Could it be that the fan's connections are at fault--perhaps a loose or disconnected wire is being sensed by the mobo and therefore the fan option is greyed out. Look inside the tower and check all connections. It might also be worth trying the fan in another computer just to …

Dear Queen Dani, As a non-US registered visitor of DaniWeb, I feel a bit offended by your desire to prefer your US audience to the rest of the world. True, you are located in the US, but there are computer mavens all around the world who contribute greatly to all …

Welcome Chris--I wonder how many active members found their way to Daniweb "by accident" but fell in love with it and stayed. If you're for real, than you'll stick around and find this site a gold mine. BTW, dealing with JBENNET, you're in with the cream of the crop. Stick …

Welcome Rahul! Allow me to add to your collection of "hellos" by giving you שלום (Shalom) in Hebrew. If you learn that one, you also know how to say "good-bye" in Hebrew, because we use the same word for both. The original meaning of the word is "Peace"--so we greet …

If you want to get your mom on your side, point out that, while these LEDs use a minimum of electricity, (if you leave your computer running during the night) they can provide enough nightime light to be able to move around without having to turn on the big lights …

If your customers are looking you up, how about asking them what their uppper limit is. If you feel that you want to get them to come back again, when the job is done, ask them to pay 10-20% less than what they figured as the maximum. They should be …

Cleaning up my computer from some virus "invasions" seems to have messed up my operating copy of Microsoft Office Outlook.

To get into safe mode, reboot and while the computer is going through the first screens (before windows starts activating), keep pressing F8. that should open up a screen with several options for starting--one of them is "safe mode". Tip. when shutting off, unplug the computer from the power supply …

I finally made the plunge--I didn't want to mess up anything on my present computer so I bought a new computer (Asus P5GC-MX/1333 mother board) with a Hitachi 160 GB HD and an Optiarc DVD. I've tried to install Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04-- both with no success. I keep getting …

For months now I've been plagued with the erratic shutdown of my computer and the appearance of the "blue screen of death". A suggestion from Microsoft recommending the checking of hardware put me on to checking my memory cards (2 of 256 mb and one of 512 mb). I did …

How about switching the floppy disc DRIVES between the two computers. If you have trouble reading the floppies on the machine that until now has been reading them, you'll know that the problem is with the drive and not the MB. If you still encounter problems on the same machine …

One of the nicest things I have enjoyed about Daniweb is the pleasant way in which people write to each other. I have seen, and abandoned, other sites where those who wrote thought that it's "cute" to express themselves with a foul pen. In my humble opinion, those who can't …

As a non-professional, I would like to say that I found your site interesting and simple to use. However, the repetitiveness of the pages after selecting a link, makes it a bit boring. I realize that it means an awful lot more work, but putting more variety on the different …

Now that I've learned from you what the star means, can you tell me what the green boxes of "reputation" mean--how do you accumulate them. If its' by having someone add to your reputation, there are a lot of people here who deserve a lot of kudos...

Happy birthday--- Remember that you'll feel different only if you act differently. Make it good and you'll feel great.

I too have been plagued lately by random appearances of the BSOD. My technician tested my DDL memory ( 2 units of 256 rm) and they turned out to be faulty. They were replaced and I even added another unit with 516 mg (so now I have 1 gb of …
