Checking or un-checking "Show Filename" seems to have no effect; it's always shown.

Doh! A help file, the last place I would have looked. :D

Is there any way to pause the slide show?

It's started. The President is going to be speaking in a half hour.

Here is the latest roadmap. It does show a 400MHz FSB Barton 3200+ coming out in Q2.

It should be fine. I have mine in an old, poorly ventilated Inwin case (circa 1997), in a room with high temperatures (currently about 80F), and it keeps the CPU cooler than the retail heat sink.

It is just the DVD support that's missing, afterall. I tried it last night, and it installed fine.

If it's only the DVD support that's missing, then that's fine. I like PowerDVD better, and their DVD player messed up my ability to play any MPEG-2 file on my system. I'll have to give it a try later tonight.

ATI is charging $9.99 + shipping to get the latest MMC 8.1 on a CD, except for those with a Radeon 9x00 series card (who get to download if for free). :evil: Why do companies do this? http://www.ati.com/shopati/promotions/mmc81.html

I just tried this on a CD-RW and burned a test file that was buried 12 directories deep. It gave a warning saying that it was over 8 levels deeps, and are you sure you want to do this. I said yes, and it burned fine, and I was able to read the the file once it was done (on XP, I haven't tried on...

Is that $150 for a ±RW drive? If it is, I don't see how they could sell one for less than half the price of the Sony, although I would love for them to do that. $150 for a drive that is only +RW or only -RW is much more realistic, in the short term.

Nero has an option to "Allow pathdepth of more than 8 directories" under the ISO tab of the write CD dialog. I haven't tried this option myself, so I don't know how well it works, or what OSes can read it.

The Inquirer has an update to the problem, which seems to have been caused by some manufacturers leaving out a jumper from the reference design. Nvidia put out a BIOS update that will fix the problem.

It was slow the past couple of days, but seems fine today.

Team number 10047. There's a 12 page long thread here, where most of the F@H talk has been on this site.

Here is another person who fell for the scam, and lost $750,000 ($250,000 of which was money that he scammed from his friends, for which he's going to jail).

For my main system, I reboot for service packs, hardware upgrades, and thunderstorms. My other one is a dual boot with Linux and Windows, so it gets rebooted quite often.

Eugene put the results of a final version of the drive in the database, and it shows quite a bit of improvement over the beta. While the file and web server results are still dissapointing, in the SR High-End and SR Bootup tests, it's the fastest drive.

Yes, IPSec isn't in XP Home.

Fedex came very early today, so I got a chance to install one of these, this morning. I replaced a retail HSF for my Duron 850, that ran at an irritating 6250RPM. I have it clocked at 935, and my ASUS A7V133 reported the temperature as 59C (this board reports the CPU temperature about 10C above...

He obviously doesn't have pets or small children, or that wouldn't last two minutes. I didn't always keep the cover on my cases, but I do now, after my cat knocked over a full glass of soda onto my (thankfully) covered and running PC. I immediately shut it down, and even though it was covered...

It's Francz! You're zlipping.

There's no difference between cables for ATA 66/100/133. They're all 80-pin cables.

According to this article at the Inquirer, it's Gigabit. However, they don't say if just one is, or both.

Does either A or G have stronger encryption than B, or are they all weak?

I added 2 part time machines to Cliptin's totals.

Autoscroll and Optimoz (mouse gestures) are also very good. Also, Adblock doesn't prevent ads from being download (at least not in it's current form), only from being displayed, so it doesn't save any bandwidth.

There's no reason why you can't run DDR 400 at any speed slower than 400MHz, if you want to keep the memory and FSB synced.

I plan on testing and writing a review of Gentoo Linux in 2-3 weeks, depending on how much time I have. It should appeal to you, JTR, since it can be completely optimized for your hardware, but I'm not sure what the install process would be like with a modem.

A Nigerian diplomat in the Czech Republic was murdered by someone who fell for the infamous spam.

I'm guessing that Robert Moses isn't one of your favorite people either. :)

Freshmeat and Sourceforge are good places to start. Cheapbytes, or you could tell me which one you want, and I'll download it and send the CD to you. Go to Distrowatch to compare the many different ones. If you want a browser without an e-mail client built-in, go for Phoenix. Not yet. Many...

From the Inquirer:

Now it may be up to 8 million cards. A few years ago, my parents had $6,000 attempted to be charged to their account from Turkey. Their bank called them before it was it was approved, so the thieves never got the goods, and the account was immediately closed.

They're actually located less than a mile from where I live, in my hometown.

Finally, the snow has stopped here! Over the past two days, most of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast in the U.S. received between 18-36 inches of snow (my town received about 23"), which made many roads in the area impassable and affected air travel all across the country. It was snowing at the...

Bartender, what did you put in that drink? I've been sick for the past three days. Don't make me send the health inspectors in there! :lol:

Ah. OK. :D

Mwave has the Epson Perfection 1260 for $72.54 before a $30.00 rebate. Epson drivers are very good, and even their low cost scanners provide more than adequate results. :?:

I've also seen many XP machines without passwords. Not only do most people not know how to create one, many don't want one. They say that it's annoying, and don't want to spend the 2 seconds it takes to type in a password.

It's Friday night and Valentine's Day, so of course I have time. Sigh. :( :)

Does anyone have any guesses on how long it'll take to see sub US$100 DVD-(+)RW drives? With the CD-RW market already saturated, manufacturers will likely try to make their money in the DVD market.

I haven't tried it yet, but I imagine that most of the size comes from the textures for the game samples.

For those of you that want to benchmark your video card, the new 3DMark03 from Futuremark (formerly MadOnion) has been released today. It's available for download here and comes in at a whopping 171MBs. It also needs to have DirectX 9 installed to run.

Looks good, Doug. Buck, would the announcements be limited to storage companies, or would it include other companies, like Intel, AMD, etc?

Yes.

I also think the third option is best.

Eugene posted this on the front page of SR: If it's really out in 1-2 months, and the performance is comparable to 10K SCSI drives, I'll be very happy.

Happy Birthday!
