Power. Most likely the power isn't enough on the long cable. I use a Y cable to get around this.
The Y cable taps two USB ports for power. It's a common cable, found on Newegg and Amazon for example.

Two thoughts.

1. Did you EVER use Select * ?
2. What is max_connections in my.cnf?

I recall doing this with Dell models. To see if it works on the Gateway I think you'll just have to try it. Dell's designs were such that you changed the entire top lid (that part with the LCD) and you could get a higher or lower resolution. Just the lid component, no CPU change.

@Hammad, supply this in English too. Did you write "Tell your brother in Hindi only. What are you trying to ask..It did not understand."?

Hi, I'm an old hand at old school RS232 links. The most common reason for jibberish is the terminal speed doesn't match what the sender is using.

Example: If the sender is sending 19200 Baud, 8 bits and your terminal app is set to 9600, you get jibber. Not an encoding issue at all.

@James, I noted what I would try but I have to repeat something. I find that those PCIe boards may not show up until the motherboard chipset drivers are installed first. You didn't comment how you accomplished this. What I'm seeing are new and old techs installing Windows and excuse my French, HOPE the drivers for this area are automagically picked out and installed by Windows. In my experience, W10 is better but still fails too often in driver finding. Now I have to temper my view on this since folk only bring me the failures.

That aside, this should be nothing more than a salvage expedition. That is, getting the contents off the Zip drives. Even if this means pulling some old desktop back into operation for the last hurrah.

The last time I saw this was using the USB version of this drive. Did you try some USB to IDE adapter?

About that IDE PCIe board. You have to get the motherboard drivers first for that board to show and then the drivers for that PCIe IDE board. But AFAIK, the only OS this worked was in Linux. Windows? Find the old USB drive.

I gave away mine after I had moved everything off Zip discs. For your last hurrah why not any old IDE PC? Or Linux?

Simple nope. A zip file could contain anything so there's no direct translator from zip to swf.

@ddanbe. Շատ վատ translates to "very bad." I found this humorous in light of what you wrote earlier. The non-Armenian text was equally funny.

That aside, last month I updated a VB6 app that is on long term support for our office. I refuse to write anything new in VB6 (heresy to some?) but since the client pays well (some would say too well) we keep a pair of XP laptops in storage just for when we need to change what they ask for. Money talks.

@BIM, that's why you read the finds with MariaDB. Such as

Connecting to a Mariadb database with visual basic express 2010

If there is indeed no tutorials (which we know isn't true) then you get on the MariaDB Forum and create that tutorial.

HOWEVER:

MariaDB is a community-developed fork of the MySQL relational database management system

So MySQL tutorials apply.

Seems it's time for tutorials. I found them with https://www.google.com/search?q=MariaDB+to+2012+VB.net

Welcome Jeofrey,

Please read https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question

Avoid oddly formatting your discussions as they make it harder to read. Supply the source code and point out what failed.

You also need to explain what you mean by timed out. Don't make everyone guess.

I'm going to write "never do this." Why?

For your autocomplete to work, you would have to send over the list of email addresses to the user and that's a problem. Your site would them LEAK USER EMAIL ADDRESSES.

That won't be a good thing. For this round, let the browser do its thing on autocomplete.

In Android programmer speak this is called "Start a new activity." Tutorial follows.
https://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html

A google found solutions in a snap like http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,27805.msg172325.html?PHPSESSID=l1kbafhmdhbt050vg4lidd71q1#msg172325

DO NOT USE THIS FOR A HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT AS THE INSTRUCTOR COULD GOOGLE IT TOO.

I admit I won't answer this directly but let's figure out first what happens with and without the forward slash. I'll defer to
https://www.thoughtco.com/urls-ending-with-slash-3466509

OK, that's a good clue how you might handle this. Since no slash forces a redirect, that's my clue to see how Django redirects. For that you have to scour your Django docs. Like this one: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/contrib/redirects/
Read until it sinks in. To me that's where your magic has to happen.

Sort of a well done app area. https://www.google.com/search?q=android+pc+remote+control+app

You need about a year to create such a thing as not only would you learn about Android but decide how to give the remote control over bluetooth, LAN or other means.

They have rules about this, plus you have spend money there. All explained why it doesn't work at https://forum.fiverr.com/t/username-not-found-in-search/125489/14

Besides, if it was that simple, your spammers could collect names and spam. Looks like they did it right. That is, make it hard to find the users.

I see you dropped code a few times and left out what issue there is here. It's bad enough when folk drop code and don't know where it is broke but here it's still unclear what the issue is. If this is a tutorial dump, more is needed than just code.

Read https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question

And add your questions or tell the forum this is a tutorial.

Why simplify? As a new coder you would solve the problem using what you taught so far. Also, watch https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/1227669/answer.aspx

If your code is just broken, then share what line it broke at.

Finally, if I simplify your homework, how would you be able to explain the code and why?

Looks too similar to https://www.daniweb.com/programming/software-development/threads/515486/dfs#post2238127
May have to tell more.

When I have to track this problem done I focus on one resulting value at a time. So take the result, just one and add printf's as needed to see what the values are going along and then the result. I see a lot more data than would be required. That is, one failure is enough. Fix the one failure then the next.

This was kicked around a bit but your numbers are in the ballpark.

Got your DM. You are expecting me to reverse engineer this which is fine but may not get you many takers.

Explain where you think it fails.

I take it you elected to dump more code and hope. Read the link again and try to avoid "it doesn't work" posts. I can't tell what it is supposed to do either.

Read that link again about how to make better questions and discussions.

I read your post but the code doesn't clearly tell me what it does. My guess is it's code imcomplete. Take time to read the next link on how to improve the chances of folks responding with new ideas.

