    What is the best Anti-Virus software?

    I find that Norton does a good job of detecting viruses but a pitiful job detecting malware. Even with Norton 2009, I've seen computers loaded with scareware and spyware. The same with McAfee, except McAfee is a bloated and slow. McAfee had the brilliant idea of replacing the efficient Microsoft...

    Any way to extract recorded programming from my Cable Box DVR?

    I have the exact same DVR. There is no way to get the file off. The SA8300HD uses an unique file system not recognized by Windows. I never tried in Linux. You can transfer them. However, the FireWire interface only works on unencrypted channels and you really need a Mac otherwise the FireWire...

    what's the easiest way to back up my files?

    Try Microsoft's SyncToy. It does not back up the registry, but it works great for backing up documents. And best of all, its free! I use it to back up to a network hard drive nightly. SyncToy has several options, but the one I use is to mirror the changes on my local hard drive. SyncToy then...

    Problem playing videos from CBS.com

    Do you have any ad-blocking going on with your router or security software? If you do, it does block videos.

    Got a bad virus, how screwed am I?

    If you can't access antivirus sites, you have a rootkit. Download the sysinternals.com rootkit revealer, print the results, and google the suspicious ones. To be most accurate, don't use your computer while using rootkit revealer because if something gets deleted or modified, it shows up and...

    XP OEM reinstall questions

    The thing about Windows XP is that OEM keys are only good on OEM discs. The same for retail and upgrade versions. There is one file that specifies all this information. It is the \i386\setupp.ini file. Read this link and you may be able to fix your problem...

    In your opinion, which was a bigger jump in terms of wow factor and quality?

    VHS to DVD. Mainly because VHS tapes slowly degraded over time and with DVD its all-or-nothing for its quality. I made the mistake of buying an older movie on HD DVD, specifically Apollo 13 which wasn't that old. The improvement in picture quality was so slight that I had to pause the movie...

    Car Dealerships

    http://www.beatthecarsalesman.com/ I love that website. The best part is the guilt trip some dealers put on him. Some of these dealers act like it is one of the 7 deadly sins to haggle. Just remember that a cornered animal is the most dangerous one. These guys have been exposed, and like a...

    Car head unit reviews

    I love my Pioneer head unit. What I like best about it is the Premier series has "Premier" displayed boldly, but Pioneer is hard to find. Who wants to steal a Premier brand of car stereo? That sounds like a Wal-Mart brand. As another perk, the Premier series has a longer warranty, higher pre-amp...

    Who's owned a convertible?

    I have a Nissan 350z roadster. I love it. When the temperatures are just right, there is no greater joy in driving that with the top down. I found with my Z that I get better gas mileage with my top off than with it on, even when I'm not running the AC. Therefore, unless it is 80+ or 65-...

    I'm reasonably certain Fox is trying to singlehandedly destroy Blu-Ray

    Hmm ... Well, Fox was a hair-trigger away from dumping Blu-Ray for HD DVD, but the BDA bribe got the better of them. However, Fox is not trying to make Blu-Ray fail, Fox is just being Fox. That is to say, being stupid. Remember, this is the same Fox that canceled Futurama and Firefly, two of the...

    AMD's Webcast Phenom II "Deneb"

    The more I read about Phenom II, the more I like. I've already decided against the Core i7 due to lack of funds. I was just waiting for the official release of Denab before I went with the Core 2 Quad or Phenom II. Of course, I want to see a benchmark on Anandtech before I decide.

    IRQL_less_than_or_not_equal errors

    If you are having problems POST-ing, I would start with a BIOS update if one is available. Then I would suspect your motherboard could be dying. But the memory or hard drive can be dying too. I would backup the critical data right away. Did you run chkdsk yet? STOP 0x7A means Windows failed...

    Found this in the release notes: That is on page 8 of the release notes. https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/67..._812_release_notes.pdf Great, just great. Many of the computers sold today have 64-bit on it, and they don't have it ready.

    Buy 10 select blu-ray movies and receive $100 discount

    Good deal ... if the movie selection was good. The Bond movies are good, but experience has shown me that older HD movies offer little visual improvement over the DVD. I'm not going to re-buy 80's and early 90's movies.

    BSOD right after Windows XP splash screen.

    I going to assume you are using Windows XP. Unless the motherboard is the same, you are going to have to do a fresh install or in-place upgrade. Even if it is the same, you still might have to do that. An in-place upgrade is Microsoft's way of saying repair installation. If you are using...

    Antivirus Solution

    NOD32 then Kaspersky then Trend Micro (not recommended) then McAfee (recommended even less) then Norton (don't touch with a 2000 foot pole) Trend Micro used to be very good, but they became complacent. It detects slightly more than McAfee, but still misses a lot. McAfee is a resource hog...

    EA's DRM, arrogance may cause gamers to skip good titles

    EA is the son of Satan. Madden NFL was second-rate compared to NFL 2Kx. When EA bought the exclusive rights for NFL player names, I decided immediately to boycott EA Sports. But I was thinking about Spore until I read about the DRM. Then I decided to boycott EA until they treat the consumer...

    Reconsidering Phenom?

    I'm reconsidering Phenom, but not the current Phenoms. When Nehalem was first announced, I was biding my time waiting for it. Then I saw Anandtech's initial review about how gaming won't be improved that much. So I started to wait for Nehalem so I could get a Core 2 Quad on the cheap. Today...

    Does Microsoft HD-DVD add-on support Blu-Ray?

    I was pre-ordering my HD-DVD drive for my 360 and the EB Games manager told me that the HD-DVD add-on for the 360 will support Blu-Ray after an update. I went along with it, but I'm skeptical. Anybody heard anything along those lines? However, if it will ...

    xp rants

    "What exactly do you mean by "delayed at your request"?" When I tell a program, any program, to open, I want the OS to put everything else on hold and get to my request, that is, open my program that I want opened. In other words, I want Windows priority system redone. User inputs and program...

    xp rants

    Okay, nobody has said this yet, but the biggest thing wrong with Windows XP is that if an application refuse to terminate, then Windows will not shut it down without your permission. For example, I tell the computer to shut down and restart. I want it to do that no matter what. I walk away...

    What is the difference between the word principle and principal?

    Principle is more-or-less a broad rule. For example, if I said don't drive dangerously, then you wouldn't drive drunk, on the wrong side of the road, have your headlights off at night, and so on. Here's another for: what is the difference between discreet and discrete?

    How to import music from a protected CD

    First, sue the record companies. Second, report it to FatChucks, www.fatchucks.com, where there is a list of copy-protected CD's. Third, does the CD play at all in your computer? If not, look on the back. Where there is music/data on the CD, the disc is lighter. If there are two lighter...

    MS Office Woth It?

    No. 99.9999999999% of all the stuff in it is not need by anyone at anytime. Of course, that is a hyperbole. Get StarOffice instead or an old copy of Office. Unless you own your own small business and need a big tax write-off, don't shell out any cash for Office.

    Did your State make the "worst drivers list"?
