    Trouble deleting folder in WinXP

    My roommate saved some files into a folder which i'm unable to delete. There are 2 files each with 0 KB filesize, no file extension, they appear to be hidden and associated with Word somehow. They were supposedly a resume he was sent by email. When I try to delete the folder it says "Cannot...

    I've got 2 pc's and 1 is faster than the other on the net

    Spidey , If you could take the time to explain to me why it would be slower in terminal services I'd appreciate it. I'm not disputing what you've told me (I don't know enough about netowrking to dispute anything you say), I'm just simply curious. Just to specify , I'm running TS in remote...

    I've got 2 pc's and 1 is faster than the other on the net

    I've got 2 pc's here , my main pc - Windows XPSP2 tests 2476 Kbps down and 664 kbps up. My Windows 2003 Server tests 1886 kbps down and 664 kbps up on the same site (speedtest.cogeco.net). Both tests were run after clean boots. I usually access my server through terminal services and ran the...

    GTA San Andreas

    Thx melijak , I just reassigned all the "special ctrl" directional keys to the arrow keys and that got me past the Cesar mission. Still can't seem to get the right analog to control all camera directions and I haven't been able to get the gamepad to control the target on manual mode...

    GTA San Andreas

    I can't seem to get more than 1 axis out of my right analog stick. With default settings if I move the stick left or right the camera moves up and down. After playing around with some of the Invert settings in the joypad config menu , I was able to get the camera moving left or right with the...

    Problems with new pc build

    System is flaky with both of my dimms installed too. I think I'm gonna request an RMA for the board and ram too. Maybe this board would prefer some Kingston dimms installed.

    Problems with new pc build

    Ive got a set of 2 512MB Corsair Value Select Dimms in my pc now , Im going to swap them and test out both sets to see if my dimms test bad in the other pc and how the other's test in mine. Should give me an idea if it's a dimm issue or motherboard issue. I'm also using a 20pin atx on the...

    Problems with new pc build

    The ram voltage is set to default. I installed Asus Probe and it doesn't seem to display Mem voltage, neither does motherboard monitor or cpu-z. Anyone know a decent utilty to see what voltage the board is setting it to? I did manually set the mem voltage to 2.7 and command rate to 2T and it...

    Problems with new pc build

    From what I remember in cpu-z the dimms were at 200mhz DDR. They are pc 3200. Ive got 1 dimm on memtest now which is telling me it's running at 201mhz so that's fine. All settings are on Auto in the bios now like they were when i had 2 dimms in there. They also seem to run at 2.5-3-3-8 with...

    Possible problem with my 710N LCD

    Thanks for the help Mykl. Looks like you were right. 75hz is fine. Damn driver :)

    Possible problem with my 710N LCD

    The driver won't let me set it to 75 unless I uncheck the "Hide modes that the monitor cannot display". I'll try it and let you guys know if the problem persists. And according to the setup guide , 75hz is the recommended refresh rate for this monitor.

    Possible problem with my 710N LCD

    I got myself a Samsung 710N last week and I've noticed some "waviness" for lack of a better term. When set to 1280X1024@70hz I can notice lines of slightly different contrast moving diagonally from upper left to bottom right or vice versa. It's noticeable on web pages with a uniform color...

    Problem with A8V Deluxe and Matrox P650 AGP Card

    I've seen the same thing happen when drives are misconfigured via jumpers(Master/Slave/Cable Select). Though when I've seen this , the pc didn't progress very far into bootup because the drives were misconfigured. Do you have access to all your HDD's and optical drives within Windows?

    1GB of PC2700 or 512MB of PC3200

    I'd say the opposite. If you're running at 400 FSB you'll want to match the Memory bus to it. If you can't afford 1 GB of PC 3200 buy one stick now and add one later when you can.

    Great place for Canadians to shop

    BTW There is a pretty good sale which finishes today at NCIX. If I had the cash I'd get the BFG 6600 GT at 283 $ Canadian. The sale finishes today at 11pm Pacific time , so anyone interested still has a chance to get some good deals. I already picked up a 1024 MB PC 3200 Corsair Value...

    Blown Radeon?

    I'd make sure that you installed your heatsink on your gpu correctly. Are the beeps in question one long beep followed by 2 short beeps? I'd try the video card in another system if possible just to be sure.

    Cheap hot swappable removable hard drive racks. Does such a thing exist?

    I know Promise has an ide controller which supports Hot Swapping when used with one of their hot swap drive bays. I can't remember the exact model but it shouldn't be too pricey.

    Company is firing all of its smokers - whether they smoke at work or not

    So you fire them when they DO show up late for work and/or steal. Your assumptions are worth nothing. Pre-emptive firing because you believe someone's problems MAY affect their work is a joke. Your vague generalization about people with "problems" tending to be the ones that "steal" is a...

    Buying my athlon 64 3200 90nm... OEM?

    Like I said , technically your warranty would be voided by using a 3rd party HSF but AMD would never find that out unless you tell them. I think the same applies for AS. So stick with the retail CPU and get the Zalman + AS if cooling and noise are important to you.

    Mouse Pauses

    Like ITMpls said , the easiest way to narrow it down is if you try it on another PC. It's almost definitely the mouse if it does the same on another machine.

    Looking for a Video Card for Work/Office PC

    System Ram is more important for Photoshop than video ram. I really don't think there'll be any difference between a 64MB or 128MB video card in Photoshop. So if you can save money by getting a 64,go for it. I'd just make sure to avoid any really cheap generic video cards like 3Dforce or...

    RAM came back to life?

    I don't think anyone here can answer this. Without trying to insult you , the most common explanation would be that the problem wasn't ram related to begin with or that it wasn't properly seated when you tried to reinstall it in other machines. How many systems is "many" ?

    my first build... please advise

    I'd have to disagree. You're a lot less likely to have problems now and in the future if you get name brand. You definitely don't need HyperX or deluxe modules of any kind but I'd avoid generic no name ram.You also get lifetime warranties when buying Kingston or other brands' "Value" models...

    can dell 400SC's take a normal heatsink?

    Have you tried removing the heatsink, reapplying some thermal paste and cleaning the heatsink thoroughly with some compressed air ? I've seen a heatsink + fan clean up reduce temps by up to 10 degrees C.

    Help. System refuses to accept OS

    Heh. What's funny is that the "Your motherboard does not have an ACPI compliant bios" is actually an indication that your ram is defective. When a multiboot OS machine I had showed me a different blue screen error for each OS , I did the research and found MS knowledge base articles for...

    Athlon Mobile vs. Athlon64 - Suprised

    One benchmark is definitely not enough to base an opinion on. I wouldn't be too worried. As far as other benchmark apps , just take a look at the huge number of cpu reviews available here and elsewhere and try one of those.

    Buying my athlon 64 3200 90nm... OEM?

    The only way AMD would ever find out you were using another HSF is if you tell them. If you do decide to use another HSF , hold on to the stock one. For the Athlon XP's , AMD uses the sticker on the HSF to determine if your cpu is under warranty. Don't know if this is the case with the A64's...