Read https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question

@AssertNull, I think the concept Mr.M is working on smells like a bad thing because either they didn't present it well or it is just someone trying to be underhanded and scrape data.

For example, read https://freedom-to-tinker.com/2017/12/27/no-boundaries-for-user-identities-web-trackers-exploit-browser-login-managers/ and just sending the content without post etc could be an attempt to thwart privacy managers.

Most folk here won't help when it comes to such work.

Wireshark would not be a basis for this since even with a pair of WAPs (you are a network thesis writer so I'll use common acronymns) you won't get packet data from the other WAP. So monitoring is done from the monitoring port of you network plant. This is why many will design the network plant with monitoring, logging being built into the design. Adding it later may be costly.

Cisco networking usually has this built in with only the need to buy their software and create the reports the management wants to see. It is rarely created from scratch.

That said, monitoring is getting less and less effective. Between TOR and VPN use, you can't piece the wall and see what the user is doing over the VPN so it's a fool's errand to create a new monitoring system.

So something like http://www.corteil.co.uk/Blog/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-birthday-countdown/
It appears this is a common thing. maybe a few dozen to hundreds out there.

@Sinda. Don't bury your new question in 4 year old posts. Make your own. Do not leave out details like the cart isn't from HP and the printer is 10 years old.

OK, let's run your VB.net app in Visual Studio. Not the .EXE but the source. Visual Studio has a community version so it's not like you don't have access to VS. When the app faults, VS will stop and show you the line of code with the error. Now the fun begins.

At 3.5 years the battery can get weird. Can you reveal, find out and share what the battery health looks like?

Nod to batterybar. The free one.

Sadly if the PC is void of make and model you likely have some clone. Something made of parts from many vendors.

So it's time to get out the Volt meter and measure each leg of the PSU. Remember I take it you are into PC repairs and would have the required gear and would know how to measure said voltages as well as use Google to see where to measure.

From the story the power supply looks dead. The CD-ROM is not a test of the PSU you can use as it won't tell you if all the PSU legs are good.
Also, I haven't seen a CDROM drive in about 2 decades. All seem to be DVDRW and a few BDRWs.

Again you write about an API but didn't call it out. Also you write about a Faculty Lecture stored in the API yet again, no mention of the API name or example code. You won't get far repeating your top question.

Read more about asking questions at https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question
As in the posting a question link, you left out what makes a good question.

Did you inspect the insides for all the fans coming on at power up?

Did you get out a Volt meter (remember this is a basic item when you repair computers and more) to measure each power supply leg?
What were the readings?

Also, why not find out what PC model this is? It's going to matter soon enough.

You wrote API a few times but didn't call out what API you are working with. To me, JavaScript is just that but not an API. So tell more.

Also I see a lot of repeated questions like "How do I store checkbox values?" but the OP's usually forget to check priors. Example DW search follows:
https://www.daniweb.com/search/index?q=how%20do%20i%20store%20html%20checkbox%20values

You may have passed up all those prior discussions here.

-> https://www.daniweb.com/search/index?q=storing%20checkbox%20value%20in%20database

Absolutely. Parsing text is something covered in most C and other courses. Here's a tutorial.

https://www.codingunit.com/c-tutorial-searching-for-strings-in-a-text-file

To find this on my own I reduce the lines by half and see if the error is still there. If still there, I halve again until no errors. This finds the bad line in about 4 or less steps then I can focus on that line.

Wait, why does your post look exactly like https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/python-code-game-resembles-123-redlight-green-light-game-person-starts-curator-stands-end--q26277112

I wonder how you got this far in the course to hit this task. Did you happen to ask folk to code this for you? Folk that do that often fail on the finals.

It appears the Compaq V1000 is not a model you can reset the password with the usual tricks of removing the battery or such.

Contact HP to find out what method to use. May require you to supply some code number from a screen and HP will supply a reset password. This reset password is not something you find on the internet. It's something more so you are stuck working with HP.

Yes, M. Before you write an app to interact with a SQL server you would have learned to use a SQL command line to practice with.

Maybe you skipped an important tutorial or lesson?

You're getting better. But when I work SQL problems like this I take the command and try it from my SQL command line. That way I can see if the syntax is right.

This varies with make and model. Tell more.

Is this similar to https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/511883/display-name

Remember you need to not only show the other code in the backend but do not discount this has been done so many times both right and wrong. Again, never store the password in the database. You encrpyt (see how on the link I noted before) then compare the encrypted version from your login with the encrypted version in the database.

You left out your code and where you are having problems. How to take a screenshot is on the web so that can't be the problem. In VB6 a form's properties can be found and more so that's not the issue either.

Try again but share where you got stuck.

Finally, in some Windows you won't be able to save to the root folder of C: ( %SystemRoot% ).

I've never heard of such an upgrade path. The deal for a free up from 7 or 8 to 10 is now at its end so for you to do this you have to buy some Windows 10 version and install it. Of course you have a lot of work to do such as drivers and such after but no known supported path today.

If it's like mine, you did it right.

Internet -> Router w/WiFi -> Switch -> wired devices.

All the wired devices can talk among themselves with an exception being if an app uses the internet to talk to other things. But file copies, normal stuff just is traffic on the porst of the devices chatting and the ports on the switch. Nowhere else.

Can create headaches for those that want to monitor what a device talks about.

Need a little more. In a switched network if machine a and b are on the same switch the traffic is direct between a and b and no other network device sees a thing. Kind of like Master Sergeant Schultz,

I see nothing! I hear nothing! I know nothing!

This just in. Hawaii's alert system screen revealed. Must be hard to code this one as well.
