    S-Video TV Out and Dell 2407WFP

    Thanks for the replies. I did try out your method Zeke aswell as LOL's, unfortunatly no love. I think that identical emails to nVidia and Dell are in my future. Again, thanks for the suggestions.

    S-Video TV Out and Dell 2407WFP

Hardware: Dell 2407WFP XFX 7900 GTX - no O/C - ForceWare 91.47 - Non-SLI I connect my monitor to my tower...

    i have that exact cd burner. and mine is dead. i've been through all the tech with rioch, and i have used a lens cleaner on it. still no luck. right now, it doesn't even read cds, let alone write to them. all rioch said was that my burner was probably expired, and i should invest in a new...

    XP System Restore, it does not work!!

    "last known good configuration" is infinatly more time useful to me than system restore. i've used it more than system restore (never mind that i turn it off right away:) )

    proper cooling of your pc?

    that sounds, pardon the pun, like a sweet setup EP. i've been meaning to take it to the sound in my computer, but i didn't have any spare time in the summer. possibly when winter sets it i'll have a go at it.

    Replacement Mobo NB Fan

    sounds good to me. i think that my mindset at the time was "it's having to do with cooling" lol. i definatly think that i will go passive in this case. and if i choose to OC later, i'll get a fan back on it.

    Replacement Mobo NB Fan

    thanks for the reply dreamliner, but that wasn't really the question that i asked. are you saying that it won't fit on the board? also, would putting just a large heatsink on the board be insufficient? i'm not doing any overclocking at all, however the computer remains on all day. thanks.

    Replacement Mobo NB Fan

    hey guys, i've got a question that requires your input. the northbridge fan on my NF7-S crapped out a couple of days ago. so i am going to replace it, problem is that practically no-one has pure NB fans. so i was wondering if the thermaltake CrystalOrb would suffice? or if i could not be...

    How much system resource do these theme prgs take up?

    you could also try out patched UXTheme.dll files. if you are worried about changing a .dll or if you want to start off a little slower (nothing wrong with that, i did it too :) )then go ahead and get something like ThemeXP as vern mentioned. if you do use a program that changes your .dll it...

    Losing Internet

    i've had that problem, or a problem very similar to it. try typing ipconfig /flushdns in the command window, wait like 5 seconds and see if you can connect.

    Video Files / Explorer Problem

    Okay, i fixed my problem, so i thought that i would let you guys know how i did it, and what was wrong, incase you encounter the same issue. apparently it was ffdshow that was causing the crash, i guess that it became corrupt. i found out that it was ffdshow by going into XP Pro's events log...

    Video Files / Explorer Problem

    thanks for the reply LeeJend. i knew that i was missing something. the files are all Xvid files, and i am using TMPGEnc to encode them, with VidrtualDubMod and AVISynth to script it. i don't think that my conversion app is corrupt, not my codec, because i didn't touch the last few files...
