Only time I've had Windows skip a bootable dvd is when the burn didn't make a checksum correct copy. You may need to reburn it if you made it via image. Also if you want to nuke the partition completely, you can just make a bootable linux cd or usb (if supported by bios) and use gparted to...

I've never had issue with prime shipping speed. That being said, the free shipping is quite slow if you don't have prime

hiding the folders is mostly to not have an entire screen of shares but alas, if it isn't really possible, then oh well =( Will look in to a NAS solution

Ideally I want to share certain private folders with only my computers, share different folders with certain people who are not always here, share 1 movie folder with another set of people and a separate movie folder with a different set of people. This would require (as far as I know) a minimum...

While that does work, it isn't what I'm looking for as it both requires a lot more accounts on the computer that are only used to share files (my OCD will bug me about it), and it doesn't hide files folders that the clients don't have permission for. It won't let them run/edit the files but the...

is there a way to set just set a simple username/password setup for folders to share it to certain people over a network? Essentially what I would like to be able to do is go to any folder, right click on the folder, hit share with users(or similar button) and then be able to input...

Sometimes I use it has a HTPC (don't want to lug my desktop to the TV room for a movie night). It can't stream over wifi for crap (at least hd video). To store videos, flash drive/usb hard drive is needed. Also you have to use a special build on the ouya forum of XBMC(semper xbmc IIRC) instead...

Secret of Mana

and I am an idiot. Issue resolved. For those interested, the monitor backlight went out. When I tested the other monitor I must've had it on the wrong input or something.

Alrighty, so when I head over to my friends house again, I will first try the computer outside the case (Antec 300, didn't mention it earlier) to see if its a grounding issue. If it still fails then most likely a mobo issue? I will bring up the shoddy PSU info. Also, since i forgot to mention it...

I believe i mentioned it in the first post, I already tried a known working PSU(same wattage) in the computer and it had the same exact issue.

Sorry if i was a little unclear, the motherboard that I believe to be bad has 2 PCI-E slots, both of them do not work with either my friends nor my backup video card. My friends video card works in a separate machine (my old gaming machine) just fine. Since both ports have the issue, I am...

I need a couple of opinions regarding some trouble I am having with hardware on a friends computer. Basically what ends up happening is the computer turns on just fine, all fans and drives/ect... The issue is that the monitor will show its getting a signal but it will just display black. On...
