8500GT????

bardoksan

I've been looking at the 8500GT video cards, and in all of the pictures of all the cards, I don't see a secondary power supply port. Do these cards not require a secondary power supply?? I was thinking of getting a second 7950GT so that I can use SLI, but one 7950GT is $200 and two 8500GT cards would be about $200 ...

Converting "Dynamic" to "Basic" Hard Disk

hardwarecrazy

I recently moved to VISTA Home Premium from W2KS and moved two of my disks to the new system. Unfortunately VISTA Premium is not capable of detecting Dynamic type of Hard Disks-only Ultimate can. If I want to convert to Basic, VISTA warns me that I will loose all data in that process.

The Sims Makin' Magic -- Trouble playing

Anthrodraco

I recently installed the Sims Deluxe, Hot Date, House Party, Vacation and Unleashed (in that order) onto my Vista computer. Things worked great, I added some downloaded skins, nothing was slow, so I figured I'd install the Sims Makin' Magic too (I don't have Superstar).
