I'm looking to buy a Nintendo handheld for my son. Let me know which console you have, games / accessories and what you're looking to get for it, including shipping to Alabama. I'm currently open to all of them. I'll begin narrowing it down as I find out what's available.

I have a Windows Server 2003 with a shared directory for payroll. I have permissions on it allowing on the payroll lady to access it. The payroll program on her computer runs directly from the share. I have had the server since like September of 2008. Within the last couple months, she will lose...

I am planning to stripe 2x320gb WD Caviar Blue's (WD3200AAKS) or 2x500gb Seagate 7200.10 flashed with the updated AAM firmware. I currently have a 500gb with only 150gb used. Should I worry about shortstroking or just defrag it every once in a while to keep everything together? I have not...

I am needing a hardware RAID card for 4 SATA hard drives. I will be using Linux and software raid is just too much trouble. It doesn't seem like it plays well with failures and drive swapping either. I will probably configure the drives as Raid 10 (1+0). I want to be able to boot up to the...

The economy isn't allowing me to spend a lot of money on a file server for work, so I'm building my own. I'm going to use an Asus P5BV-E motherboard, quad core CPU, 8gb ram, and 4 x 640gb hard drives. In the future, this machine will likely be a VMware box with increased hard drive numbers. I...

I'll try to describe my situation as best as possible. Also note that there is a shop around here that has experience with VMware. If I need to, I'll contact them. We have 8 offices total. 35 pc's in the main office, 18 pc's in 1 branch office, 8 in another. The other 5 have between 4 and 6...

I am looking to build some linux file servers for a few of our offices. I am needing a 24/7 stable motherboard that is compatible with Ubuntu. I have already set up a guinea pig server just to test out Ubuntu and Ebox platform with Samba module. It works just like I want it to. I am planning...

A pc here at the office had a bad motherboard. I replaced the motherboard, ran Windows repair and am at the logon screen. I click the username and ask the guy for his password. He says it's blahblah, but blahblah does not work. I boot into safe mode to access the Administrator account so I can...

I'm trying to set up DHCP on a new xserve with OS X Server. There are 2 nic's in the machine. The first NIC is hooked up to the DSL modem with the static IP. I'm trying to get the 2nd NIC to server the LAN traffic and all DHCP requests. I was able to set up the DHCP service and actually grab an...

As the title states, the X-com collection ons team for $13.49. It includes: X-COM: Apocalypse X-COM: Enforcer X-COM: Interceptor X-COM: Terror From the Deep X-COM: UFO Defense I'm guessing this is just a weekend deal as the titles are listed at $4.99 if purchased separately...

I'm contemplating buying CoD4, but not sure which system to buy it on. My PC handled the demo well, Core 2, 8800gts 640mb, 4gb ram. Do a lot of people play it on PC? I don't want to buy it and there be no one to game with. I know the Xbox community for the game is healthy. Without the search...

My cable modem was hit by lightning and knocked out my ethernet card as well. My wife picked me up a Linksys LNE100TX from Target, but it isn't supported by Vista. I'll probably have to order one off of the internet that will work with 64-bit unless I get lucky at Best Buy. Do you guys know of...

I am planning a server migration in August from Unix to Windows. The unix box is currently our application and e-mail server. We will be migrating to a Windows Server. I have to figure out what I want to do with e-mail. There will be probably 60 users total. Any of you guys have experience with...

Anyone dealt with these yet? By the end of summer, I'm hoping to purchase some new servers for a domain controller, application server, exchange, and possibly terminal services. These things look pretty awesome. I configured one with 3 modules, 8gb ram per module, quad core Xeon L5410, extra...

I'm folding with an e4300 1.8GHz @ 2.4GHz. Using FahMon 2.3.2a, I'm showing 387ppd. Does this seem accurate? I have 2 console clients running. What am I doing wrong?!

I have built a couple wireless bridges at work with Buffalo WHR-HP-54g's. Since you cannot buy these anymore, what would you folks recommend for using as a bridge? I'm not looking to get into the Cisco Aironet price range. I am willing to use an external antenna though. These devices will be...

I'm trying to disable Spanning tree on a bridged Avaya AP-8. When you disable it, it says you must restart for changes to take effect. I restart and it's still enabled. Any ideas? I'm going to try to update the firmware and see where that gets me. Edit: Crap.. the newest firmware is already...

