Looks like the build DD is thinking about, analogy wise. Appears to be a 8-71 Jimmy blower, which is usually put on a big block, 427 or bigger, Chevy. Means the entire car has to be pretty much a funny car. Wonder if they used NO2 as well?

tested the USB port on the 4200. It works with single drives, like thumb drives. It doesn't work with my toaster. Not a big deal, but, just another minor pain.

New TP antenna N model came in. Hooked it up USB. I'm getting 40 Mbps down, nearly 10 up. Pulled the G adapter. Now have an open PCI slot.

Chewy: Bought a 615N. That works, though it was about a 10 dollar waste over the 610N, maybe. Appears to be the same card, but with more memory. It works. Hooked up both computers and the printer on my cheap little switch, and it's fine, except one of the cards doesn't seem to like to get an IP...

Update. The wireless worked for awhile. Around 18 Mbps, with WPA2. For some reason, it's stopped working with WPA2 on, and will only work with no security enabled. Then it works really slow: 6-10 Mbps. Network discovery also takes a very long time. My wireless network doesn't show up anymore on...

msn.com is horrible, both adds loading, and stupid Flash stuff. I should probably install Peerblock to get rid of a lot of that stuff. THIS site actually loads VERY quickly, given the increase in bandwidth. Greg is going to other room to install Peerblock...

Sounds like fun. Nice shot.

I just looked at mine, and, it really sucks. 204 MS or something very high like that. Still getting 70Mbps on the Cat 6.

None of this is going away. The IRS is FAR too powerful, and entrenched in the American system. The system employees a large number of people, both the IRS and accountants, tax lawyers etc. I have little doubt that those groups are powerful enough to stop any real change in the system.

Just finished watching Soul Surfer. True story about Bethany Hamilton. Ms. Hamilton lost an arm to a tiger shark, yet came back, surfed as a pro, and has towed into Jaws, some of the biggest waves on the planet. Acting is ok. Film work is horrible. Constant cutting, failing to show any...

Sam: There is only one or two wireless devices on at the same time. The machines I spend 99.5% of my time on are both Cat 6. The main reason for the new router was the 54G Linksys was limiting the WIRED connections to around 45-48 Mbps. That is noticeable vs.80-120 Mbps. Also, despite your...

X-Men First Class- Enjoyed this movie. Jennifer Lawerence was beautiful and good/bad as Mystique. While she may not get another Oscar nomination for this role, she did an excellent job of acting. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm235911680/nm2225369 January Jones is pretty stunning as the White Queen...

Maxburn: Your DSN server has me a bit baffled. I had astound change my DSN server to a google DSN at one point, because their DSN sucked.

I own a drill, just not the proper bit for this sort of thing;-) Sam: I googled protocol overhead. Can't make the connection between premise and conclusion yet: 802.11 and biggest load of crap ever? Might be I drank rum last night for the first time in a LONG time...;-(

Cons: Touchpad sensitivity is inconsistent and is located in an off-center, slightly awkward position (Not used for gaming so this didn't matter to me) Low stock clock speed on the APU (1.5ghz but overclocks itself to 2.4ghz as needed) Lenovo US Lenovo@enews.lenovo.com Employee Pricing Sale...

Concord, CA.

Bought one. Excellent router. Running both the server and the Beast off it, wired, CAT 6. Consistent 70Mbps down, 4-8Mbps up. 120 Mbps top bursts. The laptop with the N adapter just ran 52 mbps, and 8mbps upload, sitting on top of the other computer, in the living room. So, a better adapter for...

Funny, but I had the same thought. I was sitting here wondering why and what Bill Gates is going to do with 56 BILLION dollars. I was also thinking about the incredible amount of money we have funneled into the middle east for oil, where it is kept in the hands of a few ultra-rich people. Those...

It's actually kind of funny. If you look back in history of the US taxes, there have been times when the tax rate for a married couple was 90%. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_tax_in_the_United_States Some of the 50's tax rates: 92%??? for 250k married. Anyway, the government can revert to...

An N adapter in a very old Panasonic laptop gave me 80 mbps, at close range. I'm going to try a long USB 2 cable, and a N adapter first. They are cheap. The card in the other room is G only. It doesn't appear to be a very good card, either. Ethernet cable would require a hole in the wall then...

"Stream of consciousness may refer to: * Ostensibly unedited, spontaneous live or recorded performances, as in film, music, and dramatic and comic monologues, intended to recreate the raw experience of the person portrayed or the performer * Stream of consciousness (narrative mode), a...

Today the new JetDirect 615N came in. It's identical to the 600 and 610, but has more memory on the card, according to the HP website. It installed, said it was ready, but, I couldn't get it to hold an IP address consistently. At first I thought the Modem might be set to limit connected...

