Well, thanks to a significant and most generous amount of time and effort by or most knowledgeable member, time, my stuff is running almost as it should. About every 30 minutes or so it drops for about 15 seconds (just enough time to screw everything). I haven't been aboe to verify whether the...

Just grabbed "Zen Help Desk" (the first link) and had it up and running in about 1 minute. It was fully customised 10 minutes later. I love CSS. Thanks Handy!

I'm looking at doing something similar, setting up an intranet just for handling helpdesk calls. Anyone have a free, pre-made solution? Hosting it via IIS is a must, tying into either MSDE or Access would be ideal.

I recently got one of these it rocks. The only problem is it uses a format other than NTFS or FAT32, so you can't use the USB drive directly with a PC after the mandatory format. Network speeds were OK, though I didn't run proper benchmarks before I gave it to my GF. It manages streaming DIVX ok.

This is the longest I've lived anywhere since I left home (1.5 years), my average is around 8 months. Much of my time was spent "couch surfing" with "girlfriends", and actually living with actual girlfriends. This is the first time I've been on my own in that whole time. I haven't had my name on...

Unless you plan on using a program like daemon-tools, or like backing up your games. Last time I checked, there was no way to bypass the copy-protection for DVDs.

Not that my sister is living in Ithaca I get all the cold stories second-hand. That's close enough, thank you. You guys are frikin' nuts to live in such inhospitable environments. I had to wear a jacket last night...

Still 70F and sunny here...though the leaves have begun to change. I look forward to a good rainstorm this weekend.

Very funny. I like this bit: "But then again, I guess it would make a great tank stand."

Yeah! In sunglasses, too. :o

Though I can certainly appreciate guidelines preventing the "downhill slide" of SF into a pornographic madhouse, I feel that handy's ample warnings are enough to prevent such a slide into evilness.

I wish I had a better one, but the only ones I have are from my sis' wedding.

Well, 90% of the pics are busted, and I can't remember seeing any of them anyway. Here's one...

Very nice. That link is getting major hits?

Yeah, I guess that's where my problem is. In person I'm able to make a good case, but "spin" just isn't my thing.

Does that but the RedHill group at nearly 4700?

Just noticed your projector thread pushed you over. Congratulations!

Thanks everyone for the support and advice. My girlfriend and I have come to the conclusion that this whole long-distance thing is just too hard. Considering that she is a molecular biologist in the middle of publishing a paper, that means I move. Up til now, I've been flying up there every...

Another manufacturer that I trust with a similar product is the InFocus LP640. It's actually $100 less.

Ah, the things we do for love... So here I am trying my best to move to Eugene as quickly as possible. Setting up my business down here so that it can run itself a couple weeks at a time is easy, handing off my consulting clients to colleagues in the area is easy as well, but from what I hear...

A word about resolution: Your laptop is capable of changing to non-native resolutions, correct? If so, choosing a resolution that works best for your application might be more important than matching your laptop's res. What do you plan on doing with the projector? Depending on your useage...

I can see how this would be an issue. I currently have 10 tabs open (3 SF, 2SR, 2 SPCR, 2 /., and a gmail) none of which have killer graphics at all, but there goes 50MB of Mem and 42MB of VM. Though I did have a hard time getting it over 100MB, even visiting the NASA site with tab-happy...

I just upgraded to the newest version (4.something) and it's still working great. If you want more information, go to Jan's thread @ SPCR I am (kind of) interested in playing with some overcloacking potential here, but it doesn't look like multipliers above stock work? I take it the CPU is...

It interfaces perfectly with Outlook 2003 (Through the "tools" menu). That's good enough for me.

Decided to run the "20041108 Firefox/1.0 (MOOX M3)" build with flash click-to-view enabled....this rules.

Sweet. Is the stock 1.0 slow for me in any way? I doubt it. Did I just download the latest trunk build optomised for my CPU? You bet ;)

Pretty sure I'm too far south for even the most impressive displays...had a look last night and saw nuthin.

wow, that's powerful....

