And compatibility with set top players...

Yeah, but how does that help my parents when they have a dozen virus candidates 10 directories deep? Should they be forced to use Explorer?

How do you delete viruses using the new free version based on 7.0? As far as I can tell it will detect the virus scan after scan without any attempt at deleting the file automatically or manually. Atleast with the 6.0 based free version you were given the option to delete the virus in plain sight.

WD drives are particularly bad about bearing noise in my experience. Usually the drive starts off quiet and deveolpes a majority of its whine within the 1st couple months. After that initial "break in" period the drive slowly gets louder, often gradually enough so that it is not noticible until...

Sorry for my brevity, but I do think that if you are worried about what your computer is being used for or what your children are exposed to you really should put the PC in an open, accessible location where you, can monitor what goes on. This involves effort on your part, but has the best...

Put the PC in the living room?

Bearing noise is not an indicator of failure, just age. If the drive has been used a few years that would be expected of a 75gxp or 60GXP model. I would not typically expect it from a 120GXP or newer. SMART could probably tell you the power on hour time to give you an idea of how much the...

you've done well... my only suggestion would be to try the card in another system to ensure this is not a software bug.... if it still exists likely something has failed such as Mark's suggestion of RAM.

Although it seems crazy, might want to disable any proxies/firewalls/filters you have installed. if that doesnt fix it, I would reinstall the NIC, and run the following commands from command line (this assumes winXP SP2): netsh int ip reset reset.log netsh firewall reset netsh winsock reset...

yup, different drives count differently. Maxtor seem to add one unit per minute, while IBM, WD, and Seagate add one unit every hour... My Samsung seems to add 2 units per minute (while this makes little difference from one every 30 seconds, it does appear to be 2 per minute with dtemp or the...

Sorry I missed the event. Happy Birthday.

dtemp just reports the info and actually works better than any tool I've used for reporting SMART statistics in a meaningful way... so a newer tool probably wont help.

you need to look at the raw value

They offer Regular, Premium, and business class. To my knowledge the Premium came out about a year ago.

wow, I had not heard of this... but I was told that the premium service will be going to 8Mbit/sec instead of the current 6MB/sec.

Merc, you are welcome to use Jabber and an OSS client. You can even run your own Jabber server if you wish to have complete control over communication.

I use miranda

Crashed me twice in a row on moz 1.7.2

when i bout about $200 worth of mouse pads from newegg around Halloween half of the packages had been opened nd missing parts.. no sign of use though... Buying new and getting used parts instead is one of the main reasons I've never shopped at tiger direct, as I've heard several complaints...

Merc, I'm taking a 2 part Linux class at a Junior college right now, it is aimed at preparing students for the Red hat Certification. I have basically completed the 1st semester/half of the course and could provide you with a syllabus to give you an idea of what is being taught. I've been...

an RC raceway seems like an open place so I would imagine you'd get very good coverage with something that had a decent antenna.

neither of my 15 gb 75gxps have failed.. both outlived the 3 year warranty...

Also, you could buy a new 10/100 switch from newegg for about the same price from trendware... maybe even a bigger switch... One of the other points, not sure if it was covered is that a switch dedicates the full network bandwidth to each port while hubs share the entire network bandwidth...

I've had better luck with my enlight PSUs than my Antec solution series.. I'm Zero for 2 Antec solutions while I have had maybe 1 Enlight PSU fail out of 40 in twice as many years... If you want something better than Enlight go with an FSP (sold at newegg under fortron or sparkle, just search...

I bought a pair of gigabit realtek network cards for $12 a piece... so not expensive.. They probably work 2-3x faster than 100Mbit cards. Prices on gigabit switches aren't bad if you get a basic one. Also, no need to update your router if you have a secondary switch. {--Router--} |...

I've setup a couple of these and they work great, easy to configure, very cheap price. Would like to have the increased secuirty of a .g AP though. And a detachable antenna would be convenient too.

yup, everything appears fine now

There's a whole write up here, but these are the things I notice. IMAP supports having folders and a directory structure to your account, rather than a single inbox. IMAP also allows you to download message headers without downloading the entire message (this is theoretically possible with a...

That's what I thought at 1st, then I looked at the other versions and it seems to be a specific language where they dont use the abbreviation SP for service pack...

The rule of thumb is that you need to use the SMTP server of the network you are connected to. Since each network provider (theoretically) has control over who connects to their network they can then control what goes out of their mail servers. Because this can be a pain for users who travel...

one question, what the heck is XP Dodatek SP. 1 (Build 2600)?

When Steam 1st came out for linux it forced the install through a hard coded binary to install it on your /var partition or some such nonesense... if you didnt have room it would error out... quite the pain as I didnt have enough free space and had to remove files, install steam, move steam...

I've had sf manually assigned in my hosts file... Im trying with that entry remarked, I'll let you know if it works... seems to be fine so far

I beleive my 75GXP has a reatachable ribbon style connector that connects the motor to the PCB... the maxtors I've purchased have several thin wiries encased in an epoxy, the 180gxp I has has a ribbon stle cable that has been soldered to the drive housing(not sure how it connects to the PCB)...

The temp sensor works of a thermistor, a reistor which properties change with temperature. Depending on the type of thermistor used the resistance may be positively or negatively correlated to temperature. If the thermistor is of the negative type then it may make sense that resistance has...

Just to clarify, I was not talking about TS, just RMA service. No way in God's name am I going to ask for newegg tech support. Newegg's RMA service has sent me the wrong item, to replace a wrong item... and I'm currently dealing with newegg playing peek-a-boo with an RMA. I've already sent a...

perhaps... @echo off "\Program Files\D-Tools\daemon.exe" -unmount 0 cd "\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\" start "BattleFront" /HIGH c:\progra~1\lucasa~1\Starwa~1\GameData\Battle~1.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

Agreed on Antec. I've had to call newegg several times now, and while they do answer their phone within a few minutes I can't say that they have EVER helped me. -Blake

Exactly, you can drain nearly all the power by leaving the unti unplugged and trying to turn it on.. however I have never seen evidence that a PSU holds much electricity anyway. I've taken several apart without incidence. A monitor(CRT), however, carries enough voltage to kill or atleast shock...

I wouldn't doubt if they would warranty it still. This is a failry common problem with S-ATA drives and you bought their top tier drive. Perhaps they'll cut you some slack.

ugh, I jsut found out that my p4 has been folding towards group 0, under the anonymous name.

sounds like a capacitor might have popped... might want to check the base of capacitors or even for amissing cap.

I would probably use hotglue for now. If I ever plan to sell the drive I would RMA it and that way you would be able to sell a "new" or at least factory sealed drive, which should garner more money than your used one.

I would recommend the newest version of Mandrake Linux with KDE.

they're called green onions in the midwest

That's definately going to encourage me to use good arctic silver paste instead of the stock bubblegum or cheap white paste.

cilantro?

funny, I had something similar to that happen just the other day with a p4... no pins came out and nothign was damaged though...

Well, today we found out that are expansion cards were fried as well... One wrong connector: $6,000 damage.
