    SATA stopped being detected by BIOS

    After a week of troubleshooting internet/network issues for a client, I finally had everything just about fixed. I had noticed last week that the server didn't have adequate cooling so having made a note to install a new fan, I figured I would do it while I was finishing up the networking issues...

    Busted ac adaptor? can I fix it?

    Thank you all very much for your replies. Fortunately I was able to get a replacement because the router is provided by the client's ISP so a quick call early the next morning and they had a replacement before noon. Of course, this is only the beginning of my problems:disgust:, but this...

    Well since the world hates me, after spending a day trying to fix some networking/internet issues for a client I finally appear to be in the clear when the DSL router won't turn on. Now, I had just had it functioning not 10 minutes ago because I had spent hours trying to get into it w/o the...

    Best Encryption Algorithm

    I'm just doing public key/private key. Like I said I'm simply using this for my new PGP key. Again, I've narrowed it down to AES, CAST, and Twofish those are my only options (I'm using PGP 8.0). Of those three, how do they compare with regards ot speed, strength, etc. And which, in your...

    Best Encryption Algorithm

    Since I'm just using it for PGP, there won't be any problem with implementation. I just wondered the details of each like speed and security.

    Best Encryption Algorithm

    I'm creating a new PGP keyring and am trying to decide which encryption algorithm would be best. I'm trying to decide betweencurrent AES standard (Rijndael)CASTTwoFishI know twofish was one of the original candidates for AES, so I'm assuming since it wasn't selected that it is inferior to...

    Power problems... mobo, jumpers?

    Here are some specs to reference: Duron 1.2Ghz 256MB 2100 DDR Asus A7v266-E Here's the deal: A while ago this box just stopped powering up. The power supply made a quiet clicking sound and nothing on the system worked, including the system power led on the mobo. I naturally replaced the power...

    ecsk7s5a mobo from newegg not working?

    I was having the exact same problem. Tonight actually, and I was just about to post something in the forum when I realized the problem. I'm not sure if you have this, but there is a loose sheet of paper in the users manual that fell out of mine. It informs you that the CMOS jumper is set to...

    AIW or VideoCard & TV Tuner?

    I am replacing my current video card which has a tv tuner, and I want to retain TV viewing capability. I'm also on a budget of ~$130 and I need some opinions here. What should I get? -an AIW card: 8500DV is way too much, bu the 7500 is right at my price limit. -a Gf4 440MX and a TV Tuner -a...

    What is wrong with this Javascript?

    Might I also suggest that you use arrays and loops instead of declaring each integer variable: <script language ="Javascript"> var arrSquare, arrCubic; arrSquare= new Array(11); arrCubic = new Array(11); for(var intCount = 0; intCount <11; intCount++) { arrSquare[intCount] = intCount *...

    ASP causing http500 errors

    I hope someone is familiar with ASP and W2k Server. :) I'm testing a new web site on my host's servers. Recently everytime an ASP page contains an error I get a 500 Internal Server Error page instead of a VBScript error message giving me the line number, cause, etc. I've talked to my host and...

    A7N266-VM POST Problems. PLEASE HELP!

    Thanks MechBGon. Of course it would be something as simple as that. You were right, the manual had the jumpers pictured incorrectly; so I thought they were set properly but in fact they were not. Once I put them in the "proper" positions all was fixed. Thanks again, and sorry for being so...

    Video Card Selection

    Yes, I'm aware of that. I forgot to mention that my current card is AGP, so I would not be replacing it if I were to get the Geforce. Well, I need to upgrade my PC desperately and I can afford very little. I'm definately getting a bigger HD, probably a WD400BB; and I need a UPS. If I can afford...

The AIW Radeon 8500DV is slightly out of my price range. I was thinking of getting a PCI GeForce4 MX4400. I know it's...
