Hey guys. I just needed some advice before I buy this video card. My computer is a compaq deskpro with 256 ram (witch i'm upgrading to the 700's soon with a 512mb ram). It has an intel pentuim 3 and right now is holding an old graphics card witch is an ati rage pro 8mb 2x graphics card. This graphics card says It supports 2x slots. So will it work with my computer? Is there aything I have to do to use it cuz' the system requirments dont stray to far from my comp. It's pritty much good, but I want to be sure. This for gaming. No i'm not getting a new computer. Heres the link to the page with the info on the card. Thanks guys!

Alright so my problem is, my monitor has all these curvy lines flowing across the screen in a crosshatch type pattern. The severity of it is a funtion of a variety of variables including the color the monitor is currently displaying, the contrast setting, and the brightness setting. For example dark gray causes it to go absolutely crazy. Adjusting the contrast and brightness settings I can bring the movement to a crawl but the crosshatch pattern is still there. I've been trying to decide whether it's my monitor or vid card. The only test I could think to do was to take a screenshot and see if it recorded the crosshatch pattern...that, I thought, would tell me if the video card was sending these messed up pixels. When I pasted the screenshot the pattern wasn't there. I'm guessing this means it's my monitor. Any ideas?

My Zalman 9500 (cpns9500) seems to only touch my processor on the outer edges of the contact plate. I can tell this because I can see on the CPU where the contact plate touches and has spread the thermal compound aside. Also, on the contact plate, the thermal compound only sticks to the edges, in the center it's clean as a whistle (can even see my reflection in one spot).
The reason I ask is, it seems unusual to me that such a reputable brand as Zalman would make such a grevious error...has anyone else experienced this? Does this seem feasible?

If I use a cooler pad (fan) since the 7200 rpm hard drive conducts more heat, will this solve the issue of power consumption. Will the cooler pad also reduce the abuse ( by cooling the laptop) therefore making it more durable?


Plus will using this drive lower performance throughout use since it uses more heat. (If yes, will the cooling pad correct this problem?)
