    Pop3 issues on mobile, but not PC

    I've been using easycgi for a few years now as both a webspace provider and an email provider. When I first started with them, I could check my email via pop3 on my PC, but not on my Smartphone.

    No powerup with some video cards

    My work computer's motherboard is an ASUS A7N8X (which is NForce2). I'm trying to test our game using various video cards. If I put older graphics cards in (by older I even mean GForce2/3), then it won't boot up. I say won't boot up - I actually mean won't power up. The power light comes on...

    Problem with Shuttle SN95G5

    I've recently bought a Shuttle SN95G5. I'm having trouble when the computer has been off for a while. When I turn it on, the fan kicks in as expected, but the power light doesn't come on. Also the hard disk light flashes quickly for half a second, then stops for about 2 seconds, then flashes...

    Broadband kickstart

    I'm using win2k. My computer is always left on, and sometimes when I get home from work, I can't connect to the internet, and I have to reboot to get it to work. Is there any reset command to get it working again without rebooting? Cheers, Dan.
