 | Don't get discouraged, it all starts to make sense with a little time. :) |
| | Google has just released the beta of its brand new web browser called Chrome. I have used it a little bit now and I really like it. All of the extras it offers are very cool, but the best part as far as I've seen is the AMAZING speed that … |
 | Where I work we use redhat and xen all over the place.... dropping it will just give me a good reason to learn something else :) Can't wait. |
| | Do you hear any 'beeps' when its failing to boot? Cheers :) |
| | I can't tell you what you should go for, but I had a similar story (started writing in Basic on a Commodore 64 in 1989) and I ended up a Linux Sys Admin. LAMP applications and Clustering are fun times. Cheers |
| | Re: DNS Error Considering its only happening on one computer I would think the problem is a setting on that machine. Like maybe someone has manually set the DNS server addresses on your computer. Go into the network interfaces and set them to use DHCP. If they are already set to use DHCP … |
 | I suggest giving more details than "it wont boot"... No one will be able to help you if they don't have details :) Cheers! |
| | I love it mad hatter... I totally agree. RANT ON! |
| | Re: Virtulization You might want to look into a thin client server. The user's machines connect to the server on boot and the server "gives" them an OS that is running as an instance on the server... So all the processing is being run on the server, and the end user's machine … |
| | When I first started using Windows Vista I ran into this problem. I couldn't find where the "Run" link was! I finally had to google it...(having not known the hot keys to get it all these years... tsk tsk) So in case you have just bought/installed Windows Vista (poor soul) …  |
| | My personal suggestion is to download firefox and call it a day. The only url I ever enter into IE is [url]www.mozilla.com[/url] Out of curiosity, what OS are you on and what version of IE are you running? |
| | Google has just released the beta of its brand new web browser called Chrome. I have used it a little bit now and I really like it. All of the extras it offers are very cool, but the best part as far as I've seen is the AMAZING speed that … |
| | Did you run your scans in safe mode? And yes i said scan's'. No one spyware app can get all the nasties. ~Mike  |
| | I would uninstall zonealarm and AVG, then disable the windows firewall. I have heard about many issues like this when ZoneAlarm is involved. |
 | |
| | Hello, The way to see if you can get anything off of your hard drive is to buy a cheap external drive case (about $20) and put the hard drive in there and then plug the USB into your computer.... That will tell you if it is a problem with …  |
 | I have had great results speed wise with Google Chrome... Seems to open pages faster than both IE and firefox.. The downside is it's just in Beta, so glitches happen from time to time. (Reply written in firefox) |
| | I have a presario with the same light you are talking about.... It is NOT the HD indicator.. (people should not just guess on forums) There is a small LED light located about an inch and a half UNDER the green Power light, THAT is the HD indicator. Everything I … |
| | See if it will boot from the winXP install cd, to make sure its not a driver locking up... ~Mike |
| | Re: lan card problem Right click "My Computer" select "properties", click the "hardware" tab, click the "Device Manager" button. Expand "network adapters" and find your ethernet card. Right click it and select "uninstall". Then immediately restart your computer.. When the machine reboots it will install your ethernet card completely fresh... This solves most connectivity … |
| | Just in case you were asking about physical danger to yourself... It's not likely.. the fuses/breakers in the house will blow before you could shock yourself by having a water cooled machine. If a water leak were to happen and contact anything that "could" shock you, it would short out … |
| | What the real question is, is if you have PCI, AGP, or PCIE (PCI Express) the x16 is the speed. Your Mother Board has the following slots: * PCI-E x16: 1 * PCI-E x1: 1 * PCI: 3 So what you want is a video card that is PCI Express … |
| | I have tried everything I know and I can't get one of my machines to display the right time... I have turned off ntpd so it won't interfere with my settings.. I set the time zone to America/Los_Angeles and the time is 5 hours behind what it should be. I … |
| | Re: Crazy Router Have you gotten connected to the internet using an ethernet cable coming from the linksys? My suspicion is there is some sort of ip conflict or network conflict.. For instance, when you link two routers together like you have, the two routers must be on a different network from each … |
