 | What kind of errors are found, exactly? Also, where are they found? You can't really "make" an XP Home installation disc-- Why did they refuse to give you a disc, exactly? If your PC has a Windows XP Product key on a sticker, affixed to your system, you could use …  |
| | They're OK servers. You certainly won't be using one of these for an entire enterprise operation, but if you need a server with good service capability, and you're cost-conscious, then it's pretty good. Looking at the 1800's specs, it can be pretty beefy, though. Max 12GB RAM, up to 2 … |
| | Closing thread. The only reason why you're not banned right now is because your other threads weren't spam. If you post more links like these, I will ban your account.  |
| | Best thing to do is to take each individual part, and price it out using a site like [url]www.newegg.com[/url]. Total that up, and then figure you're only going to get about 60%-70% of what it's worth brand new, if that. Then, you can post it on a place like eBay. … |
| | Man. Not only is buying and selling gold in-game lame, but so is spamming a forum about doing it. I'm not going to delete the thread, though-- I think it's a great discussion. I just edited out the naughty bits, ie, the contact info/web links. |
 | Yeah, save them to a folder, like My Documents, and then burn from there. Outlook Express saves attachments in a temporary folder, and you can't really depend on the files to be in there, or be readable, even, when you'll need them. |
| | Re: os.popen What little I know, your Python code looks correct. But, why the "start" part of command.com? I know you can't really spawn new programs in DOS, but other than that it looks ok. It looks like you just use the write() method to provide input to whatever program, and that …  |
| | I believe that is called cheating. Further discussion of this type of behaviour will result in your username being banned here. As it is, this thread has been closed. |
| | Re: boot.ini Here's a reference, straight from Microsoft: [url]http://support.microsoft.com/?id=289022[/url] |
| | Why is everyone so interested in beta software, anyways? I have to deal with people going, "OMFG this software sucks-- it crashes, it's buggy!" and it's BETA software. Wouldn't you rather sit tight, wait for the finished product to come out, and then make your decisions? I've beta tested some … |
| | Why not just download a tool like [b]wget[/b], or similar, that's designed to automate recursive FTP mirroring? You might want to check if there's something suitable in this list: [url]http://www.usinglinux.org/ftp/[/url] |
| | That can definitely happen. Does moving the screen make any difference? Chances are, the screen has gone bad in some fashion or another. You might want to contact your manufacturer for warranty service, or a spare. If your system is older, you might have to hit up eBay for a … |
| | I like Dells. I'm sorry, and I've discussed this before. Why is it when [b]you[/b] had the choice to buy additional warranty service, and you chose not to, all of a sudden you're up in arms because the product went bad, and even though you had a chance, [b]you[/b] didn't … |
| | Have you scanned for spyware on this system? That's pretty funky. Are you running any firewalls, or download accelerators? |
| | you want [b]mask[/b] [b]mask=000[/b] will cause the drives to be readable/writable to all users. The drives should already be mounting by default, because the "defaults" section in /etc/fstab includes that as a default. |
| | Why not just find some different templates to use? I'm sure a good CSS tutorial will provide a really spiffy looking page. And, you can do that type of stuff in a simple text editor. |
| | Yeah, even if you could, it's not a very good idea to do so. Additionally, MIcrosoft has never allowed a downgrade, like you can't use an "Upgrade" Windows 98 disc to install 98 onto a machine running Windows 2000. |
| | What exactly is the parser error you're getting? Please post as many error messages as possible, but be sure to strip out business-specific information. I'm certain someone here can help you out, given more information. |
| | Nope. It cannot. I just tried it-- I have access to both localized versions. I installed the Chinese version, and used the English one. It does not because Microsoft considers those two seperate products, even though only the languages are different. |
| | What does the Blue screen say, exactly? Usually those things have error codes on them. |
| | Re: back up cd's You could try a place like [url=http://drivesavers.com/]DriveSavers[/url]. They're pricey, but if you need the data that badly, it's worth it. Other than that, you're probably out of luck. It pays to verify the data after it's been burnt, even if it takes a little longer. I even verified one today, … |
| | I doubt hitting Delete did anything for you. But, they did do something valid. Holding the power button in for 10-12 seconds is called clearing the "flea power". Even when in an off state, systems still have power going through them. By clearing the flea power, you remove that energy. … |
| | Re: I Have No Clue Check this out: [url]http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=ntoskrnl&btnG=Search[/url] Rule #1: Always start with a Google search. Rule #2: Always post the EXACT error message you're getting. Otherwise, we can't provide accurate assistance. |
| | Re: 6800 OC 128mb It might not be compatible with your motherboard. Despite what they say, not all AGP cards work with all motherboards. You might want to consider upgrading your BIOS. If all else fails, you can sell that card (it's a decent card, truth be told), and get the same version of … |
| | Hi there, You get what you pay for. Don't pirate. Windows shouldn't cost 75 cents. You should legally consider reformatting and installing the original OS that came with the system. Not only is piracy illegal, but it's against forum policy to assist with a pirated OS. Further, who knows where … |
