Anyone know a good Large 21 inch Black monitors or how to I paint one?

Hey guys, I'm wondering what kind (or if there are any) large 21 or so inch BLACK monitors? Anyone know if there are any one's of good quality or flat screen? I'm hoping not to go to TFT until the prices come down... If not, does anyone know of any kind of a guide to removing and painting the...

New computer keeps bios resetting! Help please!

OMG, it turns out the problem lies with Windows Millenium. Apparently, Fast Shutdown does not work properly with some rigs. You can disable fast shutdown in Windows 98SE, or get a fix from MS, but for Windows ME, there isn't a fix... Windows 98SE works fine, Windows ME is a no go. If anyone...

New computer keeps bios resetting! Help please!

Heh, yeah, that would be embarassing. But I haven't touched the CMOS setting so it should be defaulted to off. (Manufacturer's default). I will check it when I get home, but it shouldn't boot if it was discharging.... Hmm, maybe the company that sold it to me played with the jumpers or...

New computer keeps bios resetting! Help please!

Yeah, I thought it might be the battery, so I checked to see if it was retaining the time. The clock for the bios is correct, so I think the battery is OK... It's almost like it is just resetting the CMOS or something...

New computer keeps bios resetting! Help please!

Ok, yesterday I just got all the new components for a system set up. It was working great, and I've gotten windows millenium, etc. installed. However, last night, I had a funny thing happen. When I shut it off, it WOULD NOT turn off. It just kept rebooting, even after I did a hard shut...

OLD SEARS "free appliance" thread - ignore this one and post in new thread!

Any specifics of the kenmore models available for this week? I would think Costco.com would be a good place to check out. They usually have really good prices on appliances and this type of stuff, and it's local, so you can go in the store to buy it and bring the receipt over to Sears for the...

OLD SEARS "free appliance" thread - ignore this one and post in new thread!

Bigbootydaddy, Actually, I was referring to hychka's second post which referenced Sear's customer satisfaction guarantee. These are fairly common with vendors. However, let's get something straight.... It's not much of a guarantee if they aren't guarantee-ing anything. I am not sure of...

OLD SEARS "free appliance" thread - ignore this one and post in new thread!

Hey guys, before we give hychka too much cr*p, let's keep in mind that Sears had a warranty SPECIFICALLY ON THE GLASS for this product that was seperate from the oven. If they didn't want to cover breakage, what is the warranty for? Scratching? Glazing? Is that any less the fault of the...

VERY HOT Cable Modem/@Home deal!!

To clarify will this deal work for any @home subscriber? In example, I have cox@home (not Att@home or other). Does the rebate necessitate being an ATT customer? Anyone know if this is a nationwide deal or not? Any information available on the rebate form itself? Thanks!

How do I set up my PC to do FTP??

If you want to break your image files up into smaller "chunks" to make them easier to download/easier on your machine in regards to memory, or in case you have to shut down the server so that people don't lose the whole download, you can use winrar. It's very simple, just add it to a...

i couldnt turn on my pc pls help ..... :(

In more detail, All you have to do is clear or "flash" your CMOS. Most motherboards have a 3 pin "jumper" that can do this. All you have to do is... 1. Make sure the power is off on your computer. 2. Remove the screws from the outside of your computer, and open the case of...
