Try to use Ad-aware and SpyBot S&D to get rid of this.

I'm stuck with hand-me-down OEM boards from Packard-Bell, and Micron. No recommendation here. :sad:

What http server are you using? I would recommend a SSI (server-side include) if possible.

Could you be thinking of sysedit?

Did you install any drivers that were provided with the card? Does device manager show any issues with the loaded drivers. (If you did install them) Also, please be more specific when naming a topic in the forums here. A title such as "Windows 2k Serial ATA Issues" would probably …

What do you mean by disconnect? Do you mean disconnect the cable? IP addresses usually stay the same when using the same DHCP server over and over. The reason for this is, is that unless your MAC address changes, your IP really shouldn't/won't. That is one reason why cable users …

I think a Mozilla section could be useful. People may have issues with the plugins. "I can't get flash to work in X," or "mozilla-plugger is broken with Y." Also, there are so many add-ins for firefox, that there could be a huge discussion about them. Maybe it wouldn't be …

Yup. Cars and computers are my biggest thing in life. (on the un-living side of things). I guess friends and family for the living. :-P I was going to get a Greddy exhaust for my Civic, but went with a Tsudo instead. Wish I had big money for a nice …

What do you use it for? Is your computer a part of a network, or is it a stand-alone machine?

Can you specify 'modprobe -r bttv' or just 'modprobe' though in the sudoers file? If you can have any user in a 'tvusers' group to be able to 'modprobe -r bttv' using sudo, that would be your safest bet. (I think.) I'm sure you wouldn't want to have everyone be …

This may not be of great help, but those modem + sound-in-one combo cards seem to be nothing but a pain. Sometimes even when used in Windows with the manufacturer's drivers. Which card is this in particular?

Is the mouse that you are using on the machine a USB mouse? Often times with 3rd party format/partition/image tools such as Norton Ghost don't have support for certain types of mice. In this event, either attach a PS/2 mouse temporarily or use the keyboard to navigate around. Use keys …

Does the floppy drive show up in the BIOS, or can you see the drive when the machines POSTs?

I love hot chicks as much as the next guy, but in all fairness, let's not make this too gender specific. :) Otherwise, that sounds like a great idea.

If the software came OEM from Dell, than you can go their support site [url]http://support.dell.com[/url] and enter your service tag for a list of software that is appropriate for your system. If you do not know your service tag, but are using Internet Explorer, then it is possible to let …

I think this thread is dead. Anyone agree? This is the person's only post since October (when they signed up)

I think that many others here will agree. Windows Me is next to worthless. I would recommend upgrading to Windows XP (if you can afford it). An upgrade to Internet Explorer 6.0 may help fix your issues with the script errors. Some pages are written in a way that only …

All I have to say, is "wow." I know that there have been projects in the past to implement 3d effects to different environments, but this seems to be pretty well advanced, and pretty well developed so far. [url]http://wwws.sun.com/software/looking_glass/demo.html[/url]

What about Sparc? ;-)

[QUOTE=TKS]I usually use a shoe horn, some baby oil, and a really big mallet. :p[/QUOTE] But do you prefer a crowbar or a chisel for decompression?:cheesy:

Perl is an excellent language for doing shell work, log parsing, website backends, the list goes on. I wrote a site backend once that updated image galleries, video galleries, news headlines, archives, etc, all using Perl on the backend. Perl fits in so well with databases, apache, Windows, Unix. Perl …

[QUOTE=TheOgre][size=2] (/[b]dev[/b]ice/[b]h[/b]ard[b]d[/b]rive[b]a[/b]partition[b]1[/b] is an easy way to remember it) [/size][/QUOTE] "a" does not mean p[b]a[/b]rtition It's more like: Primary Master: hda Primary Slave: hdb Secondary Master: hdc Secondary Slave: hdd Tertiary Master: hde Tertiary Slave: hdf and so on...

The forums are meant to be used for sharing ideas and helping people out. By starting holy-wars about "Which operating system is cooler" you are shying people away in search of valuable information. Microsoft serves it's purpose in the world just as Linux or any other operating system does. Please …

This depends greatly on what version of Windows you are talking about.

If TallCool1's suggestion doesn't help any. (although it should...) then it is very possible that it is in fact the screen. I have an Inspiron 8200 myself, which is the same chassis style, and have had other such issues with my screen. (Mostly in the hinge sensor for open/close) I …

[QUOTE=Eico]Well, you can directly connect two computers using a parallel to parallel, or serial to parallel cable ...[/QUOTE] I was under the impression that serial to parallel cable would not work. (At least not with the Windows Direct Connection software) Correct me if I am wrong. :)

No reason to be ashamed of old hardware! As long as it posts, it's a usable machine! I too have one of the old Toshiba laptops that was given to me as a freebie, and I absolutely love it. PI-120mhz, 32mb RAM, and 2.0gb HD. Anyways... It is possible to …

I really need to pick up on Mandrake, so I may be wrong, but on every other distro I have used, the proper file to edit is the XF86Config, not XF86Config-4. /etc/X11/XF86Config for example. Try that one, and tell how it works

I don't have much Mandrake experience, but you may want to upgrade your kernel to 2.4.25. Many issues have been fixed since the 2.4.22 release ranging from driver issues, to exploit fixes. I myself have had issues compiling kernel drivers, and an update to 2.4.25 took care of my build …
