 | Hello, IE 5.2 has been out of date for OS X for a couple years now... the browser of choice is Safari or Firefox. I would start there, as an installation of either could make that website more accessable for you. Which version of 10 are you working with? 10.1 … |
| | Hello, I am wondering what Daystar has in mind for your computer. I have purchased 2 DayStar units in the past.... one for my LC to move it from 16 MHZ 68020 to a 40 MHZ 68040, and the second was for my Power Mac 7100 to go from 66 …  |
| | Hello, Apple's article says that it should handle 4 terabytes. [url]http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25557[/url] The thing though is that the partions become very unmanagable. If something goes wrong, how do you backup such a large volume? I like to see multiple partitions on big disks, just to break them up, and keep them … |
| | Hello, I have not found one for the Mac OS X, and to be honest, do not trust partition magic on Windoze either. I feel that anything that works the filesystem at this level is just an accident waiting to happen. Christian |
| | Hello, It sounds to me that you have Virtual PC installed, and are running an emulator for Windows on your computer... Apple II never had a C: Remember Applesoft Basic? It has a ] Prompt. Integer Basic had the > prompt. I will need to go home tonight and see … |
| | Hello Jason, OS X 10.1 was better than 10.0, but in many ways not ready for primetime. Certain video drivers were not ready for older machines, printing times were horiffic, and it was just not ready for the big day. I would encourage you to backup any data you may … |
| | Hello, Zach, OS 9 was a nice OS to work with. Properly installed and configured, you too can have a lasting pleasent experience with it. I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with OS 9... perhaps if you posted to the Mac Forum, we could look at the …  |
| | Hello, In my day, we made something called a "makefile" in order to bind it all together. Do a search on makefiles.... I have not built one in quite some time. I also believe that when the compiler makes the first pass, and sees the .h file referenced, it simply …  |
 | Hello, I like RedHat / Fedora. It has worked well for me. I found Debian to be beyond user unfriendly. Documentation all over the place, but not organized in any one fashion. If I were starting out today, I would be with Fedora, and with SuSE in second place. Christian  |

| | Hello, You are going to need to search for PCI cards that are Gigibit in speed, and work in Macintoshes that operate OS 9. Asante might make some... so may Farallon. If these computers are really old, and are running with NuBus slots in them, then forget the idea. NuBus …  |
 | Re: Mail Server... Hello, This is a large question, and deserves to be answered in parts.... [QUOTE=viperman224]Sorry not sure how to edit my last post. Ok I have been thinking, I am about to give up on windows. It drives me nuts. I was reading online about using Linux Debian to host a … |
| | Hello, I like the idea of placing that infomation on removable media, such as a CD-ROM or a DVD. I would make a second disk, and store that information in another location, in the event of a fire, or misplacement. As long as you are running as the root/administrator of … |
| | Hello, OpenOffice will also allow you to directly export to .pdf format. You will not have options to control the export to the degree that Acrobat Writer will allow (such as picture quality, including fonts or not), but it will make generic PDF files just fine. And it is free. … |
| | Hello, This question is similar in concept to building a pyramid. You might want to expand on what you are trying to do first. Christian |
| | Hello, While you are at it, you might want to consider doing that with Microsoft Office service packs too. And you can get the Office toolkit thingy and make your own MST files. Christian |
| | Hello, When looking for software packages to work with, I demand cross-platform capability. Take a look at Photoshop, or Ragtime, or Adobe Acrobat, or Open Office. Mac Version. Windoze Version. Linux Version. For things like Online calendaring and email, I look at web-driven programs such as eGroupware, a suite of … |
 | Hello, You can restore from backups. or try to re-create the file by hand. By hand is probably not going to work... and it sounds like you didn't make backups, so I think you are going to re-install. Sorry, Christian  |
 | Hello, You may want to do a search on World Clock. With my ham radio activities, I need something like this too. But I chose to track one down for my Palm Pilot instead, as I see desktop space as a premium. Christian |
| | Hello, Kezz is right... you need to have the picture stored on some internet site, and post the link (address) of where the picture is stored. iPhoto is a local photo management utility. Christian |
| | Hello, The books and directions told you to backup your data first. Not knowing what you did in your upgrade, I can only guess that you formatted the drive during the installation, and lost it all. Your data should have survived the transition from 9 to 9.2 unless you did … |
| | Hello, What you have there is a G4 Tower computer that ran at 400 Mhz, with some expansion options. It is not the newest / fastest beast on the market, but for a good used price, it will make someone a nice home computer, or in the office for moderate … |
| | Hello, I would go into the Disk Management (part of compuer management), and take a look to see if the new drive is formatted, or if you need to do a security function (take ownership, re-assign rights) to the drive's existing information. You may need to partition the drive, and … |
| | Re: Linux compilers Hello, The question may be if you, or the person that setup linux on your computer, chose to install the C++ environment for you. The selections when setting up linux may be referred to as Development Libraries or Development Tools. You might need to go and add them to your … |
