 | I would say that the difference is definitely worth it. Hyper-threading technology allows the processor to execute two commands at once, instead of just one, theoretically *acting* as a dual-processor system (although it's not nearly as good as a real dual-processor system, but definitely gonna be good when programs start … |
 | The forum layout was just redesigned. I decided to separate the Web Development section into a category of its own, separate from the Application Programming languages. There are no new forums and no threads moved. This only affects the hierarchy of forums and subforums as far as layout is concerned. … |

| | I had a GigaByte board with my AMD machine. No complaints about it but I wasn't exactly thrilled with it either. It was just "okay". Then I got a P4 with an Asus motherboard and I've never been happier. Since then I will only buy from Asus. :) |

| | Re: hard drive It's automatically detected provided your motherboard supports that size. For example, most older motherboards don't support drives over 80gigs - and some do only wirth a firmware upgrade. Also, make sure you set the drive's jumper settings according to the manual. |
| | Are you behind a proxy server (i.e. at work/school)? Are you using a 3rd-party firewall program? (What about Windows XP's built-in firewall, if you're using WinXP?) Aside from Outlook, are there any other Internet programs you have installed that work/don't work? (i.e. AIM, ICQ, etc?) |
| | Contrast ratio is the measurement of the difference in light intensity between the brightest white and the darkest black. The highest the contrast ratio, the better the color representation. Rather, you want to be concerned with dot pitch on a CRT monitor and with resolution on an LCD monitor. You …  |
| | What program does he use to burn CDs? Roxio? Nero? This happens with all cds? Has he tried just uninstalling the software and then reinstalling it again? Does he have a problem reading CDs/CD-Rs from the drive? (If no, it is most likely the software he's using and not a … |
| | Did the computer work before the video card was installed? Did you install the video card drivers yet? If video card drivers WERE installed, try booting your computer into safe mode. (Sorry, I forgot what to press when Windows loads to get into safe mode). Once in safe mode, uninstall …  |
| | Basically there are two ways to hook two computers together. The first way: Put a network card in each computer. In addition, buy a 2-port hub or switch. Plug one computer into one of the hub ports. Plug a second computer into the second port. You can buy a hub … |

| | How do you connect to the Internet? A network card or a dial-up modem? |
| | Check the Regional/Language options in the control panel. Use the drop down list to select a different language. Does that work? |
| | 1. Manually shut down the machine and leave it off for about 5 minutes. Then turn it back on and see what happens. 2. If you still can't boot into Windows, try getting in through safe mode. 3. If you can't even get in through safe mode, respond to this … |
 | Re: A:\ The light on your floppy drive should only be on when the computer is reading or writing to a floppy on the drive. If it's on all the time, it's because the data cable connecting your motherboard to your drive is backwards. Reverse it. When the cable is reversed, your … |
| | [thread]514[/thread] Have you checked out that thread? No, the keyboard doesn't have built-in functionality, sorry. It needs drivers and the drivers it needs are only compatible with OS 10.1 (no luck in Jaguar or Panther). |
| | I have a Design Concepts(TM) for your Macintosh sleek profile keyboard. It's distributed by CompUSA and hence purchased from CompUSA (SKU 299283). Needless to say, it's USB and I hooked it up to my iMac running OSX (Jaguar 10.2) The regular keyboard functions perfectly (and it's sooooooooo comfy) but the … |
| | Hey, everyone! I was just browsing the Statistics logs for the forums and thought ya'll might be interested. The attached graph highlights the number of NEW POSTS posted monthly. Remember, we switched from phpBB to vBulletin at the same time as we moved from techtalkforums.com over to daniweb.com, the last … |
| | The IMAX version is different though ... I would assume it'll be nice with all those special effects and action scenes. For once I'd like to see a real movie like that in Sony 3D Imax!! Now THAT would be GREAT! |
 | I did a google search and found this link for you: [url]http://www.gramasoft.com/adv-msg-plus/help.htm[/url] However, I couldn't find anywhere where it could be downloaded :( |

