We're in the top 10 for "computer help" and for "computer support" on the new MSN. Cool :)

As of late last night (Friday nite), 10.3.6 was released via OS X Software Update. It includes lots of minor bug fixes mostly, including the floating point calculation problem in calculator, as well as updates to Safari and ATi and Nvidia video card drivers.

Hill0ster, your question was valid, but your comments were uncalled for. Please tone it down or this thread will be locked. Another offense will result in a ban.

You can try calling up Microsoft customer service. Your registration key should be located on the CD jewel case or CD slip and, if I remember correctly, also somewhere in the manual.

Sweet system ... 64-bit processor with an ultra cool video card. The only thing that I would change is that I would think about perhaps an SATA hdd. This is what's currently in my system -> [url="http://www.westerndigital.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=65"]http://www.westerndigital.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=65[/url]

I did a search and can't find any other threads related to an advanced tab missing. However, there is a thread related to the general tab of the IE properties missing. You can find it here: [thread]947[/thread] Hopefully the solution is the same or similar.

Hmm ... what about a return; statement in the middle of the function? Or you could use a break; statement to break out of a loop. For example, [code] void f(int x) { while (true) { move_forward(x); if (bumper) return; } return; } [/code]

Hmm, I've never encountered this before, but I will have to admit that IE is prone to corruption :( You should be able to download IE from [url="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/critical/ie6sp1/default.mspx"]http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/critical/ie6sp1/default.mspx[/url] If memory serves correctly, the installer automatically uninstalls an old version before re-installing. There might also be a "repair" feature instead of …

Why are you unable to copy and paste the code? Simply highlight all of your code, and do Ctrl+C (if on Windows). And then Ctrl+V to paste it in here. We aren't going to write your program from scratch for you unless we see some effort on your part ... …

Are you checking your mail via [url="http://www.hotmail.com"]www.hotmail.com[/url] or some other type of webmail, or do you have your Hotmail being forwarded to Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express?

You say you tried reformatting the computer and it still happens? Odds are it is a hardware problem then. Video card drivers are prone to causing freezes as well as random restarts, usually in graphic-intensive programs. Bad RAM in a machine can also cause this. I would take the RAM …

Is anything else in your machine acting fishy or just explorer.exe? i.e. once programs are open and in use, do they all work?

Did you recently install any new software? Any registry tweaks? Programs such as Tweak-XP?

I don't think Longhorn is going to be released until 2005-2006 (or was it 2007?) so I think it's too early to tell. If it were easy to make FAT32 support backwards compatible with FAT16, I can't see any reason why Microsoft wouldn't do it. But I don't think they're …

You should be able to just connect it via DHCP. How have you been setting your PCs up in the past?

At absolute least a bachelors. An MBA is an amazing way to break into corporate I.T., especiall with computer science or CIS as an undergrad. Also, perhaps some certifications targeted towards the career you're going for. More than anything, experience is important.

I use AdSense, Tribal Fusion, and Rydium :) I have also tried Burst!, ValueClick, and FastClick, but I wasn't happy with the quality of the banners. I am considering MaxOnline.

EEk. This is why you always do backups ;) Hehe. If I remember correctly, SP2 was pretty darn buggy when it first came out. Theoretically, you should be able to just go to Add/Remove programs, but I wouldn't count on it doing a clean job, especially with something as integral …

Oh, I remember hearing something about this somewhere. Heh. I'm just so not into politics it isn't even funny ;)

AdSense works based on Google AdWords ([url="http://adwords.google.com"]http://adwords.google.com[/url]). Basically, advertisers bid on keywords ... anywhere from 5 cents to a few dollars per click. When the keywords are found on a page containing AdSense, the advertisers' ads are shown. When someone clicks on an AdSense ad on your site, you receive …

May I ask why you want to run Apache on a Windows server? Why not on a test Linux box, or even in a dual boot environment? You probably could find more information in our Web Hosting forum ([url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum33.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum33.html[/url]) or Apache subforum ([url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum90.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum90.html[/url]). Also, a quick google search turned up …

Cool, thanks. So chkdsk.exe /X will make you restart the computer and do that thorough scan in DOS mode?

