Tony some motherboards are a problem Hi I had a Soyo motherboard, that even though it said it supported 768 mb of ram, it just did not work, something wrong with the third ram slot. I tried all kinds of ram combinations, and ran memory testing dos programs, and that's when I finally figured it...

512 If IRC: 98 has addressing problems with over 512 MB??? I use 251 mb, or more, in a couple machines, so, would think 512 is a nice number to aim at. gs

Tannin: I agree "As a rule of thumb, I'm in favour of putting the pagefile on a seperate drive, even a moderately low-performance one, but it seems to matter less and less as we fit more and more RAM. Back in 16MB days, it was vital!" One of the machines around here is a P2 400 mhz, Intel...

and, where in all this did you put the pagefile? I've used a faster ide drive for a storage pagefile, on some machines, and been happy with it. Don't you think this is a better idea, even if the startup drive is an X 15? gs

different filters... http://www.aquahobby.com/products/emperor.html are the filters I'm using. I fill the plastic baskets with batting from the local fabric store, and use the thinest one avaliable. It's very cheap, and works great for polishing water. I use one 400 on my 30, which has a lot...

My luck Kyro 2 Guillemont didn't work under 98, great under 2000. Voodoo 5500 rocks, under both os, and, for the price, was the steal of the century. Use it for dual boots on 98/2000, when I can find it. TNT 1 and 2 have worked very well, with no complaints. and the MMX, for a cheap video...

Tannin is speaking Australian, not english.... :mrgrn:

Plant tanks are tanks with actual, living, growing, plants The plants convert the waste and by products of the fish into, I believe, oxygen, and, feed themselves from it as well. The result is you don't have to change the water as often to get rid of the toxins that fish waste produces, since...

Listen to Tannin, and leave the guy alone :lol:

I just got a form letter, saying support for my printer was not avaliable on email, from HP, when the topic I entered was that their support for their other printers sucked. :cry: gs

Planets are a big deal... OK First off, learn about plants, and the benefits they have for tanks. Consider plant tanks, since they get rid of lots of toxins. Also, don't buy the fish you want to keep first. Buy something like tetras, that are good for breaking the tank in, and, then after the...

Leave him alone....!!!!! Guys: Storage review can provide a great crutch, in bad times, by being able to post quite a bit, and, have all of you as unpaid shrinks, and, a great support group. Besides, after all the lame, stupid idiots we had posting there, perhaps he will drive a few of them of...

ARS guys going to macs Some of the most staunch MSFT guys are buying ibooks, etc. It's amazing. Of course, the macs new os is a joy for people that really know their stuff, I guess. So similar, to well, BSD... :lol: Anyway, the guys now using macs are the most staunch advocates of windows...

Bad luck with cheap printers... Wow Tony. That's too bad, but not unusual from what I have noted in cheaper printers. I had a 540 Desk whatever, and replaced it with a 4000N. Driver support is not that good, and, they always come up with software updates, and such, that don't install, over...

cool :lol:

You do mean ide raid, I assume... gs :wink:

Panasonic, best reputation in Japan Hi Panasonic is considered one step above Sony, etc. at least according to my former wife, and family, that live in Japan. Just better quality products, more inovation, and a smaller company, I believe are the reasons. Plus, better prices, and much lower...

check dot pitches, it's a big deal... Hi check the dot pitches. Find the smallest ones you can, because the size tv you are looking at, may well have huge dots. I went with a smaller tv, because the dot pitch was so much smaller at the time I bought. I think mine is a 29 inch, but, going to...

rofl: right Tea rofl, very funny... :lol: [/i]

the lighter side, this isn't rocket science, and, hopefully, no one has long range weapons to attack other forum members. I deal with situations everyday, in which I had my 45 on my hip... This is light weight stuff. quit being sooooo serious about it. gs

SR's gs

Tunny act is the basis for public comment on how the citizen feels, about the actual harm the monopoly actions have caused, I suspect. In this case, it would give them much information about other monopoly actions, by MSFT, that they might be clueless on, and, it would give them a general feel...

Rather strange that not many people post at the Storage ... Review. After nearly 12 hours, I don't see any notices that posters have used the forum. Wonder if something is wrong with the forum software? gs

Do or watch I've found the downfall of watching sports is that usually takes time you could be doing them. Sometimes it can be used as a learning tool, but, this is rare. Usually it's living off someone elses accomplishments. gs

I like sports, but the IOC should be kicked out of the.... games, along with the NCAA, and the AAU. The governing bodies, as a general rule, are just way too corrupt for my taste. Start our own form of games... gs

This is where I really miss the archives from storage review I wish I had some of Tannin's well thought out rants to post to the DOJ, concerning the direction, and results of MSFT business practices...all gone... :cry: gs

To all concerned: Please take the time to contact the Department of Justice concerning the actions of MSFT, and the preposed settlement. The email address is: microsoft.atr@usdoj.gov I suspect that the expertise here could make a serious contribution to their decision. Only 3000 emails...

