I have a Sony Z laptop. It has two graphucs modes, Stamina and Speed. When I have it on Stamina mode, the mouse freezes for about 2 to 3 seconds after almost any amount of inactivity. If I do noting for 30 seconds, the system takes 3 seconds to respond to any mouse movements. I can also hear...
This printer works fine, but it takes extremely long for print jobs to spool and start printing when they are sent from my desktop. The Print Preview window takes about 60 seconds to appear.
Strangely, when I send a print job from my laptop (again, wirelessly), it starts printing right away...
I access other https sites without any problems.
Regarding the 3D Traceout program, I don't think I would even know where to begin. Which function would I use in that program???
And forgive me, but how do I go about using the open DNS servers??? Sorry, I'm not all that good with...

The connection times out and I get the IE message "Internet Explorer can not open the web page".
Since I am able to access all other internet sites, and I was able to ping the site through my ISP's servers using a command line through Start/Run/CMD, I was thinking it couldn't be a problem...
I have been using my current modem and wireless router for over 2 years with absolutely no problems. Over the past two weeks, I have been unable to connect to one web page (Microsoft Live cash back). I thought it was a problem with the page, but today I tried to troubleshoot it.
Long story...
I am looking to purchase an All In One (AIO) printer with fax capability tomorrow (Black Friday). Photo quality is the most important to me.
Canon Pixma or HP Photosmart???
I have the first shipping version of this board but it is fsb limited to 356 fsb. I am otherwise happy with the board though, so much so I am thinking about purchasing a newer version with 1.85 VMCH.
What is the latest and highest fsb stable version of this board?
Just installed this external hard drive, configured as RAID I for backup purposes with automatic backups set using Retrospect Express HD. However, I'm unclear on how to use/configure power.
Do I need to manually turn this thing on and off everytime I turn my PC on and off for the auto...
I have a fairly new fresh install of Windows XP Pro, but I am having periodic freezes in IE7. I would like to debug the file that WIndows creates when this happens (appcompat.txt) but I have never done this before and don't even know if there is a built in tool to do this or if IU have to...
It's not the laptop. There are indicator lights on my Belkim N1 wireless router. There is one for "Internet", and it goes out when I lose connectivity (about once every other day).
This is my second Sprint DSL modem as well. Also, I need to clarify...I can connect to the wireless router (i.e.: with my laptop), but I can't get on-line with the laptop unless I reset the wireless router.
So the wireless router continuously allows connection to the wireless network, but it...
This is driving me crazy. I'm on my second wireless router. First was Netgear, this one is Belkin N1.
They both lose their connections (to my Sprint DSL modem) daily, and I need to unplug it to reboot it and then the connection is reestablished and all is fine.
I have tried using a UPS...
If I have my external WD drive powered on before I boot, my system will not boot and I get an error message to boot off a valid drive. My BIOS settings do not point to this external USB hard drive, but if it is powered on, it prevents my system from booting off of my C drive.
The WD drive...
It didn't come with the card. I couldn't find one locally, and since my PSU is outdated (although it was the best of the best at the time...PC Power & Cooling), I just went and picked up an Antec 480 TruPower PSU and an Antec 500 SmartPower PSU.
Couldn't decide in the store. SmartPower was...
Got a new system all ready to go (E6600 Core 2 Duo, Asus P5W-DH Deluxe and 2GB OCZ DDR2) and just realized the video card does not have the required 6-pin power adapter.
Do any chain electronics stores carry these things?
OK, here's is my new syste.:
E6600 Core 2 Duo
Asus P5W-DH Deluxe
ATI X1900XT
I usually can't help myself and tend to buy the best after thorough research, but there are so many different memory options out there.
What are my best memory options that will not hold me back in terms of...
Why use 975X when RD600 completely owns 975X at stock and overclocked and it overclocks farther too?
Totally independant memory overclocking in 1fsb incrememnts to ddr1200, set the cpu to 349fsb and the ram to 436fsb if you like, unlike intel.
1T CMD, unlike intel which only give you 2T...
Very strange. I just started disconnecting everything and trying to reboot. I even swapped the video card (I found an old ATI 8500) and no go.
Then I disconnected my hard drives, and I posted with a video signal (with the ATI 8500). So I figured it was one of my hard drives. But then I...
Looks like my system just died...a P4 2.4 Ghz CPU overclocked to 3.0 Ghz on an Asus mobo. I have standard DDR ram.
For an overclocker looking for most "bang" for the buck, what are my best options, keeping in mind I do not want to uneccesarily replace all my components from my ~2 yr old...
Been a while since I asked for help on these boards, but you guys have never let me down.
I was just surfing the net and my display went black, and my hard drive stopped making the usual activity noises. I have powered down and tried to reboot numerous times...no luck.
When I power on I...
Or you can create a "slipstreamed" Windows XP install disk by merging your original install disk that does not have SP1 or SP2 with the downloadable network version of SP2. Instructions are on the net. Check out...
Airfoil:
Good article. Looks like my problem is that the only way to get the 200GB on a single drive/partition (since my Windows XP CD is the original version without LBA support), is to create/burn a "slipstreamed" new Windows XP installation CD (with SP2 morphed into it) or to use a third...
jack: already did that.
LTC: You may be onto something. I now see the other 63GB in Disk Management, but it shows up as unallocated space. So how do I get the 137GB and 63GB to play nice as one big happy drive???
I am no idiot (well maybe I am), but I can not figure out how to setup a new 200GB drive to be recognized as one large 200GB drive (no partitions).
My BIOS supports large drives (Asus P4C800-E Deluxe). I have formatted the drive using Windows XP (as my boot drive), updated to XP SP2 after...
I used Nero Express, which came bundled with the LG burner. The only thing I can figure is that my version of Nero Burning Rom 5.5 (or one of the many patches/upgrades I used to upgrade it to 5.5) was specifically for my prior burner. Thanks for the feedback.
The only DVD recorder Nero 5.5 finds is a virtual recorder. Other folks seem to have no problem with Nero 5.5 and this drive (I have the most up to date version of 5.5).
Any help/suggestions???
I have a Creative Audigy sound card, and an Asus P4800-E Deluxe mobo with Windows XP.
I do have a Line In setting under Playback Options, but not under Recording Options. So you are all saying that I should definitely have a Line In setting under recording options in addition to that Analog...
Texan:
I already recorded it on one of those little Olympus micro-recorders off the speakerphone of my phone. Sound quality is terrible, but I do have it. Thanks.
CQuinn:
Are you using the Windows mixer, or the Creative one? Windows and Audacity (third party app freeware).
Are...
Man...this is frustrating. I have built a dozen computers from scratch, and I can't figure out how to do this. I get absolutely no sound from the phone to the sound card. I've tried every setting, using Windows Sound Recorder and Audacity, and they only record blank clips.
I have a 3/32"...
