    Time to Play

    Well, Today I loaded my Dell PowerEdge 2900 that has (2) Duel Core 3.0 Xeons, 6 gigs of memory, and (2) 34 gig 15,000 rpm SAS Drives. Not bad for a cost of 35 Dollars. I Striped the Hard Drives, and loaded it with windows 7 Enterprise. Took a hole 18 minutes to load from start to get to desktop, Crazy fast. added a sound card, but still need to cut down my 1 Gig Video card to fit a PCIE 8x slot. then it is off to the races (Games). We will have to see how it works.

    I have noticed, the most stuff opens almost as fast as you can see.

    Cut the end of the slot in the mobo instead. Easier and faster.

      Ya, it is. but I was worried if I decide to sale the server when I am done playing with it. I guess I have to decide if money is more important then fun. I do like good cheap fun.

        Gaming Laptop Zephyrus S17 TFT not detected every time !
        by titomno2
        Hi guys,
        I post my problem here because I think it could be a capacitor related issue (Asus support on this particular subject is non-existing).
        So the computer is a Zephyrus-S17-GX735LXS-26T and the strange behavior is seen.
        On cold start most of the time the internal screen is detected and a picture it works fine until shutdown, sleep or deep sleep.
        Then the screen won't work for a long period of time.
        If I wait 1 or 2 hours it work again most of the time.
        When it doesn't work the batterie indicator blink 3 times white stop and the same schematic is repeated...

        Adding a clock battery to action camera to retain date&time when changing batteries Campark X25
        by flat-earther
        I have a cheap action camera with an annoying trait, every time I change batteries the date & time gets reset and I have to set it again.

        To solve this problem I want to add a small internal battery inside it which will keep supplying power to the camera for a while while I change batteries so the date & time is retained.

        I have opened the camera and I think there is enough room to add something inside to accomplish this:

        The camera is powered by a 3.7V nominal single cell lithium ion battery.
        So I need to connect another battery in...

        HP Pavilion dm4-1065dx long time to get the power led on
        by OscarAV
        Hello,

        I just came here to see if someone has had the same problem I have, and if he or she solved It, to know how to do It.

        I have made a quick search for my laptop but I have not seen anything similar.

        I have an old laptop, an HP Pavilion dm4-1065dx which takes a lot of time to be ready to start if the laptop has been unplugged for a while. It has no battery. The battery failed long time ago. It needs to be plugged to work. But as I said, It can take a lot of time until the charging led gets on, and I can switch on the laptop. I am using an external monitor...

        Pioneer RM-07 Active monitors cutting out from time to time
        by BigOof
        I have a pair of Pioneer RM-07 monitors that I bought a while ago. When I was testing them I noticed that one speaker would cut out and I thought it was just a bad cable connection. At the price they were being sold for I was willing to take a risk on them. However, 6 months later and the one monitor still has the same issue. Most of the time it works, but there are times that the power LED is on but I get absolutely no sound. I can hear the relay clicking on/off sometimes and then it will/won't work depending on what it feels like. I've tried XLR and RCA inputs with the same issue. There's no...

        HP Notebook - 15-ba017ax (LA-D711P Motherboard) turns off randomly after some time
        by nieljosiah
        I've had this laptop for 8-9 years, and about a week back, it started malfunctioning. When I press the power button, the power LED comes on for about 5secs and turns off. The fan also doesn't spin at all during this time. But, if I press the power button, and then manually spin the fan, the laptop boots up and the fan starts spinning on its own. Even if I do this, and the laptop boots up, it turns off (hard shutdown) after some time between 10secs and 1hour randomly. I've tried checking the fan voltage and it's at zero volts when I press the power button without spinning it, but when I spin the...
