    Skyrim PC Patch 1.2

    I haven't been able to use favorites if I remap it to another key. I used edsf for movement and so rebind a bit. But that's been a problem since release for me.

    Importing Contacts from Access Database to Outlook...

    I know relatively little about access. I've mostly been a hardware guy, with some network and OS support thrown in. I am a bit out of my depth. How do I go about finding out what you need to know?

    Importing Contacts from Access Database to Outlook...

    I have a client that wants to import the contact information from his Access database into his Outlook. I don't really have much in the way of programming skills, and I'm not quite sure what to do. I know that Outlook will not do this by default. Any suggestions?

    Today's College Students Lack Empathy

    Um, just for the record, economically liberal and pro-choice don't necessarily go together. For example, Catholics. Economically liberal, socially conservative. There's enough things to not like about people without lumping them all together.

    Ikea desk gallery

    I've got the bigger Fredrick with the shelves, and I was wondering how much weight do you guys think the shelves on this thing could support? I've got a TV that weighs about 60 lbs that I'm thinking about setting on the top shelf? If it wouldn't work as is, any ideas to make it work?

    recommendation for clear sounding, good bass headphones

    I just picked up some Grado SR80i's tonight, and would have to say that I am quite impressed with them. I have played all sorts of music through them for about an hour or two tonight, and they definitely feel bassy enough. For example, I am playing Eric B and Rakim at the moment. Mahogany has a...

    Backup Programs, a Samsung S2, and Windows Vista,,,

    Well, I just can't seem to get what I want going out of this Samsung S2 I got. It's a cute little 640 GB USB hard drive, and I'm trying to do a 150ish GB full system backup with it. I tried the software that came with it....for some reason it can't copy windows system files. I tried the backup...

    Problem with the Aluminum backing on a laptop keyboard.

    I was a little irritated with a Sony Vaio and mistreated it a tad when I had to take the whole thing apart just to get to the hard drive. Anyway, I was trying to take the keyboard off and it was being a bit difficult, so the metal backing behind the keyboard got slightly bent in a few places so...

    Samsung S2 640GB Drive and Backing up...

    Well I setup one of these the other day,and set it up to do its real time backup thing. It seems that the backup is ridiculously small, like 6-7gb for 100-150GB on the system drive. It's been a while since I've done any serious backing up...but has compression really gotten that good? The drive...

    Networking in a Condo.

    Since the guy before me who was there, pretty much just stapled the coax cable to the baseboards, I don't think using that kind of thing is going to piss anyone off. I'm not saying it's a bad idea, I'm just trying to weigh all my options.

    Networking in a Condo.

    Well the thing is, There are two laptops and one desktop. The desktop is in the office. Where the line comes in is not my bedroom or office, so it would be a bit of a pain to hook up multiple computers up to my router to transfer files in her bedroom, when I could have everything in the office...

    Networking in a Condo.

    Well as far as I can tell, there are coaxial wall ports in all the rooms. I'm sure it would have been easier to go the cable route instead, but I am one amongst 3 votes, so I got outvoted on pretty much everything in this deal...can you tell? :p 2 women v. 1 guy. I guess it would be possible to...

    Networking in a Condo.

    Well, I recently moved in to a three bedroom condo. I'm the only one who really cares about the internet connection, so I was hoping to set up the U-verse and the new WRT320N i got in the office. Well, it seems I'm not going to get my wish, at least without a bit of work. The U-verse had to go...

    I'm thinking I might get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233098 just to have the added speed to go along with the durability of the version that was last linked...hmmm any of you guys actually own one of these?

    Anyone have any high capactity USB flash drive they are rather fond of?

    I'm hoping for something that is 16 gb or better. For under $100, i really am stuck at 32gb or under. Anything over that generally runs $150 or better, which at that point I might as well just get a eSATA or USB external HD. Put I'm looking for something a bit more portable than that.

    Any modern Icewind Dale/Baldurs Gate Games out?

    This is true, but compare Dragon Age to most of the crap that's come out in the last decade or so, and it comes out smelling like roses.

    Anyone have any high capactity USB flash drive they are rather fond of?

    You can't really find them in stores too often it seems, but I'm in the market for one. I bought a couple 8 gb ones a while back, and one died soon after I bought it and one works fine.... I would like one that's under $100, in fact the closer to 50 the better, but the big concerns are capacity...

    WTB Ikea Jerker or Fredrick

    I'm looking for a Black-brown Jerker or Fredrick of the larger variety, one with the shelves. Any other accessories are desired but not necessary. I am in Houston, Texas and can pick up the desk relatively easy. Most used Jerkers/Fredricks in good condition are going for somewhere upwards of...

    A quick question about Receivers...

    If price is really an issue...should I try to go for a used model? I hear that some people really go for that, but I'm always nervous about potentially inheriting other peoples problems and bad treatment of equipment.

    A quick question about Receivers...

    So, I'm looking for a new setup that's not going to set me back too much...probably 500-1000, definitely hoping for more on the 500 end, but there's some wiggle room. I am going to have a 42" Panasonic HDTV, PS3, and at least one computer in the room. This is going to be in an apartment, so I...

    Anyone know of a Network Neighborhood Replacement...

    Well strangely enough, when I was looking over everything, I found that client for microsoft networks wasn't installed. Well now it is, and the Win 7 Pro 64 machine (Phoenix) can at least see it's own shares, which is an improvement. But I still can't see Archangel (the Windows XP Pro box).
