I wouldn't buy any of those brands you mentioned except OCZ and Antec, and Antec would be questionable for most people and probably a no-go for myself. But then again, I am in the habit of running 3 ROM drives, 4 hard drives, a Live...

The problem is since the components aren't getting enough power, in this case the video card, it isn't feeding the signal to the monitor. 200 watt is definetely not enough, my recommendation for that is a minimum of 300 watt and that...

You can find the info your looking for on the link provided. That site is pretty much the be all end all of video conversion and manipulation. Also try www.doom9.org I can tell you what you need to do, but its quite complicated. ...

Sorry about your problems, I just have to say that is a DAMN nice setup. That EL OCZ memory is some of the best you can have on an A64 system. The PSU too. Actually the whole setup is pretty much EXACTLY what I would build at the...

Why not just leave it on 24/7 ? I think that is your best course of action. I am a firm believer that it significantly prolongs the life of you Hard Drive to leave your computer on. What Alex was talking about is true, but the...
