So I know Alexa was always an estimate. But recently (since they updated and basically went to a paid service). My site has dropped significantly in the rankings. Peaking in the low 90ks it has dropped to 130k over the last couple months. Interestingly enough each week/month is more trafficked...

Hey Everyone, So the other day I realized I couldn't make any changes/new posts to my wordpress site. The culprit being that my database was somehow 1.1gb (turns out all those 150,000 spam posts that never got published actually did have an effect). So I figured, ok I'll delete em. First did...

Hey Everyone, I'm pulling my hair out right now because I CANNOT get Thunderbird to save my emails on the right hard drive. I have a 60gb SSD which has 5gb free space, I installed thunderbird (to a drive other than the SSD mind you) and it still stores my email in the local folder. Ok...

Hey Everyone, I just purchased a Buffalo WZR-600DHP router and have been having a weird issue. When using the router on the shipped DD-WRT firmware I consistently get "The default gateway is not available" error and I have to reset my wireless adapter on my laptop. This issue doesn't occur on...

Hey Everyone, So I found my old monitor recently (the 1280X1024 LCD) and I was wondering what kind of adapter I would need to run all three of my monitors. I've been looking around and it appears I need a DisplayPort adapter. I just wanted to confirm this for my situation especially since I...

Hey everyone, I'm looking to build a new media PC to replace the old Athlon X2 rig I'm currently using. I need the computer to play 1080p MKVs with DTS audio. I was able to get the Athlon X2 to play 720p files with DTS but 1080p were on the glitchy side. I need to be able to utilize the...

Hey Everyone, So I just purchased an LG WH14NS40 Blu-Ray drive for my PC and the image quality is not what I was expecting... I've tried PowerDVD 12 and WinDVD Pro 11 and so far WinDVD has provided a clearer image but its still not great (PS3 quality). PowerDVD quality is pretty terrible. I'm...

Howdy Everyone, (Been a while) Just thought I'd vent a little. Last year I got a Dell Vostro 1015 for work (nothing special). Aside from the fact that it had terrible performance which I expected, it had an audio problem from the day I received it, I couldn't send it back because I needed it for...

Hey everyone, I remember back before I got my new board (Gigabyte 990XA-UD3), my processor would not always run at 16x multiplier, it would run at 4x until I moved the mouse or something. I am unsure how to get my computer to respond in the same way again. I have OverDrive installed, CCC...

Hey Everyone, So I received my Touchpad sometime last week. I'm very please with it, except for one thing. The volume to the headphones is very quiet. I've tested multiple headphones that work fine on other devices but when I use them on the Touchpad, the volume is very quiet... Is there a fix...

Assuming this has something to do with bios so maybe it goes in the hardware section? I recently just switched from an MSI 890GXM-G65 motherboard to a Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 motherboard. I didn't have this problem before with the MSI so I'm assuming its not a windows issue. The bios are severely...

Anyways, I have a 1and1 eshop that i got for work. Its the 1and1 eshop professional ($30/month) we're signed on for a year, and until a week or two ago when I was finishing up, everything was all peachy. I don't know how I'm supposed to use the shipping settings on the eshop. Its virtually...

Just thought I'd see how many of us were able to/wanted to get a tablet at the severely discounted price over the weekend. I spent an hour or two clicking and waiting to get my tablet from HP's SBSO site. I was successful finally and I should be receiving my $99 dollar HP Touchpad sometime next...

Hey guys, A new problem, since I have many with everything and always. I'm trying to play xbox with my roommate in the same apartment. It's supposed to be separate internet connections but when we both go to whatismyip.org we get the exact same ip, also connecting to the club house wireless it...

Hey guys, So. I've watched (and loved) Top Gear for years on the BBC. A couple weeks ago I was watching it on BBC America and realized a saddening thing. The music on the same episodes of Top Gear America (The Vietnam Special for instance) was different on BBC America than on the BBC. The music...

Hey guys, Two days ago I got a BSOD thinking it must have just been a glitch of some sort. I was doing nothing on the PC, just web browsing. I didn't feel like turning the PC on again so I just left it, then yesterday the same thing happened. Again, while doing nothing more than web browsing...

Hey Guys, I am wondering if anybody knows about a magic fan filter or something. I had a silverstone filter that was great at filtering dust, but it cut back on nearly all airflow. With a filter my top graphics card runs at 79+(I didn't let it get any higher than that) without a filter it runs...

Just now I realize how long I've been out of the wireless network game. I haven't paid attention to pricing, models, or even new brands for the past few years. I currently have an old RangeMax router (G) and I was wondering if anybody has advice on a new router to get? I had a price of max...

Hey everyone, My computer just started getting the error message "Virtual Machine Stack Overflow" when Log-in to windows. I run a custom machine on Windows 7 Ultimate on an MSI 890GXM-G65 board It seems that the problem started when I did one of these things? Installed another 5770 in...

Hey everyone, So I want to crossfire my 5770 card on my MSI 890GXM-G65 motherboard. Its of course a micro board and the 5770s like most cards these days take up double spots and are generally big. I was wondering if people have crossfired big cards like these on micro boards or how much space...
