I have two Nexus Ones, a Nokia Lumia 900, and a Nokia Series 40 feature phone (C3-00). They each have things to like, and things to dislike. As a mere phone w/ nice texting ability (full keyboard) the C3-00 is great (has WiFi also). Since the N1 is getting a …

If it won't get to the POST display, then it is a hardware problem. If you can't remove the DVD drive directly, then the next time you get to a POST, go into the BIOS setup and see if you can disable it. Then see if the problem continues. That …

I tend to agree with JorgeM. At least, that's what I recommend to people who want to run more than one OS on a system. Actually, if you want, you can install a small Linux image on the disc, and it's boot loader will happily handle multiple Windows systems, even …

Look at the code for VLC. What you want to do is very complex unless you just want to decode one variety of media. Personally, after 30+ years developing C code, and 20+ years C++, I would not try to do that without resorting to other API's to handle different …

First, define the value for 'size'. The `const size_t size=100;` statement is fine (proper even). After that, you can instantiate array as in your code `int *array = new int[size];`. At that point, your loop should work. As the others pointed out, in your first code example, size was not …

I don't see where you are setting the host ip address in your servadd structure. You are only setting the port. Example: struct hostent* hostent = gethostbyname(pHost); . . . servadd.sin_addr = *((struct in_addr*)hostent->h_addr);

The standard partition table allows 4 primary partitions, or you can make one of them an extended partition which can have more sub-partitions. Windows has to boot from a primary partition, but Linux can boot from extended sub-partitions.

Please try to avoid multiple posts for the same subject/topic! That said, masm is a command-line tool. I don't think it has a GUI component. You need to run it from the command line, or as part of a Visual Studio project.

To expand upon what 'cereal' said. Linux identifies files/directories by their inode. This is the ONLY authoritative identifier for the component. That allows Linux to have hard links to a file, so even if one instance is deleted, the file itself is not until all links are removed. Also, when …

What CimmerianX said. Without more information there are WAAAY too many possible causes for this problem. Does it get into the boot loader and then stop/fail while trying to boot? If it doesn't, are you sure the system is sane? Have you tried to boot from a CD/DVD/USB drive?

Are you running Windows (which version), or Linux (which distribution+version+kernel)?

You have just learned lesson 1 in the sysadmin's handbook - before changing physical system disc configuration, make a FULL external bit-image backup of the drive FIRST! I think you are going to need to run the system recovery tool (boot from recovery partition), effectively reinstalling the operating system. However, …

And you want us to fix your homework assignment? Sorry, but I have better things to do, like improve the browsing/web-apps performace for 50 million users...

I'm going to be a bit more positive about your intentions... If you have direct access to the system, you can configure ssh to allow you to login remotely. That's all I'm going to say. You have to figure out the rest - it isn't hard.

Is the DVD drive a USB, Sata, or IDE device? This is important information.

What version of Windows are you running?

Your chances of finding an expert in MIPS assembler programming here is small, at best. Find a MIPS user forum to post your question in this regard. FWIW, the MIPS chip is used in a lot of embedded systems such as routers, etc. So, there are people out there who …

I've had this problem with Win7 and my USB thumb drives. The solution was to remove ALL of the USB device entries in the system device manager, then rebooting. On reboot, all the USB device drivers will be reinstalled. I assume you are using a USB drive, correct? Doing this …

If you can see the files, you are accessing the drive. Please be more specific. The video card should not interfere with your system drive. It is possible you installed the card in the wrong slot, or got a card that is incompatible with your hardware. Post your bus specs …

A tool that works on Windows, Linux, and other (BSD) systems is VNC (Virtual Network Computing). This lets you share viewing and control of your system with others, locally or remotely. I have used it for years for supporting clients when I was a consultant - since 2000 or earlier. …

Are you using a static address, or one dynamically generated by your ISP? In any case, using a VPN service (Virtual Private Network) will effectively mask your identity. There are a number of them out there. The most famous is Tor.

So, besides having a mostly-worthless diploma, what do you ***know***? Did you do any internships? If so, what was your evaluation? IE, what can you do for an employer? A good company won't hire you right out of college without really good references. Can you get a reference from your …

I've done that in the past using raw sector editors. You usually have to boot into a live CD/DVD/USB system to do that, and it is very dangerous - you really need to know precisely how the file system is organized, and that is not always easy. All file system …

Do some reading on how to load a DLL in a running program if your goal is to dynamically link your DLL to the program based on a program argument. I'll teach you how to fish. You have to go to the river to find them...

