replacement

This post could go in anywhere I suppose, but, I chose the Windows 7 Forum because I'm partial to 7. I just iced my Logitech diNovo keyboard when I knocked a glass of water over, right on the darned thing! Thus, I'm looking for a really good tactile, tenkeyless, Cherry-switched, replacement and...

Another of my WDC drives is biting the dust (WD30EZRX)...not that it seems to matter what the model is, because I've now owned a number of WDC drives, and none of them has lasted through their warranty period. It seems to be becoming a vicious RMA circle. The drive that I'm now having to...

Somewhat to my surprise, because of the reputation of FedEx, I've been having some delivery problems with them. Of course, the degree of the problem varies, depending on the person making the deliveries, and it not always obvious who that person is, when they don't knock on the door, and leave...

Microsoft's 13-year CEO announced today his plans to retire within the next year, which surely brings closure to many people who were always skeptical of his behaviour as a person and strategies for the company itself. It's been announced Microsoft is working with both founder Bill Gates and...

I don't tend to think of it as computer hardware, but in essence it is, because about the only way that I ever use it is in conjunction with the computer. I'm in the process of applying for an RMA for a couple of Logitech Optical Wheel Trackball mice, but one thing that they asked for that I...

I'm now blowing taps over the video card in my HTPC, and about to order the card in the titleas it's replacement, but before doing so I wanted to see if anyone has anything negative to say about it, or if they feel that there is a better choice it it's price range? EDIT: I forgot to include in...

Is the Nexus 7 so internally complex that you can't change the battery? Perhaps not. Check out this video, as we rip a broken one right open. For the record, although our sites emphasize Windows products, Android products are great as well. Too bad this one took a turn for the worse. We had to...

Are the Accessories gone in Windows 8? I tried to find the calculator and recorder, but have they been discontinued? If so, any suggestions on replacements? Thank you.

Hello, For a while now, i've been getting these bluescreens, I've reinstalled windows, reseated everything in the PC, done everything in my power to try and fix them, and usually I can do it myself with WinDbg, but I'm stumped now. I really have no idea what they are saying at all. In the...

I just received a replacement drive for a WD5001AALS 500GB Black that had some bad sectors. The "new" drive is a WD1001FALS white label 1000GB. While I'm not very pleased about the label, I thought that the size difference sort equaled things out, but I wasn't sure how it would effect my...

Hi there, this computer is working away for surveillance purposes. It has been crashing since installation, maybe once every two days. The computer does not restart neither shuts down. It justs freezes, and happened once when I was there. I tried to turn on the display but it acted like nothing...

When did computers start using this thing called ueifi I believe? Confusing to say the least and for me at least not that easy to get to. The only complaint as such I have with my new Sony laptop. I never can seem to remember which function key gets me there, and from what I have seen of it...

After a long wait of 2 weeks I got my Hands on new Samsung NP550P5C-S02IN - Corei7 3610QM, 8GB DDR3 1600, Nvidia Geforce GT650M, and...... a 5400 rpm HDD :(Seagate Momentus ST1000LM024).....The system was not delivering the expected performance, so i did a benchmark of the HDD using...

Does anybody know any cool shell replacements? And I dont want these. List of alternative shells for Windows - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I've tried those and dont like them.

One of the more controversial aspects of Windows 8 is that the Start button has disappeared altogether — a conscious choice by Microsoft to encourage people to adopt and use the Metro interface. There’s not much chance of it officially returning, but there is a minor replacement of sorts built...

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this, though this one seems to be the closest to a general-hardware forum on this site. A couple of months back, I was having an issue with my CPU heatsink/fan not spinning at the correct speed. Upon examination, it was fairly clear the fan itself...

I have a desktop machine that I built and the ASUS motherboard died. ASUS sent me a replacement under warranty (exact same model). This machine is running Windows 7 Professional. I used to be able to access remote desktop from my other PCs using the DNS friendly name. Now I can only access...
