Yes, I did not touch any of the TPM settings within the BIOS, so the TPM remained enabled. TrueCrypt is not an option, as corporate policy requires BitLocker to be drive encryption.

Ask yourself (or the vendors) why specifically they want two boxes. These are the possible reasons I can think of: High-availability - one server takes over if the first one fails Load-balancing - distribute the processing load equally across the two servers Splitting the SQL Server...

Has anyone ever heard of receiving the dreaded "Missing operating system" error after enabling BitLocker? Any ideas how to repair or work around this error? The Backstory: I have a Bitlocker-encrypted (TPM + pin) spinning 160 GB hard drive running Windows 7 SP1. Newly purchased, there is...

Microsoft Action Pack? A friend of mine used to subscribe with his brother, said it was $300 a year. https://mspartner.microsoft.com/en/hk/Pages/Membership/action-pack-subscriptions.aspx

Windows may not support raw sockets anymore, but nmap still work on Windows. He can just do a port scan of his network on port 53 and see who's listening on that port. It will work fine from Windows. Here's the command: nmap 192.168.1.1-255 -p 53 Insert your own IP range(s) to match...

So at work they want a computer to display certain charts and other information on a large LCD TV. Fair enough, but at the same time security won't permit a workstation to go on the network without it automatically locking after a period of time. Swell. So - I swear I have seen a...

Yes, the permissions you had set before for users will need to be set again. Even if the old username & password are the same, the account SIDs will have changed. That is, unless that ForensIT User Profile Wizard can copy the legacy SID into the SID history of your new Active Directory...

Looking for Shuttle SN95G5 system, barebones, or parts for an SN95G5. Trying to keep my current Shuttle alive! Thanks for the help!

Check your PM, I'm interested in the SN95G5v2.0, thanks!

I recently had a power supply fail in my Shuttle SN95G5. Called up Shuttle, they don't have the power supply for that model anymore :( I thought about upgrading, but would rather keep this system going. It's a PC35I2402 model number. Anyone have one out there? Additionally, if I can...

Howdy! I'm looking for a laptop with a long battery life. It's mainly going to be used for general office-tasks, wireless internet, email. Nothing too taxing. I'm thinking of buying a Dell D420. Does anyone have any comments or pros/cons that they have had with this laptop? Thanks!

I guess I may try this to solve the probem: Convert the NTFS partition to FAT32. Then, in the Windows 2000 machine, convert the the partition back to NTFS.

Well, one possibility would be to create a new user with the name you want, then transfer all the files from 'Owner' over to the new user, and delete 'Owner.' Not ideal I know, but a possibility.

Here's a strange problem that's been confusing me: I have a 160gig Seagate hard drive (storage only, no booting from it) that I have fairly full (149gig partition, NTFS, 18.3gig free space). When I put it in a computer running Windows2000 Professional, fully updated (SP4 + all patches from...

Let's focus on that for a bit! I would make sure to try backing up what is recoverable off the hard drive before you try a fix that might end up causing your friend to lose data. If you are lucky enough to have an interface converter from laptop IDE to desktop IDE or SATA, slave his laptop's...

QFT. I'm still surprisingly happy with my 9800pro

It is rarely worth it to get performance RAM, unless you plan to overclock a fair bit.

Because after a 6600gt, it is fairly likely that the bottleneck will be moved from the graphics card to the CPU. So if the only upgrade is the graphics card, you won't get much more benefit from anything beyond a 6600gt.

Memory errors can result in a program crashing, or perhaps the whole system crashing. And this could put data you are working on at that moment at risk.

Systeminfo works great on XP :) Would there be anything equivalent in Win2000?

I am wondering if there is anywhere that a Windows 2000 or Windows XP computer keeps the date that the computer was started on anywere? I am wondering how long I have been running the computer without restart. thanks!

Putting pagefile on a separate drive is good, but a 2.1gig IDE drive is probably too slow to provide performance boost. You'd probably lose performance.

bump because eclipse is a RAM expert

Ever overclocked these sticks? If so, how high did you get them stable?

Title says it all. I busted a friend's motherboard, and am looking for a replacement. Need a socket A mobo that can run a 1.3ghz Duron and will use PC133 SDRAM. Thanks!

So a friend wanted his fan fixed (i oiled it) and heatsink cleaned. Simple enough, pull the heatsink and wash it up, and oiled the fan and put tape to seal that up. Cleaned both surfaces with isopropyl alcohol, add thermal paste, started placing the heatsink back on. My screwdriver slipped...

Nope. Eclipse has a post here somewhere, but the only reason why you'd want 'fancier' (i.e., lower latency or higher clock speed) RAM is for overclocking the CPU. Don't get fancier RAM just to run it at stock speeds, there's not too much difference between RAMs at stock speeds.

This is the truth. RIVA TNT. 3dfx's Banshee chipset was decent though, but TNT was better.

quite possibly. not guaranteed though.

Download CPUz, run it, and then look under the memory and SPD tabs to find information about your RAM. http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php

improved?

ack, are there still ballistix sticks dying early with concerning frequency? (and i don't mean mhz)

superPI is one of the few applications that is highly sensitive to increased RAM bandwidth, and also lower RAM latencies. But in most applications like (games or audio-video encoding), higher CPU speed will give better performance than aiming for faster RAM.

QFT I run only a 200mhz Pentium with 96mb of RAM in my file server. A Pentium II would be a bit nicer, but a P200 does the job fine enough. If I was running a gigabit network, maybe, but i'm just using 100mbps.

Should not be any significant performance loss. Go ahead and go back to 32-bit winXP.
