    Stuck

    I'm trying to locate a cloning software - yes cloning, not imaging software - that will allow me to clone a disk on an ancient computer. The computer is now 12 years old and runs Windows 2000 with service pack 2. I can find a good cloning software for this computer if it had service pack 4, but...

    Power Strip/Surge Protector Turns Off By Itself

    Ken g6, No, its a Tripp Lite with 8 sockets. Its probably a good nine or ten years old at this point. At first, since I'd never had this problem before, I thought my cat had gotten into the area under the desk and stepped on the switch, but I've since made the area inaccessible to her so I know...

    Power Strip/Surge Protector Turns Off By Itself

    I'm running a very old computer that is powered from the wall socket through a very old power strip/surge protector. Twice during the last week it has mysteriously turned itself off and, in turn, the computer also. Happily, all I have to do to get things up and running is to turn the red switch...

    SSD vs SAS

    How do the new Solid State drives stack up vs the SAS technology. Would solid state drives be apt to outperform a box using an SAS adoptor plus 15,000 rpm scsi drives?

    Boot, Schmoot

    Something of an unusual problem that I suspect belongs in this grouping. I'm really out of ideas on this one and can really use some help. Here's the background: For many years, I've used System Commander 2000, a DOS based boot manager, on all of my systems. To isolate it entirely from the...

    Dell, Schmell

    Many thanks to the three of you for your ideas. Just to update, I'm told the Dell tech came today, installed the promised replacement drive, and at my request rejumpered and attached the bad drive to the systemboard as primary slave. The failed, warranteed drive was a Maxtor, the new one is...

    Dell, Schmell

    A friend of mine, an inexperienced computer user with a ten month old Dell, has run into some major problems. Attempting to restart his machine at one point last night, he couldn't reach his hard drive, getting a blue screen with an error message about it not starting-up in order to prevent...

    Some Suggestions And Recommendations, Please

    At the time Microsoft introduced Windows XP together with its onerous licensing and authentification requirements, I made a decision not further to "upgrade" the Windows 2000 Pro partitions that run on this network and to intensify a planned migration to Linux. Today, my main personal OS is...

    I Know, I know ...

    First, permit me to express my appreciation to those of you that have taken the time to reply to my inquiry and to try to be helpful. This forum guided me right a few months ago regarding a $30 ATI Radeon card I bought at one of the Microcenter outlets to replace a clearly exhausted Nvidia Riva...

    I Know, I know ...

    ... I should never recommend that someone purchase a prebuilt computer but, given the circumstances, just $600 to spend and not very much more, I suggested that someone consider a currently available Dell with P4 2.8 Ghz CPU, 256 MB DDR 400, 80 GB HDD, CD-RW Drive, 17" Monitor, XP Pro and a few...

    Memory, Schmemory

    Today, surfing though a couple of hardware sites I haven't visited in about a year, I saw an ad for PC1066 RDRAM at very reasonable prices. I built this computer using an Intel 850EMV2 board in May of 2002, right at the time Intel first made 533FSB available. I bought a P4 2.26Ghz processor and...

    Aperature, Schmapature

    Many thanks for the very well informed comments above. I've elected to leave the system BIOS aperture setting at 64 MB. I'd come to the forum originally as a kind of final step to the upgrading of an aging Intel AL440LX, PII system which I'm now putting in place as a Linux webserver. About a...

    Gentoo installation help

    Well, if I'm right about adding the ramdisk entry to the kernel line in grub.conf you should be up and running very quickly. Reboot and as soon as the grub splashscreen appears, hit "e". You'll see a couple of lines there that you can edit on the spot. We're looking to edit the kernel line. To...

    I just bought a PowerSpec Certified ATI Radeon 7000 AGP video adapter for an older machine of mine and not without lots of fine help from people on this forum, so thanks. I may not be making any sense at all to those in the know here, but the card's specifications indicate a 256-bit processor...

    Does It Matter?

