2nd Video card in XPS 600 by
I just took delivery of an nVidia 8800 GTS to
go into my XPS 600 along with the nVidia 7900
GTX.
Does it make any difference which slot the two
card are in?
I would want games to use the monitor connected
to the 8800.

Color Calibration of 30" Dell 3007 by
How likely is it that the new Dell 3007 can be adequately
color calibrated for an amateur Photoshop CS and video editor?
I crave the high resolution, but want to be sure I will have a
reasonable color flow across my scanner, monitor and printer...
Thanks,

Wireless PCI or USB for desktop by
Getting a new desktop, putting it in a room that is hard to
run a cable to, so want to add it to my wireless network.
Any preferred solution? I see a number of USB based devices,
as well as PCI at newegg.

Memtest-86 v3.2 by
My new machine gave me 4 blue screens, so I fired up memtest.
Lots of failures.
I have never had a failure before. Is memtest-86 v3.2 a valid
test for an XPS-600 with the 3.2 gHz EE dual core chip?
Should I let Dell replace the memory or just send the machine back?
I waited a long time to get...

Monitor Question: 2407WFP vs. 2407FPW?? by
I've seen both of these on the Dell website, and I have asked Dell Reps
about it.
Some people have said it's a typo.
Some people have said they just changed the model name to be consistant with
the 2405FPW.
Some people don't have a clue as to why there are two...

Salesmanship by
A friend of mine has just ordered a Dell laptop and the salesman has
convinced him to pay extra for XP Professional. The tale he was told
was that if he didn't have the professional version he wouldn't be
able to run Vista because the Home Edition wasn't good enough.
I fully understand that in...

general. I'm planning on taking my laptop along on ATV rides to use
with my GPS to show trails, etc. I'm planning on using some 3" foam to

I have a pocket digital recorder that I want to interface to my laptop.
I want to transfer the audio recordings to disk. I am sure there are
some impedance matching issues here as I will be going from the earphone

input is mono...

Long term 100% CPU by

Is there a detriment to running your processor at 100% so long as the
cooling fans are running properly and there is adequate air flow? I
have an Inspirion 8500 and started playing with SETI@home s/w which
punches it up to 100% . The Threadmaster s/w that supposedly tones
down the load on the CPU...

Serial number of Inspirion 8500 by
'Captain' Kirk DeHaan
Where on the system is the serial number? I see the service tag and a

I've got an 8500. I have been having worlds of trouble trying to get
a wireless PC card to work in this system. I've tried Linksys,
Netgear and a YDI Diamond card. The latter is the only one that would

Hot plug PCMCIA? by
'Captain' Kirk DeHaan
I've got an 8500 and just bought a wifi card for the PCMCIA slot. Can
PCMCIA cards be hot plugged providing you "unmount" them? Or is it
card specific?
