First take a minute to consider your usage. If you're primarily using your connection for web browsing and downloading large files, cable can be great, but if you do any gaming at all you may want to stick to DSL, as latency can be MUCH higher on cable, especially during peak hours. (of course...
I have two networked WinXP boxes using the Linksys broadband router / switch, and I run a Shoutcast music server from one of them. I used to use a KVM switch for access to both, but decided to switch to using a WinXP remote connection to administer remotely. Previously, I had no problems...
Question: If I asked you two years ago whether Afghanistan (or Al Qaeda / Taliban / etc) posed a threat to us, would you have honestly answered in the affirmative? Would you after they killed 3000 people?
I felt pretty threatened when two skyscrapers fell over a block away from me...
I've got an A7N8X deluxe and a Linksys 2-port KVM switch with a Microsoft optical Intellimouse, and for some reason when I use the KVM switch I get quite a bit of mouse stutter with Windows alone (works fine on my other Linux box connected). I am quite sure it's not the wiring or the switch...
Does it sound like a motor-related noise (a buzzing / humming) or an electrical-related noise?
I once had a cracked capacitor in a Dell power supply that caused an extremely high-pitched noise, so it had to be replaced.
I can't remember if the TruePower lines have two fans like the SmartPower...
What version of Windows are you using?
If you have ACPI enabled (which you probably do) in either Windows 2000 or Windows XP, there is no way to change the IRQ since ACPI takes control of these, whether or not you try to set them in the BIOS.
Where did you buy your computer? If they have tech...
This is actually a known issue with the SB Live! family of cards and that chipset. I had the same problem with an X-gamer card on an Abit KT-7 using Win98 / Win2K.
Although ACPI will take over the BIOS-assigned IRQ's (which you can't prevent unless you disable ACPI), I found that by...
After performing a clean install of XP Pro and updating to SP1 (and installing the Asus Nforce drivers 1.16), I'm unable to successfully install the Nvidia drivers (2.00 from the website). In the midst of the install when it begins installing IDE drivers my system crashes. I neglected to...
I'm more concerned with usability and stability (ie driver support, etc). There were some really strange changes between 7 and 8 that took me forever to figure out (mostly WRT networking) and wreaked havoc with my setup, and am wondering if 9 is any closer to the elusive Linux nirvana? :)
FreeDOS (www.freedos.org) is an opensource DOS work licensed under GPL.
I should correct myself, however, as DR-DOS (www.drdos.com) is free as well and is much more functional than FreeDOS. You can download the floppy images from their website, or even install it on a hard drive...
Hmm...and foriegn cars never break down, right? That's why you see so many 1980 Beemers on the street... (we all know their styling was 20 years ahead of time)
If your price range is really up to $400 now, I would *highly* recommend the Canon Powershot S30. It's got more professional grade features than any other camera its price range and the quality is on par with their high-end SLR's (if you've ever had the pleasure of using one). I can't...
Ditto.
Not only that, do you have a modem in your cellphone, or are you planning on transmitting wirelessly from your PC? (that, it would seem to me, is the bigger technical hurdle even if the software exists).
Tullphan, in addition to what's been posted here's what I'd recommend based on my experience:
1) Use ZoneAlarm instead of Sygate. While they are both decent products, from the sound of things I think ZoneAlarm would suit you much better (and I have never been hacked with ZoneAlarm, but I have...