| | When ever I have tried to see linux files with a windows machine, the windows machine has been blind... The reason for me was that windows systems don't see the file system "ext3", but Linux machines can see NTFS. You may be more versed in linux than me, but that …  |
| | Sounds to me like you have a process that starts up at boot time, that is eating all your memory up... The computer being very "active" is your system using virtual memory because your system RAM is taken up by this rogue process.. You should hit ctrl > alt > … |
 | Re: Set up KVM I think he was talking about using cables to connect all of the machines to the KVM itself, but using a small software application to do the actual switching... meaning no hardware switch. The KVM would be somewhat of a hub for Keyboard, Video, Mouse with software monitoring which machine … |
| | I would see if the firewall has a "white list" or a list of trusted sites.. and add the two sites to that list and see if that fixed it. Cheers, ~Mike |
| | Re: Hi there. There is a LOT of work to web hosting... Sure it seems like setting up a server and just collecting money, but that is NOT CORRECT. It just gets worse the more sites you host... You have to be on call 24 hours a day, in case the server goes … |
| | I'm not sure about the wireless backup devices, I would guess you would plug them into a desktop that is wired into the network and then map them as a network drive from your laptops... As far as the printer goes, you need a wireless print server. I have seen … |

| | Re: RAM has issues!? Video Shared memory is when you have an integrated graphics card, which means your graphics card is built into your motherboard. When this is the case, your motherboard "borrows" system memory to process graphics (not good, not fast). The best way to change/fix this is to buy and install an …  |
| | You can permanently delete files (without them going into your recycle bin) by right clicking the file, then holding down the 'shift' key while clicking 'delete'. It will ask for conformation to permanently delete the file. Click 'yes', and its GONE! Hater of the recycle bin, ~Mike :) |
 | Re: Check Your Ping Ping is a good way to see if there is a problem with your connectivity to the internet... Also, once in a GREAT while, only certain website will not come up, and others will display fine... in this case you can try pinging your DNS servers, if one pings, and … |
 | Re: Boot_up delay There is a condition called "cold solder" where the connection wont transfer electricity until the connection warms up. My guess is when you leave the power supply plugged in, it retains enough heat to not have this problem. When you leave it unplugged, then it loses all of its heat … |
| | You could also try re-installing your NIC driver. Click "start" > Right click "My Computer" > choose "Properties". Click the "Hardware" tab. Click on "Device Manager". Click on the '+' sign next to "Network adapters". Right click whichever device mentions the word Ethernet, (different NIC's will have different names, but … |
| | I personally would go get a wireless router. That way you can hook your dsl modem to the wireless router, and then both of your laptops will connect to the router... That's the norm for home networks. :) Then you can set up file sharing in windows to transfer files … |
| | It could also possibly be the config in your nic.... Could you please paste the output of ipconfig /all? In case you aren't familiar with how to do that here is how: 1. Go to 'Start' > click on 'Run'. ( or in vista, hold the 'windows key' and press … |
 | Amen brother! The only problem is the software developers are not in charge of making decisions about if they should put in a pop-up or not... The advertising "experts" are in charge of that. So the poor software developer just grits his teeth and does his job. And the fact … |
| | Another thought.... While you were building the site did you change your hosts file to point to a dev server? If so maybe you forgot to change the hosts file back after you moved it to a live server? Just a thought. (I've done it before hehe) Cheers |
| | Any crimpers that actually crimp the ends in, will work. The only question is a matter of comfort. Some crimpers demand forearms the size of Popeye's on spinach. Others are called ratcheting crimpers, and take very little effort to get the ends on nice and tight. I suggest the ratcheting … |
| | Hello everyone, first I'd like to say this looks like a great site and I plan to use it and pass it along as much as possible. Secondly, I started to install Win XP HOME on a pc, and when i went to format the HD it would get all … |
The End.
