    How to network XP and 7 with a switch?

    I got it partly working. I can see the Wind's files on my desktop, but not the other way around.

    How to network XP and 7 with a switch?

    I'm not sure where to even place the files I want to share. Ideally, I could have a folder on the desktop or documents folder of each machine that I could just place files in and share.

    How to network XP and 7 with a switch?

    I would like to network my main desktop (7 x64/Fedora 11) and my MSI Wind (XP) using a five port switch. Currently, I’m able to ping each of the machines, but I’m lost as to how to actually transfer files. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Wireless network without internet?

    I don't really care about internet connectivity on any of them but my main desktop right now. I mainly want to be able to stream media over the netbook. Is it as simple as buying a wireless router and assigning a few IPs?

    Wireless network without internet?

    I'm trying to set up a way to connect my netbook, smartphone, torrent box and main desktop in my home. I can't get broadband, so I'm stuck on dial-up. Is wireless networking possible with only a dial-up connection?

    Can I use my iphone without a sim card

    If I'm not mistaken, it won't work unless there is a SIM in the tray. Even if the SIM is deactivated, it still works.

    I'm from Newport. As far as I can tell, I'm the only PC gamer in my town if you don't include WoW :(

    How Tigerdirect.com ships terabyte HD's

    I would bet that your drive will be fine. If it dies, I doubt the shipping journey had anything to do with it. Like was said earlier in this topic, most HDDs have a very high G force tolerance when they aren't powered on.

    Q6600 or Acer 22" LCD

    Go for the quad. I love mine, and I had an E2160 before it. I have a 22", and I wish I had just paid the extra for a 24" :(

    Doing a clean install of xp, what to install?

    That list looks nice, but personally I wouldn't install Avast and Spybot. I can't stand virus protection programs. How about uTorrent?

    How can I change the default folder view in Vista?

    Every folder, by default, has this view: http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh27/johnrhance/grid.jpg I would like to change it so that this view is the default: http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh27/johnrhance/gridlarge.jpg Can anyone help me do that? I've looked all over the place to no avail.
