    VBS script to email via SMTP

    Hey everyone! What I am trying to do is have people run this VBS which will pull down their username, computer name, computer SN, and take in a user defined variable (job number). It will then save this information to a file on the C: drive as "Computer Information.txt" with the format...

    ASUS M3N78-PRO motherboard.

    Well as it turns out it is impossible to install a RAID array and also have a single disk present on this MOBO. By turning SATA operational mode to RAID you turn ALL SATA ports to RAID, and because you cant have a 1 disk RAID (duh!) it wont allow operation. Solution: Well I'm not going to go...

    ASUS M3N78-PRO motherboard.

    ASUS M3N78-PRO motherboard.

    I have the ASUS M3N78-PRO motherboard and I am trying to setup a RAID 1 array. I had it working fine with my old MSI board. When I rebuilt my computer, I backed up all the info on the array, assuming I would have to recreate it. I have 2 identical WD 500Gig SATA drives. I have 6 SATA ports on...

    Vista Lag/Black Screen Issues

    well the first thing that comes to mind is to update the vid-card drivers, if they are totally up to date run a driver cleaner on the driver then re-install it. The fact that you have lag in video game also suggest to me that it may be something with the card. Any program that has that...

    Lost Flash Drive

    If word ever crashed on you while you were working on the file, there may be a recovery file in the following directory, otherwise you better get rolling on a redo. C:\Documents and Settings\"username"\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP p.s. I just realized that I was two days late...

    Cassette tape to MP3 conversion

    Any basic sound recording software would work to capture the .WAV file, just play the tape in a boombox or walkman or whatever, to the input or mic-in on the sound card, then a wav to mp3 converter program to finish it up. There is probably a better way to do this, however this 'would' work.

    Laptop LCD inverter

    ATOT, I have a laptop that i am fixing for a friend of mine. The laptop's screen comes on when you first turn it on, but only stays on for a few seconds, sometimes you can get it to flicker after it goes off. so I thought that the back light was still good. You can see the screen if you shine a...

    I bought a new DELL 2407WFP and it is on its way now, I also have an Ergotron monitor arm setup for it to mount on to. this brings it farther away from my PC then I think the supplied 6 foot cable will reach. (i am assuming it is 6 feet) i was looking on newegg for a longer cable (10 feet)...

    Take it apart and see if you can fix it, adding a clear window to it should solve your issue. :roll: Kidding of course, send that puppy back and get yourself a shiny new hard drive.

    939 upgrade

    I think I will just stick with whats I gots for now. Spend the money on 16, 12-packs of Corona p.s. I would buy a new monitor, but i figure a 20.1 inch viewsonic and a dell 2407WFP both on ergotron arms should be enough real estate for now!

    are all the Creative X-FI cards basicially the same

    I am pretty sure I too have heard this along the way. I think the difference is that the gaming one has its own little... I'll call it an APU (Audio Processing Unit), so it dont use any CPU while your gaming, and the normal audio one usese some shared resources.

    Having some computer issues..

    clear the CMOS and see if that helps. Also, any chance you played with HDDs at all improper jumper settings may (MAY) be a cause.
