I am still using IE 6 because as they say if it ain't broke don't fix it. But I believe I need to update for at least security reasons. IE 7 at one time gave many people issues but I assume the bugs are straightened out, correct? Also, .NET Framework 3.0 along with the 3.0 Family Pack is...

I know XP can only utilize 3 gigs of RAM. If your system can run dual channel in a 2x1 gig configuration and you add a third 1 gig stick does your system lose the dual channel aspect? What is gained or lost with 3 gigs? Thanks.

I didn't want to hijack RockLAX's thread so I started my own. My son wants to play a 3.5 Bard. Neither he nor I have played one before and the DM has never had a player roll one up before. The new campaign we are about to begin will be starting us off at 3rd level. He has 50 Skill Points to...

My wife suggested that we might consider getting an LCD HDTV for Christmas. Right now we have analog signal TVs which means that we will have to get converter boxes from our cable provider. Since LCD HDTVs are digital and not analog (right?) and I have cable, will I need a converter box? Sorry...

I know there is plenty of angst over Bethesda taking up the franchise but I have got to say from what I've seen trailer wise it looks very interesting and the fact that it will provide hours upon hours gameplay is a plus for me. AND there is no DRM! System Specs as listed at Gamespy as of Today...

Okay, I am embarressed to ask this question :blush:, but when making a post how do you make multiple links? For example, you are researching computer parts for a new build but before pulling the trigger you ask for feedback on your choices that you are going to purchase from NewEgg. So you...

I recently built a second family computer from some solid left over hardware from a socket 939 system. I also utilized a Samsung 17" CRT that is 6+ years old and still chugging along. The system is rock solid. The only issue is that when we go to use backgrounds (the kind you can download...

I purchased Gothic Universe which contains Gothic 1, 2 +expansion, and 3. I plan on just loading one version at a time. I know that in Gothic 1 one can play either a Warrior, Mage, or Ranger. My question is, can you combine the skills to make your hero multiclass or is this game designed to...

I am about to install and play this game for the very first time. My question is are there any issues you know of that this game has with a dual core processor? I did do research but I can't find an answer to my question. Thanks.

I have a slew of VHS tapes from years ago and I want to burn their content to DVD. I have the PC system to handle video editing but I don't have a clue on what I need to transfer the VHS tapes from my VCR to my computer. So, what do I need? The only way I know is to capture them from my VCR...

I know this forum isn't a tech site per se, but as I have said in other posts I often find just as good advice here as I have in other designed tech websites. So... I will try to keep shorter than War and Peace. My second rig is a Pentium 3 system that is 6+ years old ASUS TUL2-C mobo...

I have an old P3 system that I let my son use for internet browsing, email, etc. It has been rock solid for 6+ years until lately and I think the issue of not booting properly is that the master CD-ROM gave up the ghost. And so I took that out hoping that is all it will take. Here is my...

Right now there are several good deals for portable harddrives: Western Digital's Passport, Seagate's FreeAgent Go, and Maxtor's One Touch Mini. I don't have a clue as to reliability and dependability of these portables though I have read some horror stories of failure rate. I have also read...

I will be purchasing two video clips for use on a multi-media computer. I am really ignorant on audio formats so I was wondering which format is universal and can be used with Windows Media Player: MPG1 or WMV? Thanks!

Please pardon my ignorance but I am still trying to get the hang of files and folders for MP3s. I have a 2gb flash drive Creative MuVo V100. It provides 3 folders, A, B, and C plus I can create one myself. 1. I know how to rip, syncronize, and name tracts. Are these lists then considered...

So last night I am over at our local mall and I stop in at the GameStop store. They have a demo playing Might & Magic V. I really know nothing about this series and I am not a fan of turned based games. However, I had a blast! What can you tell me about this series and where do I want to...

Has anyone here used PayPal and could you please tell me your experiences? I have found sonething on eBay that I can't find anywhere else but the seller wants PayPal. Is it safe? I have heard conflicting reports? What are the costs involved? What do yoiu need to give them by way of information?

Anyone watch this? I don't watch all that much TV but this is one series that kept me tuning in every week. Thursday night's two hour final was excellent.

This one has me really stumped. My son has made a list of songs in several Library Options: Creative Media Source and/or Windows Media Player. They are in MP3 format and were downloaded from the internet (yes, they are fully legal; I won't allow otherwise). The thing is I can't burn from...
