    Desktop icons reappear after switching between AC and Battery mode

    So I've got this new ASUS laptop that I've been playing around with all morning, and everything is going smoothly except one little weird issue. Every time I unplug or plug in the power source, and the laptop switches between AC and Battery mode, the desktop icons reappear, despite the fact...

    Internet goes down every night.

    It's connected over Ethernet. Oddly enough the problem didn't happen last night, so Johnb might be right and it might just be Comcast having issues. If it happens tonight, I'll give them a call in the morning and see what they say.

    Internet goes down every night.

    So I've been having this weird problem for the last week or so with my internet going down in the middle of the night, every night. For the past week, everytime I get up in the morning, my network says it can't communicated with the primary DNS server, so I can't access the internet. I reset...

    Windows 7 RC 64 bit install problems

    It's from the official site. Also I've downloaded twice and burned it twice, still the same error. Edit: Nevermind, I solved the problem myself. Turns out my video card doesn't like the drivers that are on the Windows 7 RC 64 bit DVD, so I just disabled the card before it got to that last step...

    Windows 7 RC 64 bit install problems

    Ok, so each time I've tried to install Windows 7 RC 64 bit, the install freezes during the "Completing install" part. When it comes up to that part, the screen will flash and the resolution will normalize and then it'll freeze a few seconds later. I never had this problem with build 7000...

    *Official * Windows 7 Thread

    So I've been playing around with this for a while, and I gotta say I'm very very impressed. I installed the 64 bit version of my system in my sig. Install time was just 26 minutes on a 100GB partition. When it booted up, it detected all my hardware and had every necessary driver ready to go...

    Computer too hot?

    Alright so instead of creating a new topic, I figured I'd just dig up this old one instead because it seems to match up the closest. My temps are as follows(and of course, my specs are in my sig) Idle: CPU:40C MB:48C GPU:61C HDD:31C Load: CPU:43C MB:49C GPU:65C HDD:35C Is it...

    CRYSIS Thread

    Just bought this yesterday and I've been playing it most of the day since I got snowed in from work. It's a pretty game(settings on high 1680x1050) that's for sure. Gameplay is above average, but I'm having a hard time getting into the story so far.

    Newegg.com not always the best buy?

    Personally, I like to use a combination of the two. The last build I did, I bought a very bare bones kit from Ibuypower which basically consisted of the case,motherboard,CPU, and PSU. Then I bought the HDD, video card,memory, and monitor from Newegg. The rest, like the sound card, optical drive...

    NewEgg sucks..

    Indeed. I've never had anything but great respect for Newegg. Everyone else I know that uses them has had good experiences. A shame you were one of the unlucky few.

    Your opinion on pirating windows

    Personally, I'm not against pirating in certain situations I suppose. But I've generally just used it to try out things. If I like a companies product, I'm more apt to pay for things that company makes in the future because I know they do quality work. I've bought alot of programs from a bunch...
