Sorry, I should have been more specific. Here's a much more detailed description of what's happening. I installed the JetDirect 170x on a LaserJet 3150se printer recently, since there is no longer a computer nearby it to act as a print server. My network is relatively small, with a maximum of...

I recently purchased a JetDirect 170x print server to use on my LaserJet 3150. I've spent many hours, and still can't get the thing to work with that printer. If I hook the server up to my 'ol DeskJet 660C, it works just fine. So why won't it work on the 3150 which is supposedly...

I've been trying for the past hour to figure out what this RAM is: KMM372F124AJ-6 I know it's manufactured by Samsung (from the label), and that it is 60 ns. What I'm trying to figure out is how much RAM this is, so I can determine whether I need to purchase an additional chip for this...

Another question - Would 64 meg of RAM be good enough to run, for example, a counterstrike server? Pentium Pro boards (especially the PR440FX) take EDO RAM, and I've got 8 16 meg chips, but the board only takes 4, so 64 meg would be my maximum amount. EDO RAM is too expensive to buy more right...

I guess I should add that I already have 128 MB of EDO RAM too... It'd be great to use all of this old stuff and put together a semi-decent game server. I'd really prefer to have this whole upgrade cost less than like $75...

I'm looking to set up a server for some LAN gaming, and was thinking that a dual Pentium Pro 200 setup would do the job. I'm looking for something easy and cheap, and something that can make use of my AT case - so it seems like this would be an overall good upgrade. I also realize that most...

I looked around on Usenet for a minute, and it *does* appear that the SB Live outputs too high of a voltage for most receiver's liking. In my search I also found a SPDIF to optical converter, which would definitely make the connection between the SBLive and receiver a safe one...

Be careful. Don't want to fry your receiver :). I don't think there are really going to be any issues...but don't take my word for it. I'm nothing more than an EE freshman who spends his time tinkering with electronics. I've sure fried a few things in my day :o!

<< Interesting. It's been awhile since I breadboarded anything - would a TTL OR gate keep up with the 48khz signal? The signal is 5v p-p, so that wouldn't be a problem. The other concern would be current draw - any idea how much SPDIF pulls? >> I'm not sure whether it would or not. I recall...

<< Side note: you can't use a Y-adapter to connect both your DVD player and SBLive into a single SPDIF input on your receiver (I tried for the heck of it and only one would work). You could always put in a switch (even a computer-controlled relay), but I lucked out and realized I had a second...

I have an HP 3150se (600 dpi Laser). It went for about $600 when I bought it several months back, and it's a great printer. A little slow compared to some other lasers, but the print quality is excellent, and overall the machine is great. The scanner feature works great for making black &amp...

it's supposed to snow here (mich) tomorrow. I *used* to like snow, but now that it means walking through an arctic campus to get to class, I'm sure I'll like it a lot less.

I know what your problem probably is. Each Zip disk needs a unique label in order for the drive to recognize the change of disks. I originally had this problem too. What I did is just give each of my zip disks a number when I bought them, and have had absolutely no problems with it since...

Whoops, sorry about that... I was confusing the V6600/6800 with Pure/Deluxe. I'll have to look for that VirtualDub program, but I still need to find something that will let me broadcast video/audio at 100-700K/s rates.

Hi JeSpre, Thanks for the advice I thought the V6600 didn't have video in? What are you using the capture for? I wonder if it's the actual Windows Media Encoder that doesn't like to capture video. Audio capture works fine.
