Has anyone heard of an issue with SP3 where a touchpad will stop working. I just installed SP3, reboot the machine, now the touchpad doesn't work. I un-installed SP3 and I can finally get a USB mouse working, but still not the touchpad...

Windows XP Pro, SP3. About 2 weeks ago it started rebooting every night at exactly 10:25pm. I am not on site, but have remoted into the system to look it over. - There are no scheduled tasks. - Avg is installed and all scheduled events are off, except a scan that's done at 3:00am. Also...

I'm having an issue slaving a SATA drive on my machine to recover data off of a drive. The computer I'm working on is running 2K pro, and is BSOD on boot. So I thought I could pop the drive into my workstation on SATA and it would show up as a second drive like with IDE, but nothing came...

I've been in the market for a laptop for quite some time. I've kind of eliminated Dell from the line-up because their price vs. build quality has left me wondering. So, I started looking at Sager laptops, but the sites I go to look sketchy. I think I've narrowed it down to a Toshiba...

I have an interesting problem, I hope someone else has seen this.... Seasonal restaurant, opening up for the year. Everything was fine last year, now when any of the computers boot, if the network cable is plugged in, they lock up on the Windows splash screen. If it's unplugged they all boot...

Quick question, I haven't been following SATA that closely, as I've been running my current rig for 7 years.... I have an ABIT IC7-G Max 2, I think it using the first gen of SATA, can I use a SATA II drive in it?

Here's hopefully not a new issue. I'm having an issue with Firefox and printing web pages... If you preview a really long page it will only display say the first page, then skip to the last one. Sometimes it won't even print what is shown. Any thoughts?

Hey everyone, didn't know if this was the best place to post this, but I have a log for Hijack this, and I was hoping I could get some info from it. It doesn't look like anything strange, but the network seems to rely on this computer to be on, and it shouldn't..... I was thinking viri or...

I'm still looking for a good mobo on a new rig. I currently am using an Abit IC7-G that I bought because of the bells and whistles. Honestly, it's been an awesome board, except for the northbridge cooler falling off and I had to epoxy an aftermarket one (now my temps are better, and it won't...

I have recently purchased a Logitech 350 USB headset. I was at first fairly pleased with it, the concept of a USB headset was cool because it was plug & play, no noise on the mic, and worked well for the use of the mic with gaming and my soft phone. But, it only lasted about 16hours before...

Alrighty, I think I may have an interesting question. This is either not possible, or I will show my n00bness to *nix systems. Anyways, I have a server using SCO OpenServer 5. Our tape drive has failed and is extremely expensive to replace, and we're going to be replacing the system...

Hey, I'm not entirely sure this is where this post goes, so I apologize. But I was wondering what a good distro to use for a NAS would be. The only thing it needs to do is handle Windows shares mostly.

Is it possible for a rootkit to do something, or like say a Trojan to do something like delete files on a hard drive if a certain condition is met? I mean, I've heard about this stuff, but never actually seen it in action, and I think I am now.... I've been seeing some very suspicious activety...

I was considering purchasing a WD Net-Center drive, as we use them at work. But, I noticed in the last couple weeks, NewEgg only has the 160gig version. They dropped the other models.... Anyone know if the drives are junk and being discontinued? Or are they releasing a new line? I really...

It's been a while since I've been actively folding. But when I did, MidnightFreak was one of the top folders, now he's a casualty?!? Just curious what happened.

Hey everyone, I'm thinking about replacing my fUnc 1030. I loved the thing, but it's showing some wear, and needs more frequent cleaning. What's the latest and greatest? I don't want to have to use teflon feet or lubricants, so I would like to keep it to a pad that "just works" :)

Ok, hope this is the right place, and I can write my question correctly. How can I turn off XP and the open file security warning. I have a network program we use, and for some reason on 2 of the machine I've recently formatted, they prompt when running this program. It's a shortcut that...

Get this one guys, it's new to me... Had a PC that was having issues with staying running, it would boot, then just shut off. My first thought was heat, but the PC was clean and in a very cold room. It's actually a firewall and stays running all the time. So I went over to take a look at it...

I was just curious, and this may be a stupid question, but can I use the license obtained with a Windows XP upgrade, on a full install of XP? It just seems foolish for me to keep installing Windows 2K, then use the Win XP upgrade CD....

Seriously, am I being an idiot or is there a lack of PC games comping out? I mean, it all seems to be console related. Where's Gears of War for PC? Isn't that on the Unreal 3 engine? I'm seriously starting to freak out, not that I have time to play any games, but the last awesome PC game...

Ok, Yes, I admit it, I miss my pretty little wizard that comforts me at night when I install software, but what the hell! I've spent 2 hours so far trying to get tunderbird to run on Fedora Core 4, so far the only thing I've accomplished is frusterating myself and extracting some files. I...

Is it possible to have multiple subnets over say one WAP, or one wireless network? Can they be kept seperate if possible? I'm quite a n00b when it come to wireless.... In my line of thinking, I wouldn't see it as possible, but hey, I'm just throwing the question out there....
