OSX has this great feature where you type the file name in the finder Window and it finds the file on your hard drive. Is there a plug-in that would work for this on Windows XP? It's very useful for when you are attaching files. Thanks.

I have a system with one of the 40GB Intel mainstream SSD's. The thing now needs more storage space. It's running server 2003. I will order one of the 120GB drives probably from Intel. How easy will it be to migrate this system to the new drive? Re-installing it is not an option. I'm...

PSP - Original model. I haven't used it in ages, but charged it up and ran around and shot some people in GTA. It works great. Comes with a hard case. Screen doesn't have scratches that I can see. Comes with 6 games Lumines, FIFA Soccer, Madden 2006, GTA, MLB and Wipeout. $110 Western...

I'm looking for a way to backup an IDE hard drive in a laptop to an external USB drive then copy that image back to a larger drive. Ideally, this would automatically increase the size of the three partitions on the first drive to meet the site of the larger one, but I can always deal with that...

I have a Dell D630 laptop with an 80GB Seagate hard drive. I recently bought an X25-M. I used disc-copy from EASEUS to do a bit by bit copy of the OS from the original drive to the new. The new disc seems to work fine and starts to boot, but then blue screens. Sadly, the screen doesn't last...

I have bought a new SSD and want to move the OS from my current laptops 7200rpm drive to the SSD of the same size. It is cut up into two partitions. The challenge is that the drive is running safeboot for encryption and it seems like I won't be able to remove it. This will likely be out of my...

I have a Dell D630 laptop that runs XP. It is cut up into two partitions. It's also running encryption software. I can remove this to copy over the data, but I'm wondering if I'll run into any issues with Windows XP and the X25. I'm looking at the 80GB version and it seems that it is not...

These are the enterprise/RAID level drives from Western Digital. I had 5 of these in a RAID array and no longer need them and have two left. One works fine, the other is in need of RMA. I will sell both for $120 shipped. That's $70 for the good one and $50 for the other. You'll have to...

This device seems like it would make for the ideal HTPC. Record any TV you want and do whatever you want with it. Is anyone using it? I'm looking to hear about setups that people might have.

I need to do some testing with a specific application on Vista. I have looked around for a trial version, but can't seem to find anything that works. The easiest thing for me seems to be to buy a trial version of the software and not activate it. Then in a few weeks when I'm done, just sell...

I'm getting a technet subscription and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on how I should set things up to play around with some administrative options. I have a standalone machine right now that I use for files and am looking at getting the cheapo server Dell has on sale right now. The...

I was looking at hooking up my ReplayTV 5040 again, but they want $13/month for a 4 year old device even to read the hard drive. I know there are used HTPC's around and for standard definition replay and probably capture they can keep up. How well in terms of fit and finish, commercial...

I was looking at a thread in the Mac forum that seemingly did not violate any rules, was civil and a completely useful discussion and it was locked. The last post on it yesterday. It is more than a tad frustrating when you come to a site, find something you want to disucss and it is locked...

When searching through the forums, there is a minimum of 3 characters needed to search for a term. In my case I'm searching for a canon s2, s3 or s5 IS camera. When I type in any of those search terms, I'm returned with every single canon listing and have to manually go through each one. This...

I'm curious how much a site like [H] would get from each banner ad that goes onto a page viewed. Anyone have any idea?

Does anyone know if you can sell XBOX 1 games for anything right now. I'm looking at buying this package here http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/ele/346898988.html but I have no way of knowing if that is a reasonable price or not. The guy says it costs this much given that the games are pretty...

Has anyone managed to get one of these playing VOBs across a network? I've googled this a lot and found nothing. I don't really feel like re-encoding a TB of movies just for this device. Thanks.

I have the following items for sale. All prices include shipping and are pretty firm. You can PM me if you feel otherwise or want to combine items. I'm not interested in trades. Please read the terms on the bottom of the listing. Antec Trio 550W power supply. Great power supply...

I'm running Server 2003 enterprise. I just did an capacity expansion of a new drive and now I'm wondering how I can expand the partition size of the partition. Is there an easy way to do this with built in functionality?

