I am trying to connect two computers together that both have Windows XP Home Edition. I want to connect both ethernet cards together using a crossover cable. I do not have a hub.
I have already connected both computers with the cable, and the green light comes on in both computers. However...
Do you know of a way to mod a regular CPU powersupply so it will deliver current even if there is no motherboard attached?
I am trying to setup a sever-rack case to do nothing but measure temperature and control a few fans, through a 5 inch bay multi-probe panel.
Thanks alot. I need something...
I overclocked my computer awhile ago. Things, recently, seemed to fall apart after I installed a antec tru power supply. I can't get to where I used to be.
At first guess is it the cpu, or memory?
I am doing a hardware upgrade for a friend of mine who is running Windows 98.
Basically we changed the motherboard from a socket 370 to a MSI socket 478. As well, we changed the proccessor from a Celeron 500 mhz to a Celeron 1.7 ghz.
Everything else stayed the same. When I connected everything...
I requested a Scandisk of my two of my partitions on bootup a few days ago, and since then, everytime I boot up, it keeps doing it over and over, even after it's initial completion.
Is there a way I can get rid of this scan request? I have tried scanning another drive, but that does not work.
I just got a multi-sensor display for temperature, voltage, fan-speed - I was wondering where the best place I should put the sensor to monitor the CPU temperature. I imagine sticking it between the heatsink and chip would not be best. Where is the best place?
Also, I have about 8 sensors...

What is a good site that lists and categories the various opensource programs available for free? Preferably the Linux programs that have been ported over to Windows.
How about sites that have all around solid programs available to be downloaded?
I have a ASUS P4B533-E motherboard. When I enable the onboard Intel LAN, there is a serious system slowdown. With it disabled and driver uninstalled, it is better. When I use the RAID function. I have a system semi-freeze for a couple a seconds every 30 seconds. I installed the FAST Track...
I am thinking of upgrading my Asus P4B533-E motherboard, to the latest BIOS to support my 2.4 proc's Hyperthreading ability. I was wondering what other's experiences were. Do you have to enable anything in the BIOS after you upgrade? Is there an across the board advantage of Hyperthreading?
I just got a new proc and motherboard, and I would like to overclock for the first time.
Read a lot of the old posts, but I still have a few unanswered questions.
My 2.4B has a 533 FSB and is of a BO vintage.
With my ASUS P4B533-E, how can I underclock the memory so it is not over-taxed as I...
I just bought a case that has a Temp readout on front. For the CPU probe, where exactly should I place it?, on the chip itself or on the heatsink, or should it be somewhere else?
Just bought a 2.4 P4, and Asus P4B533-E Motherboard, that I was hoping to put in a older Dell ATX case.
I already have a 12v 200w powersupply that I would guess is decent quality since it is a Dell of a good year vintage ('99). I live outside the US, and the available market PS are very crappy...
Is it alright to connect my dvd drive and cd-burner drive to the same IDE channel? I thought I read once that this was bad practice. I just bought a new 40X burner. I want to be able to copy on the fly, without making errors.
I am looking for preferebly free web hosting service that has a history of quality service. The reason I need it to be free, (just the web hosting, not the domain,) is that I need to present a webpage to an organization that may not like it, so I can't invest hard cash right away.
So if you...

I've been out of the downloading/sharing of MP3s loop since Napster was zapped a couple of years ago. Have any solutions of noteworthy cause exist these days? (No spyware please)
What do you use to get MP3s from the Net? Can you recommend any to me? I mainly look for music that is non-mainstream.
I want to buy a new AMD, and am looking for a quality case that can hold it and a few other peripherals.
Mainly, I want a quiet fan though. I would also desire a nice sleek design. Some of those silver cases look pretty snazzy.
Any recommendations, and good Mail Order places to buy it from...
Could someone lend me a hand and give me some info on using Norton Ghost. I don't have the manual. And I have no documentation with it.
