I spoke to an amazon rep on the phone today (had a hell of a time finding a phone number) to setle a small billing issue and while I was at it I asked abut the gold box offers, and why I wasn't recieving any when I loged into amazon. What she told me was that gold box offers were a promotion...

ok so I decided to mess around with the MX 420 have a serious problem with it, my system won't post with the card installed. I have tried reseating it many times and the results are the same. I tried it in another system and that one posted perfectly. My system board is an abit KT7-Raid with a...

I currently have in my possetion an ATI radeon LE 32 meg DDR card as well as a visiontek geforce4 MX 420 now the radeon is obviously a fairly old card at this point, but it does perform well (its the one I am currently using). it has DDR memory which helps it keep up with todays graphical...

One more try then, has anybody else has this issue ? May try moving this thread to the ardforum to see if anyone there ma have an idea.

I doubt that it is the TCP/IP implementation because XP doesn't cause any issues with a standard CAT5 connection, not even on the machine in question. It seems to be the interaction of XP with the symbol wireless card and/or the wireless protocol that below the TCP/IP layer in the OSI model

I believe the topic is fairly clear but let me add a few details and some background. The hardware setup is as follows: IBM Thinkpad T20 with a symbol spectrum24 802.11b pcmcia adaptor What happens is that the laptop boots fine, the nic is powered up and all is well. Network and internet acces...

the drive you have has the standard connector for your adapter the ibm drives have an additional adapter attached to the drive itself when its in the laptop to make it easier to switch out between ibms if you look carefully you should be able to see a way to either pull of this adaptor or...

you are ofcourse correct about the multimeter part, but even if i did have one using it wouldn't help me much since i have no idea how to use it. Looks like i will need to refer to some of my electrical engineering and or computer engineering friends in school. As a chemical engineer i don't...

if it were in fact an IDE connector that would pose an interesting possibility of making the iomega hipzip (discontinued atm as i understand, which makes it cheap) a portable hard drive based player. Anybody have any ideas on how i would go abouyt testing this? wiring up the ribbon cable to an...

This is just a small project i wanted to do and had some trouble when i saw the actual connectors. I have an iomega hipzip MP3 player. When i took it apart the actual pocket zip (clik) reader seems to be a standard pcmcia type of card but slighlty modified. it doesn't have the standard 68 pine...

from my experience that is an error code for a memory failure either it isn't present, not properly seated, or simply faulty. all the different brands of boards i've worked with are consitent in this respect pulling out the memory and reseating it usualy solved the issue, or occasionaly...

THe dummies series. They have a book for that exam. My opinion is if you need some kind of refrence and there is a dummies book for it, get it !

Your laptop has 64 megs onboard and the sodimm you see there is a 64 not a 128. thats whyits a 320 meg max (256+64=320) you can pull out the dimm in there and pop the 128 in but that will only be a 64 upgrade as far as i know all compaq laptops have one dimm slot (at least all i have seen)

ummmm...... no OS2 was a sort of windows made by IBM in collaboration with micsoft. these days its as good as dead there are still loyal fans but the windows 9x and nt series have killed os2 if you don't know what os2 is then just choose non os2 and i belive you were refering to windows95...
