GM 24 Hour Test Drive

Just did this last week on a Cad CTS with the sport package. They sent me a letter offering, so I took them up. No credit check, no hassle when I brought it back. The CTS was a nice, tight car, but I am waiting on the CTS-Vtech that comes out late this year with the LS6 motor and six-speed...

Is this possible? Set up a computer camera to act as a security camera?

We had a problem at work with someone from the night cleaning crew using one of the computers that needs to stay on 24/7 to visit hardcore porn sites. We hid a web cam inside an old electric pencil sharpener, put it on the shelf over/behind the monitor, and using motion detecting software, we...

XP and SCSI

I have never had success with the Diamond Fireport 40 and "native" XP drivers, but I have gotten them to work just fine using the W2K drivers.

Chrysler Prowler = POS

My Corvette goes plenty fast enough to dry off what was attracted and got wet, and at the same time could tow a Prowler with it's brakes locked!

Asus iPanel

I have the base iPanel, and it works fine. Gives you basic info on what's going on inside the computer, has a couple of extra USB ports, and fills up that extra bay I had. For $20 bucks it's a pretty nice little addition. Of course, you do have to have an ASUS board, and I think there are...

Anyone have a WESTERN DIGITAL "SPECIAL EDITION" 80GB 7200RPM

I have two 100gb WD Special Edition drives, both in ASUS P4B266-C boards, both with P4 1.6a CPUs, one running at 133 FSB and the other at 140 FSB, and neither have given the slightest problem.

tire and rim sizes

215 is width of tire in mm, 45 is the aspect ratio (width to sidewall height) and 17 is wheel diameter in inches. The "40" aspect tire will fit but is smaller in diameter so you will be turning the wheels faster and your speedo will be off a bit. Try a wider tire at "40" or a larger wheel...

CD Burning Issues with Windows XP?

Sorry Carbo, I misread your version number, but 5.1.9 works perfectly for me both at home (all SCSI) and at work (all IDE).

CD Burning Issues with Windows XP?

Maybe a free upgrade download to version 5.1.9 might cure your ills. I have no such issues with NTI 5.1.9 and XP Pro.

I want a Corvette

I am 6'4" 200 pounds, and plenty comfortable in my fourth Corvette. The C5's are not loud and are not gas guzzlers; my lifetime gas mileage on the present 2000 FRC is 21.7 with not a single trip outside the county. Not one problem on the car (other than anwering numerous questions when filling...
