I'm sure it's something to do with my internet settings, media player, or codecs. When I go to www.nhl.com and scroll down to click on the link to watch a compliation of goalie saves video (i click on both 300k and 700k) my explorer alwys shutsdown, same goes with firefox. I asked others to...

I just bought a OCZ Rally2 1gb flash drive and when I brought it home and plugged it in the computer recognized the device but when I open My Computer I don't see anything to access the flash drive. The usb drives I know work so I'm guessing it may be the flash drive which just buying it is...

I use a Mcafee antivirus scanner and firewall. Version 10.0 for the virus scanner and build 7.1.113 for the firewall. DAT files are up to date as well. Often nowadays I find that the mcafee icon is black indicating something is disabled, hovering over the icon it says the personal firewall...

Wasn't too sure if this is the proper thread for my problem. Basically, after uploading videos taken with my digital camera (Canon Powershot A510) when accessing the folder where the files have been uploaded to, explorer ends up not responding. This never happened before but has recently after...

I didn't realize I installed a Windows update that checks if my copy of windows is legit (of course it's not...don't look at me like that....like yours is real either) so when I started up after installing, it went through a process of telling me my copy wasn't genuine and all and tells me I can...

Contemplating whether how bad do I wanna send back my Geforce 6600gt OC 128mb card back to BFG to have it repaired after it stopped working not too long ago. Cost for shipping into the states from Canada (and possibly they may charge me for shipping back?) plus the wait time is making it an...

After having some bootup problems a little bit ago and solving that the issue was with the video card got a few questions. When my video card is plugged in and set in place, the computer doesn't bootup (followed with 1 long and 8 short beeps), also to note that the cpu fan then moves a lot more...

I think I fried my CPU. Basically i turned on my computer one day and heard several beeps one after the other, nothing showed up on screen and the computer seemes to be working. After I opened it up I saw all fans except the case fan was working, the case fan was moving super slow if anything...

I know this isn't a hardware problem but a google search didn't work out for me. Was playing an episode of Lost I had downloaded (and have watched before) and now it's playing vertically flipped, as in upside down. Not sure what the problem is..perhaps a codec?

My motherboard supports 4 x DDR DIMM slots but I havne't used all slots yet. So far it has been 1 x Kingston 1024mb stick in one coloured channel (blue) and in the other 2 black channels I have 2 x 256mb Kingmax sticks of ram; thus amounting to about 1.5gb of ram though it was only working at...

Was watching a quicktime clip of conan o'brian and then my screen went black as if there was no connection and came back on soon after. I then saw my internet connection went down (i use cable). Not too long after the connectin was back up. I checked to see if all the plugs were connected...

Was looking around for an LCD just for curiosity sakes. Currently use a Samsung SyncMaster 753df 17" but i was eyeing this one which seems to be in a decent price range: http://www.pcvonline.com/productDetails.aspx?id=1199 don't have a hell of a lot so i figure it's okay. I suppose a 19"...

I didn't know where to post this since I didn't see a section for it. Hope yall don't mind. Basically I have a movie file that's in .avi format and I wanna know if it's possible to be able to burn it on to a regular cd-r/cd-rw so it'll be playable (like a vcd i guess?) on a regular DVD player...

I've never had a problem playing BF2 and have been playing since last summer, after my recent format I just reinstalled bf2 and now I can't seem to play. I have the latest nvidia drivers, directx and so on. Tried reinstalling the game but to no avail. All I got when I startup (and a slow one...

im trying to format my computer. popped in my XP cd and configured the BIOS to boot from the cd-drive first. after restarting it won't boot from cd and proceeds to load my OS (also xp service pack 2) ne ideas? edit: also hit F11 which brings me to an option asking what to boot from (HD, cd...

it's been a few days since i installed the new mobo and cpu (ASRock 939 Dual Sata2 and a Athlon 64 3200+) and i even managed to overclock from 2.0 to 2.66ghz but out of nowhere when browsing online i got a blue screen that said there's a problem with windows and needs to be shutdown/restarted to...

just to make sure: if i put 2x1gb sticks of ram as well as 2x256mb will it work at optimal speed? or will it just work @ 512? currently have 1 x 1gb ram and 2x256 in my computer and i know my mobo doesn't support that config...so is it just working at 512 now? and if so that means i should...

Im a newb to all this stuff, the only things I ever installed were a video card, ram and a power supply :P. Should I attempt to replace my old mobo with this new one? or wait for some help from someone else....(the new mobo and cpu is aching to be installed i cant take it!!!)

i posted a thread on the motherboard section just now about a new mobo and cpu i just bought today. Question is what to do with my old one??! I was thinking if possible I could break out my super old HP i bought from futureshop (equivalent to best buy if u dont know) back in '99, it's small...

Hey I JUST bought an ASRock 939 Dual-SATA2 (holds an agp 8x slot and a pci-e slot!). Anyhow, I don't even have a clue on how to install it but the question is, I have one stick of 1024mb ram and 2x256mb, since this mobo has 4 slots (2 are black and 2 are blue) to hold ram, can I put all the ram...
