    Problems installing a new processor

    check for any bent pins on the cpu (give us the model numbers IcY18 asked for before hand though) but that may be a hard ware issue that would cause that. also make sure your motherboard/psu have the four pin power plug to support the P4. but again what is the model number for the computer or...

    raptor worth it?

    that is completely not true. every commercial windows server in the world runs raid (mostly 1, 5, and 0+1 though) even so i've built a dozen or so desktop systems running raid (with cards and with out) that have ran beautifully when you run raid you add an additional component to go bad...

    Intel - stopping poor children from getting computers

    so you're saying its time for the government to step in and say who can sale what to whom? Whats next? Curfews because more crime happens at night? I stated earlier that AMD needs to really back this project for their own benefit and for the benefit of the world at large.

    Intel - stopping poor children from getting computers

    its good business, i don't agree with it, but if you don't like it move to cuba where there is no free market. every thing in your life (assuming your not from a communist country) is a result of this same thing. small independ companies/non-profits getting shut down their dreams smashed by...

    Intel - stopping poor children from getting computers

    Intel - stopping poor children from getting computers

    IS there such a thing as a router that just routes?

    ok to the OP do not buy a hub. hubs slow networks down, you will be pissed off using a hub. CAT6 cable is only good for industrial LANs not for home internet usage. because your connection to the internet is (assuming you have standard DSL) only 1.5MB down stream you are buying cable that...
