Anyone know how to modify the backpack on a Rio600 to upgrade the memory yourself rather than spend $50 on a lousy 32MB backpack on-line?

I have an Abit TH7-II RAID motherboard with a pair of WD 100GB hard drives in a RAID0 configuration. Occasionally when I am using Windows Explorer (XP) to look at the files on the Raid array (my D: drive) my computer will start getting really slow even after I close all of my applications...

I've had this same problem with DIV-x. Is it possible that it's a Div-x file and that you need to download the latest div-x codec? I don't have a URL where to get it but look for it on the web.

I have v8200 Deluxe. Besides selecting the appropriate capture driver, make sure that select the appropriate input from the card. Some software allows you to select Cable, S-Video, or composite. It worked for me.

I have an Abit TH7II motherboard with a P4 1.8Ghz processor. My system disk is a Seagate 80GB 7200RPM drive (the same that is benchmarked on this website) and I have a RAID0 array on the on-board raid controller consisting of a pair of Western Digital 100GB 2MB cache 7200RPM drives (also...

I re-read your post. Remove your old video card and put your new video card in. Double check that the version of your AGP slot in your motherboard manual and make sure the GF2 card supports that. Put your new one in if it does. It will be Direct3D compliant and OpenGL. Download the latest...

I'm not an expert so we'll clear that up real fast. Direct3D is a 3D format or language that 3D software makers can use. There is also OpenGL and 3DFx. I think that 3DFx is about gone. OpenGL is the 3D format that Quake, Return to Wolfenstein, and most newer first person shooters use...

I am building a PC with video editing in mind. I wanted to buy a pair of 80 or 100GB drives for a RAID array. Am I shooting myself in the foot by using these disks as a system disk too? I read that it is recommended to have a dedicated disk for audio and video files that is separate from the...

I am going to buy an Abit TH7II RAID motherboard and want to get a pair of 100GB WD hard drives to pair together for a RAID 0 config. I want to build this system and use Windows XP. I thought I would boot from a floppy that has FDISK and FORMAT on it and format the drives. Can the BIOS handle...
