I'm having a weird problem here. I'm transferring a large file from one of my servers (SCSI hard drive) to one of my desktops (7200 rpm hard drive). I'm using all 100Mbit Ethernet cards and I have confirmed (by looking at the switch) that everything is connected at 100Mbit. So why is my transfer...

I've got 2 computers (1 desktop and 1 laptop). The desktop has the nForce2 chipset (NIC) and the laptop has a Linksys 10/100 PC card in it. All drivers for both systems are current. All my cables are CAT 5e. I've tried both going through my gateway and running a direct crossover cable but no...

I've bought cable like that made by hama and now I'm using it for over a montch. Deviceces concted: JLMS DVD _ROM LTD-165H CH0Q and LiteOn LTR-48246S SS0E 100cm cable didn't make them to work slower then 45cm.. They are still able to copy "on fly" 700MB in about 2:30.. Nero CDSpeed didn't notice...

Hi everybody ! Is it possible to reuse a hard disk with the error mentionned ? Fdisk sees a formated NTFS partition. I dare not cancel the partition and renew it.

I recently switched to using a 47" LCD as my monitor. It's 1080p so my resolution is 1920x1080 I'm currently using a normal PC cable, the same one I used for my old 1024x768 monitor. Things look okay to me. But I note that there are different kinds of PC cables (HD15 / Sub D) . There are some...

11 SATA drives in my box now (all are nearly full too ;) 2 of which are in an external 5-drive enclosure which is being powered by 3 Y power cables (because the box is outside my tower) and 1meter SATA cables. Sys boots up with 10 drives, but plugging in the 11th (doesn't matter which rail) powers...

Hi all. I bought a 120 GB Hdd. I want to install W98se and XP on this drive. So I tried to make partitions with FDISK. but fdisk only sees 51 GB. So I booted XP and made the partitions in computer management. No problems there, but what will Windows 98se do whith the hdd ???

I've got a WD 120GB drive that XP home thinks is a removable media drive. The box is a P4VMM2 with a 2.4 GHz P4 and 533 FBS; 544Mb of 266MHz Micron DDR memory; new M/B; new 400 watt P/S. Before any changes, the HDD acted the same as now. Boot from CD, go to repair console and try to format the...

Hi group, I'm looking to buy a monochrome laser printer but I'm not sure which resolution to go for. Presumably the nxm dpi notation is for the dots per inch in the x-axis (perpendicular to paper feed) and the y-axis (parallel to paper feed)? Surely then it is best to have the x & y resolutions...

Hi! Just got one more HDD. The problem is that I can't seem to be able to make 120gb FAT32 partitions anymore? Actually I can't get them bigger then 32gb. Yeah, I know that 32gb should be the limit, but hey I gots 3 more drives workin nicely with big FAT32 partitions. The thing is that for those...

I need a drive to store games and downloads, I use a Maxtor 8mb cache drive as my boot drive, I can get the 120GB 2mb caches for £59.63 inc VAT or is it worth paying the £14 for the 8mb cache one?

Can a 120mm fan be modified on the back and front of LianLi P60 case? Thank you.

HI, I have just tried to upgrade a MS6178M motherboard from 64MB to 128MB or 196MB. using a PC133 128 MB Dimm. When I replaced the existing 64MB module with the 128MB module the BIOS comes up showing only 64MB. This is in either slot. Plugging the original 64MB in as well, and the BIOS come up with...

Hello everyone! I want to ask would it be better to take a graphics card with 128 MBs of DDR Ram or with 256 MBs of DDR Ram?? And is it true that the 256 MB are much older chipsets than those of 128 MBs? What difference would it make on the performance?? Actually I'm asking about R9800 Pro and...

I just noticed am abundance of large capacity (128GB) flash drives on the market quite cheap. I guess I just missed them. I had trouble in the past with the smaller ones, so I wonder if these larger ones are worth a trial? Anyone? Thanks J

I have an old home-built machine based on a Q'Lity P3810E-T motherboard (manufacturer now defunct) and a PIII 600EB slot 1 processor. One of the two sticks of ram in this machine went bad (reports numerous errors in memtest86), so I went out to CompUSA to replace it, taking my chances on the...

Asrock 4CoreDual VSTA e6400 2 DDR modules 7600GS passive (no extra power connector) 2 hard drives 1 DVD (rarely used) 3 fans on 5v rail. Is 11.13V too low for a 12v rail in the above? What is the biggest 12v power drain above - the graphics card?

Is there a surface mount outlet which can be installed on the front of a computer housing and use the internal 12v power supply? This is to plug in a transmitter to play MP3s on the computer and send via FM to a receiver. I already have the Irock type device, need power.
