The SpeedBoost gimmick won't do anythin to boost performance if you aren't using exclusive "SpeedBoost" devices in your network. I'd also recommend a Linksys Cable modem. It should be compatible with your ISP, considering most of them only require a DOCSIS2.0 compliance. If you are only using the router to share the internet, the WRT54G is a perfect solution.

Drogadon posted:I have a Radeon 9600 and two identical Acer LCDs, the radeon has VGA + DVI-I, my LCDs are VGA-only. Do you have another DVI->VGA adapter to test? If not it may just be the port on your video card. Also see if you can tinker around with any settings in ATI control panel to make any adjustments to the DVI connected VGA LCD.

the godzilla of pudding posted:When I take my laptop somewhere where it can't be plugged in, I always turn the brightness on the screen all the way down in hopes to prolong the battery life. However, if I'm outdoors or in a well-lit room, I have to turn the brightness up to see it and I feel guilty and worried that my battery will run out quickly. Yes, the backlight in the LCD monitor consumes quite a bit of power. Turning down the brightness is an effective way to prolong battery life. Some manufacturers also have "horsepower" throttling services that can run to slow down the PC and use less juice when unplugged.

I hear all of this talk about S-IPS, TN and other LCD panels. What exactly are the differences? I just bought my first LCD (Samsung SyncMaster 2200WM) and its nice enough for me, and it was only $250 at Frys.
