I currently have a PC with a single SATA drive on an Intel 965 mobo that has matrix raid support. I'm wondering if it's possible to buy a 2nd identical (more or less) drive, create a RAID 1 array without reformatting or reinstalling vista. Has anyone tried such an upgrade? I'd like to...

Remember that most cards and switches are full duplex, so 100mbit limit is a per link and per DIRECTION limit.

I installed the new Satori 4 firmware on my WRT54GS linksys router. I enabled the PPTP VPN Server. Here are the settigs on the router: PPTP Server: Enable Server IP: 192.168.0.1 Client IP(s): 192.168.0.101-110 CHAP-Secrets: <blank> The question is, how do I configure my XP box to...

Can someone point me to a page where i can D/L the firmware for the WRT54GS? Are there any mirrors out there? -m

What does that mean? If I get PC133 sodimms instead of PC100, then it won't work? I guess I'm not sure, what part of the memory spec makes the module incompatible. Desktops are clearly more lenient with the type of memory you feed it. -m

Yup. 128 only (either slot) - boots fine 128 in 1 + 256 in 2 - memory size reduced 256 in 1 + 128 in 2 - won't boot. 256 only (either slot) - won't boot

I got a handme down Dell Inspiron 3700. It has a P3-500 with 128MB of memory. Turns out it had a bad hard drive which was easy to replace. However, it desperately needs more memory. So I bought a 256 MB PC133 SO-DIMM module for it, and plugged it into slot 2. Here are the stats from it...

#1 and two reboots seems to have fixed it. Thanks guys.

I have an intel PERL 865 motherboard. I have 3 devices. 1) SATA WD HD 2) IDE IBM 60gig HD 3) Lito-On DVD/CD-RW #1 is on the primary SATA port. #2 is a Master on the Primary IDE port #3 is a Master on the Secondary IDE port. Here's the problem. THe IDE hard drive is stuck in PIO...

I've got XP Pro SP1 with all patches running on Intel PERLK mobo with 1 gig of DDR and P4 2.6C. The main HD is WD SATA 200 Gig and XP as well as all drives are running NTFS. Video is provided by GF3 Ti200, and the rest (audo/network, etc..) come from the mobo. Oh, and I did install the...

WOW. thanks.

I'm trying to explain to my friend how to replace his Athlon XP 2200 CPU. He can't figure out how the heatsink unhooks from the motherboard. ANyone know of any good documents with pictures or even small videos demonstrating that process?

Roughly half the time, when I insert a Compact Flash card into my USB reader, nothing happens. Usually the Scanner & Camera Wizard pops up letting you name and download your pictures. But what can I do when it doesn't? I have a scanner, so I try to run it from the start menu, it just tries to...

I want to buy an 802.11g WifFi card. Seems like all three are good brands. But I've had a dislike for LinkSys NICs. I haven't tried any of their wireless products yet, so any suggestions on which one to pick? Or which ones to avoid? This will be going into my mom's PC, so I'd like to avoid...

Any significant difference between the 7000-AlCu and the 7000A-AlCu? Or is the assembly just different to make it fit more CPU's?
