or they are put in PCs which had only IDE to give them SATA capabilities Maybe you need to flash your BIOS? I did that in my dads PC and then it was able to see over 137 gig

No this is not due to 1.3 this is his actual pc that wont start now I once managed to cook my cpu by playing farcry - maybe this happened to you?

I bet when you installed linux you changed your boot order and/or flashed your BIOS. My dell has the ability to boot from a flash memory key. If I have my external usb hdd in it thinks its one of them and crashes. Rectify it by putting it at the …

Do you not even get a BIOS screen?

You need IE or else windows update doesnt work does it?

Its a legal grey area. Best not to talk about it here. Ask on the "xbox-scene" forums or something. And i only did a case mod not a mod of the BIOS. Do you know you can swap out the ATA cables to make it like 3x times faster by …

Do you have a cordless phone? They operate on the same frequenecy as wifi. My wifi goes from 54 to about 3 when im on my phone.

The internal modem wont be a broadband one. It will be a standard one. Why not get an wireless router (which acts as a broadband modem) and use that?

open it up. Check that the motherboard is not cracked and that none of the capacitators (the cyclindrical things) are leaking

[QUOTE=TheNNS;384539]why dont you just replace the hub with the router?[/QUOTE] the "homehub" is an all in one thing for tv, phone and net . you cant just replace it

We wont do it for you. Thats not how it is. Post some code and well help.

You can move the stored emails easialy. Outlook has a "store folder". The path is somewhere under its settings (i think you click maintainance?) Copy and paste this path into windows explorer then just copy contents of that directory into the store folder on the laptop Printerwsie, are you uing …

I used to go on IRC but not anymore i dont like the people there

And you dont necesarially need DirectX or OpenGL

HAHAH! I got a rather comical error message when it crashed on my NT4 pc (i dont think it has javascript?)

Go into the job offers section and post there. Im sure a freelancer would do it for you (Id even do it for you but i wouldnt consider myself an expert programmer :) )

Learn C# inside out before worrying about DirectX or games

Deinstall all P2P programs like Utorrent and see if it goes faster.

you wont need anything apart from what i mentioned in the "whats a switch" thread. All the software is built into the OS You will not be able to have logins on XP home! Xp home is crappy for networking.

A version control system for code. I use it a lot because i like linux and a lot of cutting edge code is only avaiable via subversion (SVN) and not in binary format. Kinda like MS Sourcesafe but not as gui-ish

Did you know that Humpty Dumpty was NOT an egg - he was a cannon!
