    Poss power supply issues

    So I have this odd problem, where I will start my PC up and about 5 minutes in it will cold shut down. No blue screen, just flick off. The odd thing is that after that initial shut down, when it restarts it will run fine for a good while. I just did a fresh Windows 7 install. The HD & GPU are...

    Question about power strips and energy consumption

    So we're looking to reduce our electricity bill (isn't everybody.) Of course the first thing I wanted to do was to get in the habit of unplugging things. If I purchased a surge protector for an outlet, even a cheapo one, does flipping the switch off on the strip achieve the same results as...

    SEGA Nomad Screen Issues

    It's been a good 8 or 9 years since I used my Nomads, so I'm thinking maybe my perception is a little off since I have a nice HDTV now, and generally don't play old games, Nomad #1's screen seems faded when looking at it directly (head 90 degrees to screen). It gets a great picture when viewed...

    Eliminating the cable bill

    Been tinkering with an old PC on setting up a multimedia system for my primary TV. I stopped paying for cable a couple months ago, I didn't see the purchase in a $80 monthly charge for someone who really only watched maybe an hour or two a week TV. Before I go further, here's my current setup...

    Warriors Orochi 2 for Bladestorm or Dynasty Warriors 6

    Have a Warriors Orochi 2 I haven't played in ages, want to go to DW6 or Bladestorm. My copy is the typical sheltered copy, looks new. Ignore the bad / mediocre reviews in WO2. If you like these games "more of the same" is a great thing to your ears. I got alot of playtime from it. No CAG...
