Very elegant, and low cost! Of course, this $0.25 fix will never be incorporated by Dell - too expensive! In my professional opinion (as an electrical and software engineer) this is a design flaw, and should be fixed at no cost to users. Yeah, that and $5 will get you …

My thinking is that this may be normal behavior - a system-level POST (Power-On Self Test). Use the HP diagnostics as Beginnerdev suggests to see if they determine there is a problem. If not, then ignore it would be my recommendation.

Yes, the variable 'a' is const (you cannot change it), but the VALUE of the variable is a standard scalar value, which is not necessarily const. You need to cast the value to a const, as in: `const int b = (const int)a;` I agree that this should not be …

What error? You say it has "recovered"? Then why do you need help?

If this system was still under warranty, then insist that Asus provides you a new installation disc gratis! If not, then caveat emptor - never purchase a system without recovery devices, or a means to re-install the operating system if there is a major failure such as this! This is …

Most systems will enter the bios setup if you hold down any key (like esc) when starting to boot.

Sorry, but we don't do your homework for you. Make an effort to solve the problem, post your code and compiler and/or runtime errors here, and we may give you assistance.

Get a degree in computer science. Learn multiple programming languages. Become competent in graphics development. BTW, Newtonian physics is also helpful for game development.

I'd up the power supply to 1000w instead of 800 for this size of gear. I presume it is a full-size tower?

I have used Lex and Yacc and hate them! Part of the problem is that writing parsing rules is not trivial, and the other part is that they generate in-line code that cannot be easily modified - any changes are wiped out the next time you generate the code. My …

There are many good articles on the net, including Wikipedia, that will explain these concepts to you.

Assuming that the strings are dynamically allocated (with operator new or the C-style malloc/calloc functions) then they will remain around after the list pointer is deleted. More code would be helpful to enable us to better advise you.

Well, there are a number of problems with your code. Example, in the class B constructor, this B(int i1_, int i2_) : A{i1_}, i2{i2_} {} should be this B(int i1_, int i2_) : A(i1_), i2(i2_) {} Watch your parens vs brackets!

What NathanOliver said, plus we aren't here to help you cheat on your homework assignments. Make an *honest* effort to solve the problem, post your work here, and we will make appropriate comments.

To quote someone - it depends. Both are good.

Also, we don't do your homework.

This is likely a code editor issue. What editor are you using? The Windows VS editor, Eclipse, or something else?

What do you know about Linux? Have you tried to use it? Things that come to mind: 1. touch filename 2. echo "" >filename amongst others.

Probably not. Ask Apple... That and $5000 will get you a nice new system!

And your problem is?

What do you consider a virus signature?

You can setup routes on your computer, either windows or Linux, so the computer can access other systems. Essentially, you are turning your computer into a router.

All of the ram will run at the full speed.

Linux usb modems are a species of serial modem. You need to use the network management tool to configure it properly, as a PPP device.

Nutster is a newbie poster here, but is giving a lot of very good advice from what I have read so far. I am giving her/him a big thumbs-up.

I don't understand the question. What exactly do you want?

One could always compute the size of temp[] and temp1[] at runtime, malloc() the arrays, and then use memset() to initialize them, resulting in a pretty much infinite triangle size. Of course, you still need to be sure that the initial array sizes are odd, otherwise you miss the pointy …

Why do you have 3 main() functions here? Are you trying to show various approaches you have attempted? If so, then break them into separate code blocks, or postings to this thread. Thanks.

I think your problem is here: for (int i = 0; i < messageList.Length; i ++) { if (messageUserList[i].Contains("_0")) { . . . } } You probably need to set the guard barrier `i < messageList.Length` to `i <= messageListPos`. You have initialized the strings in messageList and messageUserList up …

Start by describing what entities you need (classes such as Student, Professor, Subject, Schedule, etc) to deal with, and how they interact (methods such as `subjectTaughtBy(const Subject*, const Professor*);`). An object-oriented approach to C programming can help a great deal, even if you don't have classes per se. It helps …

I read this in SlashDot or similar blogs the other day. So, when your e-smoking friend complains about headaches, just say it is the NSA or GCHQ scanning his memory! :-)

You could write a bash script to start it up on login (calling the script from ~/.bash_profile which is run when you login) to the system where it could ask for the password required. Anything else, keeping it in the script file for example, would not be safe as noted …

1. Learn to write code in C++ (not a trivial exercise). 2. Learn some C++ game API's that will make your work easier (not a trivial exercise either). 3. Design and model your game (what, where, how). 4. Implement it in the API of choice. FWIW, NathanOliver's post was spot …

Sorry, but we don't do your homework for you. I assume you have some C coding text books? There is also plenty of tutorial stuff on the internet for this. In any case, first writing out the processes and procedures you program will implement (pseudo code) is a good first …

Go to the Adobe web site and download and install it manually. BTW, what browser are you using?

GUI toolkits are VERY complex. Moschops has identified many of the issues you face. My advice is to study other GUI toolkits, such as Qt, WxWin, etc for some perspective on the issues involved. Also, how many years do you have to spend on this project? :-)

Huh? Please be more expressive of what you are trying to do, and the systems you are trying to do it on.

There are too many fundamental errors in your code to begin commenting on it. You have stuff in your .cpp files that should be in the headers. You are using constructors with values that are not visible in their scope. You are initializing class member variables inside constructor bodies when …

The address of 'x' won't change. The value of ptr may. First, ptr is assigned the address of x, then it is changed to '200'. IE, the results of the output values of 'x' and 'ptr' will differ. However, some systems will generate a core dump (segfault) when accessing the …

What Nutster said. I assume you mean a Nokia cell phone? They already have an RTC. Nokia phones use HTML and JavaScript for application development. Have you visited the Nokia/Microsoft web site(s) to get information about application development on their mobile systems?

I would suspect a problem with your HDMI gear. If your system is JUST out of warranty, bitch loudly to Toshiba. They will probably fix it gratis in order to keep a customer. Threaten them that you will NEVER purchase another Toshiba device if they don't fix it...

You don't provide enough information. Did you do a full GUI install, or just a command-line server install? Do you get to a login screen or window? If so, after the first part of the installation and it boots for the first time, it should ask for a user ID …

Time to upgrade to Windows 7 or later perhaps?

Yes? And what errors are you getting? Compiler errors, or runtime errors? Show the output. Asking us to analyze 167 lines of beginner code is asking a bit much...

Well, Windows and its applications are still the 800lb gorilla target of malware writers (viewing all the credit card hacks recently at Target, Home Depot, et al that infected Windows cashier terminals), though Mac OSX is getting more attention these days. I personally believe that Linux is still the most …

I would recommend that you create a support class, call it Person, that encapsulates name, address, city, state, and zipcode. That will simplify the underlying code considerably. IE: class Person { private: string name; string address; string city; string state; string zipCode; public: Person() {} Person(const string& aName, const string& …

What make/model of phone do you have? Current Android phones (I have several) have a flashing light at the top of the phone that is an indicator of your battery life remaining. Blue and green are good. Orange and red indicate you need to charge the device.
