My Absolutely Horrifying Delidding Story (Long)

Each time I've delidded a CPU, I've used the hammer & wood block method successfully. But each time I sweat bullets and swear I won't press my luck again.

Rampage V Extreme vs X99 Deluxe...

I have the X99 Deluxe. I didn't want to wait for the RVE to come out. Having said that, I'm very happy with the Deluxe even though the M.2 implementation is rather strange as Redstorm pointed out. I've used Asus mobos since the late 1990s with nary a problem. What I like best is Asus' UEFI. For...

Enthoo Pro vs Enthoo Luxe?

I have two Primos and they are fantastic cases. Were I in the market for a new case I would grab a Luxe, simply because it's a tad smaller and lighter, offers all the goodies the Primo does. One feature I especially like on the Luxe is the SSD mounting system on the back of the mobo. It seems to...

Phanteks Enthoo Pro

I have the Primo (two, actually, since I grabbed a white EP). The Pro looks very interesting, but I'm holding out for the upcoming Luxe with great looking lighting; I see it as a slightly smaller Primo. I thought the Luxe would be available first.

ibuypower vs. cyberpower laptops?

I've had the Cyberpower Fangbook HX7-100 for 6 months and I've not had any trouble. Quality is top shelf, inside and out. Battery life, as far as I can tell, is excellent. Simply surfing the net is good for 6+ hours. I use Flight Simulator 9 & 10 and get about 2-2.5 hours on a charge. The only...

Very Cool Freeware

I downloaded Iconoid, too. Cool little program since I like to "customize" my screen. One other thing I want to do is get rid of the ugly arrows on the shortcuts, like I'd done with XP. I noticed Corkyg has eliminated them.

firefox 29 " release candidate build 1 " final released

I'm running Win 7 with Firefox 27 (I think). Anyway, when I would download something a popup window will ask if I want to save the file. I USED to get a green arrow on the left side of the toolbar indicating the D/L status, files downloaded, and allowing installation. Now the arrow does not...

Strange Problem Logging On to a Site

Just for giggles I attempted to log on to Walmart this A.M. and it worked! However, I think I shall steer clear of Walmart's site, at least for the foreseeable future, simply for lack of trust. A big THANK YOU to everyone who offered suggestions and, though you may not have been aware, moral...

Strange Problem Logging On to a Site

I have a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580. I connected directly using the Ethernet cable without success. I'm beginning to suspect WM has problems as you suggest, Virgorising. Saturday morning I moved money around by going directly to the bank, so there's nothing to be had. And all balances were...

Strange Problem Logging On to a Site

I've not had any problems at all; just Walmart. I'm running Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes. Each does a quick scan daily, and a full scan every three days. I also run CCleaner at least once daily and on startup. Fardringle, this machine isn't used by anyone else and I will use...

Strange Problem Logging On to a Site

Hi Steltek. I just tried a private browsing window on both Firefox and IE, but no joy. I use Malwarebytes and ran a full scan this morning as well as yesterday morning. If you would be so kind as to elaborate on the SFC/SCANNOW I shall do just that.

Good thought and try, ketchup79, but no joy. I'm sure it's something simple like holding my mouth a certain way, but darned if I can figure it out.

Thanks, Hosed, but, no, I never store my ID or passwords. Paranoid, I guess.

Strange Problem Logging On to a Site

It was over the phone. I sent an email and they responded with their 800 number and that has proven unsatisfactory. BTW, I'm using Firefox and Adblock Edge, but I've not changed settings since setup two months ago.

Strange Problem Logging On to a Site

Starting Friday evening, when I attempt to log into Walmart, I receive error stating either my email addy or password is incorrect. Fine, except I had logged on then off successfully 30 minutes earlier. Yesterday I created a new email account and successfully logged on and, for the acid test...
