  1. Don't know technical, but if I remember back far enough, my dial-up was still slower than my satelite is during fap. Just a personal opion.

    AV combo?

    Has any body ran a combo of the two best freeware AV's? Mixed AVG Free and Avast? Are they compatible? Is it any better? Just figured it could not hurt! Thanks. :roll:
  4. The only thing I have heard bad about ebay, is that my brother bought some computer stuff, and never received it. He complained to ebay and never got resolved. He swears he will never use them again. If that ever happened to me I would probably feel the same. $50
  5. Bought on ebay once myself! All I can tell you is if it feels wrong, don't do it. Lots of people would do it anyway. If you want to do right, call ebay, without giving person's info. I would not myself! Am pretty sure it is against rules, or how they would make any money. Hence your answer! Sorry! Ebay has built in safeties for them and us. It is set so everybody gets paid. Most figure I am too honest, for most part. But I sleep better! Kind of like this: If you had not put it on ebay, he would not have got ahold of you. If you sell it on some other source, newspaper, word of mouth, etc..., well I could probably sleep then, probably(knowing they were the reason it sold). Kind of how honest business world works:If you are working on my job and an individual walks up and solicits your services, you are supposes to refer them to me. If a person walks up to you while you are anywhere but on my jobsite, then it is free game. If boss or ebay screwed you, oh well, free game.

  9. What device? Are you current with Microsoft updates? Device updates? Are you virus and spyware free?
  10. Could you loan me about $12,000,it is for sale, for interest I will take you for a ride. No I own a 1965 mustang fastback with 302. Stock right now, get 20mpg and runs smooth. But I am a speed freak(1/4 mile). Have some saved for project upgrade. Now need time to get started. Would like to push HP from 195 to about 450 and put in an AOD trans. with about 3.50 rear gears to start. Maybe fix a little rust, and get antique tags. Have not driven over 5 miles from home in about 6 years. Actually I had a mustang close to this once. A 1968 Mustang fastback with a 390 which I swapped out for a long searched out 427 Ford big block souped up to 450 HP. It was sweet, would tease corvettes and Z-28's. Never lost a race back in late 70's and early 80's. Did not know enough about race motors and burned up a couple rod bearings and threw a couple of rod's. Never got it fixed. No money. And only had $1650 dollars in whole car! Good old days. Try to find one of those motors today!!
  11. Try reading these: http://www.testmy.net/forum/b-12 http://www.testmy.net/forum/b-3 Have you tried cable-nuts or TCP optimizer? Are you spyware and virus free? All that is in these two sections!Anything else please post back! The best freeware Anti Virus and Antispyware are in there! If you have a 1.5 you should be able to do just a little more than that. I average 1030 on a 1000kbps cap.
  12. How much $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ are we talking. Some folks will do anything for $$$$$$$$$$$!!

  14. Some people are just ornery. Just try to PM trodger.
  15. Most people get their advertised if they work on it enough. I actually get about 1030Kbps on a 1000 Kbps cap. Try this:http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools/mbsa2/default.mspx Took me three months to get computer the way I wanted it. Keep reading forum. Anytime you can help someone, you will learn more. Great site to optimize computer! Continue trying things. Some things work for some folks, some don't. I like TCP Optimizer, most folks prefer cable-nuts. None of us are wrong or right. Each has different things that work for them. Some surf, some game, some just enjoy playing with computers, and some are working on college OJT, no better place to get it. Enjoy. ;)
  16. Frost line can be determined by checking with local codes administration. I prefer to put 1/3 of pole in ground. Don't need to drill holes because you can pour rock mix concrete and then push pole into concrete mix ther by filling bottom up. Then I fill pipe with a sack of sand mix, which is easier to pour. Have had to set some fencing for rental houses. They like to hit with cars. Heavier guage pipe with same pipe O.D. is sturdier. In this case 2 3/8 is fence corner post size. So you could actually go to the hardware store. And don't forget the top cap. You would prabably not need to fill unless you might run into it with some force. Fence pipe is also galvanized. Probably get pipe for under $10. Top cap will keep water out which is how most fence pipes rust out first. Inside out. I think corner posts come in 9' or 10'. If you do not have a cheap level, a string with a rock tied to end will work. Like a plumb bob. Just hold beside pipe and let dangle till it stops and there is plumb. ;)
  17. Yes, Corsair, good RAM, didn't know this, sorry. A lot of people go out and buy Kensington or PNY, budget stuff, like I used to do. That's all I know on this subject. Good luck.

  19. Try a larger test test file, say1496 or 2992. Have you tried cablenuts or TCP Optimizer? Is your computer Virus and Spyware free? Try these sections! http://www.testmy.net/forum/b-3 http://www.testmy.net/forum/b-12
  20. See what type of music it likes, calm the BEAST! Dumb answer, but maybe if you move the tower away from speaker vibration? Open box and see if there is any type of spark inside when you do this?
  21. You say the first set was found to be bad! You said Ebuyer found them defective! You say the second set is doing the same thing! 1+1=2! Maybe to your frustration the second set is also defective! Try to exchange for a better quality ram set! MAYBE!! :D