    I've decided to go with a ATI Radeon 7000 32MB for an older P2 machine I've upgraded to the limit. I've searched extensively for one and, it being a discontinued item, I've found one very hard to locate. I'd really rather not consider the Saphire, Gigabyte and Power Color facsimiles of this card...

    Help With New Card For Aging Machine

    I have an aging machine here which I upgraded to the limits of the motherboard about a year or so ago. It's an Intel AL440LX board formerly with a PII 233 Mhz processor, now with a PII 333 Mhz. I added a Promise IDE controller to up the transfer speeds, replaced the original HDD with a WD 40 GB...

    Asus P4S13G Dead?

    Comrades, So the much hyped Asus P4S13G board with the SiS R659R chipset is dead? Despite the promises of a review made here and the SiS announcement in November, nothing has happened. It is almost like the pictures of Zinoviev and comrade Stalin together that we had to modify after Zinoview's...

    Asus P4S13G SIS R658 Rambus Board thoughts?

    cm123, Thanks for the url. I'd really be entertained if this new SIS chipset outperformed the Canterwood the way its advertised. I'd just purchased an 850EMV2 last year when Intel made it absolutely clear that Rambus was, for them, a thing of the past. They refused to offer official support for...

    Asus P4S13G SIS R658 Rambus Board thoughts?

    I've been watching these developments for about 15 months now and am happy to see things at the starting gate. I'm particularly happy to read AndyHui's remarks above. I think the Asus P4S13G is slated for Christmas time availability is it not? Lavrenti Beria

    Windows 2000 Pro Question

    Hi Canterwood! You say: "I wouldn't recommend using a system without a Service Pack, especially if its going onto the internet, its just not worth the risk. Most (if not all) of the absolute critical patches for Windows 2000 can be applied to a system running just SP2, so you can install the...

    Windows 2000 Pro Question

    EeyoreX, You say: "I don't consider it "phoning home". It's a legitamate way for Microsoft (and many other companies ) to protect their work (or at least try). Companies have used activation before Microsoft, MS was simply the first giant to do so. This isn't even a minor convenience. And even...

    Windows 2000 Pro Question

    Hi EeyoreX, So you like phoning home? :) Your comment about the danger involved with no SPs is interesting, although given its more than active history of security troubles one has to wonder whether having Windows 2000 Pro with SPs 1 & 2 is really much better than having it au naturel. Yes...

    Windows 2000 Pro Question

    Hi Fredtam, Keep in mind now, Fredtam, that it's just little old me that doesn't want XP, not Jesus Christ. Lavrenti's feelings about Microsoft and it's way of doing things are just that, his personal feelings, and, although shared by lots and lots of others, I can assure you they are not in...

    Windows 2000 Pro Question

    When I've installed Windows 2000 Pro in the past, it went on well and was quite fast up until I installed SP2, at which point the performance hit was noticable. Adding SP3 literally destroyed its performance so I reinstalled and have been comfortable with the performance/security tradeoff with...

    Comrades, Here's one for you; I'm over my head with it. I just built a new machine to use as a storage and download box for my network. I got a very good deal on a retail boxed Intel D815EEA2U board and a retail PIII 1.2 GB Tualatin processor (total $179) from a reputable distributor so went...

    Router/Power Off Question

    Fuzznuts, No, I'm not putting the computer into standby. I've done some research on this question since I posted last and have been able to determine that somehow Microsoft OSs keep power running to the PCI bus and thereby to the network card after shutdown where the Linux kernel does not...

    Router/Power Off Question

    Fuzznuts, Thanks for the prompt reply. The ethernet card is a 3COM 3C905C-TX and, yes, it has Wake On LAN. I note that my BIOS has this feature disabled, it states "Stay-Off" in the appropriate category. Would the ethernet card be able to stay on even though the BIOS has Wake On LAN disabled...

    Samsung RDRAM & 8IXHP

    Comrade ZenMonkey, Greetings from the peace-loving people of the socialist motherland. You will definitely be better off using the two 256s + continuity modules than four 128s. The counter-revolutionary swine that have been spreading the rumor that you can do otherwise have confessed their...