IMHO Antec has the bast tech support. 1. Actual techs answer their support line within minutes. 2. E-mail responses have ben within an hour. I'd call that a gold standard for those without support contracts.

Alright....so how can you ell you are getting a rev. E part?

It's a real shame consiering how little that game is played in the first place. I'm thinking f seting up some way to stop/start the service when the game is launched. I already launch the game via .CMD file (that also handles Daemon tools). I just need to look up the syntax and figure out how to...

err....or not? I am no longer able to ping any machines on the other end. I am still able to ping the internal IP of the opposite gateway wihout issue. Don't know what's going on right now...

I've had some REALLY stupid users revert back to IE after using firefox without issue. Their reasons were that firefox wasn't compatible with some -massively- spyware-riddled software that they insisted on using.

I'm afraid not. Here is the configuration I had. Router Internal IP: 192.168.0.1 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 DHCP Pool: 192.168.0.100-192.168.0.200 Servers Assigned IPs: 192.168.0.10-192.168.0.25 All systems have the same gateway and subnet mask. All are within the IP range...

Alright...well, I'm almost there. Configuration: Site 1 Linksys RV042 10/100 4-Port VPN Router (Firmware 1.2.3) Internet Connection: Full T-1 Internal IP: 192.168.0.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Site 2 Linksys RV042 10/100 4-Port VPN Router (Firmware 1.2.3) Internet Connection: Wireless Link...

Well, the majority of my folders were just taken offline. :cry: There is an incompatability between it and Star Wars: Battlefront. Levels take 5-10x longer to load with the client running in the background. It seems some of the portions of the app use "Idle" priority. :evil:

None of Zalman's "flower" series have fan guards. But the blades are actually sunk into the heatsink, so you'd have to stick your fingers down into the blades to damage yourself. Simply grabbing the heatsink is safe.

I have had significantly more data corruption on FAT32 than on NTFS. The biggest problems are on developer stations, where the system hard locks and can't be shut down properly often. Another one of my clients was using a power bar to turn on/off their PC, that caused me to have to do a...

I loved the first 3 movies, they were certainly my favorite films growing up. I went into #1 expecting more of the same feel, suspense, excitement, and quality - Dissapointed. I went to see #2 expacting maybe not the same excitement or feel, but still a good film with characters I was familiar...

Good stuff, provided it doesn't snap my motherboard in two... I'm looking forward to removing the fan and ducting it to my PSU intake.

Yep, my expectations have dropped so significantly that I might enjoy this one...

It is very helpful, thank you, but it's a bit late for it to be making sense. Basically what you are saying is that the VPN gateways and all the machines on each end can exist within the same network, and that the gateways themselves will identify what traffic needs to be passed through the VPN...

So simply changing the subnets to 255.255.0.0 would suffice? I was under the impression that you wanted them in different subnets so that the traffic would go though the default gateway.

So, am I missing something here? I have 2 Linksys/Cisco NV042 VPN routers, each connected to a high-speed internet connection with a static IP. Each router has been competely configured and connects to the internet flawlessly. Each has been configured with a "Gateway to Gateway" VPN link and...

I noticed newegg's scarcity of video cards myself the other day, don't know what's going on. IIRC, if the board supports AGP 4x, than any 8x cards will also work. The funky incompatabilities were all between 1x, 2x, and 4x.

Indeed. I've found a few case manufacturers "cheat" on the underside of the board; using either shorter headers or sinking the mounting points below the level of the sheet metal. Either brings the bottom of the board closer to the grounded sheet metal of the case.

Can't really speak WRT to brands, as I only use Sapphire or ATI, but I can definatly reccomend staying away from the "LE" cards. From what I've heard, they are significantly crippled variants.

When I worked for CNet in SF my office was next door to a mirror of Download.com, it was nice having that locally. I dont know what the broadband connection was, but it was faster than my hard drive.

Broadband Bliss: T-1 -> Cisco Router <-Crossover Cable-> this laptop :mrgrn:

I'm glad I don't live in a swing state...much less to worry about ;)
