    I'm using Mozilla Firefox. And it's only on this forum...any other webpage or forum and it works perfectly. But on this forum, anybody with large avatars and sigs (like mrray or Eldorado) causes the page to scroll very slowly (actually freezes up the browser for a few seconds) and the loading is very slow aswell. Any fix to this? Any settings I need to change in Firefox? Any other firefox users experiencing the same thing?

    Man, i've been doin so much research on this when i have time my head is about to explode so i am going to see if you guys share the same thoughts as what i'm seeing and reading. I had a 51" Hitachi rear projection tv. I am replacing it with a lcd or plasma of at least 50" but am wanting to stay below $1200 or around that since this is an unexpected purchase for myself. I have researched 720 vs 1080 and from what i see... unless i primarily watch blu ray movies or if i am sitting very close to the tv(i usually sit about 8-9ft away), 720 is the way to go since there would then be no visual difference and it's cheaper. The only thing they say is make sure it can accept 108…

    I got a laptop a couple years ago and now I primarily use it at work or for work-related things. So, now I am looking for something else. No games, no movies, little music ... mainly used for Word/Excel documents and surfing the internet. 17" screen would be great. Price range - somewhere around $1500? Anyone have any suggestions? I have been completely out of the game since I bought mine two years ago so I am unsure as to what is regarded as the best right now. Is it still down to the whole AMD vs. Intel Core 2 Due thing? To be honest I have not looked around much, but I was wondering if anyone had anything off the top of their heads. I will get some model numbers…

    What tracks/songs/albums are great to test - SQ and - SPL on a kick ass system? I mostly listen to Urban and Dance. Here are some of my favourites for SPL: - Pretty much anything by Lil Jon - Petey Pablo - Freek a leek - Petey Pablo - Vibrate (the video clip is awesome ) - Lil Flip - Gameover - Ashanti - Only you - Ciara featuring Petey Pablo - Goodies - Fat Joe featuring Lil Jon, Eminem and Mase - Lean Back (remix) - Ludacris - Saturday The system I own isn't very good for SQ to say the least I can't really think of any good songs for SQ.

  14. Ok, this is pretty sad, but I am finally buying a new TV for the first time. It is something I am not very well versed on, hence using the power of the SSA family to assemble the best choices. A couple of years ago, when I was at Neal's house, that TV was bananas, but worry it's well out of budget. So, parameters for the purchase: $600 max 50-60" viewing area Smart 4k if possible, UHD Can order from NewEgg or Amazon Mostly used to stream HBO/Netflix/Orioles games/Penn State I've begun searching, but my knowledge is lacking and I am a little unfamiliar with some of the newer tech, and which brands to stray away from…

    Yesterday my girlfriend was doing homework on my computer and was trying to open Microsoft Word when the computer froze. She said it was making "thinking noises" but grew impatient and did a hard turn-off. Then when she turned it back on it said "Operating system not found" and wouldn't load. I've never had problems with it before other than an occassional blue screen if I leave the computer on too long because it seems that it doesn't like my wireless adapter sometimes. I just unplug it and it reloads fine. It's a Dell Inspiron 2600 laptop that's almost 7 years old now. I get home after work, oblivious to the problem, and turn it on. It comes up with an options scr…

    Got two computers. They're pretty close spec wise. Have an optical mouse / whatever the hell they're called ... without the ball. Both computers have the same Logitech mouse. Turn off both computers. Mouse on the computer on the right stays on (the 'idle' glow), one on the left turns off. Been like this forever, just wondering if I can change it so the retarded one turns off when the computer is off. Probably in the settings somewhere, I don't know - I'm computer retarded.

    When I first bought my laptop, I was getting about 2.5-3 hours on a single battery. Months later, for some reason I'm only getting <2 hours on a single batt. Startup groups are still the same (as far as I know), program usage is the same, although I'm using more hard drive now than before (possible cause?). Just wondering what yall might think is the problem.
