The last motherboard supported for windows XP is the LGA 1155 which is why I mentioned it as the best. I did not mention a brand though. I was just wondering which motherboard for win 7 is the best and saying one with drivers is not very helpful. I am putting together a rig for win xp, win 7...

I know that the LGA 1155 is the best MB for Windows XP. However I am making another computer. This time a windows 7 one. Would anyone know what is the best MB for windows 7? Price etc is not the problem here. Thank you :)

Oops gave you a review link. This is Zalmans link. http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_Read.php?Idx=680 Price is great. https://www.amazon.ca/Zalman-ZM-RS6F-surround-sound-headphones/dp/B0001OYMFO Also I have used these for many years since they came out and love them. Hope this...

Not sure if this is helpful but..... Years ago when I was an audiophile 30 years ago, it was found that headphones were just as good as speakers for the price of ten to one. By this I mean that for every ten dollars spent on headphones they were as good as 100 dollar speakers. So maybe invest...

Is there something in the app for this that has an "auto off" function? I ask because I had a mouse that would turn itself off if it did not detect anything under it. It was a battery saving device. I had to change it from milliseconds to a minute as it became annoying for me. Might be...

Soda has sugar in it and often when it dries it can cause a short circuit. I fix dozens of stereos this way after a coffee spill on them. I simply used a dampish sponge. I pressed the area affected and let it set for a minute to dissolve what was there. There should be a little bit of water on...

Not sure where you live. However I have found in London drugs here [BC Canada] wireless mice for 30 dollars. Which means $10 every where else lol. Try the computer dept of a local department store. They might have them there. Simple 3 button mice. I have also seen laptop cheap ones at dollar...

I have three mice. One for daily use. One for some games and another for certain apps and other games yet. Sometimes I will add my wireless mouse when I want to use it across the room to navigate music etc while I am working doing other things [cleaning, woodworking etc]. I turn the wireless...

Just as an aside. If you get some cheap foam pads from the dollar store you can cut a piece the size of the mic stand for it to stand on and it will help absorb some keystroke shocks. The pads are often a 1/16 inch thick and can simple be glue on with a little bit of white glue. Don't use to...

Step 1 If it is under warranty then RMA it. Step 2 If it is not then open it up and simply blow on the button inside. Try it with the housing off for now. Step 3 If that does not work then use an old worn toothbrush and very lightly run it over the button. If that does not work then it is...

Just as an aside. When ever you move a PC. ESPECIALLY an older one. Re-seat EVERYTHING. I use to have those problems when I would fix some ones PC, they took it home and presto, it stopped working. A simple open case [unplugged not just turned off] and push every cord and tab and card and...

I had win95A years ago and was never able to update it to anything higher. A simple mistake for microsoft but it was costly for all of us. Was glad for win98se :) I might look into this because some old games simply won't work for me any longer. Not even on winXP. Hmmmm Got me thinking here...

Hi I posted this elsewhere for another person. Maybe it will help you. I have no clue as to weather one can dual boot these two HOWEVER. Years ago I found a way to boot into many different operating systems if you have a hard drive for each OS. It is kind of cheating but I like it and used it...

I have no clue as to weather one can dual boot these two HOWEVER. Years ago I found a way to boot into many different operating systems if you have a hard drive for each OS. It is kind of cheating but I like it and used it for 5 OS's at one time Ok so disconnect one hard drive and instal XP on...

Do NOT use a hair dryer or any other heat source near isopropyl alcohol. You have the potential for a fire. Secondly. Pour some on to a table top ]not varnished] or something stable. Watch as it eveporates even though in a droplet. Next take a q tip [often used when cleaning] and smear a drop or...
