HyperThreading: HyperProblem!

CyberGenX
Running a P4 3. 06C with an Intel 865GRH Motherboard, 1GB DDR400MHz in dual channel mode and hyperthreading enabled. I notice when I try to capture video from WinDVR, UleadDVD Workshop, Movie Maker or Premiere Pro the app hangs almost immediately.

RAID1 storage most reliable?

ODiN
I'm looking for the best long-term solution to archiving important files, and while optical media like DVD+/-R may arguably be the most common, I can't help but think that maybe a mirrored RAID setup would be more reliable.

MLax148
I was looking at to buy a new card to complete my system and was looking to spend around 150$. I saw the Ati Radeon 9800 SE and the more expensive eVga Gefrorce Fx 5900 SE. The game call of duty actually came with the 5900 se so i saw it as the better deal( among othe better graphics processing features).

External IDE Enclosures

ViolentGreen
I am looking to get an external hard drive enclosure to store media files on to access from two computers. This is the one I am considering. I notice that it has two firewire ports in the back. Does this mean that I can have it hooked up to two machines at once? I have never used an external hard drive or enclosure ...

Any portable MP3 players usable with NT4?

umikun
Greetings all! I'm considering buying a portable MP3 player. I have a Pentium II 400 MHz with NT4 SP6. My motherboard has two USB ports, but I don't know if I can get them working with NT4. I have a load of MP3s on my hard drive that I'd like to take with me on the go.
