please help me with data recovery after paragon disaster :(

Hi, thanks for taking an interest. Before, the unallocated space (~500MB out of 2TB) was before in Disk Management. Now it shows as being after and still unallocated... so it never actually completed its task of merging the two. I hope this can somehow help you give me advice on a possible...

please help me with data recovery after paragon disaster :(

Hi everyone, I don't know what to do anymore... I've tried troubleshooting this myself but I need help now. Two weeks ago I tried to do what I thought would be an extremely simple operation. On my 2TB caviar green drive I had a small unallocated partition of ~500mb. I felt like it was...

Help me decide. Intel X-25 G2 160gb vs OCZ Vertex Turbo 120gb

That's a cool tool! Too bad the Vertex Turbo isn't selectable from the list. As far as I know the Vertex Turbo has got a significant edge over the Vertex

Help me decide. Intel X-25 G2 160gb vs OCZ Vertex Turbo 120gb

I've been looking at SSDs for too long now... I feel like I'm about to make a purchase! I seem to have narrowed it down to 3 drives.. (mostly two). The OCZ Vertex Turbo 120gb for 440$ The Intel X-25 G2 160gb for 485$ The OCZ Colossus 120gb for 430$ I really don't like the fact the...

is this possible? 2 video cards, 1 with monitor/tv and the other with just monitor

i dunno about the splitter... i'm already running a 50 foot cable to the projector after using the dvi-to-hdmi adapter... add a splitter in the loop and what are the odds the signal will still get through all that! i think i'll read up about the ati/nvidia compatibility issue in vista... i...

Just wondering if this is possible. I have a X48 mobo with 2 pci-e 16x slots. I'm purchasing a 4870x2 this week and I plan on using the DVI-to-HDMI adapter to output to my HD projector. The 2nd DVI output will be used for a monitor. Here's the tricky part. I'm used to using two monitors...

which is the best 4870x2 ?

ah.. so they're really all the same then huh? All got the same crappy cooling too? Is there any decent non-water cooling solution on the horizon for the X2? like a Thermaltake HR-03 plus adapted to the X2? that would be sweet..

After a little digging the only brand-comparison review I've found is this : http://www.vr-zone.com/article...2_Roundup/5984-11.html However I find it is a very poor review.. not really listing the pros and cons of each card and not offering any chart comparing the cards between themselves...

question about 4850 and HD (bluray) playback

It plays video playback fine.... it's only when you throw 1080p at it that it becomes sluggish. Only when the filesize is really big. Beijing opening ceremony, 720p, 28GB single file, for example, is sluggish because it's huge. Planet Earth blu-ray, 25gb per disc, 8gb per stream file, is also...

question about 4850 and HD (bluray) playback

Well I am using one of those new terrabyte drives that are 5400-7200 (variable RPM). I didn't think this would play much of a factor since I figured that even a 5400 would be able to output data fast enough. How come applications like Gomplayer and KMplayer aren't using his CPU that much anyway...

question about 4850 and HD (bluray) playback

Hi everyone. So my uncle's got this fairly old computer. It's about 3 and a half years old. It's got a 3200+ with 1gb of ram. It's mainly only used as a HTPC to watch video on the living room TV. Last year I got him a ATI 2600HD for his HD playback needs. It does ok but it really begins to...

New Nvidia Drivers for Physx

Excuse the possibly dumb questions... but is it possible to use an old Nvidia card as a Physx card combined with a new high-end ATI card ? And um... (this one's probably really dumb)... would an old 6600GT actually work (just for Physx) or is it a 8800 series minimum? Ok last (possibly)...
