    Can't copy / move a file...

    http://www.winability.com/why-cant-i-copy-large-files-over-4gb-to-my-usb-flash-drive/ This could be the case (granted the file is over 4GB, and your USB is using FAT32). You can check your flash drives file system by right clicking the drive in My Computer, selecting properties and looking at...

    Personal bookmarks - private?

    I feel the same way. I have a ton of bookmarks, 400 or so. None of it is personal or embarrassing, I'd just rather people not snoop through it. There is some embarrassing music I listen to, but would never admit it to anyone. I also find that whenever I delete a bookmark, the following week I...

    Computer won't load BIOS if computer has been shutdown overnight.

    Did the battery thing and it booted up fine unfortunately. Everything on the computer works fine (I'm using it to post in this thread), it's just that after 12 hours~ of the computer being shut off, it needs to be warmed up in order to load anything. Here's more-less what happens: *After it's...

    Computer won't load BIOS if computer has been shutdown overnight.

    My computer won't load to BIOS if it's been turned off for 12+ hours. I have to keep the computer running on a black screen, (Monitor gets no input to turn it on) for about 10 minutes. After it's been running for a while I can restart it and have everything work. My friend says it could be...

    New PC and monitor not responding!

    No idea if this will work for you but... This has been happening to my computer lately. If I leave it off for a longer period of time, when I try to start it up the monitor won't receive a signal (the BIOS screen won't load but the computer will turn on). I have to let the computer run for...

    How much could these parts be sold for?

    I should've specified. I'm curious how much each part could be reasonably sold for individually

    How much could these parts be sold for?

    I'd just like to sell everything for a reasonable price. It would be nice if neither me, or the buyer gets ripped off :P.

    Battlefield 3 Thread

    I'm trying to be optimistic here :). An engine built from scratch is good because it means they won't have to compromise on the features they want. Another plus is that they already had a test run with the earlier versions of the frostbite engine. Re-writing it from scratch, specifically for...

    How much could these parts be sold for?

    I've been thinking about buying an Intel rig for a month or so, the below parts are pieces of hardware accumulated over the past few years, and some pieces of my current setup that I'd be replacing. *Enermax FMA II 460W Power supply. (It's about 3 years old, but was only used for 9 months)...

    Battlefield 3 Thread

    People who played the real battlefield games (PC Exclusive versions), know how epic they are. Knowing that BF3 is a sequel to BF2, with PC as it's lead platform, and 5 years in the making with a new engine written from scratch specifically for this game... It's kinda a given it's going to be...

    Windows XP suddenly becomes unbearably slow

    I think the problem is my motherboard =/. When I plugged my harddrive into another rig, it had no lag issues whatsoever. I also tried every other sata port and sata cables that I had, still no luck.

    Windows XP suddenly becomes unbearably slow

    Last night I was gaming and doing regular stuff, computer was fast as normal. I go to bed after I schedule a boot time scan with avast. The following day I logon (Windows is already at the loading screen). I notice my computer is fairly slow, and the sound is popping. So I restart incase a sound...

    POLL: do you put stickers and brand labels on your PC?

    I put a Corsair sticker on my case, it was the only one that didn't look like crap. And it was simple. Found a picture of one (err.. 7, but you get the point). I ended up peeling it off in the end. :D.

    CPU Heatsync/Cooler Needed.

    I need a good cooler for my 955 BE. I originally planned on going with a Xigmatec Black Knight based on good reviews and benchmarks, however after further reading a lot of people have complained about the dark knight being too large for am3 motherboards, and overlapping 2 ram slots (Recommended...

    games for this computer (?)

    Solitaire, but here's the trick; Left click and hold down on the car(d), then move it around in circles and pretend your racing other car(d)s around the screen. You can change the track by making it a bigger or smaller window, via adjusting the window size. You can customize the track by...
