Computers & Internet - 28 July 2007

I'm looking to buy an Xbox 360 racing wheel. I want to use it with a 360, my computer, and my playstation 2. I can use it one the computer with no problems, it uses a usb cable. But on my PS2, I'd need a USB to playstation cable. Do know where to buy one or if they even make them?

A friend of mine used it for his profile about a year ago and he doesn't remember who sings it. Guys sing it. Or rap it.

I'm trying to block Poker Stars using blocking options of my Netgear Router. According to Poker Stars FAQ, they are using port 26002 and 443. By blocking those parts I see Poker Stars connecting slower, but it seems to be able to find its way around it. Possibly using different ports. By blocking port TCP 443 networks also blocks all web based mail services. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi.

Currently I have 2 hard drives installed on my machine. Both of them 7200rpm. 80gb used for storage and 20gb running windows xp pro sp2.
other specs
- Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz
- MSI P6N SLI Platinum LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce
- EVGA 640-P2-N821-AR GeForce 8800GTS 640MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16

My question is if I purchase the following hard drive and and install and run windows xp on that hard drive, how much performance increase can I expect?
faster booting time?
better performance in gaming?
office applications?
image editing, etc?

Windows xp currently installed on Maxtor 20gb 7200 rpm, avg. seek time 9.7ms. 2mb buffer size

Looking to purchase this one to replace 20 gb
- Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM

i am downloading a torrent, and i cannot turn my pc off, but i want the fans to be able to work well so it does not overheat, and i think that by putting it upside down or on its side it would be giving the fans the highest ability to mix with the air around it, but i am worried about the effects of putting a laptop on its side. help me please?!?
