    First attempt with Mini ITX

    My father has asked if i would put together 3 computers for his office. Doesn't have to be something massive, but would like to get 5-6 years out of these machines (hence why i've included an ssd to keep them peppy). I used mwave.com instead of newegg.com since the prices seemed to be overall...

    dual voltage 2.5" hdd

    I have a Panasonic Toughbook that has a dead hard drive. I thought all drives were created equal and i could just throw another one in there. I was wrong and discovered that Toughbooks use 2.5" drives with 5V and 3.3V. Anyone know where i can get one of these kinds?

    What are you doing for your Win2000 machines?

    Since M$ isn't making a KB928388 for anything W2K related, what are you doing to make sure your Windows 2000 workstations and servers are going to be updated? Flat out, i've been trying to use a combination IntelliAdmin's patch and Group Policy, but i'm not having any luck. How about you?

    Active Directory on Win2000 Servers

    Isn't it true that the switch from mixed to native mode only affects NT4 Domain Controllers and *NOT* NT4 file/application servers? What i'm getting at is that my company thinks it is a bad idea for us to go to native mode since we have 4 NT servers still on the network. They are not domain...

    I can encrypt files fine after importing the keys i need. However, i am unable to decrypt them. I can extract them using PGP (the gui version for Windows), but when i use gpg i get this error: c:\>gpg --decrypt "c:\crap\century.doc.gpg" gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit RSA key, ID FFF1B3EC...

    XP x64 and Netware Client

    Novell doesn't make a 64-bit client (as of May 2006). Does anyone have any thoughts how to map a drive to a Netware server without using their client? The 32-bit client is very incompatible with XP64: IPX doesn't install, services don't start, NWGINA doesn't display during login, etc.

    Smallest PDA-like device on the market

    Some of you may remember back in the 90s the Star TAC. One of the accessories was a snap-on Contact Organizer that could also work without being attached to the phone itself. Is there anything out there, not necessarily a PDA (they are quite bulky compared to this), that can hold a couple...

    adding files into SQL 2005

    Turns out it isn't as easy as i thought it would be. I'm comfortable enough adding data to tables (age, height, weight, favorite color, salary, etc), but adding actual files to tables has not been something i've done before. I assume i have to get an INSERT statement to take a file (.jpg...

    Gameport / Joystick / DB-15 adapter

    Is there any such adapter that can adapt a DB-15 to USB? I can't get the device to come with a USB, it is a foot pedal for medical transcriptionists and *only* comes with the typical gameport plug that would normally go in a soundcard. If there is no direct adapter, is there a PCMCIA card that...

    VeriLUM

    I'm doing some research for a new radiology program that my hospital has acquired for a rather expensive project. The the quad display workstations need to use grayscale monitors for viewing the X-Ray images. It has been suggested that we use something to keep the displays calibrated. So I'm...

    Inventory Audit for Active Directory

    Is there any tools for Active Directory that will scan all computers (that are turned on at least) in the domain and build a report with the hardware and software installed? My organization was looking at Novell ZenWorks, but that would require a separate server. Is there any kind of utility...