I read the FAQ for this forum and didn't get a clear answer on this and I think a change would be good in this regard. I got a message from a moderator about a post I made in a forum on here. What post? The mod didn't say. What thread? The mod didn't say. What forum? The mod didn't say...

I am looking for a freeware program that will burn ripped DVD's. Can anyone help? I've googled this to eternity and all I've seen is nero and more nero. Are there any free options for this?

I have a bunch of computers networked with a Belkin N1 router. My MCE laptop is a problem child. The other machines can see each other on the network, but this machine can't. It can ping the router, ping itself, but can't see anything else. I've turned off the firewall, but that doesn't...

ANyone checked out MS's express editions of visual studio? They offer them for free and have some damn impressive training to boot. It's complete with videos and examples. Great for anyone who wants to learn to program.

I shared a few directories on my server and now they're not available. The server is running server enterprise 2003. I looked at the file stucture on the actual server and it is still setup as it was and it was working before. Anyone know what might be going wrong?

I'm looking at a config by a reseller who builds custom machines. They have a machine with an OEM branded power supply for just under $2200. They offer a $75 upgrade for an Antec True Power 2.0 500W power supply. What do poeple on here think of that option on a computer of this grade? Is...

The OS is server 2003 Enterprise and I'm using it to store media files to share around the house. Should I just do NTFS and let the OS handle the share and deal with whatever file system it needs? I'm thinking yes.

I have a friend who has a degree, but it is looking to get some IT background. I've tried to get him to narrow his focus, but he's not sure if he'll more like programming, databases, etc. Does anyone know of any good private institutions that offer short (<1 year) programs that would give...

I had to RMA my RAID card so I figure that this is a good time to go to 500GB drives. The hard drives I'm selling have been used as part of an ongoing server project I've been trying to get done forever. They were used last summer in a RAID-5 linux software setup that I gave up on (6 hours of...

Does anyone know the ins and outs of Apple TV? Will I be able to use this with my home server running 2003? It seems like a cheap easy alternative to an HTPC.

I've seen people raving about these chips. Does anyone know how fast they are compared to Core 2 Duos when overclocked to 3.0?

I bought two used Raptors. One of them won't run on my motherboard, but when I plug it into my 3ware it comes up as a WD400BB. They look identical, but I'm wondering if this is an old fake drive. Strange.

I'm looking at using this software. The website notes that you can restore with 3rd party applications, but it doesn't list any. How would one restore an image file created by this program if their main drive died?

My laptop has been on and off crashing lately and so I'm running this program from a boot cd. Problem is, I have no idea how long it will run or what I should be looking for. Is anyone familiar with this? The thread should read MemCheck86+, but the mods have, quite very unfortunately, removed...

I'm running a server with a single Raptor. I'm planning on hooking it and another Raptor into my SATA RAID card. Is there an easy way to migrate the single drive to a RAID-1 array without losing the data on the drive? I can't find any specific info on this. The array does do OCE and it would...

I have an SI3112 card and a 3ware 9500S isntalled in my server. The motherboard isn't seeing either card. Nothing shows up in the Devices menu in System. Anyone know what I can do to make the system see them?

I'm selling an Lian Li V2000 server case. It is pretty much brand new. I ended up buying white SATA drive bays so I went with a different case. Message me if you're interested. $195 local pickup

I have a stacker 830 that I found for pretty cheap and it has 2 3 5 1/4 bay 5 drive hot swappable enclosures at the front. Each of these have a fan behind them pulling air into the case. The stacker also has one large exhaust fan at the back of the case. I'm wondering what else I should do...

Seasonic S12-500 power supply. Works great, runs quiet and is a great quality power supply. Price is $100 shipped firm. Thanks.

I have a modded XBOX and now the dashboard won't load. Does anyone know whats going on? Is it that the chip used to mod it has been broken? What can I do to diagnose or fix it?

I'm looking to build an HTPC with the smallest form possible. Something like a mac mini would be the ideal. The requirements would be that the HTPC can play HD content. It's going to boot from a flash drive and I'll keep the storage on a NAS. Can someone give me some recommendations? Thanks.
