I've had an 8790 for 3 years and recently had to reload my OS due to a HD going bad, and I was reminded about all the video problems all over again. I have always had the video instability issue on my 8790 from day one and there is...

This has all been said before, but: have you removed the keyboard and coverplate and blown out all the dust? I am amazed at how much dust and hair build up in mine. Every 6 months or so, there is significant enough dust to pick out in...

I have a similar situation to G-Omaha. But I've been using the Omega Drivers since day one on my 8790. My system is a little unstable at the 407GPU/270Memory clock settings. I found that as soon as I try to do anything graphically...

My 8790 still works pretty well, and holds its own against most systems. The high points: Sweet display, twin HDs, 3.43mHz extreme P4-CPU, and 7 slot memory cards built-in. I use the memory slots all the time, very handy. I hate...

I can run the game, but barely. It runs much slower than any of the other new games that I can run at (slightly) higher resolutions. I need to run it at 800x600 with very LOW settings just to get a framerate over 25 FPS. I did...

Damn, Jertc that sux. How old is your 8790? I'm afraid thet mine will do the same thing right after it turns 1 year old and the warranty runs out. I used to think that if a computer didn't have problems in the first few months of...

You hit all the high points. I move to reformatting and reinstalling very quickly when Windows acts in unexplainable ways. I'd hate to have a Trojan running or a keystroke logger under Windows hosing it up, but keep using the PC...

I agree with G-man here, at least this is what the owners manual that came with my 8790 says. When using the PC primarily on AC power, Sager recommends each month discharging the battery completely and then recharging to get the best...

Okay, I didn't mean to say you were a 'meanie' khu, and you're right that Meedio needs to spend time and money to get it right. All I meant was that it sounded like a reasonable request, and instead of folks posting that they will...
