    802.11b isn't good enough?

    Yeah new routers do have increased range and performance, especially over a mr814 v2 which is, what...2 years old I think? 802.11g has a better range than b, So you should be able to see improvements with a g router.

    CRT vs. LCD

    From my experience LCD is DEFINITELY a lot easier on the eyes. In the lab we have CRTs only and my eyes get red and tired after staring at them for less than an hour. With my LCD I stare at it for more than 4 hours at a time and I don't feel much strain. And IMHO I don't think it's a matter...

    How to make an external HDD work with a Mac?

    I tried using disk management (compmgmt.msc) but it would not let me format it with FAT32, mine is also a 250 GB drive. What should I use to format it with FAT32?

    How to make an external HDD work with a Mac?

    My friend has a external HDD formatted with NTFS, so it's not working with her Mac. If I just reformat it with FAT32, would it work? Also, I heard that it matters between formatting on Windows with FAT32 versus formatting on Mac with FAT32. Thank you for any help / advice!

    Administrator Account Disappeared?

    To my understanding, XP guards the Admin account from ever being deleted, afterall, if the admin account is gone you pretty much can't do anything on the computer. But my friend somehow "lost" his admin account, and his computer now does not have any admin accounts. Accessing the user...

    Old BIOS won't recognize more than 8 gig of HDD?

    Can I get more details about how to use fdisk with a win98 floppy? or is it pretty self explanatory once i get there? I tried the LBA stuff before I posted the questions and they did me no good tho.

    Old BIOS won't recognize more than 8 gig of HDD?

    Some of you may have read my previous posts requesting help with a computer that has issues booting from CD ROM. In the end, I took the HDD (belongs to my friend, who has an ancient computer) and put it inside my own computer to reformat it (fix a partition that was messed up). After I...

    New computer build wont start up

    Doubt it's a faulty mobo or cpu, those don't happen a lot usually. If your certain that you installed everything correct (CPU aligned correctly blah blah blah), check for any shorts because that's what it sounds like. Is your mobo installed with spacers in between the case and mobo etc etc...

    Moving Hard Drive with XP installed

    I posted recently about how a friend's PC is having issues booting the XP CD from CD ROM so here's the question: If I reformat and install XP (Retail version, not OEM) by putting it into my own computer, which i know for sure i can boot the XP CD without any problem, and then move it back to...

    I think i know what you're talking about...my monitor had that too (for black some parts seem lighter than the other) I did the white balance auto adjust with the buttons on the monitor, and did an auto adjust and it became way better. You might want to try playing with those stuff in the...

    Does software have anything to do with hardware?

    Of course! Every line of code in the software eventually gets translated into machine language that the hardware can execute for the software to even run.

    CD drives that won't let you boot from CD?

    CD is actually bootable, I tried booting from it with my own computer The pc being fixed is able to read the cd once logged into windows. I can install components from the XP CD and such, explore the contents etc

    CD drives that won't let you boot from CD?

    This doesn't make sense to me, but I've been trying to fix a friend's computer with a messed up partitioning on the Hard drive, so naturally I try to boot from the XP CD to reformat the hard drive. The weird thing is, it won't let me....I set the BIOS so that it uses the CD ROM as the primary...

    Newly built PC will not start

    The DFI LanParty nF4 SLI-DR NF4 939 is a MOBO that if you don't use spacers, you'll probably notice something is wrong. Like I said, my friend (first-timer in building pc) screwed it directly to the case, and that dented the back panel of the soft aluminum case (this mobo has HUGE screws that...

    Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM: Failure

    Thanks, but unfortunately the issue isn't so simple in this case =[ I checked the CDROM and the floppy drives as one of the first things I did. The cd and floppy runs normally (autoruns normally, i can explore the cd contents when logged into Windows, and so on) It just won't boot from them

    Newly built PC will not start

    My friend had the same MOBO and he had the same problem too, he thought it was the video card at first too. The cause of his problem was pretty dumb...I went to check out what's wrong and realized he screwed his MOBO directly to the case (no spacers) and was shorting out the MOBO making it...

    Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM: Failure

    I am fixing a friend's computer right now, her dad bought a new 300 gb hard drive but didn't know what a partition is apparently, and accidentally partitioned the hard drive into a 10 gb partition. Usually this would be pretty straigh forward to fix, just switch to boot sequence to boot from CD...

    SATA...need windows to be installed first?

    the voltage switch (red switch) was correct and it definitely wasn't a short. I solved the problem now, thanks to Algae Eater in pointing me to the right direction tho. It was a PSU to mobo connection problem that is now solved. Oh and it turns out that the MOBO does detect the SATA right...

    SATA...need windows to be installed first?

    Hmm right now the computer won't even start up (as if there's no power). Before when this happen it's usually a jumper (pwr switch jumper) in the wrong place or the PSU not turned on. But in this case those aren't the problem. From what u said, the SATA hard drive would not be the reason...

    SATA...need windows to be installed first?

    I'm building a new computer for my family, and even though I've always built my own computers this is the first time I decided to use an SATA hard drive. So I got a WD Caviar 250 GB SATA 3 GB/s hard drive and a MOBO that supports SATA 3.0 GB/S (an ASUS A8N-VM). After I finished the...

    My Documents and Local Disk folders thinks they're music albums

    I don't know why this happened, but my friend told them it's happened to them before so I assume it's a bug in XP's wonderful folder setting system. For normal folder, you can choose customize them into "Music Albums" "Photo Albums" "General Documents" and all these different type of folders...

    Laptop battery charging LED does not turn off

    I tried the battery calibration function built into the laptop's bios and now the laptop gets to 55% and keeps on charging without getting any further...(stays at 55% no matter how long it's being "charged"). Does this sound more like a laptop's charging utility problem or a battery problem?

    Laptop battery charging LED does not turn off

    I have an ABS Mayhem G4 Laptop and recently the LED that indicates "battery is charging" stays on even when the power management utility says it's charged to 100%. I thought that maybe the battery is mis-gauged so I discharged the battery and recharged it. It usually recharges within 2 hours...

    Help! Can't enter BIOS

    Thx! It turns out that the HD was the one causing the problem. I disconnected the HD and I was able to get into the BIOS. Do you know why the Hard drive would cause something like that? Western Digital makes pretty good HD I thought.
