more than 2 eide hard drives by Algo
How can I install more than 2 eide drives into my computer system? I've heard that only 2 at a time are possible. EIDE's are cheaper and since I bought a digital camcorder I would like to store the videos on disk so I can reuse the tapes.

More USB questions by Ben Fullerton
My USB education is progressing, but slowly. After getting error messages on the installation of a new 5 port Mercury USB2 card, I found (noticed) the PnP/PCI Device Listings in the BIOS boot screens. I was surprised to find that some of the IRQ numbers are the same for more then one device....

XP2800: barton vs t'bred by Li'l ol' me
I recently ordered an XP2800 thoroughbred and got sent an XP2800 barton. I should be delighted with the barton having 512kb and all, but I've lost about 200mhz and might as well have bought an XP2600(?) So are there any credible comparisons (ie benchmarks) of the two so I can see what I've...

Motherboard and CPU recommendations - UK by Paul Greer
http://www.microdirect.co.uk is a cheap online place. I've never had any problems with returns but I live near their real-world store(Manchester) so I've always gone to the physical returns counter and spoken to a human being. I dunno how the online service would differ. £195 will get you an Asus...

Replacing the processor Fan by Andrew
Hi, I need to replace my processor fan with a new one because it keeps making a loud noise when booting. I am currently using the fan/heatsink that came with my boxed Athlon 1900 XP Processor.

Removable harddrive racks, bad idea? by Kb
Hi, I'm about to buy a 80gb 7200rpm harddrive, either a Maxtor, seagate or WD, 2mb or 8mb cache, I was thinking of getting a removable harddrive rack for it, but then I got to thinking that these drives tend to run alittle hot, and maybe it might be a bad idea for my drives lifespan. I was...

USB External 56K modem, comments? by Adrian
http://www.mwave.com/mwave/Spec1/1328812.html Anyone got any opinions about this modem? I suppose the key attraction is that it's USB host powered, so no power supply or serial cable to worry about. Do USB 56K modems work just as good as a regular 56K modem with serial cable? I've not got any...
