    Powder Coating

    Provided the case was already painted before hand, I don't see much of a problem with thickness of the coat coming into play with the fitting of the seperate components, although I bet it would still be a pain in the ass. I was looking at powder coating a case a while ago, as part of my...

    nForce4 & SLI article

    The market for the Vapochill/Prometia very limited, when you consider that the coolers are hideously expensive. Even fewer people would be buying them to cool their graphics cards, and to release a product specifically to do that would be commercial suicide. Even modifiying existing systems to...

    VPN Question.

    Thanks Bosch. Were still planning the VPNs yet, so its going to be a few weeks atleast - we're just trying to get the 2 new servers we've got working first - SBS2003 can be a little whore when it wants to be! You are correct, the two DSL-504s are working as routers and handing out Private...

    VPN Question.

    Thanks! I ain't paying for it so I don't really care if its overkill or not- hell my boss asked me to build a Dual Xeon 2.8 to use as a Terminal Server for a maximum of 10 clients - Overkill++;

    VPN Question.

    I just have a quick question about some VPN setup that I hope you can answer... Anyway, first off, I'm having a second ADSL line installed at home (Leaving me with a 512/256 line and a 4096/256) and the same at work. What I want to do is use the 4Mb line purely for general internet pap...

    Maxtor crashed my server!!

    I've got a Terrabytes worth of Maxtors in this computer alone, and have done for the last year- some of the drives are nearly 3 years old now but I've never EVER had any problems with them.

    Tinker WUs - You may temporarily get them

    I run 4 processes on my Dual Xeon 2.8 w/ HT... all 4 processes have just started trying to chew their way through Tinker WUs... Chewy little buggers :p

    Windows 2003 SBS

    I've applied the patch thats available, and registered for the replacement CD & the free CALs - should be arriving within the next fortnight (hopefully!) Thanks, I'll try that. If you take a trip up to the Distributed Computing forum and read up on the F@H program locking up on some AMD...

    Windows 2003 SBS

    No, but its connected to the same powersource as my computer which has been running perfectly fine throughout this. No, but there is a task named "Collect Usage Data" scheduled for 4:30AM - I'll try removing it anyway. Theres one MEMORY.DMP file around 11:20PM last night, which seems to...

    Windows 2003 SBS

    Why have I missed all this important information? Because I've been awake trying to fix the damn thing for the god knows how long now. As for changing to another operating system, thats a no-go. The servers are being built and setup for a custom software package thats having the final touches...

    Windows 2003 SBS

    I've had enough of this goddamned operating system - first off, Microsuck had the decency to ship a defective 3rd CD - but you can now claim back for a new, fixed, 3rd CD AND get 5 free CALs... woohoo... ...if the damn thing would work properly. The hardware I have it running on now has...
