So my Internet went to crap and decided to check my speeds. The results from the test was 32ms ping / .33 Download / 10 Upload. I'm suppose to have 50 Mb Down / 10 Mb Up. I called Comcast and I told them that something is throttling my download speed. The only thing the rep could do is ask me to...

This is a 2-part question. The first question, is there another way to get into "Audit mode" beyond when the computer first boots up into the welcome screen where you put the computer name with the ctrl+shift+F3 command? I am setting up a default profile and this was the only way mentioned in...

How do you remove the other domain from showing up in the "Log on to" option? I am doing a Exchange lab where part of the setup for AD told me to setup a 2-way forest trust. Now when the client XP machine goes to log on both domains are listed. I tried Google and can not find anything on how...

I think I'm going to install pfSense in as a VM and use VMware. From my research, VMware is compatible with any wireless adapter as long as it has a USB connection. Correct me if I'm wrong on that part. So I'm in need of a high-gain G / N USB wireless adapter. I'll use that as my access point...

I'm trying to load esxi 4 in workstation 6.5.3. Each time I tried to load it up I kept getting a lvmdriver error. So I thought it was the on-board nic so I bought the Intel Pro GT off newegg. I'm still getting the same error so I decided to do more research. I found that you can press alt+f12...

My current rig... E6600 Big Typhoon CPU cooler Arctic Silver 5 ASUS p5w dh deluxe When I overclocked the CPU over 2 years ago I remember my temps being 35 - 39 degrees C. After a couple of days of burning in, the temps was always within the normal range. Since then I only monitored the...

So I purchased a new 42" HD TV for my bedroom yesterday. I have a spare laptop that has a HDMI connection. I'm just trying to figure out if I need a USB TV Tuner (1 coaxial port) or a External TV Tuner (2 coaxial port). I originally thought that I had to have a External TV Tuner with 2 coaxial...

Did I put the Big Typhoon on backwards or can the 3 pin power cord work in the 4 pin cpu fan connector? This is the first time I have built a computer with a 3rd party cpu fan so be easy on me.

http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/display/20060525104034.html I searched the forums and didn't find anything related, if so sorry. I was thinking of holding off for a DX10 video card but now I don't know. I'm not to excited about having to buy Vista just to have DX10. My plan was to wait for...
