Renew XM radio subscription 50% off! $60/yr

w00t! Worked for me! The girl put me on hold for a few minutes since "the computers were being slow" so it was maybe a 7 minute phone call total. When she came back, she asked me if I had heard about the promo in a letter they I had recieved, so I said "of course..." Luckily she didn't ask...

BenQ DW822A 8x/4x DVD±RW Drive ("FREE Upgrade to Dual Layer burning") for $73.00 Shipped; NEC 8x $64; LiteOn 8x/8x $66

I got one of the DW822A's from buy.com as well. When I try to burn a Ritek DVD+R, the only option Nero gives me is 2.4X, probably because they are 2.4X discs.... But how do I force it to burn faster anyway? Thanks!

Is there a way to delay startup programs?

I was wondering if there is a way to delay when the programs in my startup group execute. It seems like I get error with a few of the programs in the startup group because windows executes them before the appropriate drivers that are needed to run the programs are loaded. For example, I have...

Need help narrowing down a video card

I think I'm going to go with a 9600 since it has DX9 and is "future-proof" as someone put it. When I searched on Pricewatch, I got 6 different versions of the 9600, and I'm a little confused. I've looked for a comparison, but have had no luck. Pricewatch lists the following versions of the...

Need help narrowing down a video card

I've been putting together a new computer and need help narrowing down a video card to purchase. I'm looking for something in the $100 price range, maybe $150 at the very most if it is an exceptional card. Of course, cards in the range must be a generation or two old, but since I haven't kept...

Barton 2500 or ...?

Most likely won't be using it for OC'ing. I'll take a look at some tutorials and such and see how easy it is to do this, and maybe I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the help again.

Barton 2500 or ...?

OK, I'm upgrading from my T-Bird 900mhz and since I don't really keep up with the CPU news, I was wondering what all the buzz about the AMD Barton 2500+ was. I'm wondering if the Barton is a good processor, or should I go with something like a Athlon XP 2600? They're about the same price, but...

Can I use dial-up with a wireless broadband router?

I read that page, and it came to the same conclusion at JackMDS, to disable the DHCP, which was enabled by default. I disabled it, tried to connect with the wirelessly connected computer, but still nothing... IE shows "detecting proxy settings" but then comes up with a page not found error...

Hmmm.. I can't seem to find any options that let me disable NAT... I don't know why it isn't an option, but could it be listed as something else?
