[QUOTE=usahomegoods;1557886]It may be due to some dust in your hard drive. It reduces the performance of the hard drive.[/QUOTE] It is highly unlikely to be dust in the drive. It would already be dead if it were unsealed enough to allow dust particles into the drive assembly. On many drives …

Have you tried running chkdsk on the volume? Or does Windows not see the partitions? What does it look like when you run the disk manager tool?

What burner software is your system running? Brasero? Have you tried changing the burning options in the tool, such as buffer size, etc? Also, when burning, you want to be sure that you aren't running much else that takes CPU or I/O (disc) cycles or you will experience the problems …

[QUOTE=SWEngineer;1501270]What does it mean when we [B]select [/B]a RAM by assigning [CODE]select = 1[/CODE]? Thanks.[/QUOTE] Where do you do this? Please explain.

That's called a wireless bridge. It can pick up a WiFi signal and let you connect with an ethernet cable. Is that what you are looking for? If so, here is a link for one at buy.com: [url]http://www.buy.com/prod/zyxel-wap3205-300-mbps-wireless-n-access-point-ethernet-client-and/q/loc/101/211875912.html[/url]

Also, what processor(s) do each represent? A Nehalem cpu has a better memory bus architecture than a Penryn or similar cpu.

You should be able to find the driver on the Toshiba web site, probably under "Support" for the model of laptop you have.

Try indenting your code between braces. It will be a lot easier to read. Comments: 1. Use loops with control values, not goto statements. I'd fail you for that alone if I were teaching the class. 2. This is a C++ class. You are writing C code. Structure your application …

Does it also count the previous character entered?

Have you considered that possibly the CPU is toast? I would suggest that you contact Gigabyte, the board manufacturer, about sending it in for repair.

2GB of RAM to run Vista plus the Android emulator is not enough, unless you have a big swap file, and then it will run like molasses. You need at least 4GB for this code combination, IMO.

Usually these pretty much just clip on, or use a friction fit. The stuff you found on the sink and chips that they were attached to was probably a thermal transfer paste or tape that helps draw the heat from the chips to the sink where it can be removed …

These games really exercise the system - CPU, memory, video. A lot of this sort of shutdown/reboot problem occurs because of component overheating. Make sure that your system is effectively dust free, that the fans work properly, and that, as noted by others, your power supply is adequate to drive …

Overheating RAM is not an uncommon problem. You need to monitor the temperature, if you can. I don't know about Windows Vista capabilities in that regard. I use a free version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (Scientific Linux) 6 that has full support for system thermal sensors. Using that, I …

Some current trojans are very hard to eliminate because they infect the boot sector of the disc. I have also seen some infect the restore partition libraries, so even if you reinstall the operating system, it will still be infected. This is why I recommend using Linux, and run Windows …

Run diagnostics on the system. It sounds like some component(s) is starting to fail. Since it is likely out of warranty, you may be on the hook for repair/replacement.

Virus... Time to clean your system, or reinstall it...

You can set up the second AP as either a separate AP, but as a bridge, not a router, that way. That would be a separate SSID, though you can use the same passphrases. Alternatively, you can set it up as a wireless bridge that uses the same SSID. Myself, …

What are you looking for in a "remote support appliance"? What features and capabilities are important to you?

Use public get methods to access the member variables. Leave the variables themselves private in order to protect them from outside modification, but with a get methods, such as "const member_type getMemberName() const", you can access the variable data safely, and easily.

Try a Google search on the term. There is quite a bit of information about this if you would just look for yourself... :-(

Personally, IDE's generally get in my way. I prefer a good programming editor, Makefile, debugger user. Each can run in its own window and don't interfere with each other. I have used a lot of different IDE's including Visual Studio, Eclipse, Qt-developer, and others (some that no longer exist). All …

What version of VBox did you install? The current versions (3.2.12 and 4.0) support hardware virtualization extensions of current AMD and Intel processors, and can run Windows 2008 server just fine. If you have a 64-bit version of Linux, then you can run the 64-bit version of 2008 as well. …

It is best to leave workstations and servers running, unless you are going to leave them just idling for extended periods of time. IE; turn off the workstation when going away for the weekend. Servers should probably not be powered down except for maintenance. In any case, power-up is the …

