Hey! YeOldeStonecat, it has been a while. I sort of fell off the planet and forgot how to use the internet.
What I did was swap out my Hitachi 320 gig 5400 rpm drive for a WD Blue 1T 7200 rpm drive in my little 13" mac notebook. It cut my battery life from about 7hrs to 3. I was looking at the specs ...

This is in my 13" Mac Book Pro (new style). If I take a 320Gig 5400 RPM drive and replace it with a 1T 5400 RPM drive will this effect the power usage? Same brand of hard drives, just a larger size, I had switched to a 7200 but my battery life has been allmost cut in half, I know that the speed of ...

Hi everyone,
I have gotten myself a new 17" notebook and I am having trouble finding a nice bag to keep it in. I have been looking at the Alianware Orion but don't know if it is as good as it seems. The one from RazerZone is ok.
What are you guys/gals using?

Buy it, format it, never partion a HD more thsn one, it's faster.

That is my plan later, right now there is no driver support for some of the stuff, and of course they do not supply a driver disk with the system, just the recovory disk, the disk assumes you have made some kind of back up DVD ...

Very cool, I have spent most of my life in North Central Canada and I have never seen moose like that. Most likely they were too well camouflaged for me to see I guess.

I was able to do a proper backup using the noide switch, thanks TonyT.
I had a heck of a time getting it out of loop to PCDOS mode at boot up though, it was weird, I guess it just wanted to keep backing itself up forever. lol

Ok, I will give that a try when I get home. Thanks Tony

I use Ghost 2003 to make image backups of my main H/D, I have run into a problem with my new system. I have two SATA H/D C: & D: when I run Ghost it does the image and when it goes to do the image integrety check it just goes into a boot loop after PC Dos mode.

Nope, the drives are not external. I am not sure whey they show up under removable devises, they allways have and a buddy of mine has a simmilar set up and his SATA drives show up in removable devises as well so I have never worried about it.
I think I am going to give it a try setting the drives ...

I am not much of a laptop guy but I would like to replace the 80gig drive in my presario X1040US with something larger and faster, probably a 120gig 7200rpm hard drive. I have been unable to find such a beast for this laptop, is there such a thing or am I off my nut?

They were taken in Saskatoon, from the angle I am gessing off of the University bridge.
I have never dove Regina beach, we usualy hit Lake Deifenbaker & the hydro staion at Coteau creek being that they are only about an hours drive away. Blackstrap lake is way too green this time of year.

Dolphins . . . more people are seriously injured and or molested by dolphins than sharks every year. And everyone thinks dolphins are cute, nasty beasts they are.

My buddy and I are trying to find a macro & key/mouse recorder program we had a while back. It was called something like A.C.G. or A.G.C. he and I both can't remember for sure. Any of you know what it might be? We use it for running multiple game accounts at one time for an online game we play.

i have always used the lens cleaner for eye glasses.

This works very well for LCD & CRT monitors, but you need to make sure you are using a soft, lint free cloth when you clean it or you may damage the LCD.
There is a manufacturer that makes a sheep skin cloth special for cleaning LCD monitors ...
