    Office 2007 GPO Deployment

    Not sure if this has been resolved anywhere or not, but I'm having one issue in using GPO to deploy Office 2007. When I have the GPO uninstall Office 2003, then install 2007, I get an error that says the ose00000.exe is not responding. The Office 2007 install then stalls. If the machine is...

    Good Trade?

    Seems to me like that's a pretty solid deal for you... I'm not a huge fan of small form-factor cases like the Shuttle, leaves little to no room for much expansion if needed, but I've got two Shuttle HTPC systems that are two of the best machines in my house, so they do work fine. Have you seen...

    Laptop Fan Add-on??

    NewEgg actually has quite a few. I would say anything around $15+ is worth the investment...you do get what you pay for! http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Manufactory=&PropertyCodeValue=2768%3A17102&description=&MinPrice=&MaxPrice=&SubCategory=319&Submit=Property

    Laptop Fan Add-on??

    You know...they actually work fairly well. It really depends on what you use your laptop for, I think. If you usually use your laptop on a desk somewhere, or you don't mind lugging around the extra weight with the cooler, then it is a pretty good investment. They do drop the temperature of...

    Laptop Fan Add-on??

    Best Buy does sell them in most of the stores that I have been in. I think most people suggest online because we can't bear to spend the prices that a place like Best Buy would mark up to! The ones that I think work the best would be the ones that you just sit your laptop on. the are about 1...

    New stuff coming, need installation advice.

    RAM won't be a problem...99% of the time! I wouldn't worry about that...just make sure the case is unplugged when you put it in. (Obviously!) Your computer will automatically recognize it...(hopefully!) and you will be able to check in your system props in Windows. The same goes for the vid...

    Quick question about CPU's

    Yes, CPUs are considered microchips. Gaara was right in saying that the term "microchip" is SO broad, that it basically encompasses every piece of circuitry in a computer nowadays. I'm sure you've all seen this definition, but I thought it was worth posting. Microchip: A small, silicon...

    How can you tell the week

    There should be a 4 digit sequence somewhere that will have an obvious date in it. So, if you see an "05" anywhere, than you are looking in the right place. For example, if you see 0515...then it was made in the 15th week of 2005. I think on the processor you have...that is actually...

    remote control

    Yeah...I've seen something that would work...I'm trying to remember the company, though. Googling as we speak. Basically, the company just makes an IR remote-controlled power switch. All you would need to do would be to put it in-line on your main power switch. When you hit the button the...

    New heat sink and weird stuff happens...

    This can happen for a few reasons. The first one is the most simple: Your new heatsink is not cooling the card effectively. This can result in picture distortion, or total loss eventually. This is the first thing that I would check, because if this is the problem, you could lose more than...