JNI is used to access C/C++ and other machine code components from Java, not the other way around. That said, I think that there are ways to access Java code from C/C++ applications, but it has been a lonnnng time since I read anything about that. Anyway, my Google search …

I was having a similar problem on my small office network, and it turned out to be a switch that was starting to fail. Interestingly enough, the errors were all on received packets. Outgoing ones were fine, which is what made this difficult to diagnose. Replacing the switch fixed the …

Sum: for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) { // compute value for i // add value to total }

Short answers, 1. Same as you would in a C application. 2. Ditto - you can't. Long answers. 1. Why? Call system("ntpdate ntp_server_address") - this will set the system time to the global clock. Guaranteed accurate. If you want to set it to your own value, use system("date date+time_value"). 2. …

Get and read Andrew Tanenbaum's Minix book for a good guide to building a minimal OS. FWIW, that was (I believe) where Linus Torvalds started when he built Linux. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_S._Tanenbaum[/url]

I think I understand what you are trying to get at. The T1...T4 elements are threads (label axis clearly please), and 1...28 are the sequence of steps that occur. With that clarified, we can move forward. One observation - T2 unlocks D3 at step 21 after writing it at step …

I see no closing brace in main(). Also, post your code inside code blocks and indent appropriately, please. It makes it a lot easier to read, and fix.

The putw() function writes the raw integer data to the output stream. If you want it viewable by human eyes, then use printf("%d ", num) instead. Also, you might find this reads better: [code] for (num = getw(fp); num != EOF; num = getw(fp)) { printf("%d ", num); } [/code]

Stop running MS operating systems, and install Linux. Your chance of getting viruses and/or other malware will drop about 99.995%...

The device is from Interepoch, and is from about 8 years ago, now "phased out". I doubt you will get Win7 support for it. Here is their web page for it: [url]http://www.interepoch.com.tw/support/iwe100_u.asp[/url]

Use the select() call to indicate when there is data ready to be read on a socket/file-descriptor.

What about the Steam game engine?

Does it come up with the boot splash screen? Can you access the BIOS? If not, it's time to send it in for repair.

Sure, why not? I do this frequently. I install a live Linux on one partition, and use the other for data that I want to keep.

Actually, one should not put PATH exports in bashrc files. In the .bash_profile is more appropriate. In any case to answer your question, the dot means "local directory", the $PATH expands to the current path, and $M2_HOME/bin expands to the bin directory in whatever directory the M2_HOME environment happens to …

Instances of dll usage share code, not data. You need to create a shared memory segment by the first instances of the dll to start and make that accessible by subsequent instances as they start up. You can also make that shared memory persistent so that it stays around until …

Mr. Koenig is someone to pay attention to. If you are spending too much time/cycles in memory allocation/initialization, then the usual solution is to cache the memory so it can be reused without reallocating. In truth, memory management is one of the gnarlier problems that complex and long running applications …

Myself, I prefer a good syntax-highlighted editor such as nedit, Makefiles, a good C++ compiler (g++ works for me) and a good debugger (gdb to go with g++). I've used Eclipse and others, but I prefer to know exactly what is going on, so I stay with the basic tools …

You also have to change your LOCALE environment variable in your ~/.bash_profile and re-login. Also remember that input for Hangul either requires multiple input keys for one ideograph, or a chorded key input (multiple keys at a time, such as shift-alt-something). I set up systems for this on QNX and …

Time to contact your vendor for warranty support...

Time to visit your teaching assistant for some help I think. This is a variant of an elevator seek algorithm, so you might want to look at this: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevator_algorithm[/url] and this: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_scheduling[/url]

Wait awhile. There is a new crop of Mac Pros and Minis coming out soon from what I have read in the past few days.

Ok. It seems to me that your teacher wants you to think about how to parse some well-formed statements into tokens and a structure that allows you to further evaluate them. There are several key steps you need to implement: 1. Reading the input and breaking it into separate pieces …

[QUOTE=jwenting;1585810]the scanner should have a programming interface you can access. Most likely it stores nothing at all, that's up to you! It just sends you data (when activated) using a specific data format that you then need to interpret in some way to figure out what's there.[/QUOTE] Indeed. You need …

I have 3 eSata arrays with good cooling and a dual drive docking station where you plug the drive into a slot in a vertical orientation. The dock uses ambient air flow to cool the drives, and it seems to work just fine for extended periods of time. The one …

What is the actual structure of this variable? What is its definition?
