eCost has the SanDisc 128 meg Compact Flash cards for $44.00 with free shipping here, but they will tack on a 3.95 handling fee. Plus there is a $15 rebate throught 12/16. Not too bad a deal for those who picked up the Kodak cameras. Fixed it to refer to the correct type of memory... Sorry.

Major breakdown! I understand nothing and cry for help!

I will second this question. Memtest86 won't find all memory errors, but it will catch most of the common ones. I have had many computers with similar symptoms that were caused by bad memory.

Gentoo linux for me. Once I figured out the basics, I just felt to confined in Windows world so I deleted WinXP off my sytem completely. Going cold turkey was hard at first, but I've gotten the hang of it now, and the only place I use Windows is at work. I do like the look of OSX, and I have...

Are you trying to overclock at all? I have seen many boards do the same thing when the cpu is pushed too far. Try resetting your bios and see if it will boot. There may be a keyboard command for resetting, on my board I can hold the insert key while powering on and it will reset. You may also...

Math Question

Well, like I said I was tired, and that was what came to mind when I looked at the picture. Proving DEC is isosceles is easy, an easy way to get that last segment (DC) just didn't spring to mind. It looks to me like you could use angle and segment constructions to draw triangle DAE outside the...

Math Question

Well, here's my go at it: Given that angle BAE = angle ABE, it follows that triangle AEB is isoceles, and therefore segement AE = segement BE. Also, it is given that segement AD = BC, and by angle subtraction angle DAE = angle CBE. Using a SAS correspondence, we can find that triangle DAE =...

Bizarre problem, any help would be much appreciated.

Some motherboards allow you to clear the bios when booting by holding a key at power on. On my Abit VP6 I have to hold the insert key when I get a bit overzealous with my overclocking and need to reset the multipliers. I agree with the other posters that it does sound like your bios needs to be...

I have one with a single p3 750 that's been running at 1000 for about 6 months now. The board can be a little quirky, to say the least. It is very particular about which cards you put in which slot due to typical via irq sharing issues (at least with that chipset). I have found it kinda flacky...

Nothing wrong with DaveSimmon's answer, but if you'd like to do it in a more c++ oriented way you may consider string streams #include <sstream> . . istringstream iss(temp); //temp a string holding the substring you want iss >> a; //where a is any other type

TICK/PAUSE/TICK noise from HDD --- EDIT1 (Fixed!) / EDIT2 --- Doing it again ! EDIT3 --- Installed new Maxtor :)

It sounds like your drive is definately going bad. The WD diagnostics just remaps bad blocks to spare blocks on the drive. The bad blocks on your drive seem to be multiplying, this is not a good sign. Eventually, there will be no more spare blocks to map to, and WD Diag will tell you the problem...

PIO instead of DMA??

Try disabling the cdrom in your bios. Windows should still see it, and will most likely enable DMA. I had to do this on my old Asus P3B-F (Gawd I loved that board, may it rest in peace) Hope this helps.

XP hates me, pls help!

Just as somthing else to try, make sure you have proper cooling for that Athlon (I'm sure you do, just covering the basics) and are not overclocking. NT is more sensitive to CPU's running out of spec than Win 9x (at least in my expierence). I hope you get it figured out.
