    USB devices and Windows 7

    I included in my email to the seller that I'm running 64-bit and he said it shouldn't matter. Also Microsoft is claiming on their website that a Nikon D2X is directly compatible with 64-bit and yet it's not working. On a side note I did have to install some additional drivers after installing...

    USB devices and Windows 7

    Yes, I've tried all ports. The card reader's power indicator is red when plugged in, and I imagine it is supposed to be green, so I at least know it's connected. I heard back from the seller and they said it's plug and play for all OSs. Their only solution was to ship me a new one, which I...

    USB devices and Windows 7

    It's been a while since I've been here, and I've kind of fallen off of the technology radar over the past few years. Anyway I'm having an issue that I'm not sure how to resolve. For starters, I have a Samsung NP305E7A-A02US running Windows 7 64-bit. My iPod Shuffle is perfectly recognizable...

    Does anybody remember the Chronocepter from Turok? You spent the whole game putting it together and it gave you what, like 2 shots?

    Grphics memory

    So, if my motherboard supports DDR RAM then would I not be able to buy a graphics card that uses DDR2 RAM? Or does the type of memory on the graphics card not matter? Thanks.

    CD Burning Software

    I'm looking for a simple program that can burn a CD with mp3 files that can be formatted to play on a non-mp3 player. Windows Media can only go so far... Free or trial versions...any suggestions? Thanks!

    New laptop

    wow, sorry to hear about your loss. good luck finding a computer nowadays without vista on it though... if it were ME, i would look into a thinkpad. theyve got lots of options for upgrades, what you want/dont want, etc.

    Vista sucks. I want to install XP on my new laptop in its place. Can I?

    you cant use xp twice, unless you pirated a serial key or something. i tend to think your laptop is slow because of the shit they load consumer computers with, though...vista boots fine for me...takes about 3 seconds to load after login. and my computers pretty antiquated at this point...
