    Snow Leopard Install/Reactions Thread

    Also, strangely, I went from 126.83 GB free to 144.62 GB after install. That seems like a really high amount of freed space, I'm not sure what the hell it could be from. But I'm not complaining.

    Snow Leopard Install/Reactions Thread

    Running a mid-2008 flavor black macbook (2.4 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB HD, crappy Intel graphics).. I have installed it as of about 1.5 hours ago.. ran all my major programs (R, Kinemage, Handbrake, etc.) that are not considered 'mainstream' apps.. they all seem to work fine so far. Kinemage is a...

    Can't get wireless card to work under Windows server 2008 under bootcamp

    I thought that was only the MacBook Pros in the most recent generation, but my mistake. Thanks. EDIT: So, apparently you have to go to 'Server Mananger' (starts automatically), select 'Add Features', enable 'Wireless LAN service' then restart and all works.. wow can't believe it took me...

    Can't get wireless card to work under Windows server 2008 under bootcamp

    Nah, I downloaded the 32 bit version. The OS boots fine and everything else works.. I don't think that a 64 bit version would even boot on a 32 bit?

    Can't get wireless card to work under Windows server 2008 under bootcamp

    I have the 'newest' black macbook, purchased Aug 2008. 2.4 Ghz, AirPort Extreme card, don't think there's anything else to know? As numerous people have, I picked up Server 2008 for free as a student so I can run some fun engineering programs.. I'd like to just boot it through Boot Camp, its...

    Computer locks up, not sure what the cause is

    Yeah I realize that seems obvious, but why would the harddrive light stay on if its a RAM problem? I had another thing happen last night that hasn't before - while running Ubuntu, I woke up and found the expected harddrive light constantly on. However, this time the mouse was still...

    Computer locks up, not sure what the cause is

    So, starting about 3 weeks ago, my computer started to randomly lock up. The hard drive light stays on constantly, and the entire computer is unresponsive. I have to force it off by holding the power button and restart it. I dual boot with Windows XP SP2 and Ubuntu 8.04 .... At first, I...

    How do I create a house network that can support 50+ people?

    I live in a house with 50 people up at college, and our current internet system is absolutely miserable. We use Linksys routers that can run on phantom power through the ethernet line. So, from this, we have the infrastructure set up to have a wireless network in the house. The problem...

    what rights does someone who has a song written about them have?

    there was a song written recently about a friend of mine that has some intensely degrading lyrics on it. The song, including the lyrics page, specifically references first names and dates to this person. Its not a song that could be "generic". Is there any right that person has over the song...

    Olympus Stylus 300 vs. 410

    Hey guys I'm looking to purchase a digital camera for my girlfriend (yes, we've been going out for awhile). She's a pretty casual shooter, but I'm also very discerning. I'm trying to decide between the two.. its about a $100 difference from prices I've logged in ($150 at circuit city for the...

    Questions about a Dell Inspiron 6000

    I was just wondering if the videocards are interchangeable.. for instance if I bought it with a 64MB or 128MB card and later wanted to upgrade to a 128-256MB video card... is the pci express slot universal? How about the RAM? Is it cheaper to buy the 1 512MB stick and then just order a second...

    Problem with ATI CCC after installing SP2..

    Well, would you care to elaborate for me? I don't really know how to go about fixing this.. I have tried reinstalling both parts, that doesn't seem to work. It must be within the .NET... would SP2 corrupt that? even so, I reinstalled it. Ah! Lemme know.. -Dave
