Any CSS gurus here? Help badly needed.

Ok, maybe someone here can help me solve my problem. I am setting up my personal site using CSS in a three column layout. I had everything looking good in IE6 and Opera, but of course IE5.x had issues with column width etc. I found solutions at bluerobot.com and glish.com. So last night I...

Bad mainboard eating my RAM?

I have the notorious ASUS A7V133 motherboard with 128MB SDRAM. For the third time, I started having problems again after replacing RAM that has gone bad. I figured that I had just got a bad lot of RAM or something, but now I think something is screwed up with this board. I test the RAM each time...

I (and XP Pro) saved the wrong network password!

I log into the network at work and sometimes I have to log into a separate server to access remote files. Usually I log into this using the server administrator account. Yesterday when I did this I accidentally checked the "Remember Password" option. Now everytime I try to connect to that server...

CRT or LCD?

I am in the processes of putting together a computer for a family member and had a question about the monitor. As a college student, his desk space is limited. However, he plays games (Diablo, Starcraft, nothing First Person Shooter though) and I want something that will perform well. Should I...

Whoa! Is my CPU too hot.

I put a 80mm fan in the back to suck out some of that hot air. Now the temp at idle with the case closed is 53c, and about 56c under full load. Good for now, but I want to get a little closer to 50c.

Whoa! Is my CPU too hot.

I picked up a XP 1600+ during the Newegg sale and installed it the other day. I noticed that in the temp readouts in the BIOS (as well as Motherboard Monitor) the my CPU temp hovers at about 59c...when I'm not doing anything. No overclocking. I got the Glacialtech fan that I saw recommended, but...

I love my new Ti4200!!! What a difference!

I received my new Gainward Ti4200 128MB yesterday, along with my XP 1600+ processor. The install was flawless. The 2d quality is perfect. The 3D quality is wonderful. I'm not a hardcore gamer and I have never had a card that cost over $100 (been using a ATI Rage Fury 128 for the past 3 years). I...

Gainward drivers screwing up GameSpy???

No, overclocking and the latest bios on the mobo. I browsed the gamespy arcade message boards and it seems they are having issues with the sound settings in Americas Army conflicting with their software. Turn out that I haven't tried to use it since i installed that game. This may explain why it...

Gainward drivers screwing up GameSpy???

I recieved and installed my new Gainward T14200 128MB with the newest stable drivers from thier site today. I tried to run GameSpy to play some MOH:AA, but it locked up after I logged in. Nothing has changed on the system, and everything else seems fine. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the...

Hardware or Software Issue?

While I though about i being the PS also, it looks like it was just Win98 crapping out. I slapped my old XP RC1 copy just to test things out. Runs without a hitch, and its a damn beta version of XP. RTCW played and installed great. I'm running some burn in tests now to check the stability at...

Hardware or Software Issue?

Someone droped off their home PC today at work and asked me to take a look at it. Since they know I charge extra for this, I said ok. They had just built a new PC: MSI KT3 Ultra, AMD Processor, DDR, SB Live, GeForce4 4400 etc and well Win98. The problem they are having has stumped me. I have...

Is NT 4.0 Server obsolete?

I don't think support 'officially' stops until July of next year, but of coarse they are not pushing it anymore. It kind of sucks for the place I work because we want a copy for a backup server but can't get it ( I don't think) under academic open. Our servers are simple and have no need to...

What program keeps you from being a full time linux user?

- Games - The fact I have to install TTF (and sometimes they still don't work in the OpenOffice etc). I know its not a big deal to others, but the default fonts make my eyes bleed. - Some other misc programs that don't work Other than that, I like Mandrake 8.2 and hope to use it more.

Warm? STRANGE? Lindows PCs at WalMart starting at $299

Ok, so the Lindows is put on the machine for free (e.g. you aren't 'charged' for it). I was thinking if Lindows costs $99 OEM and so does Windows why not just get windows?