I tried connecting via a proxy and it worked fine. I guess it's my cable modem connection. The redirection … |
| | Re: IE6 Favourites It seems to me as if "web addy" is some form of spyware that was installed by your virus. Apparently deleting the virus didn't delete web addy along with it. I've never heard of web addy ... apparently there's a registry setting still in your machine to load that nasty … |
| | We're just trying to keep the site clean and enjoyable for everyone. Please avoid insulting comments. Thanks. |

| | Re: Difference MSN Explorer is basically Internet Explorer with a fancy skin. The skin adds a bunch of extra features to IE such as buttons to go instantly to hotmail and other MSN member/premiere sites. Changing your IE preferences changes your MSN Explorer ones as well, being as MSN explorer is really … |
| | [b]Working With C++ [/b]C++ syntax is the way which the code is arranged to form the language. Each computer language has its own unique syntax. For example, the syntax for adding two numbers may be different in one language than in another. Syntax is to programming as grammar is to … |
| | [b]OOP[/b] C++ is an object-oriented programming language. In other words, it contains what are known as objects, such as classes and structures, which allow the easy manipulation of large amounts of data. The easiest way to think of them are as records. [b]Creating Data Types[/b] When one creates a class, … |
| | [b]Breaking Code Apart[/b] By following the theories of data abstraction, described in detail in the documents section, code is broken apart into smaller segments known as functions. Functions actually operate much like their mathematical counterparts. In the simplest terms, functions act like more complex versions of operations. However, unlike mathematical … |
| | [b]Instances of a Class[/b] An instance of the class is an object which is created based on the class definition. A programmer using a pre-defined (previously written by another programmer) class has the opportunity to use certain functions which have been decided by the programmer of the class. Perhaps the … |
| | [b]Functions [/b] Locality encompasses the idea that it often takes many, many programmers to come up with a single software program. Virtually all programming languages are constructed in such a way that these various programmers don't even need to interact with eachother. This is possible because of locality. Programs are … |

 | It's really cool, definitely. Amazed you did it all in MS Paint. I can't even make a stick figure in that program! I'm going to move your post over to our graphics forum. :)  |
| | Re: zip files First, you can't do that unless you have compression software installed. If you're in Windows XP, it's built-into the operating system. If you're using a different operating system, you'll need to install compression software. You can use WinZip ([url]http://www.winzip.com[/url]) or Aladdin StuffIt Expander ([url]http://www.aladdinsys.com[/url]). |
| | Right click on any link and choose Open in New Window (or something similar). This works in just about all web browsers. |
| | Re: hmmm..... Start bar? You mean taskbar? When does this happen? Just when you start Windows? Just when you open up Internet Explorer for the first time? |
| | Re: Cable Problems Why don't you install SP1? If anything it'll fix a lot of bug and security patches. |
| | Some windows98 cds are bootable - not all though. Try a different CD if you have one. |
| | I'm a little confused. I haven't looked at VB in a a bunch of years, but that code you just posted looks right? The only help I can offer is to DIM your global variables in Option Explicit. It seems you have them all declared upon hitting the "Save" button. …  |
| | What, exactly, are the specs of your burner. DVD+RW and DVD-RW are two different standards/technologies that are incompatible. I, for example, have a Sony DVD+RW drive. It will ONLY write to DVD+RW disks. It won't even write to DVD+R disks! (Nevermind DVD-R/W) There are some new combo drives out that … |
| | No, no. She doesn't. Alice was my experiment at an Artificial Intelligence bot member of the forums (restricted to the geek's lounge, of course). However, she was really an Annoyingly Stupid bot member. |
 | Re: Crc Windows 98 or Me? (and if Me, could you do a system restore to before the problem started?) Problem just started happening or has always had problems? Hardware specs? |
| | I installed mytop but it won't run.

| | Re: help (freeze) Not having enough RAM could definitely affect performance. In addition, only 1.5 gigs left of hard drive space could definitely be a factor as well (i.e. you need a pagefile) Windows 98 certainly isn't as bloaded as Windows XP, of course, but it does have it's quirks. Has this always … |
| | Re: XP Testing It's almost two years later and you haven't kept us updated :-P It's a wonder what you find when you sort the forum threads oldest first ;) |
| | Can't log into web pages? It seems to me like a cookie problem. You probably have Norton security settings configured to disable cookies or to only allow cookies from certain domains. As for h40r.exe, I've never heard of it either, unfortunately. Unfortunately, it sorta seems like a virus/trojan file. I … |
 | Re: new mother board It depends on your particular circumstances. Are you buying a new processor to go along with the new motherboard? Are you sure your motherboard supports your existing peripherals and everything you want to use it for? |
