Can you show me a program that views RAM in its current state on a computer, so I can find things like pictures that have been previously viewed, for example?

nope ,don't know of such program, sorry ,remember that memory is cleared every time the computer is rebooted .
are if you are trying to see what others are viewing on the computer .
are the picture you are concerned with viewed on the internet ,if so and IE browser is used ,go to ie tools and check history,or check temporary internet folder.
location of temp inter folder .

I'll probably just use standard foam peanuts and bubble wrap, and if they don't accept it due to the packaging, then so be it. It's a low-capacity, inexpensive drive, and I can't justify buying all kinds of packaging material that will likely add up to more than half the cost of the drive itself when it was new.

yeah ,and they will send you a refurbished drive ,as they no longerr make new low-capacity drives

Thanks for your help, the new hard drive fixed my issue, and my Seagate drive is still under warranty so I'm going to RMA that. Also, the reviews that I had read online about how bad their RMA process was are all true. It's likely going to cost me a decent penny just to track down the required shipping materials, including 2" of required solid foam around all sides of the drive.

Thanks again!

Dave

to bad you wern't close ,i have a spare box with all the foam

yeas, its a sony viao PCG-FX401 (PCG-972M)

It also says on the ram itself (100mhz, CL2) is this important?

thx for the prompt reply :)

yes that is important ,from what i see when i search the model #,it will take pc100 or pc133 ,maybe better to safe and buy the pc100 though,the pc133 would be faster but i cant say for sure it would work

if the above doesn't work ,use winzip trial version to unzip the file to another folder and run the setup.exe file by simply clicking on it and chose install.

Hey guys,

How long is a file, such as a jpeg, in memory, after the file is closed?

until windows is restarted or until windows kicks it out because its using the memory for something else ,so it would depend on how much ram you have and how much you do with windows after you opened the file

I want to copy files on C:\

--------------
does that mean you want to copy and remove them from c:\ and put them on another drive , or copy file to C:\
is c:\ you main drive with windows installed onto it ,or just a storage Drive

you could try creating a new user with full admin rights and see if it will let you copy the files

also not mentioned is if the winxp machine is old enough you may not get win7 drivers for smome hardware ,like sound /video /printers ect ect .

as stated already the word upgrade cannot be used when going from winxp to win7, you have to do a full install ,removing winxp and all software /formatting hdd

you cant format a harddrive and have all your data intact,a format erases the hdd of all data .

having said that i think i now understant what you meant .you have you drive partition into 4 parts,windows on c:\ and data on othere 3 correct,if so then just boot to your windows cd and you will get option to format c:/ and install windows to it ,all 4 partition will show in the list to chose from ,make sure you chose correct one ,they will belisted by size so wright dow the drive letters and size to make sure you are formatting correct one

It's remote control and remote viewing software, not hacking software. Have a look at it!!!!

i didn't say it was a hcking tool ,i said if it didn't require imput from the owner of the other computer ,then i would consider it a hacking tool,
if i had this software there is no way i could see what you were doing on you computer with out you having the same softwear on your comuter and getting your say so to view your computer ,correct.

the father is looking to watch his daughters usage with out her knowning he's watching her ,i have a daughter and would neve spy on her, if i had concerns i would take laptop from her, or make her use it only when she was in the same room as i was .