These files are probably DRM "protected" - most of us say that they are DRM-encumbered! IE, you don't own these books - you are only "leasing" them to run on "approved" hardware/software. There may be software that would enable you capture the audio on Windows and save it to another …

Phones can exhibit at least two distinct "personnas". One is as a removable USB device. The other is as a USB communication device, modem, etc. Are you SURE it doesn't see the phone in any capacity? Go do the Devices section of the Control Panel (I assume you are running …

And learn how to do proper member variable initialization in C++ constructors!

You don't provide any error messages, diagnostics, etc. Just "don't work", which does not work for me! Want help, then provide as much useful information as you can. Emacs has a built-in compiler. If you are building this to run in emacs, then use that. The command is `byte-compile-file filename`

Simple sort-of-pseudo-code algorithm for array-based insertion sort: SourceArray = {30, 20, 100, 2, 10, 80}; TargetArray = {}; for (i = 0; i < SourceArray.length(); i++) { inserted = false; value = SourceArray[i]; for (j = 0; j < TargetArray.length() && inserted == false; j++) { // Check if value …

Multiple posts are not kewl! I answered this elsewhere...

The function 'math()' and variable 'math' are conflicting symbols. Change the name of one or the other.

Before we try to help you, post here EXACTLY the steps you took, and where you failed to move forward. You have provided your professor's instructions, but nothing about what (precisely) that you did to follow them...

I assume you mean that your system partition is smaller than the physical capacity of the disc. There are two things you can do. One is to create a new partition (using the fdisk command) and creae a file system on that (`mkfsys -t ext4 /dev/sda2` for example), then create …

What does your "num" have to do with anything? Is that your phone number? What??? As for your monitor problem, normally the CPU has nothing to do with that. Please provide the make/model of your computer as well as your monitor, and what video adapter hardware you are using, operating …

What operating system are you running? If Linux, the operating system has tools to do this, such as wpa_supplicant, etc. In such a case, you don't need to deal with the connection issues in your application software, just the communication part. The operating system will connect you once configured. Then, …

It's not worth the trouble to fix. FWIW, I am a senior Nokia systems engineer. You can get a Lumia 900 for about $50 USD these days. I'm using one for my primary phone, and it isn't bad (very good, actually). I also have a Google Nexus One running Gingerbread, …

Well, these crash reports may mean something to Mozilla engineers, but most of us are clueless! Have you tried installing a slightly older version? Or newer if this is a bit dated? Alternatively, try Chrome as suggested by johhny-marshal. I use Chrome now pretty much exclusively. It also has occasional …

What are all those leading asterisks? Is that actually in your code, or is it just showing where tab spaces are located?

I don't know what your professor said to you about this, but the attachment is pretty clear that you are to do your own work! Sorry, no help from here until you make an honest effort at it. Read the instructions - they are abundantly clear. If you don't understand …

We don't help people cheat on their homework assignments! Give the $5 to a charity as a fine for asking us!

One assumes this is a broadband wireless modem? Current systems will have a "Mobile Broadband" connection setup option in the network manager tool. Since to the system these are just USB serial devices (modems), no special software or drivers should be required.

Another term for this (for serial rs-232 connections) is a null-modem cable. For ethernet cables, this would be called a patch cable.

Speaking of recursion, I once wrote a test for compiler exception handling (when exceptions were new to C++ in the early 90's) by implementing a Fibbonacci algorithm using exceptions only. You could use that methodology here as well... :-) Anyway, you would be surprised on how many compilers failed that …

As Bob said, include <string.h> - that contains the declaration of strlen() and a bunch of other string functions, such as strcat(), strstr(), et al. Also, np_complete is correct. The <conio.h> header and clrscr()/gotoxy() methods are Windows/DOS specific. They are not portable.

`Integer intval = new Integer(999)`

As JorgeM said, however you should be able to create a VPN (virtual private network) tunnel to an external service, and download that way. If you have to ask how to do that, I can only say that "Google is your friend"... :-)

If it seems to boot, but you have no display, then HOW do you know it booted successfully? Also, have you verified that the display isn't broken? If a laptop, what if you boot with external keyboard/mouse/monitor, and the top closed? Does it show anything on the external display?

Most major companies use Linux in their data centers. Mine has several thousand servers, spread over multiple data centers world-wide! In fact, if you want to work in IT or engineering here, you HAVE to be Linux/Unix savvy. My suggestion? Install a virtual machine manager on your PC, such as …

How old? This is not an uncommon problem. My wife's 3gs has a similar issue (3 years old) - she has ordered a new iPhone 5...

Not enough information. What is the make/model of computer, and RAM? Also, how do you know that the new RAM stick is "exactly the same" as the old one? If their dates of manufacture are significantly different, then even the "same" models may be different enough not to work.
