I'd open the drive case but not the drive. That is, I always try these in a new case on something I keep in my PC Medic Kit. It's this thing: http://www.amazon.com/SANOXY®-Adapter-Converter-Optical-External/dp/B001OORMVQ/

This looks like a job for (fanfare music) VirtualRouter. Since hijacking occurs here's the link. https://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/ Since you want to share your WiFi connection, this alone may do fine without adding more gear.

This looks to not handle the new line. This was discussed before at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20108334/traverse-file-line-by-line-using-fscanf

altjen, why didn't you start with https://www.google.com/search?q=youtube+video+downloader+in+vb as I did that and found source code and more. I can't guess why you would do this as YT downloaders are plentiful. That is, wouldn't you want to hone your skills in a new area rather than yet another YT downloader?

Why not use what you know? Since browsers can use local files with .html you could use what you know today. As to the clicker, I'm going to share I own a Satechi ST-BTRM1 which you could use or something else then your code does the usual on event to …

My first thought is GnuPlot. But as to library? Such may depend on your choice of C. https://www.google.com/#q=visual+studio+gnuplot seems to show folk using it in Visual Studio.

I think this is a simple no. For example if I compile my C# code the exe is not "machine code" entirely. The .net clr is fired up to run the C# byte code. That's not a bad thing. But since the clr is not an OS the answer is …

I remember something on this. There was something called Cosmos so I dug it up for you. http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/99928/Develop-Your-Own-Operating-System-in-C-or-VB-NET I still like the windshield wiper comment.

There is an assignment like that in CompSci 2nd year courses. They give you about 1/2 the semester to complete such which tells you the amount of work you would need to put into such a thing. But since this is not for school or credit, why not search around …

The clue is in the prior line. Dim ImageData() as Byte Forget ReDim and declare the array of sufficent size.

Before you code, use a terminal app and issue commands to make sure your strings and responses match your code. You may have to put a serial port sniffer (I use this old RS232 cable to another PC or two to watch the data) to see what's up. I don't …

Maybe you need to know what you are doing could be called. Here's a google using what I think you are looking for. https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=1d+nesting+algorithm As you can see this leads you to the old "bin packing problem" and now you have a lot of prior discussions you can check over. …

I gave this post time to age. Think over your question as if you knew nothing of your project. I can't tell if this is on the tablet, or if you want to add a signature box to your web app or well, you get the idea. I did check …

Never found this. But there is a TWO STEP procedure that many used. 1. VMWare's converter. 2. A VMWare to VirtualBox converter. Both noted at https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=61

How long do you have? Or how long have you been around? The X system did that, what about 2 decades ago. Linux in many forms uses it and as to the second part of the question, you need to consider all Gigabit LAN to hit your speed marks. That …

Code looks too light to me. It seems to be that old first try type effort. Anyhow, be sure to try this with a terminal program first. That said, we implemented this long ago and no, I can't share the code as it belongs to the company but I will …

I would be guessing what you are trying to do with the 127.0.0.1 but something I read recently had me point these to 0.0.0.0 instead. The article at http://www.howtogeek.com/225487/what-is-the-difference-between-127.0.0.1-and-0.0.0.0/ had me change my hosts file to point to 0.0.0.0 when I don't want it to resolve and more. 127.0.0.1 seems …

Hey, I like that story. Let's hope you fix that link.

Cheat. Shell out and try wmic logicaldisk where Caption="C:" get caption, VolumeName, VolumeSerialNumber, Size, FileSystem, FreeSpace That's the command line and you could call wmic from your app and redirect it to some file you read later. Just tried it. Microsoft Windows [Version 6.3.9600] (c) 2013 Microsoft Corporation. All rights …

While one may not know what you own (no make, model, etc.) Try this generic reset I find to help at times (laptop, desktop and my Roomba.) 1. Power down. 2. Remove battery (laptop, Roomba, etc.) 3. Remove power and USB cables. Hey, firewire too along with any external cables. …

Did you post this to many places? https://www.google.com/search?q=your+task+is+to+calculate+amount+of+time+taken+before+the+robot+falls+either+ditch+if+at+all+it+falls+in+a+ditch&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 Please share where you got your best answer.

I think this alone dashes your hope of using Microsoft's free HyperV. "Hyper-V 2012 can only be managed by Windows 8, Windows Server 2012 or their successors." I was going to note Proxmux but then I read http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1820817 which lead me back to VMWare. https://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere-hypervisor You have an abitious goal …

I rarely defrag, and in fact have not in 2014 or 2015. Why? Read: http://www.complete-concrete-concise.com/blog/why-you-dont-need-to-defragment-your-hard-drive Since no Windows OS was noted I can't guess if you can use any of the titles listed in the article.