I had never been serious about folding until I saw that Maximum PC had overtaken the [H]orde for PPD. I had installed the program before, but ran it just that one time and quit. I now have 2 clients set up with a batch file on the desktop to execute both of them. I'll be sure and click it each...

The CEO of the company called me in his office today saying that ALL of his files show a modified date of January 23rd at 6am. I checked event viewer and his computer wasn't even on at this time. The weird thing is this happened with his desktop last year when it was powered off as well. I have...

Right now, I have 2x 1u tripplite SMART500RT on the rack. They are rated at 300w each. Note: I did not buy these.. they were here when I took over the network admin job. One of them is starting to give out, so I just want to bite the bullet and get a good commercial rack UPS. I currently have 3...

I have Fiber internet coming into my main office. The ISP says it's 3mbit up and down. They supply us with a switch that the fiber comes in to. There are 5 active ports on it. I have a Sonicwall 1260 in one of the ports and a basic linksys wireless router in another to provide wireless to guests...

I got a quote for Office 2007 Standard Open Value license. The price for 75 copies was $50,451 for the 3 year agreement. The next 3 years is $25,272 for a 6 year total of $75,723. If I just buy standard retail packs, I can get 75 copies at $350 each for a total of $26,250. The retail licenses...

Working on a computer for a friend and on several pages, www.weather.com for instance, I am getting "Done, but with errors on page" in the bottom corner. It won't load a lot of objects on the page. I can log onto a different profile though and it works. It probably wouldn't be a problem except...

My company has a WEP encrypted wireless bridge set up from our main office to a warehouse on the other side of a 4 lane road. Main office has 25 users and the warehouse has probably 15 computers. The wireless bridge was not my idea and was put into place before I was the sys admin at the...

One of our locations has 8 pc's. There is a Win2k3 domain server here also. Only 4 of the PC's are on the domain. File performance has been terribly slow the last couple weeks and it's not the network. I'd like to rip the server out and replace it with a decent external drive solution. I'm still...

I'm looking for a higher power access point. I plan to mount a 10dbi omni antenna on it to get internet to 2 detatched buildings at one of our locations. I then plan to use some sort of cheaper access point at each building to accept the signal. One remote building will have 3 folks in it and...

Powerbook G4 1.67GHz - from what I can tell, battery is not part of the recall.Coconut battery shows the age as 2 years, with only 37 cycles, 96% capacity. I'm not sure if this is a newer battery or original. I just received the laptop a few days ago. The powerbook works great on AC power...

I'll try to make this quick. We are finally going to start doing budgets here at the company. While looking over bills from our Unix support folks, I see that they are billing us $250/month for services through UltraDNS. We have a website hosted by Bellsouth and host our own e-mail server which...

You know those brown concrete buildings at cable office head ends and under cell phone towers a such? I'd like to look into one of those for the company I'm with. Our server room is currently situated under a large oak tree. It's certainly not an ideal location. Anyone have a link to these...

A coworker brought me a MAG LT982s 19" LCD that would not come on. I pulled the back panel off and checked the power supply. It seems to be getting power everywhere. I'm no electronics expert, but I held the black lead of a multimeter on a common ground and touched several points with the red...

How much would my onboard sound card cripple this Klipsch set? I'm planning on buying them today, but don't want to be disappointed when I hook them up. I'll be going from a 5.1 Dell set I scored on Woot a couple years back for 30 bucks.

Get your mind out of the gutter =P I was cleaning out the warehouse attic here at work and found an old Wang terminal that the company used to use. Just for old times sake, my supervisor cleaned it up and sat it on his filing cabinet. It powered up, but the monitor is all screwed up. Anyone...

Just as the title states.. I'm trying to do cost justification to see whether it's worth buying our toner or signing a maintenance agreement on our desktop printers. The company we deal with does maintenance for 2 cents a page and furnishes all supplies. According to manufacturers yield on...

The phone system we have at the company is roughly 10 years old. It's an NEC Electra Elite servicing about 40 lines. I'm trying to put a plan in place for when this one fails. The phone guy suggested a Nortel BCM 400. I don't know anything about what's out there though. The Nortel will do both...
