Would it be better for me to build a dual 2.8Ghz 800fsb Xeon gaming machine or a high end P4 3.2Ghz machine? I've heard that the dual CPU may not make a difference if the game doesn't support dual CPU's. Troy

Hi all, I have already made the purchase a month ago and now I realized that I didn't pay attention or gave enough importance to the amount of L2 cache memory included in my Dual Xeon system. I just wanted to have as much Ghz as possible ... The question is, is it better/faster: - Dual Xeon...

I have aquired an old Xerox DocuPrint C6 printer, can anybody tell me which order the black and coloured ink refills go? Thanks Tony

Hi all, Out printer was happy... until we got this error: 07,010.43:73178 . Based on what little I managed to find on the web something seems wrong with the printhead. To this end, I've got a question: is there a good manual anywhere on how to open up and disassemble these printers? This or any...

I have a Canon mini dv camcorder and the Firewire port on it is blown. Is there a device that will allow me to transfer my video tape to my hard drive, other than buying or borrowing another camcorder? If such a device exists, it would need to be less expensive than buying another camcorder or...

I have just installed this card and anyone also using it know what the unused contact strip is for on the outfacing side. Handbook (useless) and online reviews say nowt about it.

I've been unsucessful at installing a XFX GeForce 5200 128MB PCI video card. The card appeared to work but then the computer would hang after a few key strokes. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Ever since I merged two partitions on my HD in my laptop, I've been getting this problem: XMNT2002 not found - skipping auto check. Everything runs OK, but the message is annoying when starting up. I've checked some on the Internet and it seems to be a common problem for people who have used...
