Win 7 clients, Need to populate alternate IP with current DHCP assignment (I believe everything else will be static). It appears that PowerShell is the only way to get at the alternate IP config variables. We are wrestling with a TechRepublic PS module that could be the modified. I used …

For those old enough to know, civility has become nearly extinct over the past few generations. These are the same generations who decided that for more than 5,000 years, children had been raised WRONG; and they knew more than the entire collective experience of homo sapien. Eliminating real punishment is …

[QUOTE=jaepi;508419]Let's create a story out of our wildest imaginations. I'll start it out then you continue. The rules... The last poster should have a hanging ending of his line so that the next poster can continue. Here we go. Once upon a time, there lived a mighty prince who loves …

Welcome to the new moronity. The kids are picking this stuff up from: The movies; that you buy them and allow them to watch. The music; that you buy them and allow them to listen to. The games; that you buy them and allow them to play. The advertising; that …

First choice: absolutely random and lots of digits. Something that even you can't figure out or remember. Second choice: the best combination of "tricks" you can acquire/create/steal that works; accessable to you, but not accessable nor guessable to anyone or anything else. combine: Something you have. Something you know. Something …

The first couple of things that I'd do. 1. Grab the portable version of ClamAV (portableapps.com has one). It doesn't "fix", just identifies problems. But it's another perspective, so to speak. 2. Run a pass with Microsoft's live OneCare scanner [url]http://www.microsoft.com/protect/products/computer/safetyscanner.mspx[/url] Like it or not, it's Bill's system. And he …

My "ace" for almost 30 years has been, helping people do what THEY want, not what I think they "should" want. This is a "profession" with few "professionals"; most are tinkerers, and nothing more. They are oblivious to the difference in "considerations" between their warcraft box and an Exchange Server. …

Thanks for the link jbennet! When I've needed to do this, I've done it manually. Command line may not be pretty, but it works. Thanks again,

Your drive has developed some (at least one) bad spots. It happens to laptop drives far more than desktops. "Best" thing to do? Replace the drive. You may want to also grab a $10-15 USB enclosure and use this drive for less critical tasks, such as a BIG OLE' jump …

I'm not really clear on what you've done and I don't know what you mean by powersource. So, from scratch; 1. verify power at the surge protector; if not certain, plug a lamp or something into it. 2. when you turn computer on, does the power or drive light come …

I play the part of a HID. But it's a cameo role. so you've probably never heard of me.

First step would be to hook up an external monitor. Since you are running blind, press the monitor selection hot-key (likely, but definitely, Fn+F4) several times, pausing a few seconds between each. If that works, either pay more than it is worth to have the LCD replaced or back up …

If you want to know the SPECIFIED clock speed of your CPU, you have to use an Intel. I learned this the hard way. I attempted to get the same info for (2) Athlon 64's I have. They do not publish this spec for anything older than dual-cores. I was …

Wanna avoid ALL threat of a security attack? Write your own O.S. With zero installed base, I promise nobody will attack it; promise. Wanna buy a system that is cheap, has oodles of software that is cheap/free, and doesn't require any technical knowledge to use? Preditors lie in wait. Place …

What, when all is said and done, do you NEED to know. Pass a final? Question the instructor A LOT on what they think is "important" and learn it (it WILL be on the final). Use the knowledge? Screw (or at least back-seat) the grade, and find out what you …

Jishnu, If Anonymous won't give their name, how do you know they aren't part of the 51%?

If "browsing" is the only difficulty, I would try other browsers. Firefox has a portable version, so it wouldn't even alter your system. Opera has that AND a "one use" true executable that doesn't even write to your profile folder. I believe that 1by1 or 1on1 is also zero footprint. …

If you are reading this on the LCD Monitor, then it's probably a driver issue. A) See if you can boot into safe mode (press F8 at the Windows logo) If that gets you into a Windows session, start by resetting the screen resolution to 1024X768 That will allow you …

I have not gone back and read the entire context of this disagreement, however. I can no longer discuss anything political with anyone because of this nonsense. [QUOTE=Narue;493030]>one can speak negatively about someone without being abusive. The problem is that "abusive" is a very subjective description. I don't consider my …
