How is the battery life? I might get one to replace my desktop for college next year.

I wasn't trying to diss you, i was just stating it was high, thats all.

You must be pretty tall.

No offense taken, really :).
Yeah I feel bad for you, that monitor does look pretty crappy
It is, when I turn it on there is like 15 mins of total fuzyness and not half as sharp as my Sony, anyways - will be getting a new one soon :).
you have the same DSL modem as me.

is it really geeky that i can tell just by looking at the lights?

Speedstream 5200? If it is, are you aware of the firmware upgrade that makes it a router? :), its being used as one there, hub is behind the monitor.

:D.

yea no problem, i got them from this lady named Daisy, she has a store on ebay and online, i think shes a reseller for grado

i got the headphones for $500 and the amp for $300 from her, shipping included

although there are better amps out there for $200, i like the grado one cause its the only one that runs on battery, u can get it with AC or BATTERY but not both (two 9volt batteries, about 50+ hours on battery). plus some ac amps emit a slight hissing noise from the adapter/outlet, batteries tend to be a bit clearer.

i looked on ebay and couldnt any auctions for rs1 headphones, and i forgot her site...but heres her email: [email protected] / aim: Lilobit8

both the amp and the headphones came with a grado 1 year warranty, certification papers, box, etc.

around 3 hours, i use it mostly as a desktop replacement. oh, and 3dmark03 score on it was 2790 stock, and 2900 on stable overclocking of the video card. the only laptop as good as this in my opinion (for the price) is the compal cl56 which has same spec options, and gets 100-300 more in 3dmark03, but the screen's viewing angle sucks, ecs g556e screen is much better, although not as good as sony or fujitsi obviously.

it is an expensive case thus the monitor and the table

:p  ;)

And these tables are good for holding up Pepsi spills every night. ; ) This monitor was $450 when I was shopping for it, but Sams Club had it for $250, so that's not cheap. ; )

I have nothing more than a Zalman CNPSA-CU to cool this CPU. I sit ontop a temperature of around 115 or somewhere around that neighborhood.

Damn, it would be an expensive case wouldn't it! Sod buying that then!

Newegg has the Coolermaster Wavemaster black edition for $148

got new furniture so i moved all of my computer stuff into the living room.

stuff you see:

computer, cable modem (under shelf, next to desk. behind that is the smc router and apc ups), some ikea light, logitech cordless mx duo, logitech z2200 2.1 speaks, samsung 192n 19" LCD, tape measure, a calendar, and my recliner in the background :woot:

    • I think he means you haven't reviewed previous UFC games. Of course it doesn't matter... Every time you just report on something that involves the President even if just simply what happened you guys usually get accused of being anti-Trump. We live in fun times.
    • So how did you solve the problem? Disabling Secure Boot isn’t a solution.
    • Another devilish issue surrounding these certificates is what can happen with old, unsuspecting PCs that nevertheless have Secure Boot enabled. In my case, it was a Dell with a 3rd-gen Core chip (so about 13 years old). As of the last few weeks, it was suddenly BSOD'g within about 5 minutes of booting. Turns out it was because of MS's "Secure-Boot-Update" scheduled task, which is scheduled to run 5 minutes after login. It's explained in gory detail here (this is not my post, but it was where I found the answer), but the short version is that this legacy system would need fairly elaborate, manual certificate intervention since MS's automatic cert update method cannot work. How to do that is linked late in the thread. https://www.bleepingcomputer.c...od-caused-by-scheduled-task Secure Boot wasn't at all important for this particular PC, so I disabled it to be done with the problem.
    • Winhance 26.06.12 by Razvan Serea Winhance is an open-source Windows enhancement utility designed to help users debloat, optimize, and customize Windows 10 and 11. It provides a user-friendly interface for removing unwanted apps, legacy components, and optional features safely, giving you more control over your system. With Winhance, you can improve performance, reduce clutter, and enhance privacy without the need for a clean install. Beyond basic debloating, Winhance offers extensive optimization tools. Users can tweak power plans, adjust gaming and performance settings, control notifications, and manage Windows Update behavior. Privacy-focused settings allow you to limit telemetry and data collection, while system customization options let you personalize the taskbar, Start menu, Explorer, and Windows themes. Winhance also supports installing or removing software efficiently, including external apps via WinGet integration, streamlining both new setups and daily maintenance. New AI privacy groups have been added for Windows AI, Microsoft Edge AI, and Microsoft Office AI, giving users clearer control over AI-related telemetry and feature usage. In addition, new settings in Gaming & Performance introduce AI taskbar pin toggles, options to remove AI apps, and controls for AI services and scheduled tasks, allowing users to better manage how AI components run in the background and appear in the system. For advanced users and IT professionals, Winhance integrates WIMUtil, a tool for creating custom Windows installation ISOs with automated configuration. You can generate autounattend.xml files, inject drivers, and apply your chosen Winhance settings automatically during installation. Most changes are non-destructive and reversible, with clear explanations in the GUI. Whether you’re optimizing a single PC or managing multiple systems, Winhance delivers a faster, cleaner, and highly personalized Windows experience. The Winhance.Installer.exe includes both Installable and Portable versions during setup. Winhance supports both Windows 10 and Windows 11 64-bit versions. It's regularly updated to ensure compatibility with the latest Windows updates and features. Winhance key features: Debloat Windows – Safely remove unwanted apps, features, and legacy components.

