stay the hell away from Sceptre/Wally Mart BF sales by Flasherly[_2_]
Least for a monitor/tv - notably SCEPTRE. Not just WallyMart but it's a brand sold all over. Mine crapped out in the most proverbial sense -- "to the day" the warrantee expired. Scepter F*ckers. Went to BBuy and bought their house Insignia - paid extra for their affiliations to a 5/yr....

Revised score.ini by Dustin[_3_]

Raspberry Pi by Seymore4Head
I have always been a tech fan, but I really have no need to have one of these in my car as I hardly drive the thing any more. I stumbled on this link by accident. I was watching this video and the guy is complaining about trying to mount a keyboard in his car. It just made me think of how cool...

Amazon Kindle for PC causes BSOD in Windows 8.1 by RayLopez99
Blue Screen of Death caused by Amazon Kindle for PC software in Windows 8.1, with a modern computer system (few years old). Happens every so often, and I'm fairly certain it's caused by this program, which takes forever to synch, and further fails to download all books properly (some reside on...

Micro ATX PSU- What manufacturer? by Al Drake
I'm looking for a replacement for a Micro- ATX PSU mounted in a Surveillance DVR and would like some recommendations on who makes a good one. The one I'm trying to replace is obviously a cheap one as it crapped out after a short time. Made in China with RSY 625M V1.3 on label but I come up...

Question about SSDs by Charlie Hoffpauir
I have a SSD (Samsung 840 series 250 GB) and I decided to shrink the partition containing my C drive (with Win 7 and installed programs) to make a bit more room in the second partition for data. It seems to "work" using Win 7 Computer Management, but it takes a long time, much longer than it does...

Okay, it's winter time here, relative humidity is low, so there's a lot of static build-up on your clothes. Now, I've noticed that during those static discharges, I can hear the computer immediately exits sleep mode. Even if the discharge didn't happen anywhere near the computer, it may have...

New ASUS motherboard info by Motor T[_2_]
I see an ASUS Z97-E motherboard on Newegg I would like to get. I can't find any reviews for this board anywhere. Nor can I find a QVI list of qualified memory. Is this a new board, or is it older/unreliable? Any help would be appreciated as it quite inexpensive compared to other Z97 boards....

Getting data off a pre-USB laptop with a dead floppy drive. by AL_n
Hi all, I have an old Compaq Armada 4220T laptop with no USB ports and a dead floppy drive. Floppy drives for these old laptops do occasionally surface but they are not cheap. I'm never likely to need this laptop again, after I salvage the old data files from its hard drive. How can I get the...
