My internet has been so flaky these last couple of weeks and I have no idea why really. Always going down for seconds to minutes, high pings, and dropped packets probably. Any suggestions on good programs that I can run in the background that can alert me when a problem arises? My platform is so...

I would buy a new PSU. They're really cheap these days and I'm sure you don't need much unless you're powering a watt intensive system. The problem with replacing the fan is that you could possibly shock yourself with uncharged capacitors and what not. That's what the guy at the computer store...

this thread will not end well..... retire in 5-10 years :p

If its scalable, I would start looking at countries I could buy. Oh, and then I would ask people on a forum what to do with a trillion dollar strategy.

Right, I wouldn't use it as a long term solution. Btw, I put the HD into a completely new setup. New MoBo (different brand), CPU, video card, sound, etc. I used it for about a month, and later I put the HD back in the old computer and it was fine.

yup, no need. probably best if you try it yourself before the problem actually happens

i've done it. it worked for me fine. it just asked to install new drivers

Why would I want my competition to get better?

lol @ you guys. if this is true (which I highly doubt it is), you think this will stop blackboxes? it'll only stop the small guys who aren't making more than what the fee costs. just a drop in the ocean oh ya, and i heard nyse is trying to decrease volume too..... .

only after i've averaged down 5 times and it still isn't working out

Who is your datafeed? Since I'm tied to Sterling I have to use VB6.0 and their poor API. I'd love to be able to get 150K quotes/sec and go back to a proper language, though I don't want to pay several thousand for it. <$1000 would be great.

I would think it can handle it quite easily. Although it's not C++, with VB6.0 using sterling API I can process up to 10,000 quotes/sec before the quotes begin to back up. That's an E8400 dual core overclocked to 4.0 ghz. With a Q6600 quad-core at 2.4 ghz I can do about 3500 q/s. So you can see...

lmao!

ya, i just spent 2 hours this morning on that site.... i hope i never get too old to enjoy it! as for me, i browse a lot of message boards, facebook, msn (to bug those that have to actually "work"), listen to music, turn on the radio, eat, and nap for a couple of hours about 2-3 times a...

haha, i'm not sure if that's sarcasm or not. i tried to play this version on the acoustic => miserable fail. though i can rock it on FoF (clone of Guitar Hero) :D

anybody who thinks airbags do more harm than good should not be trading.... if you don't understand my point, that is my point exactly

haha, why are you using my fake balance? can't you fake your own?

Who is your broker? PDT doesn't apply to Canadians. There are no PDT rules at CDN brokers like Questtrade, but there is at IB Canada (I assume cause it's linked to the US).
