Maybe you should invest in an ATX12V PSU?

I used R-Studio to recover some of the data which I do not have backed-up somewhere. I have an older version, however, that's a bit quirky.

In a fit of stupidity, I deleted one of my partitions yesterday. It's not anything of grave importance -- nearly all of it can be restored from elsewhere -- but I'd like it back. I was able to resurect the partition, but Windows does not recognise the filesystem, which is NTFS. The filesystem...

Television? The word is half Latin and half Greek. No good can come of it. - C.P. Scott

Maybe he's talking about the Xcube or Playbox?

Either he's dead or my watch has stopped. - Groucho Marx

It's crap. Zero backwards compatability. You can't make images outside of Windows.

Let me know, or it might go to someone else....

How many pins? High density or *very* high density?

I don't have a problem with this. Windows XP sometimes does, but the hardware certainly doesn't.

PIO mode pretty much kills performance when using the optical.

Uninstalled it today, and the blue screens are now gone....

It's amazing how little people think about how their children or grandchildren will think about what they are doing now....

The reason why servers are still holding on PCI-X, while desktops are moving to PCI-E is entrenchment. PCI-X is a proven, stable technology with lots of cards. You don't want any big surprises in a high-availability server!

This just goes to show, purchase your eggs before they hatch!

I've had issues with a all of boards that I frequent which are based upon vbulletin. I also dislike their layout.

What seems to be happening is that I'm getting lots of file system errors, causing corrupt files, and then the crashing, etc. I've also noticed that Ghost is slower than molasses in January when imaging to or from an array. Approximate half as fast as a single disk on a regular SCSI...

It's still just Mosaic with a load of crap hung off of it.

Actually, that little nlite app caused by hours of pain because it jacked the SP2 CD that I had created. No more of that.

This is still happening. And when I try to Ghost a fresh install to an array, it barfs on first boot, usually with a driver error. Any ideas?

PCI-X is backwards compatible to 64bit/66MHz, as well as all the way to 32/33

I'd like pom poms. Thanks.

I basically have three routers chained together. My DSL modem acts as a single-port router. Attached to that is my regular wired router with the desktop computers and print server. Attached to that is the wireless router, which also has four wired ports. As pointed out, the key is to set...

Western Digital... We'll replace it fast!

The difficult part is hardware; appropriate software can be had for cheap or free. Do you have a plan for connecting the VHS player to your computer?

Colourless green ideas sleep furiously. - Professor Noam Chompsky as an example of a gramatically correct sentence that makes no sense

Technology has advanced since the early eighties. A punch card machine can now fit in your hand. Of course, if you want to read more than on card at a time, it might be tough....

Generally, it's more cost effective to buy a replacement UPS than to replace the battery. APC has a trade-in program.

My feeling on this is that it might be better to install a punch card reader/writer than to use one of these.

I liked this line: So this means that the drives will not have reliable quality?

I'll believe it when I see it. Now that I have a DVD burner, however, the need for lots of online storage space is decreasing....

This time, it's true. http://www.snopes.com/photos/signs/charley.asp

This is just document management. The government is only adding reporting If you didn't have metadata on your financial documents before, then a problem was waiting to happen. While malfeasance was the reason for the legistlation, mistakes are the more likely source errors. Errors in...

The user chooses the number of digits to enter. The fact of the matter, however, is that, if you enter a good portion of your credit card number, and your computer is compromised, the numbers are right there for the taking. Symantec suggests five or six, as a reasonable compromise between risk...

Laws were made to be broken. - Christopher North

I agree that this is likely coincidental. Five digits isn't that hard to randomly come across on a single computer.

Back when I did everything by hand on Unix, I always used Xemacs. It's automatic tag balancing is hard to beat. And it's free!

I haven't a clue what you posted means.

I was, uh, hoping for a bit of accounting....

No matter how thin you slice it, it's still baloney. - Alfred Emanuel Smith

I'd be interesting in seeing a list of those that fall into each of those categories. I can't see any correct hardware implementation being incapable of reasonable throughput.

What was your total for computer + upgrades?

Isn't Seagate losing money again? I honestly think that it's more likely that companies will simply leave the business rather than merge or sell.

Please stop sharing. Now.

The fact that drivers without licenses must drive carefully in order to not get caught without one is a really good reason to have a licensing system. We just need to keep more bad drivers from getting licenses, so that they are forced to drive carefully....

Everybody but Maxtor is a conglomorate. I feel that these companies are least likely to leave the market -- but also less likely to innovate. Their major customers are themselves and OEMs.

Perhaps not true, but entertaining, nonetheless: http://www.picpix.com/brad/pic/0067k8fw