I think this is it. http://rules.house.gov/Media/file/PDF_112_1/Floor_Text/DEBT_016_xml.pdf A "Budget Control Act that raises the debt ceiling. OK, maybe that is a REAL oxymoron...

Here is a slightly different take on todays' events: "From: Reince Priebus, RNC Chairman To: S......... Subject: YOU Stopped the Obama Tax & Borrow Bailout Dear Gregory, Do you remember where America was just one year ago? The Pelosi-Reid-Obama agenda was doing a daily dose of damage to our...

My uncle was the head of Caltrans for years before he died. After he retired, he was hired back as a consultant at twice his rate of pay by his buddies. Was he good? Yes, he had a photographic memory and graduated from Stanford, an engineer. He would work up until he hit about 76K between...

Nod32. I think DD uses it as well.

That should be one of the functions of government: To make sure that there are choices, not monopolies.

Our governments' basic purpose was to provide a skeleton regulation system, to allow free enterprise. The concepts of a limited central government, with states rights has been run over by various political issues that allowed the Federal government to have powers to which they are not entitled...

This is at the core of it: "A second important step would be to prohibit any new regulations, and to get rid of as many useless or counterproductive government mandates as possible. Regulations prevent economic activity that otherwise would take place. And although many are aimed at helping the...

Bernard Madoff has been the financial consultant for Congress for the last 50 years. They make him look like a nickel and dime store thief.

"I haven't look at your government's budget either, but I'm pretty sure the budget allowance to occupy/invade other countries is a lot higher than the enveloppe for humanitary help. I would be very surprised if the war in Irak didn't cost more money than the food and reconstruction help sent by...

I should know better, but here goes. First off: Having been in public schools for 10 years, I can from my experience, tell you it's a system that mirrors our government. One quick example: The miserable excuse for a Superintendent employed a media person to represent her, using the school...

I guess you miss the importance of some of this vintage crap;-) I have two perfectly good laser printers that currently only connect by the old type cables. I'm sorry, but I don't throw away working Laser printers with good cartridges. The 4000N is currently connected to the server, since it's...

To be more percise: Newegg wants 5 bucks to restock the ram, even though it cost 32.00. Plus shipping, probably better to ebay it. And I am the proud owner of 4 gigs of Corsair and Patriot ram, lifetime warranty, same timing, that I can only use one gig at a time, in addition to this 2 gig...

Chewy said: "PS. I don't know how Corsair do they RAM model numbering, but with Kingston Sitcks, in the code there will be S, D or Q in the model after the speed, and this denotes Single Rank, Dual Rank or Quad Rank. for example in my old Opteron box, I had: KVR333S4R3A/512M. The S after the...

Anyone care to explain why the Kingston ram has the slot cut in a different point? It won't even go into the motherboard.

I wish;-(

http://www.billabongpro.com/jbay11/live-gb/ going on now...Jbay.

From your post, it's the only ram that would give 2 gigs, and, fit your posts notations. Thanks for the link, but, if this doesn't work, I'm living with 1 gig of ram in this HTPC. It seems enough for what I'm trying to do with it.

per Chewy's writing, ordered this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134181

1 and 3 work with single stick. No dual combinations work, with the Corsair ram. I bought two used cpu's, for cheap. Both work. They are the 3200+ David currently had in the Asus motherboard, and, the 3800+ that is running fine on the GA K8N Pro Sli, in the other room. David has the Asus...

It plays Quake 4 with a gig of ram fine, at Ultra High settings. Suspect the 2 gigs of vram help with that. Doesn't seem to max out the cpu, much, either.

Rude, but thank you. That explains a bit. Odd that's it's not my confusion, since Kingston lists the 2.6v for a dual channel kit, intended for the GA K8N Pro. I guess they know it's not going to work as dual channel?

It gets better. When I use the Kingston wizard, it recommends ram that runs at 2.6v??!! So, Chewy's reference goes to ram that runs at 1.8V, using his numbering sequence, and, is available for 33.00 for 2 gigs. The Kingston Wizard recommends memory running at 2.6v, and costs 105.00.

The recommended Kingston memory is running at 1.8v. The Ram I've been using for 6 years, and, the Corsair is at 2.5 v. The bios only allows a .01 and .02 increase in voltage. The manual, etc. list "Normal" as the stock voltage but, don't tell you what "Normal" is. Neither does the manual.

GA K8N Pro Sli F7. If Chewy is right, and I have little doubt that he is, this becomes a bit more complicated then just matching the ram package that ran fine in the machine for nearly 6 years.

DELIGHTED TO SEE GARY IS BACK AND POSTING. That's the best present ever. Splash forever:-)

Try their 'list' and see what you come up with...

The timing on the new ram is the same as the old, hoping to go for 4 gigs of ram, after the RMA from Patriot.

Yes, no joy. It might be it's better with slower ram. Don't know...