You're just a bundle of Windows tweaks today, aren't ya, Sani? ;)

The yellow box you're talking about is simply alt text. It's a default feature of HTML. For example, you can use the following HTML tag to insert an image, where if you hover over the image, "alternate" text will appear. [code]<img src="file.gif" alt="Hover Text" />[/code] I simply used alt within …

When you download something such as a Java applet, ActiveX control, etc., it is often signed with a digital signature, so that you know that what you are downloading is authentic and from a legit company whose website you are visiting. These files get saved in your Temporary Internet Files …

Does it always give you that error? It won't detect your camera at all? Have you ever tried any other FireWire devices on your system? Did you install any special drivers you may need to access your FireWire ports? What happens when you do restart?

What program are you using to burn the CDs? Apple iTunes? Roxio Toast?

Mac OS X printing is based on CUPS, a Unix-based printing system. Therefore, all of the CUPS settings can be edited via text files. In addition, if you go into System Preferences and then select Sharing, and under Services, enable "Printer Sharing", you should be able to gain access to …

I was just about to say to unplug and replug in your cable modem, but apparently TKS got to it already ;)

Are you using vBulletin to power your message board? If not, you may need to write a ranking system yourself. In PHP, you would use a for loop to repetitively print out a .gif image, depending on a member's reputation.

I'm not so sure how much of a help this is, but I actually had to write a similar program in the past. It's posted here: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread239-hash+table.html[/url] The program that I had to write read a list of grocery list items from a file, and put them into a hash …

I'm confused what you mean. What does test.php look like? When does test.php work and when doesn't it? When test.php is in the site root, you can run it just fine?

To all those who have G5s, check out the removable side panel from your tower. The inside of it has strips of tape on 3 of the sides. Thinking this was just packing tape, I removed it. However, I was since told that it was special static tape. Does anyone …

Basically, every java program must be written within a class. The method above does not seem to be within a class (by the same filename.java) In addition, a program must always start from within public static void main(String[] args) { ... } From inside the main method, you can call …

Sorry I have no experience with anything lower than OS X on a G4/G5. What's an at ease login? Is it something like the equivalent of a BIOS password?

I'm writing a C++ program in Visual Studio.NET. I have an 18" monitor so my resolution is set to 1280x1024, and I'm taking advantage of every inch of this space to do my coding (plus I comment a lot). I'd like to print my documents out without every other line …

Check to make sure the Office XP cd isn't scratched. Make sure your CD-ROM driving is working properly. Also, download all the latest Windows Update bugfixes. You want to upgrade to Win 98 from what OS?

which site doesn't work?

First of all, what operating system is this? Are you talking about the Windows user password or the BIOS password? (I assume the Windows one?) If that is the case, sorry but you're outta luck if you totally don't have any user account with a password you remember. It's time …

Thanks for your suggestion :) By default, members are automatically subscribed to threads they post in. Not only that, but they receive e-mail notifications weekly. Most other forums send out daily notifications by default. However, I didn't want to do that because I think it would completely scare off a …

As far as I know, samba is not a mail server. What server program(s) do you use for pop3/smtp for your users? Somethng else to keep in mind is there might be a setting to keep mail on the server even after it has been downloaded. For example, your user …

I don't know much about LCD laptop screens. However, here are some questions to consider: 1. Is the laptop compatible with any other monitors? 2. Is the ebay monitor in working condition? 3. Is the ebay monitor compatible with your laptop? 4. Is the ebay monitor supported by your video …

Hey all! Last night, I upgraded to SP2. Since then, random programs have been crashing saying "wininet.dll has performed an illegal operation". I click the okay button, restart the program, and everything continues to work fine. So far this happened to explorer.exe, msnmsgr.exe, and aim.exe all within a 10 minute …

This might sound silly. But I'm working on a C# assignment for school right now, and I can't get a simple if-else statement to work. Isn't the syntax the same as in C++ or Java? I want to do one thing if a boolean variable is true, something else if …

Is there a need to enable the forum archive on vBulletin forums? I am using mod_rewrite to rewrite all of the threads to have .html extensions anyways, so I am worried about duplicate content.

Hello awaz! Welcome :)
