Really depends on the amount of performance you want, and the amount "extra" you're willing to pay for it. For traveling, depending on what exactly you mean by that, there are some nice matx cases with handles and such on them for easy moving, but you still need a desk, a keyboard, etc. I would consider one for "hey bring your PC over and stay fri, sat, sun" but not for "hey i wanna use my system while on a train".... unless it was a really long train journey. Maybe that'd be cool :D

Look at this for example - http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/graphite-series-380t-white-portable-mini-itx-case - i actually remembered incorrectly and it's m-itx, not matx (m-itx is a size smaller and a bit more awkward to use)

I found a folder "windows.old" which takes 18GB in my SSD...
Can I delete it without having trouble? folder is 4 years old, as old as my pc.

It just contains your old Windows installation so if there's nothing you want from your old installation then you can delete it.

When you install Windows on a drive that has a previous installation of Windows, it moves the existing Windows, Program Files (& x86), Users, and ProgramData folders to Windows.old.

I'm looking for recommendations for a simple PC/Android music program. Specifically, what I want is:

-Manage all my mp3s on my PC (edit ID3 info, create and manage playlists, etc.)
-Sync seamlessly with android app on my phone (i.e. I plug my phone into my computer and it automatically determines if any new songs need to be transferred and if any playlists need to be updated)
-Android app does all the basic stuff you'd expect (e.g. integrate with phone lock screen), but does not need to be sophisticated because I will do all the management on my PC
-Would be nice if the android app also has options to display more detailed ID3 tag info for the current song
-Programs should be free and hopefully not too bloated with extra crap.
-Also, I'd really like it if this program did all this in standard formats rather than proprietary.

Winamp used to do most of this for me, but apparently its no longer available on the android market anymore. Any suggestions?

I can't remember that I did re-install win7. I deleted it and my pc shows no problems/troubles since then.

i moved from poweramp to spotify -- premium and i pay for it cuz i really get a lot out of it and i like to listen to music a lot.

Downsides are (to name a few)
$$ / month
Proprietary stuff
Not super deatiled in the ID3 tag department

+'s

it syncs with android and pc seamlessly over wifi



So yeah, i wouldn't recommend it but I switched over 'cause I really like finding new music and i was tired of managing all of it on my pc & then syncing it to my devices. Aside from that, it's kinda crap. I had to integrate Tasker(Root Enable), Trigger and other plugins to get it to do stuff that it should be doing automatically. but the devs kinda suck

Thanks for the suggestion, but $$ and proprietary are definite deal-breakers for me.

Digging a bit deeper into the Winamp situation, apparently its still available from the market but only if you already have it under "My Apps" in your Google profile. And it seems to be published by another party. I'm giving it a try now...

jetburger - you might be interested in Foobar mobile fundraising: http://mobile.foobar2000.com/

Foobar2000 is definitely the best audio player around, been using it for about a decade now - totally custom made, personalized like nothing else could be. The only thing is, so far there's only the desktop version.

Also, winamp is bad :F

Does anyone have a good way to diagnose why USB ports stop working and how to fix them? Essentially, the USB ports for the back of my old desktop sometimes disconnect, and half of them don't work at all. Computer is an i5-750 cpu on a P7P55D ASUS board.

Maybe you could try going to ASUS's website and finding your motherboard on their site. Then you look for updated USB drivers or something. Small fix, see if it works maybe.

so my keyboard suddenly started spamming the down key randomly and the down key no longer works. every few minutes itll start holding down again and the rest of my keys will start to not register properly (keys only working sometimes, keys getting held down randomly). when it's not doing this, everything besides the down key works fine. my webcam mic also seems to go haywire when my keyboard starts fucking up (though my mouse hasn't had any issues, those are the only usb ports im using), so i'm worried that it's not just the keyboard being broken.

i don't have an extra keyboard to test to see if its my keyboard's problem. reinstalled keyboard drivers, no change. i'm on windows 8.1. virus scan turns up nothing. any ideas whats going on or what else i can try?

Hey there, I hope this isn't too complex a question for this thread

but I just wanted to install new RAM, and somehow I messed up, started PC, smelled burning.

So googling tells me either I burned just the RAM, or the motherboard.

Well I inserted the old RAM again, pretty damn sure in the right spot, and the PC doesn't start anymore
(Every few seconds, it shortly tries, LEDs on, fans on, then it stops)
so I guess my motherboard is toast.

Question: Is it certain that it's the motherboard or could it theoretically be something else?
And what do I do now? Do I order a new one and install it myself or is that probably too much to ask of someone so stupid that he failed at something as simple as installing RAM lol

I have an old Acer 120Hz monitor with D-Sub, DVI, HDMI ports and my GPU only has 4x Mini DisplayPort ports (the only DVI port is being used by my main monitor, also 120Hz ). So, at the very least, I need to buy something to convert DVI or HDMI to Mini DisplayPort.

Trying to think of ways to run 120Hz on the Acer. I found this, but it's a little too pricey for me to justify. Are there any other options/possibilities?
