    dsl modem centurylink

    So I'm buying a new place here shortly that has dsl as my only option out in the country with centurylink. I found out they have a C1100Z router/modem but apparently centurylink wont sell me that model when I take over the current owner's slot, but a cheaper version that doesn't have what I...

    Haswell vs Ivy

    Thanks Spirit, I also am curious how is AMD doing in the field now? *edit* Looks like AMD is being trampled again....real shame.

    Haswell vs Ivy

    Upgrading from the specs below and was curious which was the better route to go? I was told Haswell is best clock for clock but that it runs really hot, I was looking at the i5-4670k for $220 and the i5-3570k at $230 at newegg. Anything will be an upgrade for my system and I planned on using a...

    Windows 7 Admin Account

    No, I don't want to view the password but I when I want access it forces me to "reset" the password to access. I just don't want to delete the password in order to access the account is all. Odds are I will never NEED to do this but if I ever have a need to then I want to be able too.

    Windows 7 Admin Account

    Is there a way to make a admin account have full access to other users (non-admins) accounts on the system even if they password protect? I know the admin can change the password of user accounts to get access but I don't want to delete the user password in the process. Anyway around this?

    Online Backup 2.0Gb for free

    For anyone wanting to do this id encrypt ALL your files before uploading. They have full access to anything you upload and they COULD sell your info or have their own drives stolen. Id make a basic truecrypt iso as its been proven to be hard to crack.

    EA Getting on the bandwagon.

    Its just the simple though. They are a BUSINESS they don't care about ANYONE but the stock holders and money. Take away the money and they will submit or die, not buying = only way. Unless you have $$$ to either buy the company out or enough stock to tell them how to run the company. I stopped...

    EA Getting on the bandwagon.

    Once again it doesn't matter. New or old the game is typically bypassed and servers are up within a week if not sooner. MW2 servers were being spammed within 2 hours of game release so its a art form to people now. EA only encourages it farther by ripping people off like this. Biggest scam imho...

    EA Getting on the bandwagon.

    Not true at all....there is a big community of pirated servers out there for many games. This move by EA will only encourage more growth on that side of the fence.

    EA Getting on the bandwagon.

    *sniff* I smell GREED. Yet another title I wont buy or help support in any way shape or form. Now I wont even buy it used later down in life either. Can only blame gamers though here, if everyone didn't buy their games they would change their tune quickly.

    To anyone interested - $5 EA Games

    Digitial Downloads. *edit* Creepy, as soon as I clicked the link I got a email saying my "account changed to origin account". Not logged into EA and my IP even changed after I switched tiers.

    CanYouRunIt / Call of Duty

    Depends, link your specs or laptop. Even a screenshot from "Can you run it" would help.

    Why are Graphics so important to gamers?

    Graphics are neat for eyegasams but honestly what makes a game is the same brew that made it popular to begin with. Gameplay - Mechanics - Storyline = Replay value = great game. I find myself playing games made pre-2000 more because the industry lost touch for the most part of those classic...

    Hitman Absolution

    Indeed, from the trailer it looks like garbage to the franchise. Still to early to tell but they ruined so many games the past 5 years that I sorta given up hope that designers will stick to the concept of the franchise. I mean look at the newest Splinter Cell...sure it looked cool and was fun...

    How do I prevent torrenting at the router level?

    Simple solution. You pay for the internet by yourself right? If so then put a 2 way lock on your bedroom door and unplug all their internet. When they complain simply say this. I have 5 warnings from my ISP because you are breaking the law. My name is on the paper and its my ass on the line. If...

    looking for Isopropyl alcohol 99%

    Gotta be honest if your using it for computer then 91% is just as good. You just need to wait a few more seconds for it to poof. Also any Walmart that I ever been in has carried both 91% and 99%. In a pinch I even used Vodka (normal vodka not flavored etc types)

    Would you consider this person to be a fanboy, at all?

    Guy is a fanboy, AMD rigs are just fine especially for budget users and the Phenom II line has shown to be a great overclocker. Intel will provide better results especially when you overclock but you pay more of a premium for what you get. I always thought the AMD vs Intel vs Nvidia vs ATI was...
