    6800GS issues

    I think that 16a is sufficient on the 12v rail. However I got a lot of issues with my 7900GT when i first got it because of a crappy psu(which later died). I had artifacting in games and desktop etc. Try the card in another machine and if it does the same thing its likely a problem with the card.

    USB ports not working - please help :(

    Thanks guys, I tried what you said and had no success but I found that if I went into device manager and unticked the "let computer turn this device off to save power" they work fine,:) although, i cant understand why this happened in the first place as I was playing a game at the time. :dead:

    USB ports not working - please help :(

    It seems that if push the mouse into the port juts a little and not the full way the mouse will light up for a few seconds then turn off, for exactly the same amount of time every time.

    XBOX 360 - Am I missing something?

    The japanese generaly dont buy consoles/games developed outside japan. Especially western companies. Its accounted for by Patriotism and distrust of products from other countries.

    overclocking an ati video card..

    At most you'd see a 10fps difference. If its actively cooled(FAN), then you might be able to get a good overclock. I dont know how X1000 series cards overclock, but you might be able to do better.

    6600gt issue? 7600gs a possible replacement?

    Have you checked your card was seated properly? Have you tried it in your computer since? Try it in another pc and see how it runs. I dont think the 6800XT would be a good buy as its worse than the 6800nu. It doesnt really matter which manufacturer you go with but BFG, ASUS and XFX are all...

    Is there any software to compress music.

    Try reading this article: http://www.devhardware.com/c/a/Software/Bringing-Yourself-Up-to-Speed-with-AAC-MP3-and-Digital-Audio/1/ Also, music you buy from iTunes is in a format called m4p, you might need to convert it to mp3 first. Just burn the music to cd and rip it using windows media...

    graphics card help me plz

    The 7800 gs is a dumbed down AGP version of the 7800 GT, and it performs only slighty better than a 6800 GT and costs the same as a 7900GT (here in the uk anyway).