Power Management – Configure power plans and advanced energy settings. Windows Update Control – Adjust update behavior for stability and convenience.

Explorer Customization – Adjust file explorer appearance and functionality. Software Management – Install/remove Windows apps and optional features. External Apps Installation – Deploy essential apps via WinGet integration. Configuration Management – Save, export, and import Winhance settings easily. Automation with WIMUtil – Create custom Windows ISOs with integrated settings. Autounattend.xml Generator – Automate Windows installations with preconfigured options. Driver Integration – Include current system drivers in custom ISOs. Non-Destructive Changes – Reversible settings with clear explanations in the GUI. Winhance 26.06.12 changelog: Features Builder Mode — build a Winhance config file or autounattend.xml without changing anything on the PC you're sitting at. Flip the new mode switcher to Builder, set everything the way you want it, and save the result as a Winhance config or an autounattend file ready for deployment on other machines. Sponsors & Supporters page — the exit donation dialog is gone. In its place, an in-app page (heart icon or the More menu) recognizes the businesses and individual supporters who keep Winhance free. It works offline and is fully localized. Change History — Winhance now keeps a receipt of everything it does. ChangeHistory.txt records every setting change (before and after values) and every app install or removal, with clear headers for config imports and bulk actions. Open it from the More menu. Hebrew language support — Winhance is now available in 29 languages. New Explorer customizations: desktop icon visibility toggles, This PC folder visibility, an icon cache size setting, and automatic thumbnail cache cleanup. New "All apps view" setting for the redesigned Windows 11 Start menu, and the Windows 11 system tray icons setting is now a dropdown with more control. App-local UI zoom — press Ctrl +/-/0 or use Ctrl+MouseWheel to scale the whole app, just like a browser. New External Apps: EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, Rockstar Games Launcher, PowerShell, and Helium Browser. Bug Fixes Layouts no longer clip when the Windows text size slider is set above 100%. Accessibility: Narrator now announces setting names on toggles and dropdowns, previously unlabeled buttons are labeled, and progress updates are announced. Silent updates now respect your custom install location instead of reverting to the default. Cancel in Review Mode no longer clears your app selections. OneNote is now detected correctly for Win32 Click-to-Run installs. Clean Start Menu applies more reliably by also writing the group policy path. WinGet errors are no longer silent — error details now show in the terminal output. Fixed a startup crash on older Windows builds caused by a .NET runtime regression. Config import now converts power setting values correctly and no longer re-applies an already-active power plan. Improvements App icons load noticeably faster and cover almost everything now, including legacy capabilities and optional features — they come from a dedicated, checksum-validated icon repository and are fetched in parallel. Software & Apps polish: per-icon tooltips, extra table columns, an app sort dropdown, relocated search, and a cleaner compact view. A warning now appears when the Connected Devices Platform Service is set to Manual or Disabled, since some Windows features depend on it.
