For the past month or so my computer seems to be much slower than usual, even when running through
tabs on FireFox or when MSN notifications come through they seem a tad laggy. Playing Gunz the
graphics seemed a bit bung (as in lagging behind), I mostly thought bleh nothing serious. The other
day I went out and cleaned all the dust bunnies out of my comp, fans, cpu fan and heatsink, mobo,
nooks and crannies etc to find that my motherboard is reporting my cpu as being 70-80 degress
celcius just in the BIOS :| (motherboard temp is around 25-30 which is normal). And toda...

Hello, Though I love having the fastest and the greatest, and am yearning to go to Best Buy and
purchase one of the new Terabyte hard drives, I still am passionate about the old legacy systems,
the ones that made history. The 386s, the 486s... I personally own a 486 (with Windows 95 though,
it was upgraded) and an old Hewlett Packard NetServer LHII with Windows 2000. The server weighs
about as much as I do, and takes up a ton of space, but I still keep the old behemoth around
(it's name when you go to system properties is Leviathan /biggrin.gif' border='0' sty...

Hey, if anyone has any information on xbox controller (s-type) schematics could you post here with
links or info if any exsists? so me and my buddy had this crazy idea for an xbox controller mod.
Basically we're merging a pair of joysticks with the controller so that you can use the
joysticks and their buttons instead of a regular controller. the reason for this being the way that
the buttons and joysticks on the official controller are spaced out and for certain games where you
need to hit the buttons as you're moving the joysticks this becomes highly ackward,...

Hey, i have been looking through a lot of Laptops lately Macs and PCs and there are a couple of
queries that i have. I have noticed that say 1 laptop has these specs (part of): Intel Celeron M
Processor 350 1.30GHz 400 MHz FSB 1 MB Cache and then i see one with these specs: Intel
Celeron M 340 1.5 GHz processor 400 MHz FSB 512 Kb Cache what is the FSB and what kind of
difference does the size Cache make, what kind of data is stored in the Cache and would a Laptop