Welcome back Clocker :mrgrn:

Yes, I'm subbing in one of the local school districts What amazes me is we have such a diverse bunch of kids, that look like hoodlums, and gangsters, and some of them are, but we have relatively few fights, only one I've been a able to see, and, that they seem to get along far better then I...

If I can learn to like an ide drive, miracles do happen:-) As much of a scsi lover as I am, I still am glad that after all the debate, I can enjoy, and learn from Davin and Eugene, and even the Tornados of the world, and enjoy the fruits of thier labor, in this case, a Quantum LM. I guess this...

I stand corrected... Again, I stand corrected... :wink: So, you decided in a benevolent dictator? Intresting. Certainly the most efficent form of government. I like the idea of having one of the people that have gone through the crucibal of storagereview, together with all the others, as...

Time: Do you have a couple 55 gallon drums of oil I could... borrow? Or, how about an oil tanker??? :wink: OK: Let's try again. Inherent in democracy are flaws. My favorite posting name, in other places, is Socrates. Why? He asks lots of questions, and many of them so infuriated the...

Defining what you want can be difficult... Giver: Tannin's post obviously struck a core string in you, and your response showed emotion rather then a rational response to the situation. Odd that you haven't really been able to quantify what you desire in a forum... Please forgive me if this...

Professor Wizard, always welcome, and glad to have you :D gs

ROFL Great use of the english language, Time. I'm sorry, but that simply won't do :o At least some sort of constructionist view of the first amendment should be put forth, supporting your literal interpretation of the first amendment. Your concept, that no restriction is the best...

Cool it.... Tannin has written out a rather percise discription of what he desires in a forum. Since it's a private forum, that's the perogative of the owner. Unless being leaned on with federal funding, the Bill of Rights limits the states, and the federal government, not private group...

Seems to me, all those guys, Sean, and others, wanted me to leave storage review anyway. I think I'll lurk, and comment on occassion, but this is going to be my first stop. gs

your call... I have no doubt you can do it, and, medicine is really about helping people. In the time I have known you, through this forum, you have more then gone out of your way to help and aid others. It's clear you enjoy doing this with computers. How do you think you would feel doing...

For me, this is the best place I don't like putting my eggs in a broken basket. Suffice to say, that what made the Storage Review special is all the people that post here, Gary, Tannin, Tea, Flagreen, Mercutio, and everyone else. I'm reluctant to trust those guys again, after they 'lost' the...

Flat out lied too Mercutio: Keep in mind that USF Law School advertized the school as a Christian-Catholic school. The exact reverse is the situation, with an entire faculty that pretty much despises the Catholic Church, and has had wars with the jesuit priests that run the regular school. I...

Mercutio: Love you baby, but, go into it with your eyes open Nothing is more vicious, then upper level academics. Be what they want you to be, know what that is, lie to them, and screw em after you leave. GS

Medical school, like law school, is a run through the... bastards, with whips, who want to screw you. Is the end worth the means, and, can you put up with being whipped? gs

Tannin: no resale value. Due to financial problems, mainly due to MSFT, and their f....g management, my stock investments, using mom's money, that had in the past, provided income, are now gone. The second gen X 15's, and the current climate around here for server parts, made the drives...

Did I forget the 100k debt part...? Check on loan rates, and paybacks, etc. Thanks to MSFT, any income I had from my sort of trust, is gone. That's caused all kinds of problems. Father Bill wanted to approve 2% loans for school. Check on that... gs

Get an internship, and get an idea of what you are in for... Go to a hospital, and ask to follow a doctor you know around. Do you really want to spend 4-5 years to learn you can't stand the profession? My girlfriend is currently going through that with family law. She just isn't tough enough...

Why would you want to go to a tropical island(which tropical island, and forsake your wonderful place near Detroit? Seriously: check the tuition, the placement rates, the difference in degrees this school offers. Do your homework. Lower teir law schools are ok, but I'm not sure the same is...

Be careful... Having been really screwed by the policies, and professors, and support groups, at USF law school, I would strongly suggest you read carefully all of the academic requirements, the withdrawl policies, and the general tenor of the school. If you move down there, and you don't get...

Don't invest in something you won't be able to move to the.. new motherboards with. I'm stuck with a 33 mhz/32 bit pci bus, period. That's what my card works with, despite advertizing to the contrary. This kind of means, that barring major problems, I'll use this system for 10 years to get...

I know it SHOULD work, but, how much money do you have to... "The main advantage of running an IDE RAID0 setup for a while is that you are then extremely well qualified to tell people why they shouldn't ever use IDE RAID0." I resemble the above remark;-) Cheap ide raid cards pretty much...

What is a VIA sammuel? Never heard of that chip. I was hoping to stay with a mainstream, maybe BX chipset, and Intel cpu... gs
