I can't get this joystick to work in XP, it just won't detect when i plug it into any of my USB ports. Has anyone had luck getting this joystick working? Oh yeah XP RC2 is what i'm using right now.

Good Processor Idling Application

I need to know of some good CPU Idling programs, ones that help keep the cpu idle as much as possible, I can't find any and I don't know if CPU Idle actually does just that or not. .

X-bit labs has posted a review on the ABIT Siluro T400 64MB Graphics Card. We reviewed one of the today´s best NVIDIA GeForce2 MX 400 based graphics solutions from ABIT. The main trump of this graphics card is certainly its superior overclockability: we managed to make it run stably at 240MHz memory and core frequency.

Motherboard Recommended

RussellWild

Hello - I'm looking for an upgrade motherboard which supports AMD's Athlon (probably 1. 4GHz) and PC2100 DDR RAM. I've looked at a few Asus ones so far. Can anyone here recommend a good motherboard which supports both these, and works well with XP? (especially ACPI/Hibernate etc).
