I'm not sure what work was done for this, but a guy comes into the store where I work about twice a month with a bucket of potatoes saying "you got a box for these? I'm late on my payment." My boss...

I would guess there is about a 99% chance you don't have a virus. Especially if you update your NAV definitions. If you don't update them, I'd still say it wasn't a virus. Like NooNoo and others...

After playing around a lot with my RAID config (Promise Fasttrak TX 2000 with 4 80 Gig Maxtors) I've settled on a RAID 0 C: drive and a RAID 1 D: drive. I was running a 0+1 array, but there was a...

While 700 feet is probably way too long, it may actually work. You mention that file and print sharing still work. Have you tested network throughput over that cable? SiSoft Sandra will test...

I don't think the person is dumb or ignorant. They're just new to computers, and have a LONG way to go. Getting back to the car subject: does your car have a vacuum pump? Maybe it does, maybe not....

I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but the MS knowledge base has really gone down hill over the last month. They just changed all the articles and removed the prefix letters to make them...

My dad is a mechanic. They have to deal with even worse.

This is just an example, and may not be any worse than your story. He just did a repair on a car that was rear-ended and had some...

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "correctly support NTFS." Ghost 2002 and 2001 can both clone an NTFS partition without a problem, but what they can't do is save an image file onto or read...

I have ghosted drives containing windows XP onto other hard drives many times with no problems. It sounds like you may either have a faulty new hard drive (not too likely because you say you used...

Dude, you say that you bought XP home and were able to install it, but later say you don't have the CD. How did you install it in the first place? Who did you "buy" it from? If you have your...

this problem is specifically addressed by MS at support.microsoft.com. Your problem deals with an improperly created winini.ini file. Search for it on the hdd in the c:\windows dir (maybe...

You may try clearing the CMOS and booting. Sometimes that will work. As a sort of a last-ditch-effort I've also removed the system battery and tried booting with it out. I've probably tried this...

You may try turning on "floppy drive seek" in the BIOS. All though I doubt the problem is related to the floppy drive, this option will give you a 1-2 second delay during POST. If the problem is...

I sure do know what you mean. Man that is annoying. Some people must think we are clueless. Come on, I don't make a living fixing computers because I don't know what makes them have problems.

I live in a rural area where wired broadband is not available, so the only option is wireless. I'm using a Cisco aeronet 350 series card, and get about 1.5 mbps throughput being 25 miles from the...

I was looking for some cheap feet to get my case off the floor, I thought about the same type of casters, but was worried that I wouldn't be able to set the case on a table. It would suck if someone...

A local print shop may be able to help you, they can probably do a laser print on the right kind of paper with adhesive backing. I would definately make sure it was exactally what I was after before...

if CD-ROMS get much faster, they may need to begin rotating the head and holding the disc stationary. It could be done with the right balancing, or a rotating mirror or fibre-optic. Maybe they...

I'm using generic scotch-brite scouring pads for filters, they work really well, and I just vaccum them off about once a month without even taking them out of the case. The inside of the case is...

How about when people come in and ask for a "cheap used 19" monitor." Yah, i've got one and I'm just dyeing to get rid of the thing. "You got any used state-of-the art stuff I can buy, cause I'm...

Hey, i wouln't be at all suprised if there were plenty of hidden stuff in windows. You never can be sure. It seems that MS (and AOL) both want to take over the whole world. Well, I guess this is a...

I didn't suspect anyone would send it to me. I did purchase this card in a computer store, the one where I work. The problem is that they ordered it in special for me, and I don't want to create a...

I recently purchased a MSI video card, MS-StarForce 820(GeForce2 Pro based). The problem is that the software CD is damaged and I can't install the MSIDVD player. The only file that seems to be bad...

the heatsink on my TNT2 card is just big enough to screw on a Pentium 2 heatsink fan. You should be able to find a 486 fan that will fit your Banshee. Maybe you'll be lucky, and it will have a big...

When ever I come up against a tough one like this, I do my "never do this to your registry" trick. I'm serious, back up your registry before even reading this. (P.S. I figured this trick out by...
