    Pick me a new hardrive or hardrives

    I would do a memory test first. I've had 2 memory simms die in the past couple of years. Look for a free test utility, or download the free "Ultimate Boot CD" which has many different diagnostics and repair utilities on it. If a memory unit is bad, you may be able to get a free replacement...

    Warm: Netflix $15.99 a month

    I'm in Renton, Washington, and am having good service with the Blockbuster trial. Into my second of four weeks, I have already received 7 DVDs. One, "Troy", was unwatchable -- looked like a dog or a movie critic had chewed it. BB offfered to send a replacement immediately, but I decided to move...

    firewire adaptor question for ipod

    I have one, or will have one. A very expensive one. Being shipped by Outpost. Just keeping this post updated to help others so they won't have to spend $14 to get a $5 (or $3) adapter. CompUSA has them online for $5 plus $5 shipping, but mail-order only, and not in stock. Edit...

    firewire adaptor question for ipod

    Yes, that is the little beastie. I gave up on eBay after a couple of fiascos there. The adapter wasn't included in the 4G model I purchased. Was also described as an "optional" accessory in the manual. Wonder why Apple stopped including it? PS to metalmania : OK, this is $ 3 shipped, but...

    firewire adaptor question for ipod

    You sound like one of sales people I talked to in the stores. Never listen. Didn't need a 4 to 6 cable. Needed a 4-6 adapter. And, if you know where to get a 4-pin male to 6-pin female adapter for $3 shipped, please post the link for others to use. I purchased it for $14 shipped at...

    firewire adaptor question for ipod

    yeah, this is an older thread, but I found this searching and thought I could add something for others who stumble upon this thread: gave my daughter an ipod for Christmas. The included firewire cable connects to 6-pin port on computer, but her HP laptop has the 4-pin plugin. Made the round...

    Meritline - Black Leather Briefcase - $10

    Just received mine today. I checked and they are still available. And the coupon is still good (it's even shown on the page with the item). Sitting empty, it is only about 3" thick. If you are looking for a low cost but nice case, I highly recommend it. Meritline also has other cases available...

    ATI 9700 Pro/Successor?

    My son asked for a 9600xt card for christmas. Checking here, I see the 9700 Pro was about the same price, but better performance. But I can't find the 9700 Pro anywhere. Has it been discontinued or just out of stock. Or maybe ATI has a newer card with similar/better performance in same price...

    Canon i960 Photo Printer $136.27 shipped

    Dang! I've been using Epson papers for about 9 months with my Canon S9000. I have several 4x6 on the refrigerator. They have all faded noticeably over that time. I also have a digital print from Costco in the same location. It's a true photographic paper, etc. and has no noticeable fading. The...

    Are HP and Compaq notebooks the same inside?

    Looking at buying a notebook. For my needs and my wallet the HP/Compaq lines look OK. An equivalent Compaq runs about $100 less than the HP variant. The cases look identical except for color. Are the machines identical inside?

    Checking back in on a feature lost from the upgrade . . .

    Doubt that. Have you done a survey to see which new feature users actually want? I used to come here daily, but since the upgrade only come back to see if the sort feature has been fixed (yes, FIXED; I consider the current state broken as compared to the pre-upgrade software). No way I want to...

    Self Defense Weapons for a girl?

    Don't overlook self-defense classes. She can learn a lot even in a one day class, and it's fun. Just something about punching and kicking a guy in a padded suit to lighten your day! ;) Check with local Women's Shelters, Parks Depts, Gun Shops, etc. Krav Maga (the Israeli techniques) would be a...

    Firewalls INSIDE a LAN?

    Win 3.1 gone, can't install Win 95,98

    FWIW, my daughter tried that and it didn't work. Maybe I should repeat that. I've been hitting Google all afternoon and have found some tricks that may help with HER *&!$ game. If I'd known what a pain this was, I would never have started! Some games are better off dead. But I did find a link...

    Win 3.1 gone, can't install Win 95,98

    Thanks for the DOSbox pointer. That should take care of KQ problems after I reinstall WinXP. I need more than a DOS-boot disk to install my Win95 disk. Win 95 is an upgrade to Win 3.1, not DOS, so the Win95 install asks to see the Win 3.1 disks --- which it can't read!!! Floppies don't last...

    Win 3.1 gone, can't install Win 95,98

    Help! I'm up the proverbial creek. Quite a while ago, all my home systems were upgraded to Win XP. Yesterday, my daughter wanted to run an older game ('King's Quest') that ran OK on Win 95, but won't run on Win XP. I said 'No problem', I'll make your system dual-boot 95 and XP. Big Problem...

    Simple Network gone down, need help plz!

    With a router, any computer can get to the internet without the other computer being on. Lets you take down your first computer for maintenance without disrupting the second computer's net access. Also, for me at least, connection sharing with Win98/WinME was not reliable;I've moved to XP but...

    Making a dorm room wireless?

    My daughter is going to WSU (Washington State) next year. The dorm rooms all have wired net connections. She has a laptop and I thought it would be nice to hook up a wireless router to make the room wireless, with MAC filtering, etc to keep others off and with DHCP turned off so it would be...

    Simple Network gone down, need help plz!

    Are you using something like ICS to share an internet connection from the 'front' computer? If so, I don't know what your problem is, but I do know that connection sharing used to drive me crazy before I bought a router. Even with just 2 computers, I think a router is worthwhile. You should be...

    Fun things to do with a spare wireless net?

    This is similar to another post made today by someone else. I now have a spare wireless-b router and a spare computer. I was thinking of setting up an open LAN in my neighborhood. Maybe half a dozen houses would be in range. I know right now I can see my wireless and another LAN on air. Both...

    print server

    Yes, you need a print server. I followed your NewEgg link to the Edimax 901, provides a parallel port, bi-directional. At $40 shipped, looks like a good price, but I've heard some other parallel port switches have compatibility problems with some printers. I'd feel safer with a USB port, but...

    12 Pack AA NiMH 2000mAh Batteries and a Super Fast Charger, $22.99

    Hmm. I find it hard to believe that it can fully charge a drained battery in 15 minutes. Maybe recharge a battery that is only slightly drained in 15 minutes. I think trying to charge a battery that quickly would overheat it severely. Of course, I could be wrong... Back to the deal: Sounds...
