Maximum PC Magazine Launches ModShop.Net, The Premiere Site for PC-Modification Hobbyists
South San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 15, 2007 -- Maximum PC, Future US' monthly bible for hardcore computer addicts, will launch The Mod Shop (http://www.modshop.net) on October 15th. As the premiere website for builders and designers of custom computers, The Mod Shop offers a slate of unique features to help PC modders create an online home, and even win prizes, within a booming web community.
Inside the Mod Shop, computer modders, upgraders and artists of all experience levels can share and promote their creations with photos, work logs, how-to articles, and more. Whether their modding projects are simple or insane, performance-oriented or aesthetic, PC- or Mac-based, all contributors are welcome. Even the most modest computer builder can register on the website and immediately begin chronicling his work-in-progress on a customized profile page.
Thermodynamically impossible chip cooling? Body-shop-caliber case painting? Origami-like wiring jobs? Bring it on! But while The Mod Shop will be home to the world's most elaborate custom PCs, the community is just as interested in seeing humble mod jobs, and how they evolve month by month into works of creative genius.
There's more to do at the Mod Shop than just look at gorgeous rigs. The site is hosting a monthly NCAA-style tournament, giving away more than $2,000 in cash and prizes courtesy of Windows Vista Ultimate. The Mod Shop community votes on which hot-rod computers will make it to the next round, taking that rig into the next monthly tournament to fight it out gladiator-style.
"The editors of Maximum PC have been covering the hardcore PC modding scene since 1999, bringing readers spectacular photography, in-depth how-to articles, and our monthly Rig of the Month contest," explains Will Smith, editor-in-chief of Maximum PC. "We are very excited to present the ultimate community resource for PC hardware hackers of all experience levels."

Windows Cannot Find Error Message won't bother you any more
Basically "Windows cannot find" error message means that there was a instruction to run some file, but the file itself does not exist. We know looks of this problem when the text of error message window describes DLL (dynamic-link library) rather than some executable file. "Windows can't find" error can be caused by some malware as well as by some legal one, which could have been, for example, brokenly uninstalled; anyway it should be corrected for your computer to run properly. We also encountered with situations when "Windows could not find" was caused by the second part of autoload item, especially if the first part of it was connected with Rundll32.exe file. So, not only malicious programs can lead to "Windows can't find" error.
