    custom subnet mask

    Explain what you are trying to do... There are different classes and they depend on how many addresses you need and how you want to structure your network.

    Exploding PSU

    Could be temperature. But more than likely it's just due to the Taiwanese rapid manufactured units that you've used in the past.

    Active Battery Backup

    Doesn't exactly save your work, it puts the machine into hibernate where the current RAM data is copied to the hard disk. Why are they calling it an "Active Battery Backup" and not just a UPS? Does APC have a copyright on the UPS name?

    Nvidia releases ForceWare 182.65 drivers

    I need to update my drivers because the new Need for Speed is running like crap.

    Heh. Prove it! :P

    mac is better than pc, proven

    And this is why Mac users look like idiots... Because of stupid media.

    External Hard drive not recognized by MAC. serious problem here

    That's only if the Mac formatted it in HFS+ and not FAT32. However, if the PC formatted it with NTFS then the Mac would not *natively* recognize it.

    What would you call your RECYCLE BIN!?

    I would call it: "My bad attempts at a new programming language"

    I hate Mozilla Firefox. Come get me!

    Opera is probably best, it's a lightened version of Firefox. But they are using a lawsuit in France against Microsoft that was used here in the US years ago. So in my opinion, Opera is pretty whiny. Firefox is my choice, but it's too heavy sometimes. That's why you see lightweight versions of...

    Replacing hard drive pcb

    The only time I have heard of replacing the PCB on an HDD is when there's a sensitive data recovery situation. Like the power supply tripped out and fried the PCB but did not harm the drive internals or the machine had a changing temperature environment.

    Server setup for 5-10 PCs

    Put an NAS on the network so you can save your work and put passwords/permissions with certain folders. Not 10 user accounts, rather just 1. Make each machine a single, admin account. But put Deep Freeze on it, so it's almost impossible to mess the machine up with spyware, fragmentation...

    Problem with Vista

    True... But, the Vista record could be damaged while the 7 record is not.

    IP address shown in forum

    Yeah....if he wants to try some stuff, tell him that your IP is 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 is the default IP for a localhost machine. So he'll be striking his own machine. You have no 'gaping' holes and that immature idiot would most definitely not find them. If he tries something he is most likely...

    IP address shown in forum

    It's not in your security, it's the forum's security. Those guys should be beaten for allowing a non-admin member access to the logs like that. He can do that to anyone and you're not really at risk if you're using an ISP with a dynamically assigned IP. That forum is just wide open, and that...

    Problem with Vista

    Clear out the MBR, then repair it and you will need a Vista/7 disc. Even a burned disc will work, it doesn't matter, just so you can access the repair console.

    just starting

    Yeah, I've built computers with Centurions. They're pretty quiet, solid cases, and they are good competition for Antec's lower-end cases.

    Server setup for 5-10 PCs

    I wouldn't go with a server network with less than 15 machines. I would use a peer-to-peer type. With dedicated user accounts, and from what it sounds like, you might wanna look into Deep Freeze.

    /g/ 's attack on AMD

    I've always been an Intel guy, I've never owned an AMD chip. It all depends on what you're doing and whether you like price:performance ratios.

    /g/ 's attack on AMD

    No offense but AMD users do tend to talk about how Intel's quad is not a true quad. And how their old Athlon 3800+ competes with a Core 2 Duo. I get tired of hearing it so I kill the conversation with "<noun> <verb> multi-core application..."