| | Hello, Under Windows 2000, there is an option to make 4 floppy disks, and start the software installation from there. You might be able to do that with XP. I am not sure; I do not have an XP disk handy here to look for it. Also check to see … |
| | Hi, Don't hide things from your wife. I do not know what extent that you have corruption, but she is your life and business partner, and should not be pushed aside as such. Christian  |
| | Re: USB Problems Hello, What OS are you working with? I am wondering if the USB devices on the computer need a driver update. Might even be BIOS related. I would go to the laptop manufacturer's website, and look there for driver updates. Christian  |
| | Hello, I would code this using a bubble-sort (or other sort) that after the input is completed, the numbers in the array are sorted. Then, you can do a compare, and discard the duplicate elements. Then, you can run through the array and count the elements. Christian |
| | Hello, It sounds to me that there is a DNS problem on the computer. A quick way to check that is to go to a working computer, and ping the address of a site you are trying to reach (ping [url]www.daniweb.com[/url]). Then, find out the IP numbers (lets say 12.22.13.12) … |
| | Hello, This is a deep involved question, and I will have to come back to it. Check back late tomorrow. Christian |
| | Hi, First, and this is a style thing... I hate it when people place the brace { on the same line as the expression... just does not look nice to me. Adjusted: [CODE]int main () { const int MAX_NUM = 60; const int MAX_CALLS = 41; int num_calls [MAX_CALLS]; int … |
 | Hello, They may have even pasted it on the case of the computer. Microsoft has been doing that sort of case graffitti since Windows 2000. Nice flashy warning label on the box. Christian  |
 | Hello, I moved your thread into the Windoze Security forum... We saw this one at work too, and it was pounding our network to a point that people could not print. If you have what we had (bling.exe, o.exe, bl[1].exe) and found the registry keys with the word 'psYko' inside … |
| | Hello, You should be able to clone it with Ghost. Just make sure that the image partition is smaller than the destination partition. Christian |
| | Narue, I liked this one. Amazing insight into Operating Systems. I found it refreshing. Thank you, Christian |
| | Hello Jose, You are on the right track. You can go into netinfo and enable the root (pure UNIX root) account, and with that information, be Godlike on the computer. You can also turn off permissions at the Volume level. Not recommended, but it can be done. You can also … |
| | Re: New to Mac Hello, I agree with Kezz on both counts... eliminate IE and go with Firefox or Safari. Christian |
| | Hi, Now might be a good time to look at computer markets for a used 386 / 486 laptop (color). That way you have a computer that is nice and easy to store, and you can play your games with it. It should have a video out if the LCD … |

| | Hello, I have been finding it more effective to run AdAware in Safe Mode. Christian |
| | Hello, It is spelled beans. And no, your efforts to learn C++ are not going to go to waste. You should be learning coding style, learning that comments are just as important as the actual code, and learning about data structures and algorithms. Perhaps even efficient code... there are many …  |
| | Hi, The more clock cycles an instruction takes, the longer the instruction takes. Computers "read" and do things on the top of the pulse of the clock cycle. We are talking electricity. For example, lets say it is a 1 volt system. When the clock trips, the voltage goes from … |
| | Hi, I moved the thread, as it was misfiled in the Adobe area. He may or may not have Windows 2000/NT/98 Nero isn't a Mac piece of software, so I stuck the topic here by default. Christian |
| | Hello, I really enjoyed Algebra... it was the trig based calculus that got me. That and discrete math... how many colored marbles in a jar, probability of picking so many of this color or that color. I loved calculating things that do not exist. Christian |
| | Hello, I would rebuild it from scratch too. Do the partition management by hand, and then install 98, and then XP. If you plan to ever dabble with Linux, keep a 10 - 15 GB space available for it. You can install Linux at a later date, and it will … |
 | Re: Pascal starter. Hello, I am not certain if this thread is alive or not, but if you are still out there, Please post your code and let's look at this. I enjoyed Pascal a lot in college, and wish I could still use it instead of C/C++ when I have to occasionally … |
| | Hello, Read the announcement on the C++ help forum page (the page you looked at when you opened this thread. What you do is have [[i][/i]code] and [[i][/i]/code] at the beginning of your code. [[i][/i]code] // This is a comment // This is another one [[i][/i]/code] Feel free to edit …  |
| | Hello Jan, I cannot explain very slowly, because I cannot control how fast you can read. Perhaps print the response out upside-down to slow you down. :) I know what you are getting at... Backing up software requires a few thoughts... 1) How much / what do you wish to … |
| | Hi, I had to use NDISWrapper on my Fedora Core 3 laptop with a wireless D-Link card. DLink also has a problem of having the same card product number, but different guts inside across multiple flavors. I did have a problem though upgrading to the latest kernel revision of Fedora … |
| | Hello, It sounds to me that you need to remove Office 2002, and re-boot, and then re-install it. If you cannot find the media, you should be able to contact Microsoft, and offer them a legitimate license key and see if they can send you some new media. Of course, … |
The End.
