Dell 1505 TruBrite... What do you use to clean the screen?

I've got a lot of dust and smudges on my screen, and I'm wondering what you all are using to clean your screens with? I saw a post on the Dell forums saying that it's safe to use 50% water and 50% isopropyl alcohol, but I'm not sure if that's really safe or not. So what are you folks using on...

USB-A female backplate connector to USB-A male?

Does anyone know if it's possible to buy a prebuilt USB cable that has a USB-A Female backplate-style plastic block connector on one end (similar to this with the metal plate removed: http://www.frozencpu.com/usb-02.html) and on the other end is a standard USB-A Male connector? I know I could...

Is anyone else who's using a google toolbar or the "google pagerank status" or "searchstatus"plugins for firefox having trouble getting google PR numbers for sites? Every site I look at is showing up as "N/A" or "unranked".. Anyone else experiencing this? Maybe it's something on my end, but have...

Anyone have drivers for Samsung 323T 32" flat panel?

The cd that comes with the monitor has no drivers, their website hasd no drivers, and their tech support is utterly useless... Does anyone have this monitor, or access to the drivers for it? /syf3r

Casetronic C138 w/OUT power supply?

Yeah but $20 is $20 when it's something you have no use for. I suppose I can can try to get a few bucks back on ebay or something. /syf3r

Casetronic C138 w/OUT power supply?

Anyone ever seen a C138 available without the included 90W supply? I don't need the PSU and would love to save a few bucks not having to buy it included. /syf3r

Language analysis/comparison software

Does anyone know of any freeware apps out there that will take two separate blocks of text and run pattern analysis on them to determine if they were written by the same person? I've been looking around via google but not even sure of the strings I should be searching for... /syf3r

XP Pro won't read 80Gb drive formatted in 2000

Actually, the 60Gb drive *does* load, and I have access to it. However, when I boot the machine with the 60Gb in it, Windows reads the 60Gb and gives it a drive letter, but also gives another drive letter that has no access. Disk Manager shows the drive as one partition, and doesn't show any...

If you use NTFS Encryption, read this

Uhh... How are you accessing that 128-key if not by password? The version of PGP I'm using has functionality for 4096-bit encryption, and has built-in vpn that can use 1024-bit, even 4096-bit encryption. /syf3r

XP Pro won't read 80Gb drive formatted in 2000

The jumpers are set to cable select. Since there are two bays on that machine, all 5 of my pullout drives are set to cable select so I don't have to worry about placement. As I said, I just found a 120Gb drive that does work, and I also found a 60 that doesn't. I'm wondering if the two that...

XP Pro won't read 80Gb drive formatted in 2000

Okay, I just tried a 120Gb drive in another pullout bay, and it reads just fine. I have access to all the files on it. The 120Gb is also NTFS, but I can't remember on what machine I formatted it, it's been around a while. My suspicion is that the 80Gb drive was formatted on a machine on which...

XP Pro won't read 80Gb drive formatted in 2000

The drive was formatted as NTFS under 2000. I just tried putting it back in the 2000 machine and it reads just fine, so no damage was done to it when I put it in the XP machine, but the XP machine won't read it. /syf3r

XP Pro won't read 80Gb drive formatted in 2000

I've got an 80Gb drive in a pull-out bay, that was formatted as in 2000. When I put the drive in my XP Pro machine, the BIOS reads it as the proper size on bootup, but XP doesn't mount the drive. It does, however, show a drive letter for it. In Disk Management, XP shows the drive as a 7Gb drive...
