    Another VMWare question

    I'm not hiding it. The program has been running since 1995. Nobody bothered to upgrade the software. Now the original disc are lost. (not my responsibility) When told we need to upgrade the software, and it would cost $$$$, all I got was "isn't there another way?". A couple more days of trying...

    Another VMWare question

    Corperate has mandated the removal of all Windows XP Computers. No big deal, except for one computer. I made an image of this computer and installed it on a Windows 7 computer using VMWare player. It is using the NAT networking connection. This has worked fine as none of the network 'sniffing'...

    Old i7 vs. New i5 (or Xeon E3)

    I know of one manager that insisted he have the top of the line computer. His old one was removed from his desk. The guts were transferred to a new case and returned to him. Kept him happy that way for years.

    Manual install of VMWare tools.

    All I get when I try the 'Normal' way, is a box telling me there is no internet connection, then the installer dies.

    I am trying to install VMWare tools on an XP guest operating system that has no internet connection. I am using Windows 7 as the host running Player 4.0. I downloaded (from a different computer) the tools files from here, but they are '.exe' files. Player is looking for '.iso' files. Running...

    Nichia Develops 60 Lumen Per Watt White LED

    The fluorescent lighting in the office area I work in is 'Warm White'. We had the 'Cool White' lamps replaced about 12 years ago. The only CFL lamps my wife lets me install are in the yellow range. The blue hue lights look very un-natural to me. The Sun is yellow too. Maybe when it becomes a...

    Ford Mustang 2012 review

    Many years ago (I was 11) I raced a go-kart. I was timed on the back stretch of the race track at 40+mph. Today I still think I was doing 100mph. The sensation of speed when you are in the open air with your ass an inch or two off the ground is awesome :-D

    Back in the 60's, Hertz actually rented the original Mustang GT350. They found out real quick that wasn't a good idea. Besides being beat to death, some came back without the original engine in them. :bigeek:

    Ford Mustang 2012 review

    My car was in for repairs ( I backed into a Jeep). My insurance company paid for most of the cost to rent a car. I got a mini Cooper. In my ~50 years of driving, that was the worst car I ever drove. I literally kissed the keys and steering wheel of my XB when I got it back.

    Glass Gremlins v. windshield chip repair

    They were optional equipment in the cars. The higher end models got them as standard equipment first and then trickled down to the others. I believe Lincolns had them in 1963?? In 1968 the first federal safety standards went into effect. Seat belts, collapsible steering columns, split master...

    Glass Gremlins v. windshield chip repair

    Nope. In 1965 seat belts were optional. I was driving a 1965 Mustang and hit a 1964 Chevy Impala head on. Crumpled up the Mustang pretty good. Scratched the paint on the Chevy. Good thing I have a hard head. :mrgrn:

    48V DC LED wiring for a new build; XM-Ls, etc.

    Reasonable drive configuration for an entry level file server

    The servers I put together to gather and store data have a mirrored (3Ware 9650se) boot and OS hard drive with data on a separate partition. I haven't lost any data in 10+ years. The newest file servers have an Crucial M4 SSD as the OS and program hard drive. Data is on a LSI 9640 8i RAID 5...

    Slow network with large numbers of files.

    Apparently MS limits file copying in Win 7 to 10% of the network speed. I have been searching for a fix, but no luck yet.

    If you check the motherboard specs, you may be able to install a Xeon processor in a desktop/workstation mother board rather than using a server board. My ASUS P8B-WS is running a Xeon E31230 with 4 cores plus hyper threading. Total of 8 cores. It was cheaper than an i7. But I believe it is an...
