    Partitioning a Macbook's HDD and Image Backups

    Yup, I emptied the trash before realizing that dragging the app into the trash didn't completely uninstall it. :( I will get AppCleaner, but for now I need to get rid of that orphaned icon in the App Menu!

    Partitioning a Macbook's HDD and Image Backups

    Hey guys, thanks for those tips! But I just ran into another noob problem with her Macbook. I installed a demo version of Hands Off (firewall) but didn't like it much so I dragged the app from Finder to the Trash (which I thought was an okay way to uninstall it). However, the Hands Off icon...

    Partitioning a Macbook's HDD and Image Backups

    My daughter graduated high school last month and is about to enter college. She really wanted a MacBook Pro and although I'm a PC-guy she's the 'light of my life' so I bought it for her. Before she leaves for college I would like to create two additional partitions on her Mac's HDD, one for...

    Don't Know PW for Dad's Laptop!

    That won't get it done because the pw will be required for the flash. Btw, the pw is recorded on a seperae CMOS 'EEPROM' chip. You have to first identify and then replace or re-program that EEPROM (and that job is best left to Sony or some other qualified shop!

    Don't Know PW for Dad's Laptop!

    That's really too bad, because without proof of ownership Sony won't unlock it for you (due to all of the stolen laptops/notebooks around). So again, I'm sorry to have to tell you that besides it's parts-value, it's useless!

    Don't Know PW for Dad's Laptop!

    FlyingPenguin~ Unfortunately, the reset CMOS trick doesn't work for laptops/notebooks! Even most super BIOS passwords won't work for laptops/notebooks! IntelConvert~ If you can find your dad's purchase receipt, then perhaps you can get Sony to help you. But they will require proof of...

    Which Socket 478 board is the best Asus has made?

    IntelConvert~ I wished you good luck because the very same problem has been flooding various forums for quite some time. Asus' P4C800 and P4P800 boards (in all of their variations) suffer from this defect. Rather then fix the problem, Asus justs replaces those failed boards under warranty...

    Which Socket 478 board is the best Asus has made?

    If price is of no concern go for the P4C800E Deluxe as it is based on the superor 875 (Canterwood) chipset, whereas the P4P800E Deluxe is based on the less capable 865PE chipset. Good luck, Aaron
