I checked the sticky out before I posted, but just wanted to double check about W7 compatibility...

I just got a windows 7 home premium laptop and am wondering what the best freeware antivirus and freeware, etc. programs are for this OS. I currently use Antivir for my XP rigs, will the free versions still work? Does spybot S&D and malwarebytes work? What are my other choices? It...

Core i7 1: ASUS - http://www.mwave.com/mwave/SkuSearch_v3.asp?scriteria=8307581 Core i7 2: HP - Approx $1,075 (Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-720QM Processor (1.6GHz, 6MB L2 Cache, 1333MHz FSB) 4GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm) from 2GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)...

This is the q9000 model I'm looking at: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220613 ASUS i7 comps are about 250 - 300 bucks more...

So I'm planning on buying a laptop to replace my desktop (in sig). I'm focussing on ASUS as they have been good to me in the past and are considered some of the better laptop makers. Anyhoo, I am looking at the 16 inch variety. So I;m looking at two one, with a the Q9000 and one with the...

I just purchased downloads from a well known site for HD versions of a web-based show. They were downloaded in MP4 format. I want to watch them on my home theater system, which is not connected to my computer. In order to do that I would like to burn them to a DVD, I generally use NERO for...

Not to be a douche fanboy or whatnot (and you can see my most recent CPU choice in the sig), but having a serious competitor in the market is the only thing that will keep Intel honest. Without some actual competition, they can basically stop doing serious R&D and charge whatever they want for...

Thanks for the reply! I do understand that RAID 1 would not protect me from that particular problem, but having a redundant drive can help save files in a lot of different situations.... So, you are basically saying that RAID 1 requires a reformat to set up and cannot be done using a drive...

So after having a near heart attack with a possible HDD problem (turned out an XP repair install fixed the problem) and also because of the low price of storage these days, I want to set up a RAID 1 config in my current comp. I have a few questions to ask before I get started. I believe my...

a couple options from Newegg. 3870: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131095 8800gt: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121263

the E8400 is know to have buggy/faulty temperature sensors. My CPU idles at 45C and generally does not read a temperature above 45C (I got it to once using a stress test with an Intel temp sensor, but that was it). I don;t have it OCed, but still there should be some fluctuation in the temp...

Final bump Final bump, $200.00 OBO.

Cole, Check out this thread: http://www.computerforum.com/120281-mobo-cpu-ram-gpu.html I'm selling a motherboard, RAM, CPU and Video card bundle that should represent a significant upgrade for you. Originally asking %250.00, but I'm willing to around $200.00 or make an offer.

Why wouldn't you want the one with DDR5?

Depending on your mobo, you might have digital audio out even from onboard sound. My Gigabyte has a coaxial and optical (fiberoptic) out ports. Using these will give you better sound...

try unistalling/reinstalling or updating your version. Also, firefox has one of the best online troubleshooting services I've seen. Haven't used it for a while (just needed to once), I think you need to download bugzilla...

Maybe this RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227267 $ gigs and faster to boot, only about $10 more after rebate.

Sure it does, if you have an E8400 (they tend to have faulty temp sensors...)

With the RAM is $200.00 ($250 x 0.80) Without the RAM, it would be ($75 + $75 + $80) x 0.80 = $184

E8400 Idle: CPU 1 = 45 C CPU 2 = 45 C Load: CPU 1 = 45 C CPU 2 = 45 C