| | Cool. Great Work! Let's make this thread sticky! |
 | Re: Delete thread [QUOTE=dojo]Well after having some members who wanted to erase their traces from the forums I don't allow thread removal either. and on the most "serious" forum I allod edit just in 15 minutes time after the post was made. Makes life as an admin easier. I think Dani had some … |
| | I'm going to have to agree with Jim on this one. You really should look into setting up [b]sudo[/b] for something like this. If you know the user that's going to run it, and you know the username ahead of time, then you can set up the appropriate permissions in … |
| | Sorry. We don't do your homework for you here on this forum. Please post some code, and we'll help troubleshoot it. We will not write your code for you. |
| | One thing I noticed, too, was that you are using = instead of == . = can assign values to a variable, whereas == checks for equality. That might have something to do with it, too... |
| | Let's not let this get off-topic. I'm going to close this thread before it gets too out of hand. Some advice: Please keep ALL discussion on a single topic in one thread, and please don't spam the forum with all of your homework assignments. |
| | Truth be told, I submit that he/she'd be bored period with the Java class, simply because they probably can glean how to do things, if they have picked up PHP or Javascript. PHP isn't just a web programming language, you know. If I were you, I'd stick with what you're …  |
| | Are you using a crossover cable, or a straight through? Some systems can't use a straight cable hooked to another PC. |
 | That's by design. You should [b]never[/b] log in remotely as root directly. If your password were the slightest bit insecure, you could be open to a brute-force password attack, and your whole system can be compromised. As an alternative, add your user to the [b]wheel[/b] group. That allows you to … |
| | I'd like to weigh in on this, if I could. Point blank-- a forum is by no means the place to lay out step-by-step how to set up a network. Even your setup is not "basic" if you're looking to do things like connect the machines to the Internet-- there … |
| | I've personally amassed a decent collection of older Macs. I love these little boxes-- I can still make them do all kinds of things, as old as they are! I'm curious if there's anyone else here that loves the older Macs, or maybe just still uses them. Here is my … |
| | Re: Password problem Try using it once more, and then go back and change your password via the Control Panel. You'll have to make a new password reset disk, but I'd like to see what happens if you try that. |
| | What is the exact error message that you're getting when you attempt to connect to your scanner? |
| | You'll probably want to pick up a data recovery tool. One that I use is called "R Studio". I once formatted a drive unintentionally, and managed to use this tool to recover every bit of my data. Either that, or you could utilize a company like [url=http://www.drivesavers.com/]DriveSavers[/url] to get your … |
| | You should be fine with that, using the defaults. You can't really upgrade your processor on that machine, so you are really going to be stuck with the experience you get, good or bad. But, it shouldn't be too bad. |
 | It all depends. First off, Wifi on these things are WAY overblown. You're not going to get any really productive web work done on them. The question to ask is, "Does it have Bluetooth"? I don't have a phone/PDA, but I use Bluetooth CONSTANTLY to transfer files back and forth, … |
| | Closing this thread. DO NOT post anything else like this. If I find it, I'll ban you. This type of stuff is ignorant. Secondly, it shouldn't work on a properly secured network. The "tip" you put here is a really easy way of getting yourself suspended, or worse, expelled. |
| | Re: Hijack Log... You've got Virtumonde. Check out the instructions provided in this thread: [url]http://forum.tweakxp.com/forum/Topic190082-29-1.aspx[/url] If that doesn't help, someone else here might be able to help you out. Other than that, you could end up reinstalling Windows. |
| | You might have knocked something off of your board, or even knocked something like the RAM or a PCI card loose. Make sure all the cards are seated properly in the system. If all else fails, try to contact eMachines, because those POST beeps mean something, and they have the … |
| | In so many words, you'll have to boot to a Linux recovery CD. Most of the time, the first disc of a multi disc set is bootable, and can do this. Check out this link: [url]http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/11/how-to-repair-corrupt-mbr-and-boot.html[/url] |
| | what OS is this? XP? You could always try to check out the Audio Properties control panel. Make sure that the primary audio output device is set to use the Realtek chipset. I've seen situations where, for no reason at all, the device gets changed to [i](None)[/i] or something similar, … |
| | Have you installed a window manager at all? You probably need to install one. Just like you went into the x11 directory, cd into the /usr/ports/x11-wm directory, and build a window manager there. If you're using [b]startx[/b], make a file called [b].xinitrc[/b] in your home directory. At the very least, … |
| | How big of a virtual disk did you allocate for your Red Hat installation? |
| | [QUOTE=Lightninghawk]You have to get an interview to get the job. I don't know about a lot of areas. But around here. If you don't have atleast one certification you don't get the interview.[/QUOTE] Trust me. Christian's advice sticks more in my area than anything. The market's so slim in our … |
| | Why can't you boot to the CD-R drive on the IDE channel? |
The End.
