Ok, here goes. I'm having a big problem with my ISDN internet. I recently upgraded. And since then, my pc restarts or freezes whenever I'm online, sometimes after an hours, sometimes 2 or 3 hours. I can't figure it out. I don't know if this helps, but when I check my event viewer it says it's a cate...

Excellent service and prices: Cafe Viva Java in Durbanville, Capetown. The staff was helpful, knew what they were talking about. I wasnt even planning on buying a new PC, but after I saw those prices I suddenly decided my wallet was big enough. There was some probs with my mobo package, but the man...

OK, here goes. I'm in the market for a new monitor, and I have decided that a 22" seems the way to go, but first, I need make sure that my pc will be able to run games at a decent frame rate on a 22". I have a C2D E6850, XFX 8800 GTS 320MB, and 2 Gigs ram. Will this be sufficient? Another ...

They just claim that they are selling it as a backup copy. Then they can say that they not doing anything illegal.

I'm kind of on a tight budget, so I'm getting all my stuff second hand, hence the limited choice.

Thanks a lot for the help. I really appreciate it.

OK, i see now, you just need the updated BIOS. Thanks a lot for your help. One last question, is R1300 a good price for a 2nd hand E6850?

Edit:
One more thing, that DFI runs off an Ati chipset, does this matter much? I mean, it shouldn't have any negative affects on my geforce?

I haven't got a board yet, still in the process of getting one. It's between the following. ABIT AW9D-MAX intel 975 or the DFI LANPARTY UT ICFX3200-T2R/G. So if the chipp gets clocked down to 1066mhz, any idea of what speed it would run at? Sorry for the noob questions, I've just been out of what's ...

Ok, this is going to sound like a dumb question ,and it probably is. I have decided to do a small upgrade. So I decided to get the E6850, now, it has a FSB of 1333mhz. Now what I want to know is if this chip will work on a MB that is only rated at 1066mhz, and if so, how will it affect the performan...

For all you bikers and F1 fans out there. I just thought you would enjoy seeing Kimi's bike. I'm not personally into the chopper look, prefer the sports bike, but this thing is hardcore. http://www.slackers.co.za/uploads/20080506/kimi_raikonen_bike_01%20(Small).jpg http://www.slackers.co.za/uploads/...

So far, so very frikkin' awesome!

Man,sounds awesome.

Funny enough, Tenjo Tenge and Basalisk, were the ones I was thinking of watching, now when do they start over again?

Never watched anime in my life, and never thought I would, but thanks to DSTV's repeats of movies and my insomnia, I watched Hellsing, and Speed Grapher, and I enjoyed it tremendously. Speed Grapher finished last night, and when I started watching it, I thought it was stupid, but it really surprised...

Well I live in CT, so, there are the most beautiful beaches in th world to go to, and they have some of the most beautiful woman on them as well. There is a flat mountain to be climbed. There is the waterfront, but you going to need some money, well lots of it. You can go water skiing for the day fo...

Got my golden circle tickets, now to buff up, so I can push my way to the front for KORN!!

OH MY FREAKING *&^*&%^(. My sister and I have been waiting a lifetime for this, I can't freaking wait. I've been a little out of the band scene lately, but KORN, I mean KORN!!!! I can't wait!!!

I was jumping up and down when Ham's car cut out. I can't believe Kimi actually won, after all these years, he finally got his championship. It took him a Ferrari to do it. Mclaren is a crap team, and I loved the way Kimi gave them a slap in the face in the press conference by saying how happy he is...

Well that is perhaps the only incident that could be questionable. Vettel was punished immediately because he's the one who crashed directly into another car. All the spying email communication took place between Alonso and De La Rosa... Hamilton had nothing to do with it. Alonso and De La Rosa wer...

Well first of all, if it wasn't for him, neither him or Alonso would still be racing. Max Mosley said that they should both have been disqualified from the championship, but basically for TV rating they didn't. And don't forget he should have been penalized for his erratic driving last week. Vettel ...

I just hope that Hamilton doesn't win. I'm sick of all the special treatment he gets. I understand why though, cause it makes F1 appeal more to people now, but they go overboard with what they let him get away with. KIMI FTW!!!! But Alonso will do, he will most likely be in a Ferrari in a year or tw...
