Hi Everyone I'd be grateful of anyone's input on this. I'm looking to get a Dell PowerEdge 2970 2 x Quad Core Opteron. When it came to specifying the memory there was a huge difference in price - 32GB 800mhz dual rank comes at machine cost where as 32GB 667 clocked to 533 comes at a collosal...

For my hobby, I am looking for a low-cost microprocessor development kit to develope a simple embedded system. This system will measure the temperature and heart beat rate, compare them with a predefined table which implements some health-care knowledge, then provide some useful information....

There are lots of peripherals available thesedays, such as memory stick, CF card, digital sensors, LCD, controller, etc. Usually the peripheral itself is an embedded system and running software inside. I would like to know if I can also call the inside software "device driver", cause these term...

No wonder I got things mixed up! Anyway- I have three hard drives: 1) SATA 300GB one-partition 2) IDE 200GB three partitions 100-50-50 (Primary Master) 3) IDE 120GB one partition (Primary Slave)

I am looking out for a quiet 500gb to 1Tb external drive (pre built) for my Humax PVR backup. A fanless case is going to be the way to go but I intend placing the unit on top of the PVR which is in an enclosed TV stand which has some opening in the back and a few gaps around the glass front...

Hello, I previously posted about problems with my computer randomly freezing especially during games, like Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. Here are my computer's specs: Mobo: Asus P5ND2-SLI CPU: Dual Core Intel D 805 2x2.66GHz Memory: 3x1GB sticks Gfx card: XFX 6200LE or XFX 9600 GSO

Is there a card that plugs into a PC that has input terminals that can be linked to an alarm system (for example the typical N/O or N/C terminals)? (The use-case is that I want to be emailed when a motion detector is tripped - the system has the terminals stated above). Thanks!

A friend of mine is giving his old computer to someone and asked me to sanitize the hard drive for him before he passes it on. He gave me a (genuine) Windows XP Pro CD along with his machine, so I thought that the best way forward was to boot from the CD, delete the (single) partition, create a...

Greetings all, I have not used my 3.5 drive in about a year or so and found myself needing it. I installed a disk and tried to read it. I got an error message that said A:\ is not accessible No ID address mark was found on the floopy disk.

I recently got an old HP d300 computer. It's been working erratically - about one or two BSOD's a day for a couple of weeks. I checked the memory (31 passes of memtest86+) and changed the hard disk (it needed it anyway), but still get crashes. I've started noticing something in the case is making...

I was thinking about making a hardware switch that would allow me to run the front channel speaker outputs to the rear speakers when I'm only using stereo media, then I can just flip a switch have the rear speaker receive their usual rear channels. This will allow me to fully utilize all speakers...

Hi all, I just bought a Smart UPS 1400VA but it doesn't give quite enough runtime.. I was looking at 2000VA+ but they all have 20Amp plugs and I have no 20A circuit to attach an outlet to. How big can I go and still keep a standard plug ? I am NOT running a big load.. the idea is to run a SMALL...
