oh shit 5000 posts! and it only took me 11 years.

This worked! Thank you! I uninstalled the 3.0 drivers that came with my motherboard cd and let windows install its own, it picked up the drive instantly! Thank you!

I don't think theyre damaged. It's a brand new board and whenever I plug anything into it that particular device turns on and has power. I tried reinstalling the 3.0 drivers but still nothing :|

So whenever I connect my USB 3.0-able external into the USB 3.0 port on my motherboard, it gives the harddrive power. However, windows 7 does not detect the drive. If I plug it into a 2.0, it works fine. This goes for ALL my externals (I have 4.) I installed usb 3.0 drivers and everything. It...

I work for a luxury retail company called Saks 5th Avenue. I'm an internal controller so I travel around the east coast/midwest alot.

Whoaaaaa that's an amazing chart krynn! It looks like, sadly, my best option is that Hitachi that has 2.9 avg years and a 1.1% failure rate. That's only 2TB though. Argh. Can't technology move along any faster?!

Slow I can live with. Expensive...worth the price to me for backup. So you answered my question in terms of life expectancy. I assume the best brand is still WD?

Soooo my 500gb external back ups are just about all filled up. All my photos, music, life is on 3 external drives all exactly mirrored with one another. A bit overboard and maybe slightly over paranoid? Perhaps, but you can never be too careful. I decided that one major piece of my life is...

Thanks Lobster. I will definitely look into Lenovo now. Never even heard of them prior.

Ok so I travel a lot for work. Like a LOT. I would say 14 out of 30 days in a month are spent in a hotel room and it's really hindered my game time. So I wanted to buy a laptop for on-the-go. I know laptops aren't as powerful as desktops for gaming, but if you were to buy a laptop for gaming...

Awesome thank you! sorry for the delayed response

Hey. So I was reminiscing and searched my old threads I posted and it goes all the way back to 2004. Is there any way I can save a copy of these threads offline so I wouldn't need a connection to the internet to re-read them if I ever get nostalgic again? Please dont tell me to sit here and...

I wish I knew where shem was, and that I was gay, and that these forums were more active.

I was 15....I'm 26....jesus....I can't believe how long this place has been around. It's a big part of my life.

someone posted a driver/software download about year ago maybe? I can't find it anymore. Anyone know of an easy way to connect your ps3 controller to pc? i have a bluetooth adapter.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive - 9.5/10 I've been playing CS since 2000, and as time went on, I slowly became less and less addicted. By the time 1.6 was out, I had moved on in my path of gaming to explore other MP options. Counter-strike source, although pretty at its time, didn't hold much...

I don't have any friends that ever bought me a game. My life is sad.
