Did you register the hard drive serial numbers with the manufacturer? That should give you all the information about your drives.

I'll be 66 in July and took the poll, so I screwed up the average.

Could someone explain this NaCL client? Thanks

The drivers that Chewy linked to says the drivers are required for Server 2012R2. Apparently the drivers are not native to Windows 8 or Server 2012R2. The drivers also work with Server 2008 so maybe you can get them to work on Windows 7.

Don't forget to add salt.

Ever try free BSD?

Do you still get a repaired hard drive as a warranty replacement?

Maybe he just got up off the floor??

Really fast.

News here.

Have you tried booting from Linux on a cd to see if it can find the partitions and files? Don't know how well this program works, but they have a free edition.

Did you click on the 'this might be the problem' link?

I have been blocking adds and other tracking trash using a modified hostfile. Info here Work very well. Even blocks adds on Google.

This might be the problem. I remember someone else making this mistake :oops:.... When you try to run 'chkdsk' from the command prompt and it reports that it can't because the drive is locked, do you want to schedule it to run and you press 'Y', do you press 'Enter' after pressing the 'Y' ? If...

You can try Hirams boot CD. You boot your computer from this CD and then run the utility that you need.

You cannot scan the 'C' partition while it is in use. You should get a message asking if you want it to preform the scan on the next reboot. Sometimes there is an overlay on the first few tracks of the hard disk that the manufacturer uses for recovery. This could be preventing the scan. Try...

Glad to hear from you Merc! Maybe staying away from all doctors for a few weeks would be a help. Help you clear your mind and thoughts.

Do you want to compare two or more folders or check the integrity on the files on the hard drive?

I know this will make a few here cringe, but I have always bought Western Digital drives. But I always bought the RE series drives. There are no funky firmware issues to use them stand alone or in RAID arrays. They have a better warranty, although I haven't used it in years. The only WD drive I...

Tannin, do you use the Pale Moon Commander utility?

An old saying: "Too many chefs spoil the soup" It could be paraphrased "too many distros spoil the Linux" Think of this: a person finally gets the shits of Windows an MS. 'I'll move to Linux'. This person Google's Linux and gets a bunch distros. (Debian, Red Hat, Ubuntu, Mint, plus other...

At work someone made the point that if the data from a process is corrupted, then copying it some where just corrupted all the data. I set up a computer to collect all the data from the process computers. This computer was busy, with data being collected almost non stop. Inside this computer was...

Don't the motherboards that the CPUs are mounted on have the ability to shut down the system if the CPU overheats?

I have diabetes. I have been taking a pill for over 15 years. It sure the hell is better than going blind.

My Winsxs folder is 10.4 GB. Did you empty the recycle bin before you checked the folder size? You could try CCleaner.

Yep, congress sold out the insurance companies. I wonder how many in congress are getting kick backs from the insurance companies?

Even if you are not into model trains, this is still a cool video.

If you Google 'asus ips panel monitors', you will find an assortment of part numbers from ASUS.

In my job there was some 'down time'. Usually I experiment with different scenarios. Take a backup image of an XP box and install it on hardware that was a lot newer, and not have anything in XP and our proprietary software break. Make an image of the new install, just in case. Then upgrade XP...

Sounds similar to the Allison V12 used in the P51 Mustang and later in Hydroplane racing boats. I was fortunate enough to witness these boat races too.

Waaaaay back when, I used to go the Indianapolis 500 with my father and later took my son. The most awesome motor sound I've ever heard were the Novi's. During time trials, you needed to hold your ears as they went down the front straight. ( The track is not really all that wide and there are...

I'm wary of some of the stuff Costco sells. I bought a 27" Samsung monitor there and when I Googled the model number off the back of the monitor, the only hits I got were for Costco. The model number wasn't listed on the Samsung site either. I could find models that were close, but the last...

If the hardware is over 3 years old, why bother?

Paragon is $39.99. About the same as some of the other backup software. Acronis has screwed their GUI up to the point that I don't use it anymore. I switched to Macrium Relect.

Instead of cloning the drive, make a backup and then install on the new drive.

Is there a computer repair shop in your area that would allow to to root through their trash for the connector latch?

8AM EDT is when almost every company in the eastern time zone 'wakes up'. I used to try to get as much internet stuff done between 5:30 AM and 7:45 AM when I was at work. At 7:55 AM all the office people would start showing up and our internet speed dropped to about 30% of what it was just a few...

They could have gone to Bonneville Salt Flats.

WOW!!!!

Why not a SSD?

Would something like this work?

I don't know if this applies to your problem, but we had computers stop connecting to each other because the clocks were too far off from each other.

New 5TB Toshiba hard drive.

My wife and I are going out to dinner next week, probably on a week night. No crowds, better service. And sometimes lower prices.

About a foot of snow here in PA. I'm glad I have a snow blower.

The past few days have been the best so far of my retirement. I got up the other morning and it was snowing. Poured a cup of coffee and watched it snow. There was no worrying about getting to work, would I be late, should I just call off, when was the snow plow coming, or could I get out of my...

No thanks. It seems to me that it would just cause alot of problems.

Can you uninstall windows backup from the features menu and then re-install?

The game sucked and the commercials were boring and confusing.
