Fried PSU?

I was reading some other sites and some ppl were saying that a bad BIOS chip would cause the computer to just come on for a sec then go off again. Is there anyway to test if a BIOS chip is really dead or is it just a 50/50 chance type thing when bying a new chip?

Windows Blinds....

You could try replacing your shell to something like SharpE or LiteStep. SharpE is pretty simple to get setup and looks/performs decent IMO, but LiteStep is _really_ configurable. There's lots of themes for it and you can create your own if you get adventurous enough =) However keep in mind...

Analog to DVI

Ok so just to make sure.... I'm looking at a Geforce4 Ti 4600 which has both a VGA and DVI port and claims the Nvidia nView technology. So all I need is the dvi to vga cable and I can hook up both monitors, correct? Thanks for the replies!

Analog to DVI

Right but say I want to hook up two monitors to a video card with VGA and DVI out but I have two analog monitors (a CRT and an LCD), is there some other way to connect both?
