Remove Filter  | Hello all, Decided to post in here as thought it would be safer, and wasn't sure if I'd be violating any rules on any other threads. Basically I'm looking for a Family Fortunes-type game that I can edit (questions and answers) and use - and I need it for a … |

| | Hi there, I'm hoping one of you more experienced guys can help. I'm helping a guy at work, lent his laptop to someone, and it came back exhibiting the above symptoms, that is Internet Explorer opening and trying to access some "moe spirit" or something website. Anyway we knew something …  |
| | I have two old laptops that I would like to get rid of now, as I have no more use for them. They're both Compaq Laptops, one is an Armada, the other is an Evo. They are pretty low spec, I'm talking Celeron processor and 56 MB RAM and Pentium … |
| | Hi All, Usually able to deal with PC monsters but this one has me all but beat. It's a Dell Inspiron 1525 for a colleague with 32bit Vista on it, SP1 only (SP2 wouldn't install but after a lot of online searching and trying various fixes, I decided it's the …  |
| | I may be late, but a work colleague showed me it this morning and I thought I should share with the people on here. Do watch the video at the top of the page if you can, and look at the progress one year after (at the bottom) as well. …  |
| | Hi there, hope someone can help, I was just wondering WHERE it is possible to get such an adapter (i think they are VGA adapters) as I have mentioned above, one that will at least connect ur monitor to your PS2 so that you can use it as TV. I … |
| | Hey DW peeps, Got the audio/video stuttering thing on my XP computer that started randomly - after I installed Debian 5 (though onto a diff HD to what XP is installed on) ;) Didn't think my dual booting should have anything to do with it and so I've posted here. … |
| | Well it's either this, or the domain name has been removed from the routing table. Or my Firefox is just being very biased about my browsing experience!:) Go on, [URL="http://www.microsoft.com/"]try it out now[/URL] (note depending on when you're reading this, it might have come back up and so it'll just … |
| | Is it me or is it easier to configure a home network in XP than to setup a wireless adapter in Debian??? I've read through various online resources about iwconfig, ifconfig, linux_wan, orinoco but I still don't get it. And more importantly I couldn't get it to work! Is Ubuntu … |
| | [URL="http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/organgrinder/2009/apr/01/newspapers-dailymail"]Here[/URL]'s a round-up of some (not all i believe) of the AFD 09 gags. Whaddya think, which one was your favourite, and share ones that aren't in the blog (our cousins across the Atlantic?).  |
| | Hahahaha this made me chuckle so I thought i'd share. I went on YT today, just to test flash functionality with a new browser and OS, and I clicked on a random vid of the IT Crowd. And then got a screen with most of it upside down. Wasn't quite … |
| | Hi guys I've got a good one. Colleague brought problem to me, as subject says it's an ACER Aspire 9303 ([URL="http://global.acer.com/products/notebook/as9300.htm"]specs here[/URL]). The user turned it on (hadn't used it since before christmas) and apparently found out that sound not working. I'm led to believe it worked at some point … |
| | This looks like an old one (so some of you might have seen it before), but I've only just seen it and think it's mildly amusing. Read [URL="http://www.jokes.com/funny/technology/how-operating-systems-are-like-knights"]here[/URL]. |
| | Hello all, I've been using Firefox for over a year now I think, ages anyway, and ever since I've never really been able to view motion-media on it (i.e. videos on YouTube, adverts and banners, websites with a flash intro, etc). So if I go to YT for instance, I … |
| | Hey people, This is for Windows Admins and such like, and I guess to some degree Windows users. I am basically trying to find out people's thoughts and predictions - When will Windows Server 2003 and related technologies become "outdated"? When will there be a greater proportion of 2007 servers … |
| | Hi Administrators/Moderators, I've been using Daniweb for a while, and like it's clean look and feel, simple navigation system and just generally a homely place (like an online Pret A Manger almost) to read and talk about IT. So imagine my surprise when I logged on today and on the …  |
| | Hi all, got one that seems strange (well to me anyway). I replaced the motherboard in an HP DC5100 tower yesterday. Got the new Mobo from HP so no problem there I shouldn't think. I installed it and when I put the PC on, I got a screen telling me … |
| | It would appear that I am dealing with a computer that is working contrary to the widely accepted notion that wired connections are more reliable than wireless ones. The computer is normally connects to the network wireless using a Belkin Adapter. No problems there. However I needed to hardwire it … |
| | The title of the thread is my random yet hopefully simple question. I "googled" it but didn't find anything that seemed concrete, and so I'm hoping that someone on here will know. So again the question is, Is Vista based on XML, and if so, would it be correct to … |
| | Hello everyone, just thought I'd post this in the Windows forum as it's the most appropriate place methinks. My question is basically, why are PCs that are assembled by individuals, not as quiet as PCs that are built by HP, Dell, etc? (I know that the ones from big companies … |
| | Hello all. I'm trying to find a GOOD server for a small business of about 10 people (i.e. 10 - 11 machines, desktops and notebooks) and growing. The only server that I've been able to find is IBM system x3xxx. Could anyone please point me in the direction of any … |
| | I have had a look at some threads and stickies on here, and now I am slightly more worried than when I started looking round for options. I'll explain why in a bit. My PC (which I bought second hand, and was assembled by an individual) won't start up. It …  |
| | Hello everyone. So I've been reading the threads in this forum for a while now and haven't really found what I'm looking for. Basically I need to install a Linux-based system (onto my Windows PC) for work purposes. According to someone who's used the software etc, that I'm going to … |
| | Now I've Googled this, but didn't get anything that seemed useful, so I'm coming to Google No. 2 :-p. Does anyone know of a Firefox Extension that can obtain the bibliography information of a page? So for instance, if I was viewing a W3C Recommendation that I linked from the … |
| | My friend's old G4 needs a wireless card, and he would like to know where he can get a good one (preferably online) for a decent price? The Mac Shop he's been to are charging him something ridiculous apparently. The specs of the machine: Processor: 800 MHz G4 Memory: 256 … |
| | Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of software that can play RENTAL DVDs because the ones I have (RealPlayer and VLC Media Player) aren't doing it. They playe non-rental (bought) DVDs fine though. And whilst I'm at it, my WMP doesn't play any DVDs … |
| | Hello again people, I've got some questions about timing that I hope can be answered by someone. I'm trying to use the functions [I]getrusage[/I] or [I]times[/I], or the [I]time[/I] command to time my programs. Now I've got this piece of code that uses getrusage, and my first question is a …  |
| | Hello once again people; I hope I'm not breaking any rules or being cheeky. But I was searching for algorithms/programs on the internet that would help me with my binary search program, and then I came across the piece of code posted here (in the code snippets section)about just the …  |
| | Hey, I'm hoping someone can help out here. I'm trying to use the rand() function to generate sequential random numbers in C, and then write them to file. Now I know it's possible, I'm just not sure whether it is the way I want to do it. I have already … |
The End.
