im glad the air smells nice here. I can't even imagine what it would be like to live somewhere where the air constantly smelled like smog.. exhaust...etc...

As far as I know all T-bred rev. B are multiplier unlocked by default... All Intel chips since maybe the pMMX have been multiplier locked... I have read some stuff about doing hard mods to the CPU's (such as cliping pins, soldering on resistors, or shorting pins) that will do various things to...

Can't you just bump up the multiplier in the BIOS (assuming your mobo supports it)? I thought t-breds are unlocked.

Yes, I agree that USB2 is becoming more important.. and like you I can forgive it now... simply because most people looking for a bargain computer are probably using USB1 devices like printer, scanner, or maybe a digital camera... but probably dont have an external hard drive or DV camera where...

What do you guys think is the best bargain motherboard available right now? what about in 6 months? I'm wondering what people think constitutes a "bargain" board... price, features, upgradability, etc... and what motherboards fit that definition. Personally, I have thought for a few months...

yes, it was particularly sluggish this afternoon and then suddenly cleared up.. but alas, it is again slow like the molasses at the bottom of an empty molasses jar... that once contained molasses.... molasses....

I honestly dont know where you can get them in Canada, you'll have to search. The guy I know said he had two good options one was the FalconRock (original) and the other was something like a Vantec Aeroflow.. he said cost of each was in the $40CAN range and the Vantec had less "sucking noise"...

i thought SIIG made cards, while siliconImage made IC's... meaning that you could get a SIIG branded card that used a siliconImage controller...

thanks for the heads up, I'm sure a DVD burner is in some of our not too distant futures.

I just bought another whisperRock III.. How do you think these two compare? noise, cooling, etc. Is the microflow taller or shorter than the whipserRock?

must fold faster

I chose: 30ms access, 40K STR, 1000GB, $1200 Less reliablity but it was half the cost of the single 2TB drive I guess it all depends on the performance needs and whether or not you require high availability/backups....

plus, I'm sure some space is wasted by the file system...

and can you inlcude an option to scale all images so they fill the screen... while keeping aspect ratio

i'd like to be able to set the number of seconds using the keyboard as well as the arrows

getright :P Jtr, if you were to go the cable route, I got road runner.. it seems a couple years ago... they offer a "DIY" installation so you don't have to pay any install fees, plus you know it's done right. They also regularly offer specials like 1/2 price for first 3 months, etc...

somehow i expect it to be comparable to their current ATA /ATA RAID products, the only difference being that it has a SATA interface. I haven't researched it, this is just my gut feeling. Better than bottom of the barrell at the premium price that adaptec is known for

I couldn't find the command set specific to your modem (im used to dealing w/ software modems) but here is some general AT command set info http://www.modems.com/general/extendat.html If you have win98 or above use hyperterminal(hypertrm.exe) and test some of the commands out on your modem...

use getright, it's a downlaod manager that supports resuming and works wonderfully. Free 30 day trial. Your speed is probably the problem... drop down a notch or two from where you're connecting and you'll probably run just fine (48000 -> 42000 or 42000 -> 36600...) Tell me what modem you...

I saw that, but figured it was for overclocking a 333 CPU... since I handn't seen a 333 on the roadmap(until now).

i thought kt400 was supposed to be the last... then they release 400a... im almost sceptical about a 600 now... and why the name format change? wouldn't it support 600mHz RAM following the standard Via convection that's been in place for the last several years?

maybe I've just gotten the bad ones... MY case came with two, both died within 1 year... I also got 2 with a athlon slot A heatsink... they both died as well... They are a trusted brand name, but from my personal experience they haven't performed very well at all.

Personally, I've found Sunons to be short lived... they usually seem tpo die after a year if I'm lucky... Panflo and Nidek have been good to me, I have several of these fans that have lasted over 10 years... Panflo is known for quality and quiet operation. I've been happy with Panflo, Antec...

No. kt266 and kt266a were also designed to use SDRAM. The kt266a seems to be ~10% faster than the 266, and I would think the same would be true for a kt133 -> kt266... No doubt in my mind that the 266a is atleast as fast or faster than the 133a... not sure how the non-A varients fair.

The A is a new product... used to identify that the board uses the kt266a (I have done visual inspection) instead of the plain kt266. I'm off to microcenter anyway to pick up supplies... I'll take a look when I'm there.

I forget how many degrees above case tems my cooler keeps my CPU... but it's aprox 20 F (Palomino 1700+) The Palomino is an Athlon model 6 while the Duron 1.1 is a model 7... both use the same voltage, but the Durons are spec'd to run a bit cooler. So as long as your case temps aren't hitting...

