Re: Windows 7 reporting hard drive failure on old and new HD
I may check it again. I tried wiggling all the wires and reconnecting them. Its strange. I played CIV 4 with my fiance all day today and it didnt do it once. I dont really notice a problem, and no program Ive run has found a problem other than my voltage being a little low.

Re: Lets discuss illegal drugs - and legal ones too
I just want to say that I am 30 years old and I did not try marijuana until last year. I have suffered with major depression, anxiety, and mild schizophrenia for as long as I can remember. I have tried every type of medication, trying to fix these problems. No legal medication has ever produced posi...

Re: Windows 7 reporting hard drive failure on old and new HD
yea problem is still there. could you link me to the correct file for me to download please. My computer is core 2 duo with a Samsung F3 HD103SJ as the only harddrive.

Windows 7 reporting hard drive failure on old and new HD
Ok I moved my computer (which has been working flawlessly before) into the other room and since then windows 7 reported an imminent hard disk failure. So I bought a new Samsung F3 HD103SJ to replace the Samsung HD501lj, that reported the error. The next day that hard drive reports the same error. I'...

Re: Unemployed Need Not Apply
Yea Ive been unemployed since I made the mistake of reporting another manager for stealing, so they decided to fire me instead of her? I graduated with a bachelors degree in management with many awards and honors and I can not find a job to save my life. I have years of experience in management, a g...

Re: Help setting up HDTV to internet through HDMI
Yea it works with sound etc. but I have to change the source everytime which is kinda annoying. Also if I switched to screen duplicate it cuts off the top part of the screen on my monitor because the resolution on the tv is a little different. I wish I could have both play at native resolution with ...

Help setting up HDTV to internet through HDMI
Hi I dont have much experience with multiple monitors so this is all new to me. I have a Sony HDTV kdp-51ws655 which I have connected to my computer through my Evga Geforce 260 GTX core 216's secondary DVI port via a DVI-to-HDMI adapter. I have gotten the picture working but I thought that I would b...

LOL, this reminds me. I was working as an usher at a movie theater. I was having a particularly bad day as I had a coke dumped on me <on purpose> and then later I was cleaning the hallway and this redneck walked up and said, "They should get robots to do that". I proceeded very quickly to blurt out,...

Communism will never work because people are more concerned with one upping their neighbors than they are concerned with their own needs and wants. While some people do turn to crime because of bad living situations I think that the majority of crime is not caused by this, but by the fact that peopl...

While the idea of a Communist society is beautiful in a way. All mankind doing what they want, and sharing the wealth; the nature of man is not setup in such a way to allow this to happen. People want to own a better car not because it gets better gas mileage or drives faster ect., they want it so t...

The really ironic part is that I went for a management degree because I thought it was a sure thing. Every business has managers, and my reasoning told me that if I wanted a solid career I should get a degree in something broad. I should have just saved the $25,000 I spent on college and tried to ge...

I have an Evga 260 core 216 and I would not describe it as loud. My gaming system isn't designed for silence but I could easily sleep with it on. Even while gaming its hard to hear it over the background noise of the room. If the ceiling fan is set on low then I cant even tell the computer is going.

Is my power supply dead? paperclip trick produces 1 fan spin
Having more trouble with new build. Shorted green and black wires on power supply with a paper clip and the fan spins for 1 second then stops. Does that mean its dead?

sounds like what happened during my new build. Take out the motherboard and try to start it outside of the case. The motherboard might be shorting out on the case. For me it was the back of the motherboard hitting the tray so I put a piece of notebook paper behind the motherboard and now have no mor...

Update: After putting the paper behind the motherboard it seems to be fine. The motherboard has a metal bar on the back to hold on the north bridge, and I also had a back plate for my TRUE. I wrapped the back plate of the TRUE with electric tape but I don't think that was the problem. Also noteworth...

Update: I taped a piece of paper behind the motherboard and reinstalled everything and it works! So I guess it was shorting out. Unfortunately now it has developed a new problem. Every 2-3 seconds the mouse stutters. This is consistent, it is happening exactly every 2-3 seconds. The sound seemed to ...
