Reply to Power supply-Graphics Card compatibility in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

[quote]Do you have any idea who made that power supply? Can you find out from the manufacturer?[/quote] NOand YES - BC - but I made my own test with the power supply before deciding to use it. Everything is stable and I monitor the system during hard use and no problems thus far and I have mostly life time warranty on everything here in the system. So I'm too worried. But as I said - it was tested well under heavy loads and no problems voltage changes or spikes.

Reply to Ever Wonder Why the World is in an Economic Mess in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Simple - we want the gold and silver reserve notes back so we have to crash all that paper money markets to do so. Paper is just that - nothing but paper. So without the money being backed by something - it is not worth a thing. Like a lot of other things here in this world today. But till it all comes down and crashes to give way to the new system we will all suffer loss and a lot of bad headaches. Just get rid of the CEO's and the politicians along with those so call

Say John just check the numbers! You ask a simple question - but it is not going to be a simple answer. No Way! I see it like this... 1. How many new computers are being sold on the market today? 2. Who is buying them? 3. Do people really care about Skinning their computer? and not but least... 4. How much if any is a good price to make people think about buying something now that the economy is going bad. {meaning how bad is it an

Reply to What is best,Turn computer off everynight in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Only time I turn mine off is to clean the dust from the fans and case as such is needed once a month for me. Then and only if I need to remove a device or hardware which can not be removed via remove hardware cmd. Most hard drives today are made to stay running all the time. Not saying it is not good to turn them off. Being I have an external Western Digital Book which if I am not using it... I remove it and shut it down till needed. Sort of just sits there on the bookshe

Reply to Still no go on Windows 7 update soon? in Fences WinCustomize Forums

If you downloaded from the link at Neowin - it is a bad download and installs all wrong. The download at the win7 site is good - but if you do a clean install to a new partition - be sure after it copies the files and goes to restart you remove the disc from the computer. Most usually it tries to reinstall from boot and you get caught in the rollback circle. Thus removing or stopping the disc from running at startup works fine after the system has copied files to the new partition.</p

I actually hate the Win 7 desktop... terrible start menu and the tray along with the task bar is far fetched completely. Maybe