Every freaking store I look at shows the ak32A to have 2 DDR and 2 SDR slots... Both in the specs and in the pics. I think you must be mistaken Merc. ...or perhaps you got some weird kind of board.

Next time im at microcenter I'll check, shuttle's website is known to be wrong on occasion, but i dont think newegg.com's pics plus cust comments would be.

I put it in neutral all the time when coming to a light or stop... i find it easier than downshifting and then having to down shift again or whatever the situation calls for... but I always use the clutch... I'm not an experienced manual driver, I learned on an auto and I drive an auto... so I...

also, read the cust. comments, they specifically indicate that they purchased an ak32a and used SDRAM...

Iit has two.... according to shuttle's website and newegg.com's pics of the board.

The AK32L is a Via kt266.. the AK32A is its direct replacement, and sports a shiney new kt266a northbridge (same 8233 southbridge) The ak32A should cost the same as its predecessor. The board comes with Via AC97 audio (dont use shuttle's drivers cause they are 2 or 3 years old and suck...

I think the laptops based on the Centrino system are simply amazing... I think that SFF and fanless computers could benefit a great deal fomr the use of one of these Pentium M CPU's as well. Intel is clearly ahead of *everyone* with this product

I was young and wreckless

i once got my '93 camry upto 123mph (in a 55).. but after that it's like it suddenly ran out of steam... maybe some type of RPM limiter?

The cable I was using was double keyed(unlike the one pictured)... but I must have tried to insert it in backwards at one point or another (it's sometimes hard to tell because you don't have a noticeable red stripe on rounded cables) The pin that was pushed in was just so about 1/8th of an...

that poor LG 8160B.... the first burner to burn 99 minute discs.... luckilly LG's burners still use the same LED and button placement... get any LG model burner and it's face plate will fit... (you may have to goto a single button design) I put the face plate of my GCC-4320B 16xDVD/32x10x40...

do you guys remember when moz was called seamonkey? did you ever use seamonkey? I did... back on milestone 13 I think...

lol... I try not to jump into asking for help too fast, I had already played around for about 2 hours trying to get ghost working... (3 or 4 ghosts) after that, I gave up on ghost... and I did the repair(what does that take? 30 min?) and spent about another 15 minutes setting up drivers for...

phew.. i thought my drive wa busted... but aparently in the ghosting I must have unplugged the IDE cable and when I put it back on the DVD drive it pushed the pin in towards the drive... I'm glad that's over... now my gf wont be mad at me for messing with the computer needlessly.

One thing I liked about the design is that it used the case as a heatsink to exhaust excess heat... have you seen the fanless PSU's... they have a heatsink on the exterior of the case (mounted where the PSU fan would normally be located) I think it's JTR who keeps mentioning that he would like...

jeepers creeepers... Hmm aparently the LiteOn DVD drive is the entire source of the problems... The DVD drive has the same problem in a PIII 440BX... i got to looking at the pins and noticed one of them was pushed in... i used some pliers to pull it back out (lol)... ima gonna test it

lol, after I wrote this I realized that since the repair the HDD has only worked when the DVD (LiteOn ltd122)was in PIO mode, so I set it to PIO from UDMA 2.... the HDD seems to be working.... but now I have to figure out how to get my burner and my dvd working correctly... maybe if I put both...

hey, I got fed up with the noise from my 800JB (even thoug it was sandwiched) and went to my 180gxp that I recently aquired... i tried to do a ghost dirve->drive copy but it resulted in a non-bootable machine (i even tried sector->sector copy)... booting safe mode showed that the boot process...

yeah, i tried simply setting the "increase font to 120%" option in moz, then tried messing w/ the DPI... then tried changing the standard font sizes for variable and fixed width fonts as well as the "min font sise" setting... I think that's basically it... AFAIK... I am using a combination of...

is there a good way to adjust font sizes in Linux web browsing? ...it seems like every route I take has some flaw... and only works on some pages or parts of pages...

150/170Watt fanless PSU with 85% efficiency typical and upto 97%! totally fanless(watercooled) system with side sinks on the case. http://www.whisperpc.co.uk/default.htm Reviews: http://www.whisperpc.co.uk/reviews/inquirer.pdf http://www.whisperpc.co.uk/reviews/ct_signum_engl.pdf

last time i tried to update my MMC (above 7.6 beta) it wouldn't install... stupid TV wonder... atleast the beta is working for me on this install of winXP

They seem to have put it back on the 8rda+'s compatibility list...
