Thread Starter 
First off I have firefox and a big issue as well. Every once in a while my bookmarks and everything will be completly erased. It's very annoying to have tons of stuff you need vanish... Any ways to solve this?

Second I have a few questions about video cards. I know they have ram on them but where are they? On this for instance...



Where is the ram?

And lastly... What is Vivo? What does it do and is it worth it...

Thanks for clearing this up

well, first off, i have circled the ram in red

not sure why you needed to know that, but whatever.

second, vivo = video in video out. Basically, the card comes with a breakout box of an array of video inoputs and outputs. Weather or not yuou need them is up to you.

You can use it to hook up say a VCR to your pc to capture video to convert to dvd, or hook up a ps2 to play it on your moniter, or hook up your computer to a TV....ect ect.

Tells you how to back up your profile so if you lose the shits you can restore it. As far as not losing it in the first place, stop visting pr0n sites that crash Firefox and keep Firefox updated.

Another thing i thought of real quick... does vivo include a tv tuner? Can I watch TV on my desktop? And more importantly can I record what I watch using it? Or do I just have to stop being cheep and fork out 100 bucks for a real tuner? =P
