Okay, so here's "the computer room". This obviously isn't where my PC is, but rather, it is now occupied by my parents. They hate that dual monitor setup I made right there, but it's okay (too bad it sacrifices ability to play Rune on the LAN). Like the screen saver, though? BSOD Ahoy!

Hehe, nice vintage TV Smile!

And yes, mine is hand-built, and no old parts from that HP in the other room (with the dual monitors) are used in mine anymore either, which is always great (but I stole the SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 from my sister's Dell).

Dude, is that left monitor a Packard Bell? If so, look at my pic of the duals, our second monitors are identical, lol, its like 13" and can handle 1024x768 so that is good enough for the parents, although the main one is at 1280x1024 Smile. I mean, you even have the same speakers on it, it just has to be a 13" Packard Bell!

Again, about that, the HP for the parent's use, most of that stuff in there is upgraded except the motherboard and CPU, otherwise sacrifices were made, as well as addons (hard drive, sound card, video card, RAM, etc).

And about HP, they may be another OEM manufacturer (and I refuse to let friends or family but OEMs while I'm around to help) but as said before, I have a refurbished 19" HP monitor here capable of 1920x1440@60Hz, so I'm content Wink!!

indeed.. that is a Dell sony trinitron 19'' monitor ... refrash rate sucks on it.. but it does the job .. only knoticable for refreshrates when going over 60 FPS .. mine max's out at 1600x1200 other wise i would make it higher

that setup was messy.. but now i moved the server onto its own desk on the right side of the room .. alot better .. love it... also cleaned the room hehehe :P

And another thing.. i also have a SB live! 5.1 in my system .. dont see no need to upgrade my sound as my Altec Lancing makes up for the loss of 24 bit sound.. 16 bit works for me .. crystal clear baby !

and as for monitors .. there difference.. if the PC's i'd refuse to buy or let a friend buy :P

thanks for the backround ... will have new pics soon of that and my new setup ... peace

Haha cool cool, lots of similar stuff. And yeah, only if a 24-bit sound card enhanced PERFORMANCE, not just clarity, would I go for it, otherwise the SB Live! 5.1 is impossible to beat.

And about the monitor, I can't believe yours might be older than mine! Mine had the PC underneath it, sort of working as a stand, but it wasn't built into the monitor like that Eek, that would have been much cooler Cool.

Awesome Smile!! Good good, glad you're sorting it like it should be, as well Smile.

By the way, here's my settings in WinXP's control panel, which is how I got it to fit:

Icon Size: 30;
Icon Font: Microsoft Sans Serif; Size "7".
Icon Spacing (Horizontal): 54
Icon Spacing (Vertical): 19

Try it out, might align properly in there, otherwise tweak it a little Smile.

By the way, added you, man Smile.

Well, I am disappointed by my other picture, so here's an updated one in a different perspective. Maybe now this one makes more sense.

Oh, and I posted it from two different angles!11 But they both look almost exactly the same!!!!11!1! There is no point and th4t's okay!!1 WoTOtoo!Oo1o1o Oh!11 The only part not pictured of this tiny tiny room is the bed. You'd have to see that for yourself... WoOdY has WinkSuspicionLimpPuppy!!1!111

(Please don't and no he hasn't).
