After reconfiging my rig I have one or two small glitches. ( At least for now :D ) I am using a KT7A RAID mobo with a 1 Ghz T bird. When I go to the device manager and check the drivers for P IDE and S IDE they say Microsoft. That is the same for the VIA BUS Master. I have Plextor 16/10 set as Maste...

Can the syste...

I am going to go with a three drive setup. If I Configure the third drive, a new Maxotr 40 GB 100 as the primary drive with a ...

I will use this camcorder to record the usually family outtings, my kids are 2 and 5, and will probably start to video edit the 8MM I have now. Is there a better camcorder out t...

I have the hard drive space and I figureded I could use the DVD software to watch the movie fro...

The problem I have is that I deleted all of my aspi files. Is this download going to load the aspi files I need? How can you Force aspi if there is no aspi yo force?
Thanks

You can record a TV show then burn it a CDR/RW for playback on a DVD player. HAs anyone out there don...

Go with a Pioneer 115 DVD either slot load or try whatever your fancy if you don't want to get another Plextor. The Kenwoods are hit and miss as stated above but they are LOUD. Pioneer 115 and Plextor 16X/40X are a great match. Pioneer DVD-115 16X If you have any plans of making direct copies of CD-...

OK what do I do now? Which MOBO do you suggest? 1 GHZ TBIRD. I will not OC my system and need RAID. See previouss two threads to understand my dilemma.
Thanks for the help
