Ok, after looking around a bit, I've found two options that I think will work: 1) http://buy.advantech.com/Intel+Core+i7+i5+i3+Celeron+Mini/AIMB+201VG+DSA1E/model-AIMB-201VG-DSA1E.htm?country=USA&token=635503759765470058 2)...

Ok, so I need to set up a system where a media file is played across 3 screens, side-by-side, such that the 3 screens together display the single image. These would be large HDTV screens, so I would assume an HDMI output. Ideally the system would also play sound. Doesn't need to be anything...

Thanks! Everything seems to be in working order now.

It does not. I could try doing that. How would I do so?

I recently bought a Sandisk flash drive (32GB Cruzer Fit). It had been working fine, but then I lent it to my parents, who needed to move a large file around. However, after getting it back I can no longer open it. It shows up in my Favorites bar when I insert it, but when I click on that I get...

I have my volume set to 0, the lowest it can go. The issue is, I want to set it lower than that, and can't figure out how to do so.

Is this possible? Currently running Windows 7, using some plantronics headphones, and I'm finding myself constantly sitting at 0/100 volume, and beyond that also reducing the volume of most games to 10-20%. Even then, some things just remain too loud, especially in cases where I can't control...

Yeah, 16 GB was probably overkill anyways. I may end up upgrading later on anyways, but 8 is probably plenty. As for the independent displays, that's very good to know. I was looking at some other options, and all of them seemed fairly expensive. I'll have to look around and see if any of the...

I had noticed the smaller display, but that one plus the RAM upgrade is over my budget. (The 1080p version is $999) On second thought, though, I'll probably go with the larger one and just leave off upgrading the RAM for now. For the external display, I specifically want to be able to use the...

Ok, so after some more research, even with the cost of the two extra RAM sticks, the Ideapad is still cheaper than the ENVY, and with a better graphics card to boot. Upgrading the RAM also looks fairly easy, so that should be just fine. So, all that's left is to confirm that I'm not missing...

Ok, finally ready to actually buy the computer. I can actually go a little bit over 1k if there's a good deal that's worth it. Looks like the only deal of the ones you listed is the last one, HP ENVY, which I'm using as my current go-to option. Are there any other deals like this that have...

Thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to keep an eye on all three of those, and look for similar things in case the deals go away before I decide to buy.

I'm currently looking to buy a new laptop, which I intend to use mostly for work (aka: very light load), but also as a sort-of gaming rig for when I'm travelling. I don't need to be able to run the latest and greatest games by any means, but something that can run most games on low-medium...

What would you consider "trustable" names, in that case? Edit: For example, would this be better? Case/PSU: Antec ISK 300-150 Black 0.8mm cold rolled steel Mini-ITX Desktop Computer Case 150W Power Supply Or this, though the PSU may or may not be powerful enough. Case/PSU: Antec ISK 110 VESA...

I've been tasked with building new computers for everyone here at the office, since the current ones are starting to...show their age, to say the least. Anyways, as a rock-bottom bargain starting point, I came up with the following build: Case/PSU: APEX MI-008 Black Steel Mini-ITX Tower...

Yes to all, and I had to use the power button to turn it off, since I couldn't see anything on the screen. I've turned the computer on from a normal restart with the plug in the other slot, though, and get the same error. As for "jiggling", that was just a euphemism for messing around until it...

Another question: What's the best way to manage my two storage devices? Right now, I'm simply installing and downloading everything onto the SSD because that's where windows wants to put it. Can I somehow tell it to put everything onto the HDD by default instead, so then I can put the specific...

Well, I did need help, it just turns out that a few guys at the office have put together so many computers that they can do it blindfolded. (literally) However, now I'm having a bit of trouble. Up until now, I've had my monitor hooked into the motherboard directly, as opposed to the graphics...

Everything seems to be working fine, but for some reason I can't connect with steam. Internet is fine, I tried all the port forwarding, taking down my firewall, and no luck. It also didn't work at work, when I first set up my computer, which leads me to believe it's not an issue with the...

And computer is up and running! Going to see about downloading some games to run it through it's paces, but everything seems to be working great. Thanks again for all the help! (This was posted from the new computer, by the way)
