Killer NIC network Card

No. Just as an example, I had a friend who used to play in the old CS days when broadband was starting to blow up. Everyone had 1.5 - 5 Mbps and a new computer. He was broke and had an old machine that barely played the game and a 56k connection; yet he owned everyone. Nowadays, the average...

SMOKING!! - Logitech diNovo Edge $79.99 @ Best Buy

RDP and Windows XP - multiple sessions

The .dll is not hacked. The registry modification can also be done through the group policy mmc, via Microsoft's own interface, it is not hidden. In terms of licensing, if it is illegal, then I don't recommend it. Keep in mind that by this reasoning, VNC is illegal as well.

RDP and Windows XP - multiple sessions

Based on the fact that you say they get cranky, I am assuming you want to RDP into their system without sharing their desktop. If this is the case, then you can probably get away with using the old termserv.dll and also a few registry tweaks. I know this to be true as I have 6 concurrent...

Remote Desktop Question

If you are merely trying to record shows and not actually watch them over the network, you can try using VNC. The quality will be low, but it should be enough for you to decide what to record.

Script to automagically set a proxy on login

If you are going the policy route, do not let the users have install privileges otherwise they will install more browsers. In which case, you would have to lock those down as well.

Dreaded BSOD Error

Sounds like you are on the righ track. Hopefully it is a heat-related issue as you first hypothesized. You might want to clean the fans and filters if you have any. Normally it is recommended to clean your system once a year. If you decide to do the cleaning, remember to take it outside, it...
