[H]ello, Looking for some opinions. I've gotten a mixed bag from just searching around. The canned questions don't really apply to my situation. Please move if this is the wrong place. I'm trying to decide if going SLI will improve my gaming or if a sandy bridge build is in order. After...

Check your video card for any blown or bulging capacitors

I'd say either the router has malfunctioned (you could try updating firmware and/or clearing settings back to factory defaults) or there is some broken security software running that's blocking DHCP

If I were to make a list of potential causes for this problem NAT/firewall blocking in the ISP's cable modem would be at the bottom. If you have any security software running try uninstalling it completely. Sometimes a program like Norton will leave behind a networking component that will mess...

Did you remember to plug in that extra 4pin power connector next to the CPU? Sounds stupid but that's the first thing that popped in my mind when you were describing the problem.

This is caused by physical hardware problems. Either the cable, NIC, or port on your router are bad/flaky. To test run a continuous ping. start>run>cmd>ping -t google.com it will ping until you stop it with ctrl+c. That will give you a better picture of your packet loss. Start by...

I'm trying to play Madden with a hacked Xbox S controller plugged in via USB. I'm using hte latest driver. Everything works fine until I try to assign an action to the trigger keys (buttons 11 and 12). The game crashes back to desktop. This controller works great for every other game I've tried...

Ahh, found it. C:\Users\Public

Anyone know? This is pissing me off.

I don't think it would make a difference. I usually stick with Motorola.

Your modem is probably crapping out when transmitting. I would contact comcast for a replacement. You will probably have to pay for it.

Would a pair of 1720's and a 2950 be enough to get me through the CCNP?

:confused:

Shitty DSL is leaps and bounds better than the world's best dial-up. Just do it. :cool:

on-board nics are usually shit and should be disabled in bios in favor of a pci hardware nic. since it's onboard though, the driver will play a huge role in how well it operates. Check your mobo manufacturer's website for updated drivers. don't use the crap that comes in a windows update...

Have you tried changing which channel it uses?

bump to sell this thing to help pay tuition. Giving [H] first crack at it before ebay. Please give this sub a good home.

A hardware modem with onboard controller and DSP is the way to go. They are usually 50-100 bucks. If you have dial-up it's foolish to NOT invest in a good modem. That would be like trying to drive a Geo Metro through the harshest country terrain with no roads. You'd be better off spending a bit...

verify the correct ip adddressing is taking place. i believe with ICS, NIC 2 (or the one that's connected to your network) should default to 192.168.0.1 and start assigning addresses via DHCP.On PC2, when you do start>run>ipconfig /all it should return info. you should be on network 192.168.0.0...

apt-get will change your life

don't I need gnome and X to run vmware?

Just thought I'd update this. Ubuntu installed without a single hitch. I got smartstart 5.50. Booted into it and selected the system configuration utility. I then modified my Operating System setting to the Unix category and selected Linux. I booted into the dapper drake cd and installed...

Cool, I looked before but didn't really find anything defnitive. Not sure if ubuntu is the best but it's what I'm most familiar with. What SHOULD I use?

Hello, I'm currently running a proliant 5500 server (quad xeon, 2.6gb of ram, 3 18gb scsi raid 5) and I'm wondering if anyone has successfully installed ubuntu on this hardware. The smartstart cd only supports Redhat 7.0 or SuSE 7.0 or so it says. Will ubuntu even install? I basically...

Sounds like it might be a botched SP2 install. I would start troubleshooting this by obtaining the latest drivers for the wifi card from the manufacturer's website. There maybe some incompatibilities with the new way SP2 deals with wireless.

try using the FQDN

I prefer setting up multiple port forwards in the router to the dividual boxes. You need static IP's or dhcp reservations for this to work reliably. Ex. 3392 goes to 10.0.0.2:3389 3393 goes to 10.0.0.3:3389 3394 goes to 10.0.0.4:3389 Then if I need to remote into workstation 10.0.0.3...

most dsl problems are caused by wiring/filter issues. When your DSL stops working does it lose sync? There will usually be a status light on the modem to indicate sync on the phone line side. Try clearing the line of all telephones and phone-like devices. If the modem loses sync try clearing...

bypass your router and plug your computer directly into the modem. you didn't give any information about what type of internet access you have. wireless, cable, dsl, etc.

Retrofitting a building does indeed suck. My recommendation is to spend more time worrying about the conduit and access panels instead of what cable you use. Cabling and technology is always changing but the conduit doesn't really move that much. I would just use cat6 because it would be...

Paid over $500 for this monster a few years ago. Selling now for $249 plus shipping. Dual 2 ohm voice coils. 2.5 cu.ft. enclosure. Requires only about 1000 watts to reach maximum excursion. Selling because I only have 600 watts to give it and it takes up all the trunk space in my shiny new...

Thank You. I'm glad I'm not the only one who is annoyed by this lol There MUST be a registry key or some group policy setting to change this behavior.

I'm setting up a test samba server in freebsd. The server works fine but say I do this: \\bsdbox\share1 enter username and password test1 testpasswd <ok> yay I see share close window setup a second user in freebsd and add to samba but don't give access to share1 \\bsdbox\share1 I see...

anyone?
