  1. Good god! :w00t: That's insane! I feel better about the machine im building already, I just bought the P5WD2 and infact it just arrived no less than 10 mins ago! Schweeeeet :thumbup

  2. Yeah I mean like that. It depends on your video card if you can span it or not I would think. How old is the laptop, make, model? Once they're installed you can goto your display properties and click on the monitor #2 and check extend my desktop to this monitor to span it.

  3. Alright, thanks again as usual... haven't seen you in a while, I thought you disappeared! ;) As far as the fans, the only fan that came with the case was the big one thats mounted in the back. There's a 'mount' for a fan to cool the hard drives, but no fan... was it supposed to come with?? Also, theres no fan for the 'cpu vent' if ya know what I mean, I forget what its called, I wasn't expecting one though. As far as the keyboard, mouse and speakers... I already have a logitech set... wireless kb and mouse that work great and a nice Altec sound system, so thats covered. I'm expecting the Mobo here tomorrow or Sat. hopefully, possible monday :no:

    Thanks for the suggestions on mounting the CPU, and yes I'm gonna wait on it untill I can get the cash, I decided on the 3.4 2M L2, Ht, 64-bit... around $400 anywhere I can find, if you know somewhere cheaper PLEASE let me know.

    UPDATE: P5WD2 just arrived... WOOOHOOOO!! :thumbup

  4. I'm not sure Arvetus, I've never came across that. The only thing I could suggest is to revert to a previous backup if you have one and possibly try a third-party add/remove program to use inplace of the windows util. If thats the only thing that's being affected, if it were me, I wouldn't reload windows.. just go for the 3rd-party app, although I'm not sure about add/remove windows components...

  5. I take it you're not doing any Visual programming and this isn't occuring due to something you've created? Check here and I don't know if this one will be of any help or not. It suggests a service pack... but I'm guessing you've already got it. Have you ran spyware/virus scans? I'd research the error and the files involved on good 'ol google.

  6. Sorry if this is posted somewhere else, I've searched but couldn't find this exact topic. Just curious as to what everyone's opinion on the best benchamrking app is. I've got 3DMark05 and SiSoft Sandra 2005 SR2a.... any others that are really good? TIA.
