8800GTS SC with FSX and BSOD?
September 30th, 2009 Posted by: admin
I run Microsoft Flight Simulator X with everything just about as high as it goes (i turned off stupid stuff like a/c casts shadows on itself and the cars) but scenery and aircraft detail is as good as it gets. i will be on the tarmac tweaking settings for optimal performance and everything will be okay. i start going down the runway for takeoff and as soon as i hit like 80 knots my speakers make these repeated click click click and then i get the blue screen. i just fresh installed the game on the other hard drive and still no result. what could i possibly do to make that not happen? oh yea, im on xp so should i upgrade to vista? i used to have it on my old computer but it didnt seem all that great but if i ti can make my system better, thats what ill do. btw, i run Test Drive Unlimited maxxed out and no lag or blue screen…need more info, email me at a_zawisza01@yahoo.com

Is there a universal sata laptop adapter?
September 30th, 2009 Posted by: admin
I just recently purchased a laptop and when I received it there was no cable or adapter to hook up my new hard drive. When I purchased the laptop the previous owner removed the hard drive and apparently a plastic connector piece. I am using a Compaq F572us and it uses a Sata II hard drive. Just curious if there’s anything I can do, it’s the weekend so I can’t contact HP directly. Thanks in advance.

I just ordered NetZero as my dial up internet service, because the area that I am living in?
September 30th, 2009 Posted by: admin
does not offer an affordable cable internet service. All I need is a phone line and plug it into the back of the computer and the wall. They are supposed to be sending me a CDROM to connect the service. Am I going about this correctly, I’m just worried about screwing this up.

Can I put ps3 harddrive into a WD case?
September 30th, 2009 Posted by: admin
If i were to take a Western Digital Portable hard drive, remove it from its case, could i put it in my ps3(to be its new hard drive) and then take the old ps3 hard drive(which is a seagate brand) and use it inside the WD case to work as a separate portable hard drive?

do you think that SD cards could replace a DVD or CD in the future?
September 30th, 2009 Posted by: admin
All you would have 2 so would insert ur sd movie or song library card in a portable media player n there u go . BUt still there might be no sd cards because it might me no removeable n it just saves it on a mini , portable hard drive.

What’s with the new Xbox360?
September 30th, 2009 Posted by: admin
Lets clear things up, I owned an xb360, so not to sound like an xb360 hater, but what’s up with the new “Elite”? I saw on Gamespot the unvailing of the new console. People are all hyped up about it and almost everyone wanted to buy one, and those are the ones that already own a 360. Imagine this, the new features are the color black, the HDMI port, 120GB hard drive, and the price = 479. To me it’s the exact same xb360 with a new color, a larger hard drive and an HDMI port that really won’t be necessary since the majority of the games display 720p-1080i anway. Ok, here is where it gets confusing; the poeple on the forums complained about the PS3 price that it cost too much and yet they are willing to spend basically another 500 on top of already owning a 360 to buy an “Elite”. Put it this way, they are willing to spend roughly 900 on two 360s than on one super computer in the PS3 that already has everything built-in. A wise choice, you tell or victims of M$ making money off ignorance?
There are rumors that M$ will have the larger hard drive as an accessory. Also rumors has it that the premium xb360 might be build with an HDMI port built-in. So why waste so much money buying what is considered to be the same xb360 basically when you can just waste money upgrading? You know, a lot of people on Gamespot said that the color black for the new xb360 Elite looks conspicuously like the PS3 and were desinged to compete with the PS3. I read that some even went as far as calling it beautiful. Of course it is, it’s the exact same xb360 that has been spray painted black. Come on now. Lets don’t get carry away. I already like the original designed, so adding a few things and changing the color won’t “WOW” me. I actually like the original white color better to tell you the truth.
Keep in mind that I’ve read a few people did said they were deciding to own both.
