Like someone mentionned, depends what platform and HOW many ladders you have up and running. the more ladders/charts you got up, the more bandwidth you need. What you should do, with your current setup is monitor how much bandwidth goes in from market open to market close. Usually routers...

You didn't mention how many monitors and such you using, but i am guessing quiet a few and you probably have keyboards and mouses all over the place ? This is just a suggestion, in case you haven't think about it, but to save power and lot of wires and space, you could use some KVM boxes to...

What charting software do you use?

With this : http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/th2go/ Laptop screen + 3 monitors connected to that Matrox device. but for that you need an external vga [dvi maybe?] port to accomodate the TripleHead2Go.

LOVED this post! You are a 110% correct about this. As a geek... i hate to see wasted power :( But of course, if people can afford it, why not. But most of the time, people are wasting money. But some are trying to go too deep in the reasoning about getting a super computer for trading...

This happens to any USB devices you throw in your machine? maybe only that device you try is busted. Have you tried different USB ports? same? maybe that port you keep trying it busted. Don't know about your PC, but have you checked your manufacturer's website, maybe there is a fix/patch...

You are wrong about this. video/image processing is all done in memory. If you apply modifications, the computer has to open the file [ the whole thing ], uncompressing it, bigger your image/movie is, more ram/HD space it will require to process the work. For example, if you have a 5 mb...

Wow... that is a weird comparaison you did there. Sempron = worst pos processor [ celeron type ] and you compare it to a Core2duo... a ' 98 Honda Civic versus a 2009 Ferrari. who gets to finish first you think? ;p

I see this question coming back often in this forum. How many monitors can Win XP supports? Answer is 10. some report it is possible over 10 with third party software to configure them... but i have no idea about that.

Some good and bad in there... I don't see what's up with your racism. I'm from Montreal and french, in case you live in a cave, Montreal is mostly bilingual. Peux tu converser avec moi en francais? [ j'en doute... ] Quadro NVS are great cards for trading. Mainly use the NVS 280-290-295...

NOD32 with Spybot-S&D is the best combo to keep your machine in order. Chances for viruses are slims nowadays but spywares... god that's so annoying. been reading many comments ... and i think the main problem is ppl don't know the difference between viruses and spywares.

and that is in theory. and if you are sitting on the wifi router. then you may get ~80-90% signal strenght. then you can have interference. walls in the way and other interesting thing that can weaken your signal. But if the guy has to go wifi, i would replace the small antennas. then...

Most likely a driver conflict. But could be a power related problem. meaning , do you have a powerfull enough PowerSupply to feed everything in your machine? or have you tried putting that 9500 card in a different PCI slot ? could be an irq conflict. good luck

May i suggest you try a new network cable that connects that "PC with a problem" to the router.

I like these, they run well, fanless, no noise. 2 DVI or VGA outputs. pci-e x16. and relatively cheap imo. ~130$ cnd. NVIDIA Quadro NVS 290 - graphics adapter - Quadro NVS 290 - 256 MB a link just so you can have an idea, most likely available at other retailers...

like i said, that was my opinion. But i went tru Dell stuff.. i still have like ~20ish machines from them running. The xw6400+ from HP is way better than Precision series i got here. Tower, way easier to work in the HP than Dell. the Dell tower is so bulky/big, but i think they changed the...

Hosts and Links are 2 different subjects. Hosts are servers, from the TT explanation is that if your remote server goes down for whichever reason, then it will failover and try to connect to the 2nd one configured in TT Guardian. in the case you going tru the same link still. In the case...

This is just my opinion. but i compare Dell to what is McDonald in the food business. Foxconn behind #1 manufacturer doesn't mean they are any good. in fact, i was googling real quick and i found only one chart of motherboard where i saw a foxconn board in, on 10th position. Personnaly...

May i suggest 2 models depending on budget : HP xw4600 series http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/sm/WF25a/12454-12454-296719-296721-296721-3429268.html or a much more powerfull machine : HP xw6600 ~1800 [this serie sports Xeon processor from Intel] Both series has 2 PCI Express...

Brand wise, i personnaly prefer HP over Dell anytime as well. Of course the best option is custom build/build it yourself in a way. you decide every pieces in it but requires time and knowledge. One site i like, where i buy most of my parts and where you can have them build your machine...
