Here's a thought, could I potentially ground the plexi on the aluminum desk legs? You know, kinda like the anti-static wrist straps?

computergeek19 - My desk is custom built (by me :)) with plexi over MDF for the top. I'm sure the plexi must be a dust magnet.

rendermandan - Now that you mention it, I'm sure it is way overdue...

I've tried tuning down the game display settings already and have still locked up or crashed. I've tried looking out on the EQ2 forums, but have had difficulty navigating it since they changed the...

I am getting really annoyed by the amount of dust that seems to collect on, in, and around my computer. If there's a place for dust to settle on my desk, it will. Does anyone know a good way to...

I'm guessing that would be in the nvidia software, correct? I'm at work right now so I'll have to try this evening.

Well, game just crashed on her PC. Nothing showed up in the event viewer, though.

I don't think I've checked the event viewer afterwards, so I think I'll at least give that a shot next time. The only other thing I can think of is that I'm using a driver set with know issues. I...

Almost every time my wife plays EQ2 on her computer it locks up. I've tried various things like changing the PSU, video card, and memory. Even went as far as to attach a small fan to the video...

Wow, that P190 looks awesome! I just got my P180B in a couple weeks ago.

Well, unfortunately, the place I work has seen it fit to block photobucket, myspace, and youtube. Those are only the ones I know about so far. That really sucks because now I can't see a lot of the...

I just bought an Antec P180B and the thought occurred to me that it might be possible to mod a LCD into the door. However, I'm not sure how much space there is between the door and the case itself. ...

I did change my mind and go for an nVidia card. For price concerns, I went with a GeForce 7600 GS. It was half the cost of the ATI card.

I've got the go-ahead to start buying parts for my new PC. I opted for the ATI Radeon X1950 Pro, but haven't settled on a motherboard yet. I don't really have any intention of using Crossfire or...

Maybe I should get her to do "virtual" scrapbooking... Instead of using scissors and glue she can learn how to cut and paste. I've already downloaded GIMP and Sketchup, so she already has the tools...

It's not just the materials that get expensive, but it's also the totes (big bags on rollers), cutting supplies, stencils, adhesives, stamps, stamp pads, etc. Oh and not to mention the weekend...

Cool, thanks all. I'll have to check these out when I get home tonight.

I had planned on building a truly awesome system this year, but unfortunately it seems my wife ended up blowing the budget on scrapbooking supplies and assorted scrapbooking paraphynalia. Anyone...

Does anyone have any good recommendations for where to get electronics supplies such as prototyping boards and assorted bits and parts in the US?

Thanks!

I'm kinda foggy on what it is, but I think it's like taking bits of paper or pictures from magazines or whatever and using a special glue to cover an object with it. Kind of like a collage, I think....

Well, even though I haven't done any kind of significant mod, my wife may actually be the first in my family to have one posted here. The other day I gave her free reign to do whatever kind of...

From what I'm hearing/reading a good multibit screwdriver and a set of regular screwdrivers are both worth their salt. I might be able to fenagle my wife into loosening up the purse strings to...

It used to run pretty stable with the 350, but it just recently started acting up.

I know there is a thread similar to this, but I didn't want to hijack it.

On to the problem... While playing EQ2, my computer will randomly lock up. It's an older computer (3-4 years old anyway)...

Cool, thanks!

I have what might seem like a really stupid question about screwdrivers. What kind do you use: ones with interchangeable bits or actual no-kidding, stand-alone screwdrivers? Also, is it really that...