To me this is odd. My PC came with Windows and with Windows 10 being a free update, well what fees? If it's Visual Studio there is Visual Studio Express which has no fees. But to your question, https://www.google.com/#q=linux+android+studio seems to answer that. I use Android Studio and it's about …

Ask this. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt204009.aspx and other links seems to allude that the community version (aka free?) is SOL on SQL. Ask that! Lucky me, the office gets Pro for our work. They all seem to run the same speed.

Sounds like you didn't deploy the app. "copy full project" doesn't sound correct here but which Visual Studio? Example deployments at https://www.google.com/#q=how+to+deploy+a+vb.net+2012+project

It's a shame folk don't look into this before formatting. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Import_from_Outlook_Express notes how to get to Thunderbird and that is cross platform and a lot safer to keep backups. Of course you could install Outlook Express (it came with some OSes) and bring it back in then off to Thunderbird …

Can be true when we don't install a printer driver and set it as the default. Oddity or weird fact.

Given the age, story it sure sounds like a failed HDD. Since the other OSes run from CD and USB, that adds to the story the old HDD may be gone. If you can supply the make and model of the HDD maybe we can find a CD/USB based HDD …

Why not keep printing in your app? As to other apps, https://www.google.com/#q=command+line+pdf+append finds the usual titles.

A long time ago, this happened to me. I'll share but make no claim this is it. What was it? The Windows machine had no default printer selected or printer driver installed. As such, the fonts were not showing up in our app.

So Kilometres or Kilometre (from data.cs)? Which is it?

Is that still an assignment in class today? https://www.google.com/search?q=Write+a+Java%28TM%29+application+using+NetBeans%28TM%29+Integrated+Development+Environment+%28IDE%29+that+calculates+the+total+annual+compensation+of+a+salesperson&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 It appears that someone is recycling assignments. My bet is you'll get the same answers folk gave last time.

Double or float was never reccomended for currency calculations. More at link. http://www.javapractices.com/topic/TopicAction.do?Id=13

Small world. A few years back I had that error. I read http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20033231/with-android-studio-no-jvm-found-java-home-has-been-set and one of the prior answers worked. Let me share that installing Java has got a whole lot easier now there is ninite.com. If I'm setting up the first time I uninstall all older Java's then get …

Could be wrong directoin but a long time ago in HTML5 I implemented speed control. It's done with a little javascript and there are numorous examples if I google: How to change the playing speed of videos in HTML5?

I have not experienced that one but if I did I might try the reset noted at https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/vstudio/en-US/abcb54bb-5490-48ab-a961-f2c7f64331a3/visual-studio-startup-error-clr20r3 Other causes appear to be XP, Fonts, and region/language settings.

Just a thought. Use the usual window.onbeforeunload = function(){ your code to save goes here; }

Think about it. ++a can't be added to something else until the ++ step is completed. So to finish this math my bet is the compiler completed the increments first to varible a and since it's only a pointer to a, a gets incremented twice before the final a + …

Never found a merge, but there is an APPEND command. Documented at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa977271%28v=vs.71%29.aspx

I'm going with no. Outlook with Exchange server didn't store the contacts locally so you'll need to restore the server first. Also, who runs servers with no backup? Try not to grill your IT too badly. Let them get it back first and then go over the disaster plans. Now …

There are a few ways. Depending on the exact effect you want. My thought is the TextChanged event ( http://www.dotnetperls.com/textbox-vbnet ) would run a small Me.Text = 'code that strips the text to 12 lines. That allows them to edit the first 12 lines.

Please share the code as it is. Could be a simple thing.

Why not solve it by any means? It's a problem to be solved, not homework, right?

Sadly this is usually the end for tablets. Since it's dead you can watch/find many of the Samsung Tablet disassembly videos and try one thing. Unplug the battery for a minute, plug it back and and hope.

Back to the person who wrote this spec. They didn't reveal how many they needed in a day so with 0 to 999 possible values, not only is there that "unique" spec but the missing spec on how to handle it running out of numbers. Frankly the random bit could …

Think it over. There are web forms all around you. You can have them fill that out and on your web server do the form edit/filling and create a file as you see fit. However it almost always begs the issue of site security. But that's another topic. Do the …

I am of 2 minds on laptop battery replacements. 1. If it's for work or the fretful/fearful you get it from Dell. Done. 2. If you are not placing it in places that are made like a tinder box and know it's slightly ever so slightly risky you get one …

Container as in a box or bucket you put stuff into. I've taken to just making an .ISO of the full up DVD since with VLC Player it works just like the original DVD with all tracks and was not recompressed. For some that's not acceptable since they want smaller …

Try a continuity test without the power adapter. Do the circuit trace ring out from/to the power jack pins? If not, the jack may have broke.
