightmare . Other than some reallocated sectors they are just fine.

    question All-in-One PC or Other Options

    That's what I suspect, but I'm not sure that it is not needed. I prefer to back up the first two partitions with Acronis.

    question All-in-One PC or Other Options

    I received the leonvo. The HD partitioning is odd. There is the annoying 200MB win 7 partition, then c:, followed by a hidden EISA partition.

    I'm not set up for that now. Has anyone had any problems with the Samsung SSD returns?

    PC not booting :(

    1600 is fine. Any decent intel- based board should handle 4*4GB if RAM is not overclocked.

    Warranty Void?

    I received a Samsung SSD and the box has the security label indicating "WARRANTY VOID IF REMOVED." So how am I supposed to use this drive, if merely opening the box will void the warranty? That is utter BS. :cursin:

    Meh. Anything under 5 is just a little vibration. By 6 you stagger a bit, but it's not too dangerous unless you are especially unlucky. When it reaches around 7 and the walls are shaking, objects and broken glass are flying, your spine and balls are getting hammered, etc., it is not a good day.

    Why is 1080 a problem for 2D? I'm not sure that I use 3D unless videos need it. However, I want 1200 pixels high to match the monitor. Does HDMI not support 1200 pixels?

    The sores indicate HD4000 graphics in this laptop. Is that on the motherboard or on the CPU? I assume it is very weak, but can I use an external 1920*1200 monitor with good results through the HDMI port?

    Another mass build and some hardware thoughts

    It may be adequate, but 120/128 is cheap now. The smaller size will experience reduced write performance and longevity.

    My Toshiba laptop's HDD Protection program keeps getting disabled

    A major problem is that SSDs are trying to emulate hard drives. Although there has been some progress, the traditional SATA interface should go or be revised significantly.

    He has the 24-70/2.8. Why go backwards to the 24-105? If anything, perhaps get the new 24-70. For the studio, money would be better spent on a prime, such as a 35, 50, 85, macro or TSE.
