Can anyone recommend a remote?

Anyone know if the ATI Remote Wonder will work with MCE 2005? I'd like to get the MCE remote, but they only have IR and I need RF for my application :) Thanks!

Multicast File distribution for Windows?

The Network infrastructure will be properly configured to handle this. As far as ghost, to my knowledge you can only do this if you have them join a ghost multicast session (Which I have used plenty in the past). However, you cannot just copy specific files onto an existing disk, you must move...

Multicast File distribution for Windows?

Hi everyone... I'm looking for a way to distribute a small number of rather large files across a network from 1 machine to 40, and I'm hoping that I can use a form of multicast to do this to limit the performance hit on the network and save time. However, I have come up empty looking for...

Possible savings for Time Warner Cable subscribers.

AU Tiger, that's good to know about Earthlink... If I decide to drop TW for television and go with DTV, I might look into it. I'm also shocked that any news servers could be worse than TW. I say I get a decent session 1 out of every 7 tries :| I'm used to Optimum Online in New York. I'd get...

Really? I wonder if it is only for new customers that they are charging $45. In addition to that, I had no choice to use my own modem, and they say they don't charge you to "rent" the modem, it is built into the cost. Do you use your own?

Getting off telemarketing call lists

EDiT, thanks for the link. It is nice to see that something national is being proposed to stop this nonsense. I personally think it is BS that caller ID does't display the phone numbers of telemarketers. It is that fact that makes me refuse to pay for such a service as CallerID.

Yes, the jumper is right back in the correct spot. If it is accidentally left in the CMOS reset mode, the system does not even power on. As for the FSB, no it is not at 140 now. Resetting the CMOS should usually take it back to 100 anyway. However, being that this board was sent back from...
