I tried that, but I kept getting a list of available commands. I just did a bit more searching and found how to add the missing key. Now all seems to be working. Thanks.
This may be too technical for this forum, so if someone has a better place I should post this let me know. I am trying to configure Windows 2000 Server to use an external time source. I have found instructions in several places, but they all have me make registry changes to a subkey that does...
Since it works on your Vista 64 and not your sister's, it obviously is not a compatability issue between the drive and Vista. It could still be a power issue, assuming a 16GB flash drive requires more than a 4GB dirve (I don't know whether that is the case). Have you tried other USB ports on...
Just wanted to report that I purchase an HP LP2065 from Provantage (part# EF227A8#ABA). It arrived today and my wife called to say the sticker on the box indicated REV. GSM003. From what I have read that should mean S-IPS. Looks like I won the lottery!
LCD advice for special circumstances:
I have a neighbor with very poor vision who needs help choosing an LCD. To see his computer he uses special software that magnifies the screen. Essentially, the software zooms in on an earea of the screen and enlarges it to fill the entire screen. As...
Wonderful Thread! I am left with just a couple questions. I am looking for a new monitor. My criteria, in order of importance are these:
1. Viewing Angle;
2. True 8-bit color;
3. Screen uniformity; and
4. Color accuracy.
My budget is $400-$600. Given all of that, I have, based...
I'm building a new system with a Gigabyte GA-EP45 DS3L. The board has three fan headers (SysFan, SysFan2 and PVNFan plus CPU Fan of course). In the past I have chosen which fan header(s) to use based on convenience for cable routing. Is there any difference between a SysFan header and a...
I am ordering an Antec P182 and need to figure out how long the PSU cables need to be to reach the top 5.25 drive bay. I know I've read reviews that say this can be an issue. Anyone know of a resource or list of PSU's that work in this case? I am considering an Antec Earthwatts 430.
Hmm....I was referring to the Buyer's Guides that the AT staff used to write for different price ranges. The post you linked to does not provide system recommendations based on price categories as the AT Buyer's Guides used to. It is really more of a resource for "building" a PC. I posted...
Thanks for all the input. Here's what I've decided:
CPU - E7200
MB - Gigabyte P45-DS3L (shopped around and found it for only $16 more than the P35 version [which I used in a build last year])
rAM - 4GB OCZ 2x2
GPU - ASUS HD3850
HD - Seagate 500GB 7200.10
Now I just need to find a good...
I have an old PC that I want to convert to a bsic Linux box that my kids can use for web surfing, email, word processing work. Here are the specs:
MB - Abit TH7-II (Intel 850)
CPU - Intel P4 2.2A
RAM - 768MB RDRAM
GPU - ATi Radeon 8500
Any suggestions or gotchas?
With the death of the buyer's guides (and less time on my hands to do the research) I need some extra help choosing a CPU. I am thinking either the E7200 or the E8400 (20% performance difference??? for a 40% price difference).
This is going to be the new general use home PC. Lots of office...
One of my older systems (3 years) has become painfully sluggish. I have two other systems that run almost an identical hardware and software configuration that are plugging along fine. The slow down is most noticable when loading programs. I have checked the various processes, monitoring...
I recently purchased an interanl card reader and connected it to my MB on an old system. Nothing. Checked the reader on another PC, works fine. I thought that perhaps the reader was not backwards compatible to USB 1.1. So I bought a PCI to USB 2.0 card with 1 internal port (which I assumed...
I recently purchased a new Canon Rebel XSi and Kingston 4gh SDHC card. All was well for the first week or so, then last weekend I tried connecting the camera to my PC (as I had done several times before) and Photoshop Downloader said that it could not download the files from the camera and...
Unfortunately, the old machine is dead (no less than five blown capacitors on the MB). Well, I will try the repair install. If anyone else has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
I am rebuilding my father-in-law's computer. Everthing is new except the HDD (he did not want to reinstall anything). I told him it was a gamble installing an older HDD on a new MB with a different controller.
During the boot process I get past the bios screen, but just as WinXP is about...
Thanks again Jlazzaro. Between the cordless phones, intercom system and baby monitor, I think I am going to rethink using a cable. That means a trip into the attik.
I am trying to figure out the easiest way to get the audio from my PC in one room to my Audio/Video receiver in another room (without moving either component). I cannot run an audio cable between the two (not without great difficulty anyway. Even if I could manage it, does someone make a 50 foot...

I am in the market for a new mouse for my office. I am looking at the Logitech MX310, MX400 and the Microsoft Intelimouse N50. Are lasers really better than optical? The idea of a tilt wheel sounds nice for horizantal scrolling, but do they make vertical scrolling more difficult?
I am...
Wow, nice and convenient. I am building two systems next week (an E2160 and a Q6600) and was ready to do some searching through the forums for the info in this guide. Thanks for putting it all together.
I think I am going to spend a little more money and get something I will really be satified with. I am noticing that most of the monitors recommended for photo editing have a 16ms response time. Are there some with 8ms or faster?
Anyone know about the Thermalright HR-01-775? I've seen 1 review and it looks promising. I'm looking to achieve the best noise/cooling combination. Any other fan recomendations for the 120?
Sorry to go a little off topic, but I have been looking into an easier remote access option for providing support to family and friends. Is LogMeIn a reliable option? Are there any security/spyware concerns associated with LogMeIn?
Thanks.
For someone who has a small photography business, is there an advantage in going with a CRT over an LCD in $200-250 price range? If not, can you recomend an 8-bit panel display in that price range?
