Hello, I'm looking for a graphics rendering package for our webserver with the following requirements * Open Source, but we will consider commercial products * Line and bar (horizontal/vertical) graphs. * Option to zoom in on selected areas * Ability to save images * Our webserver is...

I've had an odd issue creep up only within the past two weeks. Everytime I go to turn on my computer, the first press of the power button does nothing. Only when I press it again does the computer turn on. I've never encountered this before. Once the computer's up, everything seems fine. No...

Thanks for all the input and suggestions guys! If the limiting connections tweak doesn't work, I'll look into the Dlink router.

I've had this problem for awhile now, and I don't know how to solve it. I have several systems connected to a Linksys WRT54g router running Hyperwrt 2.1b1 + Thibor15c. My computer is connected via ethernet cable, while the rest are over WiFi. Whenever I have torrents running (uTorrent 1.7.7)...

Interesting. I do have a custom theme running (Code Opus). That may have something to do with it. But in any case, I ran an ad disabler batch program, and voila, Yahoo Messenger 8 doesn't crash anymore! And as a bonus, no more ads either. I need to find one that works with Yahoo Messenger 9, and...

Hmm, I will defintiely have to try this. /searches google.

For the past week on my XP system, Yahoo Messenger (the latest available version) has been crashing right after it connects. I can see my online contact list briefly before the program just closes. No error messages. None even in Event Viewer. I've tried reinstalling, but it still crashes. I've...

I just built a new computer (E4500, Abit IP35-E, Airlink 802.11g) with Vista Home Premium installed, and I'm getting random loss of Internet access. The WiFi tray icon still says I have Local and Internet access, but I can only see the other computers in my network and not the the Internet (for...

Short version: Does Comcast block Mac Addresses? Long version: Yesterday, I thought my Comcast High Speed Internet connection went down. I thought at first it was Comcast having issues, but I first tried to rule out a problem on my end. I connected the cable modem directly to my computer...

I recently installed (and activated) XP on computer A, and Vista on computer B. For reasons I do not want to get into here, I want to reinstall the OS's on both computers, but this time have XP on computer B and Vista on computer A. Will I have problems with activation from Microsoft? I have to...

This is a longshot at best, but I'm asking hoping for a solution to this problem. I recently installed Vista on my sister's computer, and thus far everything has been smooth except for one thing. She requires VPN to log into work. They use Array VPN SSL, which requires you to log into her...

Anyone have any recommendations for WiFi cards (PCI, USB, interface doesn't matter too much) to get for a new system I'm building? I would like one that supports 801n, but not entirely necessary. I just want one that's reliable under Vista. I had an older Netgear card that had issues under XP...

Hmmm, $169 for HD3850 (newegg) might be slightly out of my price range. But the 8600GT's look promising. Thanks. Anyone else with any other suggestions?

I'm building an E4500 system for my sister to replace her old 500Mhz celeron rig. Right now I'm stuck on what PCI-e video card to get. Preferably I want to keep it under or at $100, but I can go above that if a much better bang for the buck is to be had. The machine will be very light on gaming...

After reading this forum and various reviews, I'm pretty much sold on getting the Vantec Nexstar3 HD enslosure along with a Samsung Spinpoint T 150GB drive. My only concern is heat. The Nexstar doesn't seem to have any ventilation (that I've seen from the pix)... so will the HD stay cool enough...
